I like Iron Chef America, except it's so toned down, the chefs are um... not as acclaimed/talented (except Morimoto), and it's so much easier to win. The dishes tend to be very similar as well. :(
My only problem with Iron Chef is the constant use of the "Big Three": caviar, truffles, and foie gras. It's like you see them in every battle.
the melennium cup episode is non exisistent in the united states even though i would love to see how the hell food network got ahold of it because that's how they got the premise for iron chef america but yes obivusly food network has a copy the melennium cup is like a 3 hour show and has 3 battles
FreedomValentine, I don't know if you're joking but bell peppers aren't spicy they're sweet. Whatever Kaga-san's reason for the face and his little body wretch, it is simply the funniest thing I have ever seen, LOL!!
Why not add some more episodes to the Iron Chef series? Including the 2002 Japan Cup which begins with a mock memorial service for Chairman Kaga. When I heard they'd come out with that, I couldn't believe my mind!
Man I wish they would still show these... Iron chef america just sucks! Like no kidding its the dumbest thing ever! I want the original back!!! I know the one guy died but dont ruin a good thing,,,
I agree Cheshirecat1582, the American version is pathetic. The host is trying too hard to be like the original Japanese guy. And Bobby Flay is one angry SOB, must be a NY thing.
i love chairman kaga

This is the best so far. I like the fact the challenger (Chosensha) was calm yet very serious. I wanna give it a four and a half Stars.

I believe the challngers in Iron Chef America can use their own assistants. Maybe that's why they win more often than the challengers in Japan.
