I didn't watch last season, what did they do on Hell's Kitchen when they were down to the last couple of people? Did they still have to cook for the restaurant?
I'm trying to remember. I think eventually the two teams become one team, for a few round. I do rememeber when it got down to two chef's standing, they both designed their own resturaunts & menus in the Hell's Kitchen space and ran them for a dinner (but I can't remember what kitchen crew they used for that).
They had to design their own restaurant - from the room through the menu.
So - that may be where Julia will falter.
you know, I don't remember what happened when they were down to just a few. I do know that the first season when they were down to two, each set up a restaurant - decor, menu, etc. - and they were judged on that. I remember the one guy wanted an old fashioned NY style steakhouse. He didn't win.
At some point, there was a challenge where they had to create an original dish. The winning dish (last year's was created by K-Grease) was featured on that night's HK menu as a special.
ETA: This was prior to the Create Your Own Restaurant finale.
I remember something about bringing in their families ... and the humiliation of those whose famililes chose the other chef's meal.
Joey Fatone is going to host The Singing Bee.
Anyone catch Ice Road Truckers for this week? Those arctic divers impressed me. It must be hard to go under the ice knowing you may have to recover a driver's body. And the numbers of them. Ugh.
I was watching it, and I remember saying, "Holy cow if you think the truckers' jobs are hard!" at the pre-commercial diver-tease. But I missed the actual divers part. I must have been driving my nephew to rehearsal by then. Still- great show! I kept saying, "oh no way, not me man!" at the huge cracks growing in the ice as the trucks rolled over.

And knowing that if you're not careful, and your topside crew isn't careful, your body may joining that of the trucker in question.
