EndedScripted showComedy

A comedy series about Emeril Lagasse, a chef with a cooking show, which all too often keeps him away from his neglected wife Nora. His agent, Jerry McKenney, offers him a male point of view in a workplace filled with strong, opinionated women, including producer Cassandra Gilman, stage manager Melva LeBlanc, food stylist B.D. Benson, and television executive Trish O'Connell. Emeril's teenage son James works as an intern on his show.

The Sidekick

A quick bit of on-air male bonding inspires the Food Channel to push Emeril into a new type of cooking show with a new sidekick: Jerry. However, after he receives a taste of fame—including some commentary from his "celebrity friend" and guest star, Burt Reynolds—Jerry's ego "kicks it up a notch," much to the annoyance of Cass, Melva, and B.D.
