Hey Tc not sure what the hell is going on maybe it had something to do with the last epi....But Nope No reunion show...and that's the best part!




I'm happy too, just wondering if they even tried doing one.





I read somewhere that Mia and Otto declined. Not sure I'd want to watch it either....I can't even watch reruns of this season...makes me queasy.





Hmmmm But they coulda' done it without them.

There's been talk on the internet the Bravo has editted the assault show so you can no longer see Elia laughing with her hair still intact as Marcel walks off. Anyone TIVO a recent repeat that can check? Supposedly she was cropped out.

Souinds like an urban legend to me, but since they editted it in the first place, if true, could be an indicator that they are trying to portray Elia in a positive light, if she has won the competition. That she betrayed Marcel still stands regardless.

Would not put it past them Holster..Jen and I both swear we heard Sam say stop it , let him go the jokes gone to far and when I saw the show two days later it was edited out...so who's to say? I know I was on Nyquill but I asked Jen about this cause I thought I was Hallucinating ..lol and nope she heard it as well clear as day!

Owww Keckler's recap is SCATHING this week.

And..well savvy..Don't wanna' say funny cause he isn't too amused.

I am still trying to process why this was so hard to watch..One thing...If Cliff had said ANYTHING to Marcel...Like..hey man we're gonna shave your head and was laughing...it would have been different for me...The silence is what gets me.Creepy!!!

Of COURSE Ilans screaming Come on come on... wasn't too fun to watch either.

IF they hadn't all been telling us how much they hated Marcel all season...if he had been doing that to Sam...it wouldn't look as bad...But would Cliff dare to do that to Sam????

I think NOT which is why it just doesn't seem like some cutesy prank to me...Hey..Sam never shaved his head.Wouldn't he be the one next to get held down in a MOCK head shaving ritual if it was such a cute boyish prank???
About the camera..Cliff's slip about a plan..I don't know.

Do I think Cliff wanted to hurt Marcel????...Not physically...no....But that sort of power 'prank' always hurts the 'victim' unless you are really good friends.

It did what it intended to do.......Humiliate someone.
It wouldn't even had been as bad if they had not continued...Following him and throwing chocolate bars on him....YUCK!!!!
My g/f always says.the way to measure a person is to measure how they handle power.





This was my take on this situation as well when we were discussing this at work & I was the ONLY one with this perspective. My co-workers were all saying that is was only a prank, Marcel is a little [expletive deleted], and that he should just suck it up. I was shocked, were we actually watching the same show???

Anyway I said to them, it would've been a prank if all of them had NOT professed their utter hatred of Marcel prior to that event.

And Yes, you bring up a totally valid point: Why didn't they tackle Sam & shave his head? That welsher!!! (I don't know the exact term for someone who backs out on a pact)

...Seriously....he couldn't wash his veggies cause Cliff had his in the sink....He asks VERY nicely..Can I wash my veggies..and then CLIFF has the noive to say he was pissing him off.......OVER THAT???.....CLIFF...OVER THAT????

Are these producers SO hungry for any kind of conflict they would even use that to stir the already boiling pot???

I mean every friggin little thing he does????

THEN....Ilan gets mad cause he needs a burner....he took up all 10. Is that why he wanted 2nd course???? ..What SHOULD have Marcel done??? ...




The thing about washing the vegetables...as I've said, the kitchen there is very, very small. If Cliff needed to wash the vegetables, why didn't he wash them and then remove them? To just leave them in a sink, in a kitchen with limited working space, is a major inconvenience to everybody.

For Cliff to say he was pissed over that is par for the course. Again, Cliff is the one who appears childish and immature here.

Yes, I think the producers are trying to spin this to the fantasyland stage. IMO, they wanted to show how the CrackPack was mad enough at Marcel to assault him, to try to lessen the backlash from the assault having occurred. Then, when their editing spin didn't work, they then tried to spin it off as a prank gone wrong.

And the Ilan/burner issue...if Ilan knew in advance that the kitchen facilities were so limited, and if he chose to go before Marcel, then there is always the possibility--given his obsession with Marcel--that he purposely chose a dish that would require a lot of burners and would limit Marcel's access to do his own course.

I doubt that they knew ahead of time that the galley was so small. But he may have conspired (we know Ilan's penchant for conspiring) with Sam/Cliff to go before Marcel, with the idea of inconveniencing Marcel where possible.

Both scenarios sound plausible, based on what we've seen of Ilan, his immaturity, and his obsession with Marcel.

But if they all got to the kitchen without knowing it would be so small, and Ilan's dish just happened to require all but one of the burners, then he really had no option but to use what he needed to in order to complete his course on time.

Someone said that some of the pans were empty and were just sitting on the rangetop, but I don't remember that.

I think their anger at Marcel for reminding them to close cabinet doors, etc. is in line with Cliff's anger about the vegetables in the sink. There are common courtesies that professionals perform when sharing galley facilities. That Marcel had to remind them of it made them look like they were not professional enough to remember to do it themselves...which is obviously the case.





This is very similar to when Marcel refused to take his eggs out of the pan so Ilan could make breakfast. Where the hate for Marcel's actions?


I don't see this as a similar situation at all. For one thing, the weren't competing at that time. There were no time constraints. And thirdly, he just was waiting about a minute or so until his toast popped up.

NOW..I think I came up with a really good point today..Why didn't they hold Sam down???

This keeps going through my head...He said he was gonna' shave his head he backed out..He would be the logical next in line????





Because Sam's that guy...you know...all of us knew him in high school or college...he doesn't participate in bad behavior but he doesn't speak up against it either...because...he's like too cool for all that...so he just sits back like the king and everyone looks to him to see if he approves...more power than he cares to have but then he just doesn't care...smile.gif




Well, when the biblical Samson got an unscheduled haircut, he kindasorta lost his "edge." Maybe that's Sam's story, and he's sticking to it? Once, in high school, I thought it'd be awesome to get an Annie Lennox buzz cut. It wasn't cool at all. I realized when I looked in the mirror that I was no Perssis Khambatta, not by any stretch of the imagination. I think it takes a really striking face to make the look work, and in most cases, you don't realize until it's too late that that face isn't yours.

We tend to make a lot of poor decisions when we've had a little too much to drink, and especially when we've had a little too much to drink and we're with others who can say the same the morning after.

I used to date the very same "that guy" you describe when I was in 11th grade. I thought he was actually a lot of fun at the time, so I guess maybe that says more about me than it does about him. Hmph.

One more thought...on Ilan calling Marcel every day. IF Ilan had won, he would have NO reason to call Marcel. Not to say Marcel won, but am pretty sure Ilan lost. Probably will be send packing this week. Will see, only 2 1/2 days left!!




But it's also possible Ilan did win and is calling Marcel daily to just continue taunting him. I mean, Ilan continues to lie about Marcel in published interviews and continues to mock him on his myspace page...so it could be part of his toxic sociopathic pattern of behavior.

Of course if Ilan or any of the brat pack win, it will be like the baseball players who use steroids...the victory wil be tainted, hollow and lacking any respect.






Either way, after the way Ilan acted on the show towards Marcel, and after his constant Marcel bashing in interviews, it's creepy.

LOL...maybe Ilan is calling Marcel to ask for a loan. Ilan indicated that he doesn't get paid much as a line cook.





Did you make up that "fact"?

By the way, Marcel is nothing more than a line cook, regardless of his pompous title.




Yeah but for a world famous worldrenowned Chef.
Does make a differnce , doesn't it???

Might Ilan be a tad jealous of that??

Ilan said he didn't make much in an interview btw!




Maybe Ilan is finally trying to apologize. Remember when Padma apologized to Marcel at judges' table for what happened to him? Marcel replied "No apology necessary from you." The key words there were "from you." Did you see the other contestants' faces when he said that? I think the only one who actually did apologize was Cliff.


Maybe.... but I don't think so. After all, they did have something like 3 mos. to cool off before filming the finale, yet the animosity seems to be peeking.

Perhaps his loins are aching.

Yeah I didn't want him to be a jerk.
I tried so hard to give him all the benfeits of doubt.
And I still think he's probably a great guy in many ways......But he can be a jerk!!!!

Carlos says he's sweet....I think he can be.
But in this situation..he kust looks like a jerk!
Maybe he has been knocked down a peg..Hey I was a jerk in junior high till I got chubby and everyone hated on me..I sure am a better person now because of it..I doubt Sam has ever been hated on.He reads the boards I'm sure and hears stuff..He ain't so worshipped anymore.






Well ...

:::glances around before using her still, small, tiny voice:::

... I still like him an awful lot. Maybe "looking like" a jerk and "being" a jerk are two different animals? I guess maybe I'm nutsy, but I still see something of worth and worthwhile there.

Gotta hate it when all your acolytes up and leave, I guess. I'm gonna stick it out for a while longer, though.

Well, if some declined to participate, it would be grossly unfair (not that THAT seems to bother Bravo) to have others talk about those absent without those absent having an opportunity to defend themselves. If Mia and Otto did decline, there's Mia's issues with Cliff and perhaps, given recent events, Elia. Otto may not want to talk about Lychee as well....he is after all an instructor at the culinary school in Las Vegas. Ouch.

More's the pity. I do hear tell that Charles is a fan of Elia's new look, as is Ringo, and Harry and Wills have been known to follow the Queen Mum's proclivities, which tend to favour Ilan.

Citing previous obligations, John & George have declined to comment. John, however, was overheard saying "Yoko, luv, could you please loan Talbot my passport?"

Have you'all listened to Tom Colicchio 's interview (by nasty Joyce) at Chowhound.com?
Great insight into judging, producers' role, reunion.....NOT a fan of Dave at all.

GREAT comment about all of us making judgment about the food...Tom C to message board posters: "Uhhh..did you taste it??"

Joyce gets n her dig on Marcel, but we already know she's a big supporter of the assault.

Nevertheless, worth hearing Tom C's views.

Wow...now I can totally see how people take something and redirect it and not it...The originalpost talked about why nobody held him down and shaved his head and I said it was because he's that guy...too cool to care...like an exboyfriend of mine...so what do you mean when you say "you'r not that girl"...?




Are you kidding? All these posts about how "Sam doesn't want to be 'that guy,' but they believe he is 'that guy.' I was making a play on words by saying I don't want to be 'that girl, as opposed to 'that guy' (because, hello, I'm not a guy)!

And "That Girl" was a TV show way back when starring Marlo Thomas. So, have I 'splained, or have I only confused things more?

There's been talk on the internet the Bravo has editted the assault show so you can no longer see Elia laughing with her hair still intact as Marcel walks off. Anyone TIVO a recent repeat that can check? Supposedly she was cropped out.

Souinds like an urban legend to me, but since they editted it in the first place, if true, could be an indicator that they are trying to portray Elia in a positive light, if she has won the competition. That she betrayed Marcel still stands regardless.






Would not put it past them Holster..Jen and I both swear we heard Sam say stop it , let him go the jokes gone to far and when I saw the show two days later it was edited out...so who's to say? I know I was on Nyquill but I asked Jen about this cause I thought I was Hallucinating ..lol and nope she heard it as well clear as day!




I watched the last half of the show this afternoon and I thought I must have blinked because I did not see Elia behind the wall doubled over with laughter. It appears to me that we now only see Marcel from the waist up as he walks away from Cliff.

She definitely was there (with a full head of hair) and now she’s not!

Yep. That's what I'm hearing. Looks like Elia won and they are spinning backwards as fast as they can. She best give half that loot to MIa!!!
She can keep the Kenmore though.

Hmmmm interesting tid bit from The Mansion.
a Master Cook position opening posted on 1/19/07.
Could it be that Marcel has given his two weeks?
Could this mean MC Foamy actually wins? LOL I will call this show Top Pity if thats the case LOL.

BTW read the description of the position. It sounds alot like a glorified Line Cook.

"It is the responsibility of a Master Cook to perform advanced cooking procedures under the direct supervision of the Chef, Exec. Sous Chef and Sous Chefs as well as to operate a specific station with others or by themselves and to enable other senior cooks to perform more rigorous or technically demanding operations. "

hmmm..maybe that rumor I heard about Marcel getting his own cooking show is true...????

I actually thought this was the most interesting comment.
Question: How real is reality television?

Answer: It's kind of like scripted reality. They spin things the way they want it.






hmmm..so basically he was saying that Sam is a weasel. hmmm.. interesting. Good fink there btw.

LOl. Not sure he's ready for prime time.

I was reading a bio of Joel Robuchon, who is considered the chef of the century...another perfectionist...no a chance he would tolerate anything but the best in his restaurants...very hands on. Interesting that both Elia and Marcel work for him, and to Elia's credit, as sous chef. That's an extraordinary ahievement for 23-year=old....which makes it even stranger that she didn't knoe that warm cream won't whip...but I digress.

the VERY cool thing Joel Robuchon said was that he only serves what he likes to eat. LOVE THAT! That is exactly what every chef should serve...only what they thenselves love to eat.

Merci, monsieur Robuchon!
