A cynical food show host shares bawdy tales of his celebrity past & risks gastronomic disaster while filming a new TV series that could save his career.

SYNOPSIS:

The year is 2000, and D-List celebrity Guidry Cloche has one last chance to make it to the big time. Competition among other TV foodies is fierce, but after a decade spent slugging it out with fellow culinary luminaries, he is finally ready for his closeup. That is, if he can make it through filming the pilot episode of his new cable show. With a rookie producer and an inexperienced crew, he faces a daunting gastronomic challenge and learns that old dogs really CAN learn new tricks. Using flashbacks, our misanthropic antihero regales his team with bawdy tales of a career in the food-show biz. An unabashed love letter to Anthony Bourdain, BAD FOODIE honors his legacy of celebrating the shared humanity of strangers through food, and embracing the capacity for growth, empathy, and understanding. It's also profane, subversive, and just plain funny.
