The cool part about Alton Brown and Good Eats is that he goes into the science behind the food ... and discusses the merits of various ingredients and implements (butter vs. margarine vs. crisco in cookie making for example).
Emeril cooks food that "normal" people don't eat. Or take time to make.
Alton's stuff is everyday normal food ...
Yeah, the fancy stuff is nice, and can be more fun to watch, but I've made more use of what I've learned at Alton's knee.
