"Some Thoughts on the Blue Team" |
Let's discuss the Blue Team and its members, shall we? No need to be nice.Aaron should have been the one to get tossed tonight. Honestly, I feel badly for him. He's obviously overwrought. But that makes him a liability and not an asset. For heaven's sake, he took a 4-hour nap, then tried to "call it quits" later on. He says he wants to stay, but I don't believe it. I have no idea what Rock was thinking not putting him on the block. Josh is going to kill Gordon. You can see it in his eyes. He just can't take criticism. And it's *Eddie* that gets booted? For what, peppery risotto? At least he had some spirit.

I think Aaron is a plant to start the season off with drama..when was the last time anyone was treated with kid gloves by Ramsey? Also, don't rember last year there being a viewer descrition warning at the beginning of the show.
Looks like some of the females will be down dressing in order to attract the male viewers. Guess cooking etc will be put on the back burner (pun intended) this season and whiney male/s, dressed down female/s, and a more foul mouth Ramsey will be the format of the show. Last night was the ast of wasting time on this show. I will continue watching the other two cooking shows though....til cooking goes to the wayside for them also.

If he is playing a game he is doing it well to have fooled even Gordon.

People actually watch this show and like it? I tuned in for the first time ever last night and was appalled, totally. It isn't a cooking show or a competition, it is a freaking train wreck! Glad to see red pull it together, but a woman that works in a waffle house is on the show? Get real.As for the men, the only one that should have left was Aaron, or the whole kit and kaboodle of them. Geesh!

KO, I'd never really watch this show for cooking tips, but if you really want to see food competition you can't lose with those "challenge" shows they have on Food, or HGTV, or TLC, etc. They often have the same group of chefs and their teams and they do Chocolate Challenge, Dessert Challenge, Sugar Challenge. They've got a really serious panel of judges, a commentator.Talk about suspensful! And then there's the great Chili Cookoffs, the Great Hamburger Challenges. Those types of shows are all over the place. As for HK? pure culinary drivel, but evilly fun to watch.

Food Network Challenge, KOB! TV Guide/your cable guide might have it down by whatever the current challenge is (e.g., Candy Castles Challenge). They cover a huge variety of topics. Each show is stand-alone, like Iron Chef, though they do have some recurring chefs. There's a lot of cooking-as-art, but at the same time, taste does count, and there is a deadline. Before we canceled our cable TV, it was one of the shows my kids looked forward to each week, especially if the episode was about fancy desserts. Slice n' Dice's Sigpic Chop Shop 2004

Oh, KO, you're confused by the title.This is soooooo not a cooking show. If you've watched at least one episode, that has to be perfectly clear. Few of these people have any idea how to cook. Let alone work a restaurant kitchen. If you want to see people actually cooking, watch Top Chef. A lot of them have mad skills. But if you like watching DAWs get tortured, this is the show for you!!!!! "Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." Albert Einstein

I think Gordon is "being nice" to Aaron because he doesn't want to come across as a complete a$$hole. (And, if you've evr watched any of his other shows you'll see that he really isn't an a$$hole. It's all for drama in this one.)Aaron obviously doesn't belong there, but he is. What I can't figure out is why. He must be aware of his tendancy to become overwrought under pressure. He can't possibly think that this is going to look good on his resume. After watching him break down simply because someone asks him how he's doing I can't think anyone would want to hire him for their own kitchen. I agree that it was a strategy move on Rock's part to choose Josh & Eddie over Aaron. And, I think Chef didn't overrule him because he could make a case for kicking any of them out after their performance last night. After all, he kicked all of them out of the kitchen and had the women finish their service. Besides, Aaron really didn't do anything in terms of the cooking. Yeah, he took an extended time-out. But, that's 'cause Ramsay told him to. Even though he svcked as a server it's hard to fault him for their dismal performance in the kitchen. And, I think it's a toss-up as to who's gonna try to stab Gordon first. Vinnie ranks right up there in the odds with Josh, I'd say. Tribe pinned me up! blogging's scary

I can't wait for the American version, I'm hoping it's as good as the British one. I like how he can be really encouraging to younger chefs, even while kicking their butts. Hell's Kitchen is pretty much all kicking butts.

The problem with Rock's strategy is if you eliminate the people who can help you on your team too fast, your team is always the loser. Well, we'll see what happens. I personally was very impressed the women finished an entire service already. I don't remember either team doing so this early last time.

I also believe that Michael now owns his own knife shop, or online knife shop, or something like that. I don't have a link and I didn't see it mentioned in your link. But I could swear that I had seen something about this. Celebrating Pride with Syren

After last night's show: EARTH TO ROCK! COME IN ROCK! You show that you can make decisions, that you can be depended on, that you are a better-than-average executive in the kitchen. I wanna see if you can COOK too. Sorry, but I'm learning from you as I watch.BUT!!! Last night was a TEST! Don't let them see you SWEAT! Don's blow it like Keith did last season. Ramsey had a moment with him where he told him (Keith) he didn't know his own worth. Keith obviously was not ready to go to the next level and later EXPLODED on Ramsey. A HINT to ROCK! If you didn't pledge an African American fraternity, you have friends who did. Give them a call. Ask them what it was like and how their big brothers behaved and how they got through it. NOT by throwing glass and cussing. My opinion of you now under all this pressure is that you're GOOD. But you can get GREAT! For kitchen's sake man... just DO IT!!! I wanna be like you someday.
