The show The Next Food Network Star has a formula. It starts out with a set number of contestants and over the course of weeks, all the contestants are eliminated, save one. That last person standing wins a deal to make a 13-episode series for the Food Network. However, this season, the execs at the Food Network seem to be messing with the formula a bit. Not only did they advance three contestants to the final round, now they've announced that finalist Adam Gertler (famous in Philly circles for his short-lived restaurant The Smoked Joint) is also going to be getting his own show.

Called Will Work for Food, he'll be learning what goes into a variety of food industry jobs and passing this knowledge along to the viewers. Examples of the kinds of employment opportunities he'll be investigating include potato chip inspector, shark feeder and dog-food taste-tester. The show premieres on September 30 at 9:30 pm.

They do have pricier items, including an iPhone, a gym membership and financial security, but the food items are well painted and relatively inexpensive. Now, if only I could paint...
