Haha, Taffer has another show coming out focusing on dinning more? Not surprising at all...

Hopefully he doesn't spread himself too thin, I was hoping Bar Rescue would go on for a long time.

Wonder if they tried to get Brian Duffy for that investment show. I mean, he's more immediately recognizable than Derry, who was only on the one episode of Bar Rescue (though Top Chef fans probably know her.)

She was also an episode of Cutthroat Kitchen and won.

I don't remember every episode of Bar Rescue, but I think at this rate, none of Taffer's experts have ever done less for a bar than this barbecue guy.

I think the Jimmy/Monique stuff was probably craftfully edited, but still effective.

I wonder how long he practiced that lame "tail between your legs" speech to get back at being shamed by Taffer, just to be utterly shamed again.

What exactly is he "rescuing" here anyway? The owner doesn't seem terribly concerned with his bar being a shithole and I don't remember them saying he was in debt or anything.

Forget my suggestion of "Bar Arson" as the show name a few pages ago.

Just call it "Barson" and at the end of 50% of the episodes, Taffer just burns the whole goddamn bar down with the employees and owners still inside.

You'd think by now I'd be over them, but every other week I'm reminded of how loving terrible they are. It's hard to be the most noticeable thing in an episode with a bartender named Brandy Beaver.

Jon learned a lesson from Piratz if you try and change stubborn owners like them too much they'll poo poo all over your idea and it won't work. Better incorporate some of their stuff into a concept that works and a zombie bar could work in Vegas

If I was ever in a bar at the same time as Jon Taffer, I'd do an about face and walk out. From what I've seen, if the owners aren't fall down drunk, the reason the place is failing could likely get you violently ill.
