oh, Spike finally gets to make his soup.
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

This elimination challenge is MEAN! I LIKE IT!

Because books.
The anvil of "Let's show off our sponsor's product!" by making them pack up and move food every week is so old, though.

So, Spike's official position is to shit on everybody else's dishes? Cause he's doing it like he's being paid for it.

I'm pretty sure I know who lost (no Polish in your sausage? you go home). And I think the guy with immunity may have been on the winning team. Can the immunity folks WIN the elimination challenges? Cause Richard seemed to do more for that one than Dale.

YES. I am so glad that the soup didn't win. It's petty and horrible, but it's true.
I think that the no polish sausage is going to be the killer. and frankly, if they didn't give me a shot, I'd vote against them.

I guess Carly was another "surprise" AI boot tonight, although I wasn't all that surprised since I totally called it last night. (Polishes her "AI Master Prognosticator" badge). Much like Michael, Carly was a good singer who was never going to win American Idol. I didn't think she'd even make top three. But I do hope that the show gets her a second shot because she obviously wants it so badly. Though I'm not sure that she's got that special "it" quality to make it happen.
And not that this is news, but dag y'all, people really hate Syesha. She tore it up last night and still didn't have enough to vault over Jason's fair to middlin' Memory or Brooke's Do Over-gate. Nonetheless, I think Syesha could totally sneak into the top 4 if Brooke continues to unravel at the rate that she currently is. Girl needs to spend a couple days with some very sweet three year olds.
The rest of the show was wholly forgettable. The judges were even more useless than normal, and Leona Lewis should not have come on the week after a true Diva like Mimi.

I'm sad at who got eliminated. I liked her. But, I agree that it had to come down to which dish tasted the best.

Agreed. Also, I called it right. Go team me! Though I gotta give Spike props on the soup - especially under the no-blender-move-it-to-the-house circumstances. It looked good. Though I REALLY want to try the steak tofu.

Wrod.

Honestly, I really think disregarding a challenge blatantly SHOULD be the killer, taste be damned. Not wanting to do Polish sausage is like not wanting to do tailgating, or condescending to the block party.
And not because I got the loser wrong, though I did underestimate how much they hated the aspargus dish.

On Top Chef, Spike is really ruining this season for me. In ways that other strong personalities (read: assholes) have not in seasons past. Good heavens, when will he go home?
