Yeah, this might be my favorite batch of Cheftestants. No villains, nobody insufferable. It kinda sucks because it means every week someone I like gets elliminated (Tu and Brother are two of my favorites, so this has been harsh.)

It’s not raw anymore if you boil it. Obvs.

Seeing that picture called to mind a meme I had seen earlier in the day: “Every guy with long hair is either gorgeous or creepy.  You can tell which by looking at his shoes.”

I was expecting Finger Eleven to have a brass section.

On one season of Top Chef Masters, he cooked a meal for the finale constestants
(like Emeril did when he was a judge) and it looked fantastic. Obviously they’re not gonna air any footage of chefs talking shit about his cooking, but it seemed well-received. 

Yeah, I was actually starting to like him as a competitor, but now that all he can do is make jokes he’s back to being Poochie.

More like Dodgy, amirite?

X-Wings, dude.

Oh, what naive fools we were.

Down and Out was a huge disappointment for me. It tried for the personal stakes rather than saving-the-world, which is very post-cyberpunk, but didn’t do enough with character development to make any of that feel important, especially as the characters became less and less sympathetic.

Leagues better than the Takashi Kovacs sequels. God, they were awful. Without the mystery element, clever plotting, and noir stylistics that

How am I going to Have a Good Sleep with that song stuck in my head?

Things fall apart.  The center will not hold.

Relax, Kevin, this isn’t The Wire.

And she’s an anti-vaxxer. She’s just awful all around.

She is the worst.

I feel like we’re in the minority here. The finale was the worst episode of this otherwise stellar season, by a long-shot. Strong candidate for worst episode of the entire run.

I really liked this season for the most part, but it didn’t have any of the truly high-concept episodes which for me are the highlight of the

Dial it back, Summer...by 15%, and increase Rasta-fication by 10. Am I right?

Well, it tries to be a character study, to some success. Bojack shows it up as the pretender it really is on that front.

“And anyway, you can always watch a 30 Rock rerun after.”

Ouch.
