Food Network Miraculously Signs Bobby Flay After They Had Totally Walked Away and Wished Him Well

In a shocking development, Food Network has signed Bobby Flay to a contract just weeks after they declared the negotiations ended and sent Flay packing!

It was just last month that Food Network sources leaked the “scoop” that they were walking away from Flay — with two months to go on his contract because “the sides were far apart on financial terms” — to Variety‘s Cynthia Littleton.

At the time, Littleton noted “Flay representatives at WME declined to comment on the situation, citing the policy of not commenting on active negotiations. That’s an indication that Flay’s team sees some hardball negotiating tactics afoot.”

Also, too many challenge shows. I want to learn to cook some new dishes, I don’t need fourteen shows about making cupcakes.
