I caught her show quite a bit in 2020-21 while teleworking during peak COVID. She actually seemed happy and quite content doing the show from home with her husband in their kitchen. I think she is over being in front of studio audience and dealing with celebrities. Can't say I blame her, Im a homebody too.

And other very long running daytime shows are ending this spring too.

I read an interview article about RR and the interviewer said they had drinks together and that RR can really handle her liquor.

Her talk show seemed really vapid, but it's daytime TV. Why is daytime TV so dumbed down in this day and age? Were there ever that many stay-at-home mothers who could actually watch daytime TV?

R70, as far as I know, Letterman had nothing to do with choosing Colbert. The decision was up to CBS executives.

Jay Leno definitely had nothing to do with choosing Fallon as his replacement. By the time Leno retired it was just assumed that Fallon was going to take over. Lorne Michaels is how Fallon was in position to land The Tonight Show. NBC originally didn't want Fallon to take over as host for Conan O'Brien's late show. But Lorne Michaels was the executive producer for Conan's show and threatened to have nothing to do with the replacement show if they didn't pick Fallon as the host and so NBC relented.

And Johnny Carson wanted Letterman for his successor. Not Leno.

Hosts often don't pick their replacements for the most part.

by Anonymousreply 79March 5, 2023 7:49 PM

R76 No and yes.

Rachael Ray was scouted by the Food Network, and she came by that honestly. Her mother worked in the restaurant industry, and Ray worked throughout her whole life in different food-service venues, including restaurants and grocery stores where she sold products (like Bethenny Frankel was shown doing in the first Housewives season). At one of the gourmet grocery stores, she created a cooking class called 30 Minute Meals. It did well and it turned into a local TV station cooking segment gig with the same name. That led to a book deal, and then she went on a national morning show, and from there she was given 'Rachael Ray's 39 Minute Meals' on the Food Network.

So she really worked for it and her series was her own creation. Her schtick was her manic, almost screaming delivery, making a meal in 30 minutes, neologisms like 'spoonula' and 'EVOO,' and claiming that anyone can cook but she isn't capable of baking because it requires exact measurements and she pathologically can't do anything that exacting.

She basically created herself into Martha Stewart's working-class sloppy counterpart who made cooking seem fun and haphazard and perfectly fine when imperfect.

I know how well it worked because my dad has made a lot of her recipes and he approaches them just as she demonstrates them, with a cavalier I-probably-will-mess-this-up-but-let's-give-it-a-shot attitude that I don't think he would have otherwise. He makes little stacked eggplant things that seem a bit fussy to make but he doesn't see the process as fussy, whereas I'm sure if Martha made them with 'ONLY the perfect, farm-fresh Italian aubergine drained to just the right bittersweet toothiness with a touch of the most excellent sea salt,' he wouldn't ever watch that much less consider bothering with trying a recipe. Martha's approach is always 'if you don't get it just right, you will fail, and everyone will notice,' and Rachael's is like a pinball in a kitchen that zips around and says, 'Oh, why not give it a shot! I've messed these up SO many times, and ya know what? Even if they look like trash, they're gonna taste amazing!'

But then Oprah started having her on as a guest and Oprah annexed Rachael as a sub-Oprah brand.

Like all the Oprah Gurus™️ (Suze Orman, Drs Oz and Phil, the gay fitness, product sales and design guys), she got a column in every issue of Oprah's magazine, and then the merchandizing began.

Ray was given her own cooking magazine, her own syndicated talk show, her own cooking lines of silicone utensils and pots and pans, bedding and other home goods, eventually her own dog food, which seems like a questionable choice for someone whose career is based in cooking human food.

Someone commented on Rachel's stringy hair, it's obvious she's suffering from female pattern hair loss, which is basically diffuse hair loss. Rachel's hair looks so stringy and flat because it's thinning, not because it's dirty. When she first hit TV, she had much thicker hair.

There are so many ways of getting around this, I guess she doesn't care. Rachel could wear a topper hair piece or just hire a better hairstylist who knows how to deal with thinning hair.

She made bourbon bacon balls once. She put them on a skewer, and devoured one, while continuing to talk. The belch never came...on air, anyway.

It's probably a vanity project for the husband. Does anyone know if he was a successful attorney when he met her?

R100 claims the $10 million is the husbands money. Sure Jan! Could he have earned that much as a lawyer? He certainly didn't earn it as a rock singer. His band is unknown.

He's also listed as a producer, of what Rachel's show? loooool. There were a few films listed, but they too, were not any sort of successful films. Exactly how did he earn $10 million?!

That $10 million must surely be Rachel's money.

The RR money train never ends.

When a series old episodes are repeated after a show goes off the air, do the rest of the people who worked on the show also get residual payments?Highly doubtful.

I'm sure the $10 million net worth of the husband came from Ray. He's her entertainment attorney and apparently has experience in the field. Yes, I'm sure she overpaid him.

[quote] I thought her worst recipe was the chicken cooked with dried apricots. I made it, followed it to the letter and it was atrocious.

I wouldn't trust many of Rachael's recipes. I like to eat dried fruits ... when they're dried (nicely chewy and concentrated in flavor). I hate it when they get hydrated (like raisins in a cake) and it's like eating a lesser version of a fresh piece of fruit.

To lose one's wallet in a sex club is certainly unfortunate. To lose a testicle begins to look like carelessness.

Another of her 'recipes' - Graham Cracker Crust Cake. She lined the bottom of a tin with graham crackers to fit, then put gummy bears into a custard filling, and layered it with egg and cocoa mixture. It looked good if you eliminated the gummy bears.

I've got a few of her original 30-Minute Meal recipes in my rotation, the shrimp bowls and pancetta shrimp and a chicken fajita tortilla soup, and they're good. When I was browsing her website after the show was over though I noticed a lot of recipes were just junk. Looked at it just now and the only good recipe out there was a guest recipe from Giada!

I loved how "creative" she could be adapting one basic dish, like Buffalo Chicken Wings, and spin off a whole series of delirious filth like Buffalo Chicken Wing Burger; Buffalo Chicken Wing Cheese Dip; Buffalo Chicken Wing Mac 'n Cheese; Buffalo Chicken Wing Lasagna; etc. etc.

OMG she made something called Bolero Sauce for wings, too. It was sour cream, cream cheese, pimento, A1 sauce and salsa from Chi Chi's, mixed together.

I don't think her husband lost a testicle at a sex club, I believe it was surgically removed using a Rachael Ray tomato knife shortly after he returned home following an evening out.

We think the dog may have eaten it.

You actually think RR makes those business decisions all by herself? How naive are some people? RR likely has a very savvy management team behind her.

by Anonymousreply 155March 11, 2023 3:38 AM

Yes, but someone needs to realize they need a savvy management team, so props to her.

That's not always the case. Not at all. Lots of good ideas fall by the wayside because the talented person doesn't always surround themself with a talented team.

It's obvious, someone saw her potential, then latched on to Rachel to guide her career. It happens all the time. I work in the music industry, most musicians are utterly clueless about the business end of things, most can't market themselves. It's the same for many other talented people, in and out of showbiz.

Not every talented person has a business mind or are aware of how to go about marketing their talent.

I remember that Enquirer article about the husband's spitting fetish at r74. The published a picture or two of him with the spitting lesbian. He used to be pretty good looking. Now, he's a disheveled mess veering into Johnny Depp territory.

I remember reading screeds about RR on Bitterwaitress (whatever happened to that site?) about her $40 a day show and her cheap celebrity tipping. She did not endear herself to servers.

Never liked her from day one. Mainly because I knew she was just another one of Oprah's frauds. Then the info came out about her getting a big loan for college in her younger years, but instead of spending it on college she went on a spending frenzy with it. That cemented my opinion. Trash.

🙄 She's on this morning with Zacharian cooking while she and creepy John are swilling martinis. She's plastered, screeching like a banshee, giggling like a teenager, and stumbling all over her words.

Since this is her last season, we'll most likely see many episodes of Drunken RayRay, or a whole lotta reruns.
