Kids take on professional chef on ‘Man vs. Child’ BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH Have there ever been so many kids in a hot kitchen? “Man vs. Child: Chef Showdown” (9 p.m., FYI) is the latest show to ask juveniles to julienne their carrots and so much more. On “Showdown,” a team of five precocious toquewearers — Cloyce (13), Holden (14), Emmalee (12), Dylan (11) and Estie (7) — must challenge an executive-level chef. The pros face an impossible and thankless job. The only thing worse than defeating a child is losing to one. Or viceversa. Adam Gertler, chef and TV personality, hosts the series. For those who watch very carefully, he was the runnerup on “The Next Food Network Star” in its fourth season. • On a similar family theme, “Food Fighters” (8 p.m., NBC, TV-PG) pits a mom and selfdescribed former cheerleader against a panel of professional chefs. Again, either these highly paid experts are shown up by an amateur, or seem like bullies trying to beat the girl-next-door. Adam Richman, familiar star from a gazillion cable series, is your host. For the record, NBC’s Thursday night lineup now consists of a show virtually indistinguishable from many cable offerings and two hours of “Dateline” (9 p.m.) This on a night when NBC’s “Must See
On tonight’s “Battle,” Bravo host Andy Cohen takes on Willie Geist of “Today.” • Answers arrive as the summer head-scratcher series “Wayward Pines” (9 p.m., Fox, TV-14) airs its 10th and final episode.

TV” series used to attract audiences exceeding 20 million. Comedies, once central to NBC’s Thursday night dominance, are no longer in the network’s plans. Come this fall, look for the return of “The Blacklist,” a reboot of a cult fantasy, “Heroes Reborn,” and new thriller “The Player,” set in the world of Las Vegas high-stakes gambling. Wesley Snipes stars in this series, from the executive producers of “The Blacklist.” Network fortunes and, to a large extent, identities, are forged by hits. For years the Spike network tried to brand itself as a place for “guys,” the young male viewers who are hard to reach with any pro-
gramming that does not involve sports. Their lack of success in guyland inspired Spike’s programmers to look to a more female audience, the kind that the miniseries “Tut” was supposed to attract. The network’s bona fide hit is “Lip Sync Battle” (10 p.m., TVPG), a celebrity karaoke singoff that’s spun off from Jimmy Fallon’s “Tonight Show.” Many think NBC should have pounced on this series, a natural complement to its perennial summer hit “America’s Got Talent.” But the network let it get away, and its loss has been Spike’s gain in ratings, online presence and buzz.
