Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives is a reality television series hosted by Guy Fieri featuring diners, drive-in restaurants, and dive bars in the USA. Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives is aired on the Food Network channel and each episode has a different theme.
Calling David Page simply a producer is quite an insult. At worst he is the creator of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, and at his very worst he’s the ultimate thorn in the side of Guy Fieri. From its pilot episode, Page served as executive producer up to Season 11.
That honor falls to the Bayway Diner in Linden, New Jersey, where the first scene for Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives was ever shot.
The diner got so popular after being featured on the pilot that owner Mike Giunta expanded seating to a tent outside his tiny diner, and launched a food truck and adjoining catering business to keep up with the relentless demand from the flood of customers and fans. Have you ever been to a restaurant and thought, “This place should be on Triple-D!”
How did the Diner effect on the pilot?

Guy Fieri and his frosted tips won Season 2 of Next Food Network Star, which led to his own show, Guy’s Big Bite. Around that same time, David Page had an idea for a program that would focus on diners, drive-ins, and dive restaurants. The Food Network powers decided to give Guy a shot at hosting. The pilot took 21 days to shoot.
You probably realized that Guy doesn’t literally roll up to a diner, drive-in, or dive, hop out, and start dropping catchphrases and hunching over to disconnect his lower jaw to scarf down a meal. Recording television programs takes time.
Weirdly, Flowmaster didn’t seem willing to let Fieri be Fieri, insisting on a more professional presentation that may have moved a lot of mufflers, but never managed to get America talking quite in the way that Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives does every single day.
