andi2ducky says "Dinner Impossible is possible as a t.v. show" about Dinner Impossible

I think Dinner Impossible is a good type of reality show. It was fun to watch and see what he could come up with in a short amount of time. I am not sure that he was the best man for the job, but he put a lot of hard work into the challenge.

I guess we are getting a new host for the show and I have not seen that one yet. I like the idea, more than the person, so it will be fun to watch future episodes. I think it will also give me ideas for doing potlucks or dinners at the last minute as well!

NattScatt says "Dinner Impossible, I think Not. Robert Irvine Impossible--Yeah" about Dinner Impossible

I've watched several episodes of Dinner Impossible on Food-Network and I must agree with the general consensus. The show has a great pretense, but, the host is just too much. I, too, expected a little something different when I first saw the show. Yes, some of the challenges are interesting and the idea of the show is a winner. Chef Irvine takes all the fun out of it with his overbearing, self centered antics and the abuse of his "volunteer" staff. Besides, how "impossible" can it be with food, pans, money and staff available to help you? He is what makes "dinner" impossible.

Ask any busy, working, married mother of more than three children what Dinner Impossible is and they will tell you it's nothing like the Food Network show. Try getting four kids dressed, fed and ready for school, the husband off to work, the dog walked and making sure you get to your eight hour a day five day a week job on time. Now come home from work, help with homework, after-school activities...

Okay so I admit I am addicted to cooking shows...and while my favorite (for being most informative and fun) is Alton Brown's Good Eats I LOVE Robert Irvine. I mean come on he is buff and very good looking and good chef...I like most of what he puts together and he is really resourceful...so if you are looking to kill 30 minutes on a Wednesday night (or if youre like me and Tivo it) the watch food network and see if Robert can overcome another challange....

stef42678 says "Intersting Food Challenge" about Dinner Impossible

I love to watch the Food Network. Dinner Impossible is not my favorite show, however it seems to be the most unique. It is not like the other shows where you watch to learn to cook and are invited into the lives of the Food Network chefs, it is more like a reality program. The host is Robert Irvine and he is giving unique challenges to pull ingredients together to host a fantastic meal. Some of his challenges have been being stranded on a desert island, or feeding the entire population of the staff at the Mall of America's. I like watching him try to control from cracking under the pressure and he always makes unique dishes. This show is not only interesting, but it is fun to root for the host to overcome the challenges....

kid-kansas says "Arrogant Chef or a food Mastermind? You decide." about Dinner Impossible

kid-kansas — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 22:02:22 GMT

I have always enjoyed cooking and trying to come up with a great meal with little ingredients to work with. When I first saw Robert Irvine's Dinner Impossible I was interested in seeing something along the lines of what I have been through.

The Show

Robert Irvine is given a challenge to prepare a meal with only certain ingredients for x number of people in a limited amount of time. He has to work with only the equipment that is at the place where the challenge takes place or find nearby equipment he can beg or borrow the use of. The big challenge is making a gourmet meal out of not so gourmet ingredients, such as stadium food.

He is given a staff to work with and sometimes they may be children or a staff that only prepares fast food. It is interesting to watch him get through some of the challenges he is presented with.

On one episode of Dinner Impossible he was to serve volunteers for the Katrina Hurricane effort. He had to cook outside on grills and also in Red Cross trailers with......

mariposa326 says "Fun and different" about Dinner Impossible

mariposa326 — Mon, 31 Dec 2007 08:12:28 GMT

The idea for this show is so different and interesting. It's neat to see the challenges that he gets and how he gets them done, and it's always shocking if he doesn't get a challenge completed. I'm always sad to see if the episode is going to be a repeat!...

BananaBrat says "A very interesting show to watch" about Dinner Impossible

BananaBrat — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 18:46:22 GMT

Dinner Impossible is a very good show, I enjoy watching it very much.. I agree Robert Irvine can seem a little rude and impossible sometime. But that is what makes the show the show it is.. It is pretty cool the way the challenges vary from a ice hotel, to a pastry shop, to feeding soldiers and many other things.. It is not like every other cooking show out there, the writers and producers came up with a different, unique show that is fun to watch......

LadyLunaXO says "Dinner not impossible for Robert" about Dinner Impossible

LadyLunaXO — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 23:41:54 GMT

I am probably one of the few people that enjoy watching Dinner: Impossible. Robert Irvine my seem rude, arrogant, and self-centered... but, anyone on a time schedule that has to cook a huge meal would be a little on edge. I enjoy seeing everyone go to their breaking point- only for it to calm down once everything is done and completed! Also, there are some episodes that bring tears to your eyes- such as Irvine cooking for the military men about to be sent overseas. That's just tear jerker all in itself!...

ScorpJen says "Good show with a great premise" about Dinner Impossible

ScorpJen — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 07:40:33 GMT

once in a rare while, yes, irvine can be a little annoying. however, overall hes a cool guy who knows how to get things done. He's been in the military and run kitchens before and knows that you can't always be the 'nice guy' to get the deadline met on time. Kudos to him honestly for all hes done and the cool things he has come up with....

redstarr says "Irvine is so irritating to watch he ruins a fun premise" about Dinner Impossible

redstarr — Mon, 03 Sep 2007 21:11:18 GMT

Dinner Impossible could be a fun show if it weren't for its star chef Robert Irvine. The premise of the show is to give Irvine incredibly hard cooking challenges and short time limits and see if he can complete his goal in time. Some challenges have been things like replicating an authentic colonial banquet, cooking a gourmet meal for thousands of soldiers before they ship out to war using only food available on base, cooking a gourmet meal at a baseball stadium using only food available at the stadium, cooking a meal inside an ice hotel, and cooking a meal at a spelling bee using ingredients from every letter of the alphabet. The challenges, while ultra difficult, could make for entertaining television. While for the most part totally unrealistic (even the realistic challenges are given an unrealistic time table for completion), they are creative and thought provoking (What would I make with every letter of the alphabet? How would I make do with only baseball stadium food?). ...
