God I can't wait to see which ones end up bombing this one.

Yes I'm a mean mean person.

[bicentennial_baby]

14. High end maple syrup?!

Wtf? I'm guessing it was maple syrup vs table syrup. Two totally different animals.

[GOPisEvil]

15. This is an interesting test!

I wonder how I'd do. :scared:

[bicentennial_baby]

16. Wtg Hung v2.0...

Let's hope her food is better today. :D

[Symarip]

22. WHAT NETWORK?!

I'm smoking a couple pork butts and I'm bored out of my mind.

[GOPisEvil]

BRAVO!!!!!!

[Symarip]

27. Thanks.

I never watch TV but I can't leave and I can't go to bed. And, it's fitting since I'm being a 'top chef' myself.

[Fox Mulder]

23. Bravo.

[Ekirh]

24. Bravo N/T

[GOPisEvil]

25. Oh, shite! Cooking for other chefs. This could get FUN!

[Fox Mulder]

26. This element thing is pretty cool.

I can't wait to see how it goes...

[Ekirh]

Earth, Water, Fire, Wind?

Where the fuck is Heart?

How can you summon Captain Planet!!!!

Umm.. sorry wrong show :(.

[Fox Mulder]

[bicentennial_baby]

33. Hey you!

:bounce:

[tammywammy]

44. Hi!

I'm in looove with this show.


I see some fighting about to happen.

[bicentennial_baby]

31. Seared beef around deviled egg?

Errrr...

[GOPisEvil]

32. Ok, Mini Hung is actually thinking beyond the literal. I respect that about him.

Edit - his IDEA isn't all that great though in this case. :D

[bicentennial_baby]

34. I"m not sure how it'll go over...

Hmmm.

[GOPisEvil]

36. See my edit.

We know who the target of his rage is now. :D

Unless we are duped by the editors again.

[Ekirh]

35. Seems like after commercial break . .

The F word will fly!!!!

[bicentennial_baby]

37. We can only hope

:D

[Ekirh]

39. Please I just watched two episodes of Kitchen Nightmares

MY curse word quota is already over the limit :).

[johnnie]

38. Shit. Just tuned in

I forgot about it.

[GOPisEvil]

40. Ya know...I can see both side of the big fight....they both have their points.

[GOPisEvil]

41. Oh fuck you, Spike - you just want to control everything.

[bicentennial_baby]

42. Spike...You are not Malarkey!!

:mad:

[Ekirh]

45. Not any of them?

:P

[bicentennial_baby]

51. Nobody can compete with my Malarkey!

:rofl:

[Fox Mulder]

43. I hope to god that hat man goes home tonight.

He's an ass.

[tammywammy]

48. Me too

He's a jerk!

[Fox Mulder]

49. I'm sure he'll stick around because he makes for good tv.

:eyes:

[Symarip]

46. I'm not a fan of fake mohawks.

Fauxhawks or whatever.

[GOPisEvil]

47. Left over money at Whole Foods?

:rofl:

They don't call it Whole Paycheck for nothing!

[Symarip]

50. The salmons sounds good.

I should smoke some salmon some time.

[Ekirh]

52. Prawns and bacon!!!!

mmmmmm bacon . . . bacon...

umm sorry... I'm back.

[tammywammy]

55. Two of my favorite things in the same dish!

*drool*

[Ekirh]

53. DELETE N/T

[bicentennial_baby]

54. Duck = Air ??!

:wtf:

Heavy bird...hm

[GOPisEvil]

58. Hey - they float!

:P

[tammywammy]

59. Um, air, breathing, ducks breath air!

[bicentennial_baby]

70. That's some Clintonian logic right there...

:P

[tammywammy]

76. LOL

[GOPisEvil]

56. That Lisa is a feisty bee-yotch!

:D

[Ekirh]

60. She can be the bitch everyone hates don't you know N/T

[bicentennial_baby]

57. Nikki bugs me...What's up with her hair?

x(

[GOPisEvil]

61. She has been bugging me all along.

However, I hear she makes a hell of a pasta. :D

[bicentennial_baby]

64. Ha!

Same here.

[Fox Mulder]

62. Richard is kind of a dork, isn't he?

I like him.

[tammywammy]

67. But he's that good kind of dork

He's like a few of my friends. The kind you can make fun of for being a dork and they laugh. :)

[Fox Mulder]

72. He is.

[bicentennial_baby]

63. Don't try to second guess Collichio...

The man is fierce! :rofl:

[Ekirh]

66. Heh the Richard Blaise Charm . .

I think Tom is charm proof HA!

[bicentennial_baby]

69. Indeed!

Although he liked Stephen the sommelier :D

[Ekirh]

73. I actually missed the first season . .

I didn't start watching until the second. . . so instead of getting Harold, Stephen and Tiffany.. I get Mikey, Marcel, and Ilan.... and head shaving thrown in as a bonus.

[bullwinkle428]

65. Poaching fish isn't trendy enough for Tom??

:eyes:

[GOPisEvil]

68. The air people should have gone with either a mousse or mini souffles.

[bicentennial_baby]

75. Better yet...a Marcel-ian foam!

:D

[GOPisEvil]

78. Hell yeah - a foam on top of a mousse!

An angel food cake for dessert!

[bicentennial_baby]

81. But it's not the same without that Wolverine hairdo!

:D

Ooh, I just saw Casey on the commercial! :bounce:

[GOPisEvil]

86. A friend of mine knows Casey's parents!

They live here!!

She's supposed to be here this weekend, and I will be out of town. x(

[Symarip]

71. I dig Top Chef the few times I've caught it when I'm watching TV...

But the rest of the shows on Bravo look less than stellar.

Edit for missing words.

[tammywammy]

74. I haven't watched that dancing show

Looks stupid.

I loooove Project Runway. :loveya:

[Symarip]

77. Neither do anything for me judging by looks

But then again, I'd rather listen to records than CDs.

[Symarip]

79. The bald guy impressed me with his love of BBQ on the commercial.

I want to party with him.

[Fox Mulder]

80. Gail is looking good tonight...as always.

[bicentennial_baby]

82. "Burnt, brown, dry, rubbery eggs!"

:rofl:

[GOPisEvil]

83. God, I love that woman!

:D

[Ekirh]

84. I still love

That Dish made me Nauseous!

[bicentennial_baby]

85. I feel that Spike's hat is douchebaggish...

:P

[Fox Mulder]

I'd have to agree with you there.

[GOPisEvil]

90. He scores high on the douchebaggery scale.

[Ekirh]

87. "Only a couple of pieces with scales on them"

Now watch the judges get the scales.

Edit: Or maybe then didn't

so I get to continue being wrong YAY!

Edit: Or did they and I missed it who knows lol.

[tammywammy]

91. Of course!

[VenusRising]

88. Hey TopChef lovers.

:hi::loveya:

[bicentennial_baby]

92. Hey baby!

:loveya:

[VenusRising]

I usually miss your threads by a few hours.

I reminded myself tonight! :hug:

[bicentennial_baby]

136. Yay!! I'm in a terribly bad mood, but...

I always have love for my Top Chef homies. :D

:hug:

[VenusRising]

146. I'm sorry that you're in a terribly bad mood.

I hope that things get better quickly. :hug::hug::hug:

[bicentennial_baby]

89. Scales on the fish...Ut-OH!!!

:o

[tammywammy]

93. They love the bacon shrimp!

[GOPisEvil]

94. Who invited Amy Winehouse to Top Chef?

[Fox Mulder]

95. You know, I was just thinking that.

:rofl:

[bicentennial_baby]

96. !

:rofl:

[GOPisEvil]

97. Yikes! The Earth is in TROUBLE!

[tammywammy]

98. That hat has got to go!

[Fox Mulder]

99. That shrimp dish looks really good.

My mouth is watering.

[Ekirh]

100. OH SNAP!

They experienced scales!!!

[VenusRising]

101. Everyone loves BACON!

:bounce:

:rofl:

[bullwinkle428]

102. Zoi's a dead woman walking...this is why Jen is so upset in the previews!

[bicentennial_baby]

105. Typical Top Chef foreshadowing...

:eyes: I wish they'd make it a little less obvious.

[bullwinkle428]

107. At least it was consistent - the "lack of seasoning" thing has been there

with her for several dishes...

[GOPisEvil]

103. I like that Richard can blame himself (in private anyway).

We'll see if he tosses anyone under the bus later.

[Fox Mulder]

104. I've got a feeling that someone from team water is going home.

Having scales on your fish is unforgivable.

[GOPisEvil]

106. I disagree. That dish was all Richard's and he's been really good so far.

Everyone gets to have a bad day.

I think the earth folks are in trouble.

[Fox Mulder]

108. Yeah, but having a bad day on Top Chef...

will get you sent home.

I guess we'll see...

[bullwinkle428]

110. Tre last season...one bad perfromance, and GONE! I think they

like Richard too much to dump, though...

[GOPisEvil]

111. I think Richard will be in the final three. He's pretty damned talented.

If he can ever get past trying to impress people, his food seems to be good.

[Fox Mulder]

112. I hope he is.

I really like him and he has a lot of skill.

[tammywammy]

109. I think it's Earth in trouble too

[GOPisEvil]

113. Looks like Team Turmoil is the big winnah!

[Ekirh]

114. FIRE!!!!!!

Damn despite Lisa's worries... they got it!

Edit: For the record.. in my opinion wrong or right.. the bacon won it for them! CAUSE BACON RULES!

[tammywammy]

118. Yea!

Bacon Shrimp!

[Fox Mulder]

115. Alright...go Fire!

And Lisa gets the sweet trip to Italy. :)

[GOPisEvil]

116. HOLY CRAP!!!! What a prize that is!!!

It goes to Lisa!!! Wow.

[Ekirh]

119. AND LISA WINS!!!

GOOOO BACON!!!!!!

[bicentennial_baby]

122. Ha!

How about that! Behold the power of bacon!

[VenusRising]

126. I'm so happy for her.

She really stood up for herself during the challenge. I was worried she was going home with as much as they were showing her.

[VenusRising]

117. Yay for the Fire team.

:applause:

[GOPisEvil]

120. She made bacon and she gets a trip to Italy?

:rofl:

[Ekirh]

123. Someone is in denial

When it comes to the power of Bacon!!! (I'll stop once Top Chef is over honest!!!)

[GOPisEvil]

127. Well, she also combined the miso and the syrup, so there's that...

[Ekirh]

128. Pfff details details . .

:P

[bullwinkle428]

121. WOW...a little better prize than one of Padma's cookbooks!

:rofl:

[bicentennial_baby]

125. !

:spray:

[Fox Mulder]

124. Hasn't Spike been on the bottom of every episode so far?

[GOPisEvil]

129. Rosemary in the mushrooms is Zoi's undoing.

[tammywammy]

130. Damn, should have done the soup!

LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!!

[Fox Mulder]

131. And now it starts...

[Ekirh]

132. Cue the Drama N/T

[VenusRising]

133. Should have gone with the soup.

D'oh.

[GOPisEvil]

134. Oh oh....Spike is going to go off, I think!

I thought the soup was a good idea, too. :shrug:

[Ekirh]

135. Tom: I want to get rid both of them....

OUCH!

[tammywammy]

137. I'd like to get rid of both of them!

[bicentennial_baby]

138. Down with Spike!

Please gawd!

[tammywammy]

144. I'm hoping

[GOPisEvil]

145. I think Tom sealed Zoi's fate. She is a goner.

Her meal last show was supposedly all about bold colors and flavors and it wasn't. Now this dish... Bye Z.

[Fox Mulder]

141. I hope to gods it's Spike.

[Fox Mulder]

139. God damn...Hung's team won and he bitches...

[GOPisEvil]

140. Whoo!!!! Mini-Hung volcano erupts in minutes!!!

[bullwinkle428]

142. Little Hung freaking out about not getting the prize!

I LOVE IT!!!

[LynneSin]

143. WHEEEE I have a laptop with internet and in front of my TV

Of course I spent my time doing income taxes

[eyesroll]

147. Groovy "wine in a box" commercial.

Where's Midlo?

[GOPisEvil]

148. There will not be a "Step It Up And Dance - Season 2"

Going out on a HUGH limb there...

It will go in the dustbin along with Top Design.

[tammywammy]

One can only hope

[fishwax]

168. Top Design is actually coming back for a second season

or so I've heard. "Shear Genius," on the other hand ...

[GOPisEvil]

149. CALLED IT!

:D

[bicentennial_baby]

150. And it is...Zoe!!

x(

[tammywammy]

153. I know

:(

[Ekirh]

151. And the axe falls down on . . .

Zoe is gone :(.

Spike lives to see another day.. that should make Bi Baby oh so happy :)

[Fox Mulder]

152. Aw crap.

Zoi's going home. :(

Hat Boy gets to stay another week. x(

[VenusRising]

154. Bye Bye Zoi!

Has anyone ever pulled mushrooms off on this show. It seems like an unlucky main ingredient.

[johnnie]

155. Looks like the third producer's choice in a row

[Ekirh]

156. Oh hell . .

Spike's going to get his say in now.

[tammywammy]

158. That was WEAK!

[GOPisEvil]

157. Yes, Antonia, you DID say you wouldn't do the soup.

[Ekirh]

GRILLING NEXT WEEK!!!

Next week should be amusing . .



Wait Wait wait "Cheap Porno" next week? OH NOE!

[GOPisEvil]

159. Actually, *cringe* I'm with Dale....

Lisa bithches and bitches and bitches, but no one else can.

[bicentennial_baby]

162. Hey man, this isn't GDP

:P

[GOPisEvil]

165. So I don't like Lisa, I'm a SEXIST?!

Oh, you said it's NOT GDP. Sorry.

[bicentennial_baby]

166. And I'm a racist!

:o

:rofl:

[bullwinkle428]

167. Yeah, she doesn't seem like the most pleasant person to deal with...

:scared:

[bicentennial_baby]

160. Mmm, Jocks and Chefs next week!

:rofl:

Cheap porno? :D

Bring it on! :bounce:

Until next week my loves! :hi:

[LynneSin]

161. BEST SEASON YET!!!

Man I was ready for a fist fight!

[Ekirh]

164. You got plenty of season left!

Be patient!!!! :)

[Fox Mulder]

163. Looks like more drama next week.

I'll be watching. :D

[Richardo]

169. I haven't read any of this thread because of spoilers, but...

just wanted to let y'all know that I'll catch up on this week's show and join you next week (we had company this week).
