Yeah, totally with you on the hotter than Kristen.

New meaning to them eating each other out

Last week, I made a comment that the next host should be eye candy and that Gail didn't fit that bill.  She looked cute last night, so I take that back.

The elimination challenge was soo unexciting.  Salmon and bread?? And making them cook 200 portions dumbs it down more.   It really could've used the shenanigans.

the part of the world that has a whole bunch of supermodels dying for a  TV hosting job.  But it sounds like others are digging on Gail, so I'll have to recalibrate.

Gail? Nah, you need eye candy for the host role.  I say they go full-on trainwreck and bring in Lindsay Lohan for the new host.

I'm still waiting to be wowed by an elimination challenge this season.  I know people hated on Texas, but the Charlize Theron and mentor episodes had killer food by all of the contestants.  Was there anything that solid this year?  Or did Josie bring down the level of the food, too?  http://wp.me/p1ByJK-Yi

Not saying, but there was a lot of references to their "romance" in the promos and in the actual LCK.  It did look and sound like they were playing up the whole thing.  Doubt it actually happened.

Is Kuniko really still winning the fan voting?  She was nice and did OK at first, but she wasn't on long enough to be a favorite anything.

To his credit, he has a douchebag hat for every occasion.

You forgot the "HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA"  or "ACKACKACKACKACK" .  However you spell her obnoxious cackle.

Ok, I'll spoil it for you - it's seemed a lot closer than it should've been.  Kristen genuinely seemed  scared.  And  Kristen's reaction when Josie walked in was sweet in a I'm-going-to-knife-you way.

Josie early on said that she just keeps her head low and went to work.  Wonder if she'll watch her performance and re-think that quote.  Yeah, probably not.

I think all the gripes about Stefan's crappy service was a red herring. The judges talked about restaurant reviewers looking at surrounding tables to get a clear picture of what's happening.  It seemed many of the diners were enjoying themselves and not wanting to leave when done eating.  Doesn't sound like a bad…

I always wonder how much a chef's good or bad performances in previous episodes carry over.  Based on tonight's it seems not so much.  If you take what the judges saw this week, they may have gotten it right.  It was Kristen's crappy seafood in the Bouillabaise and her lack of wine in the Beef Bourguignon.

I think Kuniko's reign as fan fave ends soon. I just don't think she was on screen enough to get enough love to carry her through. Either of the two on LCK (notice I didn't spoil it?) should replace her as they both have proven to be great cooks.

Oh crap, just thought of something horrendous.  Do you think it was the Lingerie Football League?

When Nyesha lost to Bev, they pulled that crap where midway through they had the chefs switch.  Nyesha had Bev pretty well prepped.  Nyesha had to perform a miracle to pull that out.   So wonder if they're going to pull the same type of chicanery here.

Put aside friendship, I thought Stefan's strong background in European food would help Kristen's French concept.

Depending on the dish Filipino food can be pretty easy to do.  As they said, the tough part is making it look appealing.  I think Stefan can help there.  And we eat a bunch of pork, which Josh can tell you he knows how to cook.  #Sheldonsdoomed
