Talk:Guy Fieri

message: Is his surname of Italian origin? Badagnani (talk) 10:25, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. He is Italian. His nickname is "Guido".
How do you know this? And why is his father's surname "Ferry"? Badagnani (talk) 03:43, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

text: I don't buy this "Ferry" surname. The citation references a blog entry from a blog I don't recognize. Who knows if it's legit. I can't find any other source to corroborate this. I think someone's trying to imply something. That I don't know, but I wouldn't take this at face value.Gschrive87 (talk) 19:14, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

text: The source also documents a different pronunciation. Should it be changed as well? --Ronz (talk) 16:29, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  If anyone knows IPA, please do. I unfortunately don't. Also maybe list both because otherwise I'd have no idea that Fieri is pronounced as "Fi-et-ti" and I've not heard it as "Fi-et-ti" elsewhere, really. Karajanis (talk) 20:46, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

text: In fairness, he may be trying to re-create the surname of his paternal lineage prior to the stereotypical Ellis Island clerk's mangling of it in the official documentation. If that is the case, I wouldn't call it "only a stage-name".  76.92.138.240 (talk) 16:46, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Surname 

message: The article says he "grew up in Ferndale, California (attending Piner High School),[2]"
The article referenced is about him winning the Next Food Network Star and does not contain mention of either Ferndale or Piner High School. He very well may have grown up in Ferndale (judging from the picture of him as a child selling pretzels in a wooded area that looks like that part of Northern California), but the source is wrong. As well, there is a Piner High School in Santa Rosa (it's on Wikipedia, duh) but there isn't one in Ferndale that I know of. Point being this info needs to be properly sourced.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by BlauNacht (talk • contribs) 17:06, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

message: This "As Not Seen on TV, Restaurant Review: Guy’s American Kitchen & Bar in Times Square" by the New York Times just knocks the hype down so perfectly.  Why isn't this in the article?86.167.185.32 (talk) 16:33, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It is in the article. --Onorem♠Dil 15:44, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

text: After reading the review, I can see why Guy reacted the way he did.  Not living within 1000 miles of NYC, it's not practical for me to go there and see for myself.  I presume, however, that the restaurant is still open because the article doesn't mention that it closed.  In either event, was there any legal action taken?  If so, it belongs in the article; if not, it's an excellent example of objective, neutral reporting.  JDZeff (talk) 20:53, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  A review of the food reality 

message: I have a feeling Fieri does not know what He studied or graduated with. In one episode of Triple D I saw last year on Food Network, he mentioned that when He went to UNLV, he studied PoliSci.  Is there any chance we can find out what is right, please?  I am aware he's on UNLV's alumni page as '90 BS Hotel Management, but that's from an article in Premier Magazine.  I think it would be a good idea to actually contact UNLV and verify that what is published in that source is absolutely correct.  If the man himself says he studied PoliSci, who the hell are we to argue with him? :)  CharlieTheCabbie (talk) 17:55, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: His website says "hospitality management", as does the Humboldt Beacon. Since the latter is a reliable third-party source, I'll use that. Huon (talk) 18:38, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

message: Can someone update the Guy Fieri#Filmography section to reflect the fact that the series Tournament of Champions (TV series) is currently airing on the Food Network? Since there is no evidence that the Food Network has plans to cancel this popular show, I suggest replacing "2024" with "present". 96.69.249.93 (talk) 01:29, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: – per MOS:DATED "present" should usually be avoided. If/when another season is released after this year it can be updated then, and so forth. ― novov (t c) 05:43, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
