askye, I'm watching. Nigella is an executive producer, so unless she decides to leave as a mentor, I doubt she is going anywhere, but I do feel bad for the terrible way she seems to be treated by the people she picks.
Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

I'm watching The Taste. I always feel badly for Nigella. She only gets folks who no one else picks. Has she ever won a head to head battle with the other mentors? Then again, if I were on the show and had the choice between Nigella and Marcus or Nigella and Anthony Bourdain, I know I who I'd choose. I might pick Nigella over Ludo but that's just 'cause he's so arrogant.

Thrive to spite them
I hate Ludo. The way he screams at his team and stuff. If I were a contestant and had my choice I'd go with Marcus or Anthony.
Nigella makes some tactical errors. Like going for sweets during the holiday competition when she said chefs generally donot go for sweets and Anthong specifically said the guest judge prefers savory food. Nigella had to know that and yet she picked a tricky dessert to pull off. Although maybe she had to when all the guys went with fowl. No one has roast or ham on Christmas? Because that's what I had growing up.

Poor Nigella, again.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
( man I miss TWOP because I could always drop in and read about random reality shows I was watching).
The forums at Previously.tv have many of the former TWOP posters...

Thrive to spite them
I didn't watch the first part and it's not On Demand for Comcast so I don't know what happened. But when it comes back on I'm going to try and watch it. I felt bad for Natasha, especially since she helped Jen with her dish. And I felt bad because she had Ludo scream at her, I know that's his "thing" but I can't help but think she was flustered because of his screaming and antics.
I almost wanted to see Dan and Natahsa to go against each other just to see if Ludo's head would explode.

I think Natasha would have thrived with Bourdain. Ludo, I just can't stand.

If you like competition shows, I recommend The Great British Baking Show. I'm currently watching it on PBS, so...check local listings?

I randomly turned on the TV show a little while ago and totally got caught up in an episode of that.

I did too, this morning.
