And I definitely have. (Raises both hands and both feet.) BUT she was funny at times; I'll give her that.

Funny, I didn't find her all that funny last night.

Yeah, I picked up on the mean girl thing as well, and the smug thing, too. And I think Episode 2 is just a bit early for smug. I mean for shit's sake. "Nina doesn't jump in and participate in conversations like other people do…what's up with that?"

Right…an anteater that smells like patchouli oil and weed. He's almost a Cyclops.

Jeez, I wish I were that over the hill. And also jeez, does Mike sound like Super Dave Osborne or what.

Can't tell if you're joking or not but I SO hope this is true!! That wife of his is a nasty horror, and he was absolutely terrified of her. Nobody needs to live like that; he's usually on the verge of stroking out anyway so would love to see him with a nice, calming, supportive partner. Whatever age!

I thought the hot Aussie chick was last season. Wasn't the hot blonde this season from…some state or other? The blonde who won a competition called "Greatest Chef in America"?

LOVE hugh Acheson and his recaps on bravo are hilarious (and he's a surprisingly decent writer). What did Blais liken to cat food? Completely missed that; I'd have had to dump it on his head. His hair shield.

Who's on first?

Hahaha!!

I'm just so amazed that his wife allows him out of the house looking like that.

Absolutely. If they DO do another All-Stars season and katsuji is asked back (because he's so hilarious - right) and Doug is not (because he's so quiet), I will be extremely pissed off. For all that's worth.

I was astonished that he could have simply FORGOTTEN (which was the word he used) to add sugar and vinegar to the only sauce on the plate. Am hoping editing played a bit of a part in how that went down, since he didn't strike me as being capable of making such an elementary, boneheaded move in the Finale. It'd be like…

This, and Tom was over the moon about the dessert. And when tom's over the moon, the person he's mooning over wins. Indisputable fact. I think.

My point exactly. Not only do I have no recollection whatsoever of Rebecca's having even been on the show, I have NO idea what she actually did with that dessert.

Yes, but…tom does this EVERY season. Either "this was by far the best couple of chefs in TC finale history" or "these were hands down the best dishes ever created in TC history" etc. I'm also confused about that dessert…I either got distracted or just didn't see Rebecca do much which is odd considering Mei chose her…

Yeah, that balloon ride, sheesh. You'd think they'd at least have taken the opportunity to insert a Quick-Fire into the mix so they could have used those flames to caramelize a creme brûlée or something. Or roast a weenie.

Oh and oops. Guess you were!!

Oh for Pete's sake I thought you were referring to the points on the tips of her boobs. How silly of me.

Yer arm's off!!!
