“#Superstar comic Sebastian Maniscalco’s new cooking show<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Superstar standup comedia<\/a>n Sebastian Maniscalco couldn\u2019t perform onstage during the pandemic \u2014 so he used that time to create his new comedy cooking series<\/a>, \u201cWell Done with Sebastian Maniscalco.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was looking to get into the cooking space for the last five-to-seven years. I have a passion for the culinary arts and was like, \u2018What could we do?,\u201d Maniscalco, 48, told The Post. \u201cNothing resonated with me until the pandemic; a buddy of mine, Dominic DeBartolomeo\u2026his business was decimated. He provides meats and cheeses to local restaurants in LA and has his own line of Italian [food] products.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maniscalco and DeBartolomeo decided to throw a Sunday supper to raise money for charity and to expose DeBartolomeo\u2019s business to Maniscalco\u2019s huge fan base (he\u2019s got 1.1 million followers on Instagram). \u201cIt worked out,\u201d Maniscalco said. \u201cIt was a really big success and I thought, \u2018This is really fun\u2026let\u2019s do a TV show combining my two passions, comedy and food. I wanted to do it around things that interest me in the culinary arts and it also comes from having two small kids [4-year-old Serafina and 2-year-old Caruso]. Being a father, I want to teach them things like how to make bread or take them fishing and show them how to bait the hook.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell Done with Sebastian Maniscalco,\u201d premiering Thursday (Aug. 12) on discovery+, certainly checks all of those boxes. In the opening episode, Maniscalco, DeBartolomeo and chef Michael Cimarusti, who co-owns seafood restaurant Providence in LA, take a fishing expedition from Marina Del Rey \u2014 and Maniscalco gets violently ill shortly after their departure, excusing himself to go to the bathroom and emerging the worse for wear. \u201cI knew that I get seasick and I was thinking that maybe this would be different,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a bigger boat, a commercial boat, and within five minutes I was on the floor. I figured being a larger boat I wouldn\u2019t have as much of a problem, but that thing was shaking. It was all real. So it made for good TV.\u201d<\/p>\n

The threesome catch several kinds of fish (including whitefish and sculpin) and, upon their return to the marina, Maniscalco learns how to properly gut and fillet a fish, not without some hiccups (\u201cI did a complete hack job,\u201d he says on-camera). Afterward, Cimarusti cooks the fish at his restaurant.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of my favorite shows is \u2018Top Chef\u2019 and I kind of loosely watch food shows, whether it be Giada [De Laurentiis] but those are more instructional,\u201d Maniscalco said. \u201cThe reason I watch them, particularly \u2018Top Chef,\u2019 is to see who\u2019s new and hot in the restaurant game<\/a>. I don\u2019t want to make this show very instructional \u2014 I just want to give some information and provide some entertainment as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maniscalco said there is a difference between performing standup and hosting a series, albeit one that includes a comedic element.<\/p>\n

\u201cStandup is a lot of pressure because of the immediate response \u2014 if you\u2019re not funny doing standup then there\u2019s gonna be a problem,\u201d he said. \u201cHere, there\u2019s a different kind of pressure, you know you have to be funny\u2026but, for me, the TV show wasn\u2019t all about that. It was never forced. But this is a comedy cooking show and I was aware of that going in. A lot of the \u2018talk to the camera\u2019 stuff was written jokes, so we knew we had that\u2026I knew [the laughs] would come out of the situation I put myself in.\u201d<\/p>\n

The seven-episode series will, in future installments, feature Maniscalco and comedian Russell Peters exploring the similarities between sushi and comedy; a \u201cmeat-centric\u201d dinner party with guests including Bert Kreischer and Anjelah Johnson; and hunting for sandwiches with Rich Eisen, Fortune Feimster, Gillian Jacobs and Oscar Nunez. The premiere features three episodes, with one episode a week following every Thursday thereafter.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re going to have a little smile on your face while you\u2019re learning about a particular food or making a dish,\u201d Maniscalco said. \u201cPeople like to tune in and kind of forget their problems for 30 minutes, and this is similar to what I do with standup comedy \u2014 escape a little bit and have a little fun watching a cooking show and laughing at the same time.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
