Hi everyone - first time poster. I've managed to track down an online version of the Iron Chef 2012 premiere 2-hour special. It's uploaded onto FC2, a flash video site. The quality is quite good, and I'm surprised it's already online. video.fc2.com/en/content/20121026PpKeVTFfYou may need to make an account to view. I was able to watch without signing in, but after reloading the page a few times was required to make a (free) account. A pay account promises "High quality" but I don't think it's worth it. Hoping to find an HD download soon, to watch on my TV! Enjoy! (or should I now say, "Good Gastronomy!) TheLeong

Thank you so much for sending me this link. The Iron Chef fandom around the world thanks you. I pulled the video from that link, and I've put it up on my site. ironcheffans.info/wordpress/?p=1197I got a pay account on that site for one month. If the regular shows appear on the site starting next week, I'll keep it going. If not, it was worth the $15 to get this the day it aired.

Wow! I was not expecting to see this so quickly!
I've just started watching the episode, and I'm already extremely impressed. It's clear that the people behind this revival have a clear understanding of what made the original so great. It has the dramatic flair that ICA so desperately needs. And Kitchen Stadium 2012 is beyond cool. What a great blend of artistry and visual effects.
And there are a few familiar faces that show up. I won't spoil any of the surprises so that you can guys can be as floored as I was when you watch the episode.
I can't wait for a subtitled version of this! I really hope Food Network picks up the rights to this series, although the network has seemingly moved away from quirky shows like this in recent years. Regardless, it's great that we're finally getting more ICJ, and I look forward to future episodes!

I'm with you, MA! FN should watch a few revival episodes and bring to America!
