I have really enjoyed Top Chef this season, i thought the cast was excellent, and have actually saved some of the episodes to try to recreate the recipes…concerning Top Chef, i did miss the chefs picking out the decorations and such, maybe it’s just me, but i always got a kick out of seeing the chefs try to create the WHOLE restaurant scene, from beginning to end.

Agree with Becky, Flipping Out really depressed me, i prefer my divorces with 8 kids and a “nanny banging” husband…not between a couple of guys i actually cared about.

I have stopped watching Real Housewives New Jersey, Atlanta, and maybe, just maybe, will check in on the first episode of Orange County…Housewives have become like the reality show “Survivor,” a bunch of backstabbers looking for their shot of fame, rather then what i was watching it for, looking at how the rich live, work etcetera…i mean what i saw last year was like some of my “former backstabbing” friends, except with better shoes…and i don’t need cable for that.

Seriously, I was beginning to think that I’m the only one who watches Bravo this much! So glad I found your site. In case you haven’t had enough RHOA commentary, I wrote my own at http://mamashauna.blogspot.com/.

I think Jen is really anxious. The few times she hasn’t done well, she takes it very hard. She’s probably used to always being the best and losing a few times hasn’t been easy.

Hm well Top Chef is losing me to The Next Iron Chef, which is fun and campy. It’s obvious who will be in the TC finale, and ho-hum one of the brothers most likely will take it home. ho hum again.

Is it just me or does Jen’s heart not in it? She seems bored most of the time and though I’m rooting for her don’t see her making it to the end just due to the blase attitude towards the challenge. I would like to see Kevin sweep in and hack his way, red Viking beard, and all and take the crown.

Stopped watching Flipping Out this season, as it was too depressing. Personally, I use television for escapism and seeing the final “divorce” between Jeff and Ryan is just too painful. I wish them both the best, but I imagine, like any relationship, both were partly to blame and both are partly innocent.

Million Dollar Listing – have no interest in watching.

Real Housewives – stupid series of fake shows that I also don’t watch.

I meant to add…. since they didn’t have to do the decorating, etc., they could spend all their time making excellent food.

Although I don’t know how excellent the food actually was. There was a teenage meltdown going on in my house right about then and I was a bit distracted.

I think a good part of the reason this was the “best” restaurant wars was that they didn’t have to spend precious time decorating the restaurant, picking out linens and tableware, and all that extraneous nonsense as in seasons past.

Is what Eli was wearing what passes for “dressed nicely” these days? An untucked shirt under a sport coat? That just looked sloppy and lazy to me, no matter how casual the restaurant or hip the clientele. I would have loved to see Robin tell him to tuck in his shirttail hahaa!
