Okay, I attempted to see who has elimination challenge top/bottom standings. This could be highly inaccurate but:
Malarkey, Hung and Tre are tied with 3 times in the top. Then Howie and Dale with two a piece then CJ, Casey and Sarah M with 1 each.
Howie has been in the bottom 4 times, Sarah M. 3 times, Dale, Hung and Casey - 2 each and Malarkey amd CJ 1 each.
Wikipedia's got a cheftestant progression chart.
So far, the remaining elimination winners are Brian, C.J., Howie (2) and Tres (3).
Casey, Dale, Hung and Sara M. have yet to win an elimination challenge, although everyone's been high at least once. (I'd be high too if I were on this show.)
Interestingly, Howie has been low on every episode he didn't ultimately win.
But Casey is the only one who has won the quickfire twice.
But Casey is the only one who has won the quickfire twice.
True, which, interestingly enough, is where Marcel was before the end of last season. He didn't actually win one until episode 11. Same episode Cliff manhandled him.
And Hung hasn't won a challenge but he has been in the top half 3x which is more than anyone else.'=
And those times were spread evenly through the season -- but I think that of the 4 teammates last night, his was the weakest dish.
Casey has been "low" more than Marcel was -- but I think that this season's contestants are generally better than season 2's so I'm not sure that means anything.
Theoretically, this is Sara N's interview at chow.com but it is still downloading for me.
BB: The last 5 minutes of tonight's show got caught off. Did anything exciting happen after whatshername got HOH?
