Why he might be annoying:

    Most of his TV shows are about food.
    He gained a lot of weight from all of the eating he did on his shows.
    He got into an embarrassing argument on Twitter after using a 'thinspiration' hashtag, telling one woman he was arguing with to commit suicide.
    Because of his Twitter gaffe, his show 'Man Finds Food' was shelved for nearly a year.
    He posed nude for Cosmopolitan.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He lost over sixty pounds after 'Man v. Food' ended.
    He visited a dying boy in Decatur, Illinois whose final wish was to meet Adam.
    His shows give national publicity to local mom-and-pop restaurants.
    He comes across as a personable guy (when he's not getting into Twitter arguments).
    He was an unknown actor who wound up hosting a silly little cable show about food and hit it big.
