Jeanine Mason from SYTYCD had a pretty prominent role on Bunheads this week, and it looks like she'll be in upcoming episodes as well.

Kent Boyd also shows up once in awhile, but not in a speaking role.

Morgana, I'm totally with you, I thought she could go all of the way. I think that it was really frustrating for us as an audience because we could see Josie not following through on her commitments. Kristin was willing to take all of the responsibility, so they gave it to her.

The judges couldn't tell if it was a big thing or a little thing. Kristin could have said that the dish had a particular conception, but because Josie didnt stick with the plan, it was not about to be presented as planned.

re: top chef

That was both what I predicted and what I feared. Ugh. She won 'Last Chance Kitchen' tho, so maybe she'll be back?

thanks for the info about Bunheads. I watched the ep, but I could not see the woman dancer well enough to be able to tell who that was! that's awesome.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The classic shitty Restaurant Wars elimination! Doesn't that usually happen?

The leader almost always goes home. It could have been an exception, because Josie was on the edge with the judges.

Did anyone catch the return of Face Off this week? I love this show, and I'm so glad it's back.

I saw that my Tivo picked it up! Thank goodness for Tivo! But I haven't watched it yet.
