Fabio Viviani fielded his share of TV show pitches the last few years — including one with Bravo that never came to fruition — but the endlessly quotable Top Chef alum finally joined forces with Yahoo!, not a network, to launch his Italian-cooking series Chow Ciao. “[With the previous TV pitches] I was kind of put on the spot for doing content for the network rather than be myself,” Viviani tells TVGuide.com. “Once Yahoo! approached me, they just asked me to be me.” The 3-to-5 minute episodes, part of Yahoo!’s new slate of online shows, go live every Monday and features Viviani demonstrating his favorite dishes, which, of course do not include burgers (or “boor-gers”). Find out what else you can expect from the series, if Viviani will pop on Top Chef again, and how his beloved turtle is doing.
