^^ and ^ Either way, Kenny's damn sure better than Alex, right?

I pretty much agree with this...Kenny was definitely an alpha male and a good leader, but obviously that does not translate to good cooking. But, ^ yes, he was definitely waaaaaaaaaaaay better than Alex. Fuck Alex, even if the producers are clearly trying to make us hate Alex.

And I definitely agree that Ed has become Angelo's main competition. He has been totally on fire lately, and Angelo might be the classic "red herring" with the way the show has featured him and made us think from the beginning that he's going to win. Ed, unlike Angelo, doesn't get caught up in the BS, puts his head down, and makes great dishes. And everybody in the house seems to like him, for whatever that's worth.

Yeah, Alex is GONE!!!

8/19/2010 1:39:11 PM

Amanda's probably next... She had a good chance of going this week.

8/20/2010 9:55:09 AM

amanda is one special type of crazy


i think tiffany has a real shot along with ed and angelo

8/20/2010 10:24:13 AM

Amanda is moderately attractive

8/20/2010 10:30:41 AM

I think Amanda's gone, too. Her or Kevin. Also, it seems like Angelo is starting to pull a what's-her-face from last season, the girl who did great all year and then had a nervous breakdown towards the end and lost her confidence. Or the producers just want us to think that to make it interesting since he's been the obvious favorite from the beginning.

8/20/2010 11:17:58 AM

Amanda's out. Kevin is next, then Kelly probably.

8/26/2010 12:12:04 AM

amanda has the herp

8/26/2010 1:32:36 AM

i really really don't like kevin

8/26/2010 3:02:17 PM

^totally with you. he's so fucking confrontational. this isn't the real world, dude.

8/26/2010 3:05:26 PM

Has anyone else noticed that nearly all the chefs on those shows smoke (Top Chef and Hell's Kitchen)? Just an observation.

8/26/2010 3:30:40 PM

wait, this is important:

Does Angelo have a mail-order bride???

8/27/2010 10:56:19 AM

^hahahahahahaha that's what i kept wondering when he kept saying his wife was in russia. that's so funny...that would be really weird if he actually does.

8/27/2010 11:33:15 AM

Nah... it's cool, he said he's met her a few times and they talk on the phone for like 5 hours a day.

It's totally legit

8/29/2010 11:53:11 AM

yeah, that's totally a mail order bride

Angelo: "Do you miss me?"
Mail order bride: "What, what question is this?"

so now its an Emmy Award Winning Reality Show

8/29/2010 11:04:17 PM

tiffany is eliminated. pretty shocked by that; she was doing great and the dish she got eliminated on was good, but everyone else's was better, apparently. can't believe kevin's punk ass is still on.

9/1/2010 11:06:26 PM

Can't believe Kevin won. Although, he did kick ass in the finale.

Oh well, another season done.

9/16/2010 10:55:54 AM

I don't know what it is, but I am endlessly entertained each season by the "surprise" requirement to make a dessert for the finale. Ed pretty much took himself out of contention on that course alone. He was controlling and obsessive on every course, then tells his Sous Chef to just make whatever he wants for dessert?

Its obvious he spent tons of time prepping for the asian portion of the finale. Its rather surprising that he didn't plan out a dessert.

9/16/2010 11:10:25 AM

Whitney would own Kevin in a cook offf



but im glad Kevin won

[Edited on September 16, 2010 at 11:32 AM. Reason : c]

Was never really a fan of Kevin.. He definitely won the final challenge though, so I'm glad they picked him. Seems like a lot of the time they pick someone to eliminate or win based on previous performances. You can almost sense them gearing up to kick someone off. I prefer it when it's based more on that day's performance, and anyone can win or lose on any given day

9/16/2010 11:38:07 AM

yep, thats the way I like it too

you gotta be consistent and not make one amazing dish that you can slack off on and coast to the finals

9/16/2010 11:41:50 AM

I wouldn't say that I'm glad Kevin won, but I'm not mad about it. He's obviously got skills and he pulled it off.

But I honestly don't think that Kevin's a better chef than Ed or Angelo--and I don't even like Angelo. All this, of course, is highly subjective--even if I were able to taste the food, much less judging it through a TV screen.

9/16/2010 2:37:15 PM

I agree about putting your best foot forward for the finale and that that should have a huge factor in determining the winner, but I also think past performances should be taken into account somewhat. To me, they are judging who the best chef is overall. That's the way I see it, at least. I think it's total bullshit that Angelo dominated throughout the first half of the season, Ed dominated throughout the second half winning challenge after challenge, but Kevin won (and Michael Voltaggio seemed to play a huge part in Kevin's winning dish--again, kinda bullshit).

Whatever, though...it was kind of a shitty season anyway. I liked Angelo and Ed a lot, but I did not like Kevin AT ALL, so I am definitely biased.

9/16/2010 3:03:55 PM

i think it cant be helped that past performance is considered, so it is ingrained in the decision inevitably

thats like telling a jury to disregard "that evidence" in a courtroom

9/16/2010 3:28:14 PM

^^Each contestant had a previous winner with them and Ed even allowed his to do his entire meal. I do think Kev had a bit of luck since he has worked with Mike in the past.

9/16/2010 7:52:19 PM

i didn't watch the finale because i knew whoever got mike volt was going to win...cause he can out-cook all of this season's contestants to oblivion and back. i guess it was kevin who got luck enough to get him. grats to him. this season sucked.

9/16/2010 9:52:04 PM

im half watching this now with the football game on the main

angelo just double dipped his spoon after being "deathly sick" at minute 29

that's not cool

9/16/2010 10:52:11 PM

ok yeah shocker that who had m.v. as sous chef won

9/16/2010 11:23:28 PM

^^mythbusters says it's cool

9/17/2010 10:40:43 AM

ppretty awesome flameout on all stars last night

12/9/2010 1:33:53 PM

yeah that was kind of ridiculous
Jen pretty much lost it in season 6 because she lost all confidence in herself and her cooking--where the hell did this RAWR RAWR MY FOOD IS PERFECT FUCK YOU come from?

12/10/2010 2:29:07 PM

she's such a bitch... i thought it all the time during her season, and wednesday's performance proves it

i'm loving all-stars so far. it's so awesome skipping over the bullshit "getting to know the contestants" parts and not having to warm up to a new grouup

12/10/2010 2:42:08 PM

i actually liked jenn until that meltdown

that was pretty embarrassing
