dabo 25344 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 01-29-09, 01:00 AM (EST) "Top Chef NY Ep 10" TOP CHEF BOWL! Hey, this was a really fun episode. After the disasterous Thanksgiving and Christmas themed episodes I'd hoped they were done with the shenanigans, but this Superbowl episode really worked. Except they didn't do tailgating food, that was a season or so ago. The head-to-head rounds of season 5 against past all-stars was great. Dunno how they picked those all-stars, I really had to try hard to remember some of them, I suppose they were available. Pile-on! Season 5 took an early lead, stretched it a bit, then Stefan suffered a big loss, the all-stars started to come back with Jeff taking another big hit. In the final seconds it came down to a field goal, all-stars missed, season 5 scraped by with the win! Whew, that was close! Jeff and the Euros in the bottom three, whodathunkit! It was almost too delish for words. Anyway, congrats to Carla for stepping up her game, finally, and scoring Superbowl tickets.   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

This whole episode was a bit of a fluke, IMHO. I think the judges, esp. Padma, was mostly trying to keep the score interesting, and really didn't judge on taste so much. Leah has been a dark horse, who, I feel, should have been sent home such a long time ago, and I just think it was the luck of the draw that she got who and what she got this time. I guess that's the way it goes in Reality TV. But again, I wish it had been HER, and not Jeff. He, Fabio, and Stefan, definitely did NOT deserve to be in the hall of shame by any means!! But, then again, it's not like they're vying for a spot on the Food Network, or anything that grand. On a side note: the only former contestant I remembered was the one who went up against Jeff, and I can't even remember her name now....Geez!   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

The judges overwhelmingly felt that venison was way overdone. OR maybe even Stefan...remember what happened to Ariana? She was on top most of the time, and then all of a sudden...GONE. It should have been Fabio, Stefan, then Jeff.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: Top Chef NY Ep 10" I have to admit, this episode marked a turning point for me...I decided that Stefan's douchery is kind of funny. When he said he was in love with Andrea because she stood up to him, and then called himself a "douchebag" for losing, I found him kinda charming. I know, I need help.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

dabo 25344 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 01-30-09, 01:08 AM (EST) 4. "RE: Top Chef NY Ep 10" LOL! No, you don't! Honestly, one of the highlights of this episode for me was how Stefan reacted to losing. You could tell that the others, even though they tried to hide it in front of Stefan, really did enjoy seeing him take that fall. Much as I enjoy his personality, he really didn't take losing at all well, it made for some good show.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Stefan really thought he had it in the bag, and then she blew him away with her chili. Surprise! I think most of us enjoyed watching his undoing.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

BlueIris 161 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Blistex Spokesperson" 01-30-09, 03:08 PM (EST) 5. "RE: Top Chef NY Ep 10" I loved this episode! It was so very satisfying to have the “stronger” chefs at the bottom. I laughed at Stefan for losing to Andrea, since he picked her thinking she’d be easy to beat. Stefan was his usual arrogant self, claiming that he hadn’t been on the bottom before so he had nothing to worry about. Really? Elimination is based on the current challenge, not cumulative work. Carla’s eye’s really pop out of her head! I'm happy she stepped up and won this challenge.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

ShellyMay 34 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Beauty Pageant Celebrity Judge" 02-02-09, 04:39 PM (EST) 7. "RE: Top Chef NY Ep 10" I'm curious about why a number of posters here and on previous threads called Jeff one of the stronger chefs there. I never saw him as strong, so I went online to see how he did in the previous challenges. He was bottom 3 in Ep 3 with the Foo Fighters. He was one of the three that got to go on TV in Ep 4, but his was the meal that both Meredith and Kathie-Lee spit out. He was bottom 3 in the Quick Fires for Ep 6 and 9. In Ep8, his pork dish was called "bloodless and anemic" by Toby. The only two real raves were for his tomato sorbet in Ep 5 (Gail's shower) and his fried green tomatoes in Ep 8 (cooking at the Farm). I always saw him as kinda middle-of-the-road, not going soon, but going eventually. Thoughts?   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Carla is just so animated, that she would make a good cartoon character. I'm not trying to make fun of her looks, but she bubbles over with her personality and the many emotions that show on her face. It's fun to watch her.

Funniest line: Jeff - "I played football. All the way through junior high!" Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it.

Yep - Bravo. Guess what I'm recording today starting at 6pm. Yep - Top Chef. Guess who feels stupid for not knowing Bravo was added in January until February. Yep- Me Agman took me to the islands   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
