Talk:List of Good Eats episodes

This is one of the most useful pages on the internet

Should there be a list of the references for each title?

It seems that most episode titles are either puns or references to other works. Should another column be added explaining the references? --Kaosblaze (talk) 21:36, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm against it. Dmforcier (talk) 18:59, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

What if I were to add links to the recipies?

Does anyone think that would be a problem? i don't know if that would be violating the formating rules for episode pages

To individual recipes? IMO it would be impossible. Few recipes are mentioned in the episode list so there's nothing to hang links on. Second, given a link to the recipe site (which should be in the References section), it's easy enough to find a specific recipe. And aren't they listed by episode there anyway?

Adding an Equipment column to the tables

Of as much interest to me as the techniques are AB's (and W's) equipment criteria. Since some episodes have no such segment and the equipment discussed can't always be inferred from the topic - for instance, in which episode does he discuss spatulas? - adding a column for this makes sense.

I've edited the Season 1 table as an example. (Note that I haven't filled in the cells yet, and the "Ice Cream Freezers" entry may be bogus.)

Opinions? What about the column title?

Production Number vs. Air Date

Back in October '09 the episode numbering was changed from Air Date to Food Network's production number. While it now follows the order on foodnetwork.com, it conflicts with the Good Eats The Early Years book and original air dates. Any thoughts on that? ferndave (talk) 15:45, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

The episode numbering was changed where, here? What exactly is in conflict with the book? IMO the episodes should be numbered (here) by the production number and ordered (here) by air date. Dmforcier (talk) 20:06, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Yes, back on October 4th of '09. Check the history notes for the exact revision. The problem is that the episode number and order given on foodnetwork.com is sometimes different from the air dates. While book appears to order them by the air dates. The book doesn't list the air date, but does follow the old list order. Should we use the air date order, but add the foodnetwork episode number like this for example?

#-Ep. Code	Title	Featured Food/Topic	Equipment	Originally Aired
01–EA1A01	"Steak Your Claim"	Steak	Cast iron skillet	7 July 1999 (1999-07-07)
