As to why Ivy will miss designing, this was obviously her one chance to prove to her dream crushing family that she has what it takes to be a designer. The only way out of the family business was to win it all. Now she has to take her "superior" sewing and construction skills and settle into her future as a seamstress.

Goodbye Ivy!`
Ah there is nothing sweeter than the salty tears of a crushed dream!

Does that lipstick make her look like a clown, or a prostitute that caters exclusively to clowns?

I'm rooting for Ed as well. I totally forgot he was a sous chef for Cat Cora on Iron Chef. If he can hang with her good for him.

Crap, failed thin-irsties! I fear Thin-cer-aids will be coming my way.

Karma's a bitch and so are some of the designers
I feel so glad and sad for Mike C. While he is not as talented as the other designers he still deserves props for putting out a good look. It is sinfully delicious how jealous the other designers are. The judges do not care if you used hot glue and a stappel gun to make…

Tranny, whoa whoa whoa
Did the Situation really hook up with a tranny? I never watch the show but the article seemed interesting. If that really happened, talk about burying lede Rabin. That should have been front and center man.

Totally agree. The live blog experience only works when you are actually experiencing it live. Like many I DVR the program and watch it at a point where I can skip through most commercials. And I do this crazy thing where I pay attention to the show I am watching.
I have no desire to read a blog while watching. I have…

To quote the Producers, Shut-up Chartex, he thinks he's witty.

Julia Ormond's misquote
She actually started that quote off wrong and said "It takes a village to make a child…"
Now that's one wild village.

Woot! My comments where noticed by the recapper. John Teti you made my day. By any chance are you related to a Dan Teti, lawyer out in Ohio?

Epic
People we saw a perfect storm come together, enjoy this brief, brief moment. I think we have a challenge that will be making its way into every future season of Project Runway. Just like when 8 cheftestants are left on Top Chef it's Restaurant Wars, when we get to 12 designers it'll be team collection.
And we got…

Cocaine's a hell of a drug
- Rick James

Don't feel bad Gerald, I had a feeling that I was going to get that comment after I posted. It's not really a quote that shouts "Hey I'm using someone else's line." And it's from that short period between baby Gerald's introduction and when his name was finally revealed.

Also, unlike Jen he has a penis. Between Angelo's crabs and coke-fiend Amanda's cold sore is this the most VD filled season of Top Chef yet?

Was Amanda this season's Robin?
Amanda definately left me with the impression of the cheftestant who gets extremely far by always having the second worst dish. She definately was the last of the "snowball's chance in hell" of winning this thing. At this point everyone left has that I wouldn't be surprised if they made…

Angelo misses Kenny
Without Kenny, Angelo has seems off his game. Everybody needs a nemesis. Sherlock Holmes had his Dr. Moriarty, Mountain Dew has its Mellow Yellow, even Maggie has that baby with the one eyebrow. I bet Angelo would give anything to have Kenny back in the game. Angelo seemed more focused while he was…

Next on the chopping block…
While Kevin is a likely candidate, my money is on Angelo. He is really starting to loose it. Sort of like Jen from last season, Angelo has lost his confidence, unlike Jen he is going a little mad. But hey we all go a little mad sometimes.
