Jarod (I'm not sure how he spells it) wears only one brand of clothing. I understand he has a stake in the company. He gets free advertising. He's not the bright bulb in the lamp so I hope he saves up some of the money he gets from the show. Brandi seems to be the smart one - how did she get involved with Jarod?

I read that GR has a degree in hotel management. The mother didn't need a degree to charge the sons rent. I bet the stoner dad is a barrel of laughs when he drives (let's hope he doesn't!)

Why would GR give this guy free room upgrades when he was wearing expensive jewelry? .. This episode made me want to throw something at the TV.

This season - Yawn - what a stunning and most amazing bore. Much of the drama was predictable and I, for one, am tired of GR yelling about raw scallops, overdone fish and raw chicken and wellingtons. Enough already! Scott seems like a nice guy and deserving of the prize - yet he was up for elimination a number of times. I DVR the show and fast forward through it; I may even stop doing that.

I dislike the direction this show has taken. I am especially tired of Corey calling his dad a "nerd.' He and the doltish Chumley are happy to through life riding motorcycles and standing around a pawn shop. By the way, is Chumlee really that stupid? I read somewhere that he has several cars, one being a Lamborghini. Not bad for a pawn shop dunce. Of course I assume all four of them are making a nice income. If they are paid for re-runs then they really are doing okay financially. Speaking of finances, in one episode the Old Man has Chumlee wash his car. Did anyone notice that it was a Bentley? They blurred out the hood ornament but Bentleys have a distinctive front. I read he has an extensive collection of cars - all of which are black. This show is much nicer than the three sharks on "Hardcore Pawn"- they seem to prey on poor people with low prices and they have little respect for thier clientele.

The show gets faker and faker. Last week there was the phony calendar press conference. This week was the ridiculous "tail gate" party. I've seen the USC band in action and he had only four pieces.The Trojan band must have at least 300 members. Then there was the food. I have tailgater friends who live for NY Giants home games - they sure wouldn't be grilling fish. My pick is for Joy to be a finalist. with maybe Scott or Jason.

Offal smoothie - my favorite. I love when Gordon tells everyone to drop what they are doing and come to the pass where he either yells about a poor dish or shows the cooks (they're certainly not chefs) a perfectly cooked wellington. Of course while they are up front every thing they are cooking is sitting unattended for the most part. By the way, I thought wellingtons where passe - like chicken ala king. does anybody know what is served in his marvelous, amazing restaurants?

When will I be able to buy this most amazing and stunning calendar? I hope it features recipes for risotto, scallops and beef wellington.
