Oddly, I remember not understanding during the season why Nigel was so hard on Nathan, and kept harping on how immature he was, but on rewatch, I can see where it comes from.
(Though I still think pairing him with Mollee was a mistake, given how young she was too)
That was the startling part. It seemed so personal.
Is the slowest foxtrot ever or what?
I've switched to Food Network Star, but I have to say I'm much less interested now that Mary Beth is gone. She was far from perfect, but I was really interested in seeing what she could do with a whole show.
I'm sure Mary Beth will end up with a show on the Cooking Channel or the Style network or something like that. I think she'd be far better off with a show where she eats rather than a show where she cooks though.

I agree. And they've done that with other people who didn't make it to the final (or did and didn't win). I was thinking even a show about "finding it fresh" or something, where she could travel all over and spotlight local markets or whatever.

Yeah, that's why I said it. I've seen previous runner-ups all over the place and in some cases their shows are more interesting than what the winners come up with. Find it fresh, is a good idea. Going around to farmer's markets and local specialty food stores around the country.
I'm very disappointed with the results of NFNS. I hope that the other two end up with shows somewhere as well.
Yeah, out of the two finalists, I really would have preferred Suzi win.
I would have enjoyed Suzi's (Vic's probably even more) but I think the concept of the winning show is interesting and not something that's out there right now.
(I have to say I was starting to get tired of the "things my father did/did not anticipate when he crossed the border" theme.)
Vic was my favorite. I always thought Suzi's food looks delicious. I'm just not interested in a show about sandwiches, plus I find what's his name is annoying.
