Now, Irvine recently explained Restaurant: Impossible&#;s cancellation on Twitter, saying, &#;I’m old news, and although the show is a great show that helps small business and families/communities, it’s not a show that they [at the network and/or Warner Bros. Discovery] believe fits into who or what they want, or the younger viewers like.&#;

Between competitions like Chopped, Iron Chef America and even Food Network Star, nothing compared to the title the channel debuted that year.
