Several years ago, Christopher Walken was talking about his desire to host a cooking show. I remember him mentioning it on Conan, and the editors of the British movie magazine, Hot Dog, were lobbying to have said show produced in the UK.
Apparently, he and Julian Schnabel actually created a cooking show for Split Screen on cable network, IFC. But, it appears to have been a one-time thing--and it's not out on DVD, damnit.
Seriously, though, who the hell wouldn't watch that? Even if he was just making peanut butter & jelly sandwiches every week, it would be the greatest cooking show ever.
Well, we may be in luck. Eight years after I first heard about it, Walken seems to be lobbying for his own cooking show in the form of a three-minute video that's all over teh internets. It looks like it was filmed in his kitchen with a camcorder, and it's just a straightforward piece on cooking a chicken and pears. No dancing, no craziness, no cowbell. Just cooking.
"Those little caps. They get like little cookies. They're very tasty."
I would watch this show every day.
