I guess I'm alone on this, but
Gail is gross. She reminds me of an overstuffed sausage casing and always looks like she just smelled one of Tom's Hen of the Woods farts.

She was like one of the zombies in the Thriller video. With a tattoo.

Alison and Megan and Adam
Oh my. Those are my picks for the "Top 12".

While we're sharing anecdotes - my wife showed this guy apartments when she dabbled in real estate. He brought his mom and grandmother along to look at them with him. This was only 3 years ago. My wife says he was nice.

Crank 2: Heart Yankers

For what it's worth, Hendricks with fresh grapefruit juice, some muddled cucumber and a salted rim is quite good as well.

Hate the new AI look
I was totally discombobulated by the new look - the weird round stage, the parents hanging out with the contestants, the judges on the other side of the studio, apparently judging in Hebrew this year; although that part reinforced for me how little I care about what any of them, besides Simon,…

Superman II
Did the switcheroo scene where all the Fulcrum agents died reminded anyone else of a similar scene in Superman II where Zod, et. al., lost their superpowers in the fortress of solitude?

Did the moldy closet kid make it?
I can't remember his name (maybe he's "nerdy Alex", although I can't tell from the review whether he made it or not).

I'm not sure - the guy I'm thinking of made a crack to Simon regarding a "joke" Simon was trying to make - along the lines of "that would have been funny if it had made sense". Which was classic.

What happened to…
The kid who learned to sing in his moldy closet and who STILL has the best one liner so far this season? I think I saw him in spots last night, but am not sure he made it through? I like his moxie, that one.

And yet
Spenser: For Hire remains sadly unreleased on DVD.

Sean O'Neal is so jealous…
If Ileana Douglas even talks to another interviewer, he'll beat the shit out of her.

It means "silly contract power play" to Theo Epstein

Finally
I am Ack-static at this news.

Aimee Teagerden in dreads
That's why I'll miss Rose

Pablo Escolar
So bad. I'm looking forward to the inevitable dessert challenge when he can bust out his "Josef Stalinzertorte - it brooked no compromise and I'm ready for a purge after it".

Screen Time
Scott, I had the opposite reaction - Jamie clearly got the loser's edit tonight - every other scene was her bitching about being bored by the food, being overwhelmed, not having Ripert taste her food. She had a bad attitude all night. I still think Leah should have gone home, but they foreshadowed that…

@ Boston Matt - was waiting for someone to notice that - Collichio finally smacked him down last night, telling Toby that cooking was "harder than it looks", after a particularly banal criticism from Toby about someone's dish.

I had a feeling - damn AV Club search tool - you have lied to me for the last time.
