Alton Brown Announces End of ‘Good Eats’ Series
After 249 episodes, Good Eats is ending, reports the Chicago Tribune. Brown announced the news on Twitter:
G.E. fans, I’ve decided to cut the half hour series at 249 eps. There will be 3 new 1 hour eps this year and that’s it. But mourn not. New things brew on the horizon…”good” things.
The show, which started in 1999, was always so good at combining food science, humor, and excellent recipes. While Food Network will continue to show reruns, the last new half-hour episode, which was on noodles (Episode 249 official title: “Use Your Noodle 5”) aired last week.
