Gerussi vs Blender
Cool ShitVancouver legend and fashion plate Bruno Gerussi used to have a show on the CBC in the late seventies called Celebrity Cooks. I dont remember all that much about the show other than hazy memories of being home sick from school and hitting the dead spot of morning TV where nothing was on for 8 year olds (it was repeats in the 80s that I saw not the 70’s). Seeing it now I did not realize that Bruno Gerussi had such a love of floral shirts but he does remind me of a day when Canadian tv seemed more human and more watchable than what we get today. Check out his blender incident in the intro. If only cooking shows were as exciting today. Then again we get overwrought on production, poorly cast shows like Jpod or worse MVP.
