This is the COMPLETE Series (as of today) of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.  

As per the original airings:
Seasons 1-10 are 480p 4:3* (640x480, H264 MP4, 128mpbs AAC) 
Seasons 11-20 are 720p 16:9 (1280x720, H264 MP4, 128mpbs AAC)

Special thanks to SoFRiTo, whose collection I used as a starting point, transcoding most of them for this one.  I filled in the rest that were missing via separate downloads, recordings, etc.

*I was missing S03E13, which was recently aired in "modified" Widescreen (part stretched and part cropped), so I settled on 1:66 as the ratio.   Enjoy!

theMDR = The Media Done Right

File list not available.

Correction on the second-to-last line: 1.66:1 is the correct ratio =)
Epic upload. If it sticks, I will grab. Thanks.
As of August 23rd, 2014 (2 days after this torrent was posted), TPB reports 0 seeders and 34 leechers.

I'm going to attempt to DL, hopefully not a waste of my time.

Assuming all goes well, many thanks for what appears to be an epic upload!
I fixed the issue that was making the seed not work, so try again...
I'm glad to see someone is trying to get these uploaded. After season 15 or so the interest seemed to have dropped off.

A torrent this large is probably going to take a few weeks to seed out initially. And larger torrents don't tend to keep as many seeders around. It would probably have been better to post them as separate seasons.
OK, it will seed correctly and continuously now. I'll keep it seeding for a long while...
holm3: You are a man of your word. Thanks for the epic upload and continuous seed. What a great collection!

Season 21 is already planned by the Food Network. I can't wait.
S21E01 - Chicago's Finest airs new tonight (Saturday, 9/13). Just a head's up for collectors.

Anyone interested in ripping this?
I overlooked this torrent several times, thinking it said "-S02" instead of "-S20"...but now I'm snatching it right up! I was missing two episodes of older seasons, and only had bad copies of a couple more, so it will be wonderful to get the collection all filled and refurbished.

There is some website (lost my link to it) that actually has these available for download as they come out...that would be a wonderful place for anyone who is able to snatch them and torrent them for the rest of us...

...but many thanks to holm3 for the great work and the fabulous upload!
