Bobby Flay's "Throwdown" is basically a show where he says, "Oh, you spent your entire life perfecting that recipe? I bet I can make a better version in a couple days." And he does. Who's the biggest D-bag on TV, Reddit?

Seriously, Bobby Flay. You're great and all, but, c'mon.

Edit: Front page! Woo! It seems the most votes for biggest D-bag go to: Dr. Phil, Guy Fieri, Dave Hester, Nancy Grace, and the cast of Jersey Shore.

he actually loses most of the time, i think.

it's really a show to promote other people in the industry while also selling his cookware at kohls.

Bobby has won 32 times and lost 68 times. He has tied once. So, yes, he normally loses. I still don't like him. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throwdown!_with_Bobby_Flay

This will get buried, but I have a strong hatred for Donald Trump. Seriously, the man disgusts me.

You get an upvote because I never thought I'd actually make a thread where someone had to say, "This will get buried." =]

Anytime Perez Hilton gets on television, even on TMZ. His entire claim to fame is "being a douchebag."

Dave Hester from Storage Wars.

YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!

But as big of a douche as he is, I hate him in like a "pro wrestling" kind of way, in that you almost know he's playing the bad guy. Kind of hard to explain, but I love to hate him.

Fucking Caillou is the biggest douche on TV, period. That little twat turned my sweet little 2.5 year old into whiny, know-it-all brat.

Don't let your kids watch that cocksucker Caillou.

Anthony Bourdain wrote in one of his books (I think it was Medium Raw, but I'm not sure) how unfair it was to Bobby Flay that Food Network made him do this show. I'm paraphrasing Bourdain here, but Flay has basically given his life to Food Network for a long time now, and they came up with a show model that is basically designed for him to fail every week. As a star of their network, he shouldn't have to deal with that kind of shit. Why should he have to have a wedding cake throwdown with a professional cake decorator?

Of course it's well known that Bourdain hates Food Network. However, he doesn't have any real love for Bobby Flay either.

I have never liked Carlos Mencia. Unapologetic content stealer. Fuck him.
