Why is the Travel Channel so much better than Food Network?

I love watching food shows and am consistently disappointed in the quality of food network shows. Why does Travel Channel (aka Anthony Bourdain and Andrew Zimmern) have so many higher quality, better produced, and generally more entertaining and insightful food shows than anything on Food Network?

1. Mostly because of Bourdain :3
2. Not sure but probably has to do with the amount of money involved. I think the Travel Channel has more money to spend on programming.
3. im not sure if i agree lol i think they both are about the same
4. Your answer lies within the difference in those channel's demographics. The Travel Channel is geared toward a more cultured, worldly audience, while Food Network caters to a more basic, middle american housewife audience. The Travel Channel also gets to film their original programming on location the majority of the time, and Food Network conducts most of their filming in studios.
5. since every body likes to travel. so everybody likes to see such programs even in the TV, as most of them are unable to fulfill their hopes because of so many reasons.so they just watch those programs and enjoy them. so it contain much higher quality.
