Yelp Haters Are Getting Their Own Show, Thanks to Food Network

If you're one of those people who finds joy in leaving bad Yelp reviews for restaurants, you're going to love Food Network's new show. According to Forbes, the network has paired with Yelp to make a new show called 12 Hungry Yelpers, which will be all about helping restaurants improve based on negative reviews they've received on Yelp. The name is a riff on "that classic courtroom nail-biter 12 Angry Men," Grub Street reports, and I can't help but envision this as the 2.0 version of Robert Irvine's Restaurant Impossible.

Everyone knows Yelp restaurant reviews are approximately 15 percent valuable and 85 percent whiny complaints/rants ("the wait was too long"), so the concept should certainly make for entertaining television. In preparation for the show, which doesn't yet have a release date, please enjoy this hilarious video from Foodbeast, in which popular chefs read one-star Yelp reviews. It's like the food version of celebrities reading mean tweets.
