Is there deception???
The host of Iron Chef America (Mark Dacascos) has claimed many times to be Takeshi's nephew (original Iron Chef). This said making him the chairman of Iron Chef America when the actual relationship is only between the fictional characters played in movies by the two men. He is only an actor playing a part, it takes something away from the show. Yes I know it's only entertainment but thought I'd bring this up anyway. |

I consider this tidbit to be a carryover from that. The initial Iron Chef America specials hosted by William Shatner followed the original comedy model and were not as popular as expected. I figure FoodTV execs increased the competition aspect of the show thinking that would match US tastes better. It worked but they kept that "In the words of my uncle" bit as a nod. |
