Alfonso Ribeiro (Carlton) to Host Unwrapped 2.0 On Food Network - Why Not Marc Summers?

Alfonso Ribeiro, who most people know as Carlton from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, posted on his social media accounts that he will be hosting a new show on the Food Network called Unwrapped 2.0.  Alfonso also just won season 19 of ABC's Dancing With The Stars, so some may know him from that as well.

There isn't any information about Unwrapped 2.0, but you would have to assume it is just a newer version of Food Network's long running show Unwrapped with Alfonso as the host rather than Marc Summers.

I reached out to Marc Summers on Twitter to see if he was producing the show, and he responded with "no comment," which made it seem like he wasn't a fan of the idea of Unwrapped 2.0.



Looking back on older Twitter posts, Alfonso tweeted on November 23rd, "I have a new show called Unwrapped on the food network. Starts in February."  Marc Summers chimed in to correct him by saying, "been on for many years! Not so new but good luck. Hope your run lasts many more years."



And when Alfonso Riberio won Dancing With The Stars, Marc Summers tweeted out the next morning, "Imagine that. A professional Broadway dancer wins DWTS.  Incredible!"



What do you think?  Does it seem like Marc isn't happy that the Food Network is doing an Unwrapped 2.0 and using Alfonso Ribeiro as the host?

Marc Summers is still the executive producer of Restaurant Impossible and the head judge on Rewrapped on the Food Network, so he still has plenty on his plate.
