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.

sj,

my sister! I watched Face Off. I love the show. I don't like that they cast a really irritating contestant every season, but oh well.

Isn't that every reality show though? It doesn't really annoy me as much on Face Off as on some of the other shows, where they tend to cast several really annoying, high drama people.

Because books.

Oh, Top Chef. Ugh. But I almost think Kristin wanted it that way -- I think her expectations of herself pulling everything off perfectly were unrealistic. She was certainly adamant about taking responsibility.

I'm surprised Stefan didn't die of heartbreak at the end.
