I want to see all the originals again...the American ones don't have enough FLAIR and I especially miss the program when ALL SEVEN Iron Chefs were introduced to thunderous applause!
THE ORIGINAL PROGRAMS ROCK!!!!!!
I think Iron Chef America is a wonderful reminder of the original production. BUT...more people need to become familiar with the original Fuji Network series!!!!
DVDs in 2007!!!!!
The original Japanese Iron Chef is one of my favourite shows. My bouyfriend & i both love watching it and I would love to get my hands on a DVD collection.
That would be my favorite X-mas gift! I cant get enough of this show, and now that Foodtv canada stopped playing and and is only playing the American one, i have been going throught IronChef withdrawl!
A DVD of the Japanese verison would be great! Everyone who wants the Japanese version back on SBS (the American version is terrible) email SBS (comments@sbs.com.au ), we are hoping they will show it again in Feb once the American series has run its course.
I'm 4 and i really like blue iron chef.
I'm so unhappy because I no longer can watch him. I'm in Sydney and the show has been replaced with the American iron chef :(
To me, Iron Chef defines kitch cool! Extreme skill combined with over the top Japanese television, some sports, some culture, some comedy, and you get this brilliant peice of art/pop culture.
My wife and I have spent many an evening enjoying the original series.. please make it available on dvd.. the american version does not even come close and is absolutely un-watchable!
