    Aw...poor THE Champ.
    I think Steph will pull through.
    Why do you hate this season? I am finding it entertaining. I think it is a funny bunch of people now that the silly billies are being weeded out.
    It is no season one and the challenges are hit or miss, but I still enjoy it.
    You didn't cry last night??? It was such a sweet episode with those kids. I loved them.
    Mark makes a curry....pretentious fool. C-ya!
    Tomatoes and peanut butter...lol

    Did I cry? Lol..Anyway, I hate this season because it's fucking boring and they are all lame. I wish Hung and/or Stephen were around to school these loser wannabes..

    Is anyone else really fucking sick of richards pink croks or however they're speeled? I want to take them off and beat the hawk out of him.

    You should seriously consider drinking more often as the above is the most interesting thing you've written so far ;)..

    So in the preview for this week's episode Dale is fighting with Spike. :mad:
    He better not throw Spike under the bus.
    I always get a kick out of the wedding episodes.
    Remember the cake made from a box? And it had eggshells in it?? :p

    No love for Top Chef last week?
    Dale just could not do anything right! Half assing everything is not the way to go.
    The other team was awesome. And how cool of Richard to split his prize with that line cook from McDonald's Stephanie? ;)

    See ya Amy Winehouse wannabe. Butternut squash tortellini? Ick.

    You best stop messing with my girl!! And I actually didn't see it as a genuinely nice gesture. I could be wrong, but I think this dude is full of shit. I realized last episode that his actions are very calculated and the carefully thought out words are ultimately disingenuous..Too much of a kiss-ass for my liking..Pay close attention and let me know if i'm way off base on this one..

    Wow....my three least favorite people on the show all on the chopping block together. I would have rather seen lisa or spike go home tonight (mainly b/c the other guy keeps me awake w/ that machine gun mouth of his). I guess lisa's blank stares of death at the judges table make for some good comedy too though ;)

    Pretty cool to see sam back on the show. Anyone know what he's doing now?

    Yeah, I wanted to see Spike go home, but I think the outcome of that was inevitable since he was "outed" for not following the rules of the challenge. For a while earlier in the season, I thought it was going to be Richard, Dale, and Andrew in the final 3 -- guess that won't be happening :p

    I had the most problems with Lisa's dish. From what they showed, none of it looked appetizing and the shrimp looked raw. I think eventually, her attitude is going to piss off the judges and the next bad dish she produces, the combination will be enough to send her packing. Also, I doubt anyone sabotaged her rice. She either turned it up too high by accident or wasn't paying any attention to what she was doing.

    I'm still pulling for Antonia, although I don't know if she's got what it takes to consistently beat Dale and Richard.

    yeah, I thought Lisa should have gone. This is the only tv show I'm watching this spring and I like it.

    I have to say, I think they keep running the same footag of Lisa standing on the chopping block, arms folded, look of DEATH on that face I am sure her mother loves. She can't only have 2 different looks in her repertoire????
    Spike shouldn't even have been up for elimination...they just needed to throw another person up there. Yes his dish was pedestrian but it looked good and who doesn't like chicken salad?? I was intrigued by the whole olive/grape combo...he is certainly in touch with his feminine side. :p
    Lisa's dish looked like barf and Andrew didn't play by the rules and his rolls looked as gross as they probably tasted. He was trying too hard to step it up to Richard's level.
    Dale has done nothing to wow me.
    My girl Antonia rocked the house again.
    Richard, Antonia and grr.....Steph for the finale. I hope.
    Let those girls take down the fauxhawk scientist.

    I don't like chicken salad! :p:D

    I think now it's going to be Richard, Dale, and Antonia in the final 3. Dale might not be overly impressive, but he's not usually in the bottom three of either quickfire or elimination challenges. He wins enough to remain competitive and slides by when the challenge doesn't let him showcase his strengths. Steph is waaaay to hit or miss. One week her dishes look great, the next like crap. If she was more consistent, I'd say she'd be in the final 3. All in all, I think it's Richard's competition to lose right now.

    :eek: No chicken salad?? :p
    I just don't think Dale is a good enough chef and he totally showcased that during the wedding challenge. He took too much on and messed it all up.
    Antonia cooks with her heart, Richard with his head and we'll see who winds up being the other finalist. I wish it would be Spike because I think he cooks with his soul.

    Nope, no chicken salad. I don't like mayonnaise at all. I know Spike's didn't have mayo, but I still probably wouldn't have tried his. It's weird, because I eat eggs and use oil occasionally on salads, but mix the two together and it makes me want to puke....:o



    It will be interesting to see how it all plays out though. I don't think Spike or Lisa have what it takes to win. Any of the other 4 could win, but I hope it's Antonia. She just seems like the most likeable contestant, which is why I think I'm pulling for her.

    And may I remind the champ that I have been pulling for her since the begining.

    What the hell is going on here? From what I saw, my girl Steph killed yet again no? She destroyed Antonia last night and the week prior won the fucking challenge with her glorious wedding cake..and yesterday she effortlessly whipped up that awesome soup :)...talk about a versatile top chef, jesus!! Antonia's 'mothering' food/dishes are getting old and it really exposes what a one dimensional cook she truly is..

    Actually the judges said Lisa's wedding cake tasted better than Steph's.

    I was shocked to see Dale go tonight, Lisa screwed up two dishes and deserved to go more. Spike was lucky to be out on the floor as I'm think he is the weakest of that team.

    It has to be Steph vs Richard in the final now, no one else is on par with those two.

    I was shocked as well. Both Andrew and Dale are significantly more talented than Lisa..First she threw Andrew under the bus and now Dale..What the fuck, the judges haven't a clue..the producers are obviously pushing for a female winner this season..

    Oh and fuck Spike! What a retard..

    Dale didnt do his job, wasnt a team player and presented one of the worst dishes Ive ever seen on that show. As the executive chef, he was responsible for all the dishes and thats why he got the boot.

    Lisa may have even sabotaged him ("Dale picked the rice") and it worked.
