> [@cochrane](#): > > Elzar from Futurama, just so I can get a blast from the Spice Weasel. 😃 \*BAM! \* WEET! (that’s the sound we make) I want Bob to cook me a burger. Greasy dives typically have the best burgers, plus he’s been featured in some cooking mags. I bet that’s a damned good burger. ---

> [@Grrr](#): > > Aunt Bee. I would not want to try the “Kerosene Cucumbers”! I bet she could make some great Fried Chicken! I think June Cleaver and Alice Nelson were pretty good cooks. Hazel Burke could probably cook pretty well, but damn, who could stand to be around her. ---

[Christian Kane](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0437283/), whether in his The Librarians character or his Leverage character. Presentation is everything and he covers all the bases: lethal, yummy looking and on the shows his food is “Wow” standard. ---
