"The person most responsible for the team's failure" was the phrase the judges used (maybe I'm paraphrasing) to describe who should go. Katsuji fits that description. He set himself up to be the hero if things went well and John to be the sacrificial lamb if things went south.

Emily has a serious persecution complex.

Question: Would you avoid going to a restaurant run by a TC contestant you didn't like? Patronize a restaurant of a contestant you did like? My wife were having a conversation about Jamie falling on the sword at the end of the Pirate-themed episode and I suggested he was smart enough to know that how he came across…

Welcome to the La La Verse

I was just commenting how Ted Danson always seemed to have work - a rarity in show biz. My wife guessed that maybe he was just really easy to work with and a real pro. Sounds like this is the case.

AV Club's interview with Craig DiGregrio shed a lot of light on why this episode felt so clunky.

Dude's British. Cut him some slack.

Coulda' used you in high school when I "forgot" to do the assigned reading.

Don't stop there. Throw in a hologram of George Reeves and some unseen film of Christopher Reeves. Heck, you can even put Nick Cage in blue and red spandex.

DEEE-LITE-FULL episode.

I bailed on LoT just after Carter died for good last season. What happened to Hawk Girl? What happened to the fella' that put the LoT team together? Y'know, the one who looks like Murray from Flight of the Conchords. How sweet would it have been if every episode of LoT to started with him saying "Band meeting" and…

"All the way to Pound Town."

No Shado, no Maseo. They tried to get the old Lian Yu band back together but I guess it was not to be.

Bring back the Undefeated Gaul!

IIRC, H. Jon Benjamin talked about how the process of recording for Bob's vs. Archer were so different - Bob's having the cast together and Archer having each actor recording his/her part alone at his/her location.

There are so many great episodes that could have been included that it's inevitable that some favorites were left out of the list. Beyond Gayle, who is a blood relative, I think of Teddy and Mort as family. Hell, even Jimmy Pesto is like that one asshole cousin we're all cursed with.

It would be very, very wrong to take Pablo from us, the viewing public. Don't do it.

Ray Santiago has been lifting and doing Pilates. This is not a drill. Pablo is ripped.

I suspect Ash has a glove compartment full of wet wipes scored from chain restaurants that he uses tidy up after a messy beheading.

I was not sure until Ash showed up. He was a little too subdued for it to be the "real" Ash.
