And for those of you who missed it......I am Jim in NYC. My account and all my posts were deleted, no reason given, but if I had to guess, I'm thinking it's because of my frequent uses of "get-arounds"--using an exclamation point instead of an I, for example--for words that make the Bravo Board Censors wring their hands.

Fair enough. It's part of the Terms Of Use I clicked when I signed up. If this account disappears, too, it's been fun knowing all of you. If it stays, I look forward to many discussions in future.

Incidentally, I think we have a Top Chef first tonight. The three worst Quickfires were also the three on the chopping block.

Well I'm sure they're going to ax me next.

VISIBLY bad attitude, at that. Mark and Steph, like most on the chopping block, were standing at attention. Lisa, on the other hand, looked like a surly teenager called to the vice principal's office.



Yeah... She looked like that during the QF... complete with "angry lips".

From her bio it's easy to see Stephanie is a seafood chef. In order to succeed she needs to listen more to her siren of the sea in order to stand out and move ahead.

Oh, quit it!! Everybody knows coming into this situation that they're going to be away from their family.

Manuel missed his twins, and he got a PYKAG.

Frankly, I wouldn't mind some time away from mine . . . three, and they're all 21 months apart in age.

I'm wondering, too. All of the judges had suggestions for making Mark's dish better--but Tom basically said Stephanie's was completely hopeless and beyond salvaging.


Right! Completely hopeless, horrible flavors, PYKAG. Worst dish goes. It's all about the food. Oh, someone help me please! I can't reach my drink thru the BS!

What the heck was that?!!!!
I thought I was watching Top Chef, but I must have been on the wrong channel because all I got to see was the "Antonia Show" Blech!!!
Oprah's Chef was lovin on her from the QF to the EC
She was spotlighted for over half the show
I got really sick of all her "me, me, me, I, I, I, me, me, me, I, I" crap...
Maybe I'm just in a bad mood about Jim but Jeez, what a waste of time!!!!


Antonia is the most conventionally attractive woman competing this season. She'll get more "face time" if only for that. Why didn't she win a prize?

Stephanie has done better overall than Mark, but I don't have to taste chicken in peanut butter sauce over mushy overcooked couscous to know that it was foul.

So some weeks the guidelines matter and some weeks the best tasting dish matters, depending on which chef the judges prefer overall. I guess this is to prevent someone like Nikki from winning by being lucky?
