Mitch better hope his team wins. Because he is the guy they would vote out if they lose. And Darlene seems worried she would be the one on their team. Of course if Mitch or Darlene has the best individual craft on the losing team, then it gets interesting.

We realize from the promo (2 judges wanting different winners) that they must be close with their finished products.

I hope Kimberley gets sent home today. I have had enough of her.

That button bracelet of Amy's is ugly.

WTF was Amy thinking with that bracelet? Oh wait...she wasn't! FUGLY!

I haven't figured out if I like Mitch or hate him. But I do enjoy listening to his cattiness.

I think that voiceover Mitch just did with him in the tie, was done after the show. Because he said for her to serve the judges apple pie like the one she did the first week of the show. Do you think he would remember that well?

I completely agree. He's pompous, almost in a Doug Wilson sort of way. And I *heart* Doug, but I'm still undecided about Mitch.

On the previews after lastweek's show, I thought they showed Kimberly and Mitch arguing. However, this hasn't happened. Do you guys think that will be from next week's show?

If so they are both safe today.

Loree,

Do you remember seeing the previews?

I remember seeing them fighting. But I don't remember where they were or what they were doing. Maybe they just edited it out of this week's show?

What did that guy have in his pockets?

I dunno. STRANGE!

have been far easier on the teams this week than in the past.

I love watching Darlene's face.

Oh Mitch is going to love this power of selecting...

Micth will break-up Kimberly and Dawn! WOO and HOO!

This makes me wonder if the judges knew the one that was Mitch's project because they talked about how knowledgable he was. They almost started talking as if they see him as better than those left.

Did anyone else pick-up on that?

I was sure they knew which was Mitch's. They know he does all those type of things and they remarked on the nails, etc. I think they knew the women would send him home and they wanted to keep him around.

This is really looking like it will come down to a Mitch vs Darlene showdown.

I agree and after tonight I am even more convinced. However, after the judges saying what they did tonight and how Mitch is now showing up in the confessionals in a tie...I am leaning towards him winning.

I want to see how the confessionals are handled next week. It just looks like all of sudden Mitch is getting a very professional edit.

I was so excited that Kimberly lost. I did not like her from the first show when she cried. As time went on, my dislike for her grew. Then, the previews for next weeks show came... and there she was again. Damn. I really like Mitch. Did anyone notice he picked out "everything" tonight? He has talent. I totally agreed when he said Kimberly and Dawn do not come up with anything orginal. Kimberly's pillow was embarrassing. Her flowers are ugly. I see her future in this... Dollar Store Spokeswoman.

Yes next week is the Reality Show point when the losers come back. I barely remember some of them. And it looks like Mitch gets hurt. Maybe Kimberley smacks his finger with a hammer.

So anyone know how Team Artisan could confuse the furniture they picked? Seems like Kimberly purposely picked the wrong furniture to do so they end up with only 3 refurbished furnitures and so will get picked by the judge to be the team that need to eliminate a member. I think Kimberly purposely picked the wrong furniture hoping either she or Dawn's individual project wouldn't be picked as the 2 worst so one of them could eliminate Mitch. Also, Mitch noticed what Kimberly was doing with the table and didn't correct her.

I want Mychael to come back until the end, she never should have been voted off!! This isn't Survivor, these people need to have skills in order to have a tv show, not stupid alliances with no talent people to win this thing!!

< think Kimberly purposely picked the wrong furniture

I think she just picked the table to decoupage because that was what she wanted to do. And excuse me, but what talent did her project have other than cutting skills and lots of patience? That woman has a huge ego - too bad her talent isn't in proportion with it. Does she seriously think people would warm to her enough to watch any show she was on?

I can't stand Mitch either, but at least he has some talent. I was so glad the judges could spot the double talk he puts forth.

It's my understanding that the producers have a huge say in which team stays and which one gets sent to the garden each week. I have to wonder if the judges were urged to take Kimberly down this week.

What's the big deal with those flowers Kim makes? Again - they're pretty, but they don't show creativity. Can't.Stand.The.Woman.

Everyone is entitled to my opinion.

I was so glad the judges could spot the double talk he puts forth.

I don't recall them talking about "double talk". Rather, I took it that they were saying he talks alot but he knows what he is talking about and he is knowledgable of the topics...is that what you call "double talk"?

I thought the judges were giving Mitch a HUGE compliment in that they think all the women talk but never say anything worth while but they do think Mitch has talent and can talk about it with knowledge of what he is doing. To me, that is huge in a competition like this because the judges are showing me that they are now thinking of the person that can pull-off a television show as well as having talent and being able to talk to people about it. IMHO.

Bobby Flay commented that Mitch always had an answer and could talk his way out of anything.

Mitch has such an ego he makes Martha Stewart seem shy. However, I realized last night that I really don't want him elimated as he is at least interesting. Amy, Heather and Dawn are really non-entities in my opinion. Darlene and Mitch are the stars and possess the most overall talent.

In most cases, I have not been disappointed with who was dumped. I know Mychael is terrific, at least with cooking (we never saw her do another darn thing. Darlene is terrific at cooking, sewing, many talents). Anyway, I could not stand Mychael from the first show, but I was STUNNED when she was voted out. I would never watch a show she hosted, though. My fave from the git-go is Darlene. Talent, personality, she's got it all in my opinion. Maybe she and Mitch could host a show together!

Also, one thing that kinda puzzles me. Denise went over to the other team as a result of "a draw." Darlene was chosen by the team that got her. Mitch had the best personal project for his own team. Why is it different each time? It was funny to see the elation of the Beavers, and the despair of the Artisans when he went, though!

Also, getting back to the subject of Mitch's talking and knowledge: didn't the judges notice he never gives anyone else a chance to talk?

I love this show! So happy to discover this forum. I never watch reality shows, haven't seen even one episode of Survivor, Great Race, Bachelor et al. But this show had me from the beginning!

Bobby Flay commented that Mitch always had an answer and could talk his way out of anything.

Yes he did but he also went on to say that Mitch knew what he was talking about. I took that to mean that even though he had an answer, he wasn't BSing you!

I think the whole thing is going to be between Darlene and Mitch. The others just don't have the all around talent that Mitch and Darlene seem to have.

Actually I thought it was Candace who stated Mitch knew what he was talking about. Regardless of what the judges said, we know he can make it up as he goes along...

I'm doing the celebration dance now that Kimberley got hers.

Anyone want to join the conga line?

Everyone is entitled to my opinion.

Im in. Oh, I just thought of something else. Does anyone else think that Kimberly was "on something" last night? She sounded slow and slurry.

At this point, focusing on the prize at hand.... A show! I like,

Mitch and Darlene... with Mychael being a regular guest chef on the show.

I was a little worried about this episode, but it turned out pretty well. Not much time to talk right now, I'm busy working on my summar!

I was so glad that Kimberly was voted out.

I did just have to laugh at Mitch though. I don't know how he came up with his story about the table so quickly. The looks on Kim & Dawn's faces were hilarious. They had no clue what to say about why the table had not been done. I really can't stand Mitch's ego, but I have to admit, he did give one great line of crap to the judges on that one.

With all of that, I just really don't see him being the winner. I'm going with Darlene in the end.

I'm really enjoying this show despite its flaws. Like most others, I feel Mitch and Darlene should be the final two. Yes, Mitch has a big ego, but he has talent to back it up where many of the others didn't.

I wonder when the creators figured out their big flaw with the show, if they ever did. You never let the other team members pick who leaves on this type of show. It's fine on Survivor, but the person that wins this show is supposed to have a talent. Like Apprentice or American Idol, the judges or the public should pick. With the way they vote on this show either the most talented or the one that switched teams is sure to go if given the opportunity.

The individual projects are also kind of dumb. A person could do everything for the group project and have a sucky individual project and get booted. That doesn't seem fair. The judges could pick the two worst projects and then decide which one of the people go by reviewing everything they did on the task. That would work.

Also I'm glad someone mentioned the different ways they've evened out the teams. A little consistency would be nice. Did the judges not know Mitch would be a target when they moved him over with Kimberly and the other one? What kind of a reward is that?

But after Mitch's project was picked at the best I wondered if the judges knew it was his and knew he'd be booted if he wasn't the one voting. After weeks of seeing everyone's styles and talents wouldn't you think the judges would be able to tell by know who did each project?

<After weeks of seeing everyone's styles and talents wouldn't you think the judges would be able to tell by know who did each project?

Yep, I'd say that's exactly what happened. CBS doesn't want anyone like Kimberley or Dawn, so Mitch was the golden child this week.

Everyone is entitled to my opinion.

Well, the pillow was unbelievably fugly.
