My favorite show is Top Chef on Bravo (Wednesdays). It's a chef elimination competition, the perfect combination of food and (sometimes) interpersonal drama.

I can't always stay up to watch it anymore, though (or any of the abovementioned shows either). I'm two and a half episodes behind on Top Chef, and hope to catch them in reruns.
