TNFNS Spoiled

In case you've been watching The Next Food Network Star and are on pins and needles for Sunday's big reveal, don't click here. The Food Network prematurely posted exit interviews from the two losing contestants even though the finale doesn't air until Sunday night. All offending videos, and a preview of the winner's new show are off the site now, but the damage has been done. The best part is the Food Network's response: "FoodNetwork.com experienced technical difficulties last night." This reminds us of the big Top Chef Spoiler of Ought Seven, which undoubtedly boosted ratings for the Ilan/Marcel showdown. Maybe FN knew what they were doing after all. [ENY/ELA]
