It can be difficult to get back into the thick of things after a long holiday weekend, so we hope our Channel Surfing TV picks can help make that transition a little easier. Talented molecular gourmets reinvent the classics in Snack vs. cook. Everyone’s favorite wizard Nelwyn returns Willow. Then the crew at Slough House have another mission in the new season of Slow horses.
A delicious twist on a classic
There are many reality cooking competitions out there, so it can be difficult to top a new series. Snack vs. cook hopes that his interesting interpretation can successfully combine food science and iconic foods.
Listen to the latest episode of the AIPT Television podcast!
Twelve chefs battle it out to win the $50,000 grand prize in the finale. Their challenge is twofold. First they have to recreate a classic snack that the judges will love the most. Then they will make an original dish inspired by that timeless food. Comedians Hari Kondabolu and Megan Statler are the hosts.
The first season of Snack vs. cook will appear on Netflix on Wednesday, November 30.
In the Unknown
The world was once saved when a young farmer Nelwyn defeated a powerful witch with quick wits and cleverness. Many years later, he is approached to once again rid the world of evil, but this time he is a powerful sorcerer.
Willow is a fantasy adventure that serves as a sequel to the movie of the same name. A group of heroes is brought together to rescue a kidnapped prince. Their journey will take them far beyond their home, where they will encounter demons from real life along with those within themselves.
