It’s hard for me to get behind a guy who gets in from LCK since he’s not subject to 5 weeks of the regular competition. If he loses before that then the actual cheftestants will never know he existed which would seem odd. They would be out plotting their own plot twist. He’s schroedingers chef LOL.
If the first contestant eliminated made it all the way through LCK and got back into the show, then they would have only competed in one quick fire and one elimination challenge prior to coming back in. So he's not missing 5 weeks of competition, he's only missing one.
I understand feeling like he's a ringer which he might be. However, the person coming in isn't going to have participated in 5 elminations and 5 quick fires, unless the person that comes back in is the one most recently eliminated.

I don't care about David or why he's not there. I'm just thrilled he's the fuck off my TV.
I'm pretty excited about Soo. Valentine was totally out of his league on the show. He seems like a good chef, and a nice guy even though he has this perpetually confused/shocked look on his face, but the time/ingredient constraints are not a format where he was going to shine.
Kenny's egg pizza looked revolting, and I really like Limburger. I thought Soo's eggplant looked so amazing that I ordered eggplant parm for dinner last night. Too bad it didn't have that sharpness Limburger would have given it.
I think Soo's real advantage is that he isn't coming off an exhausting QF and EC challenge and being thrown into something else, but that's always an advantage for the incumbent on LCK.

I finished the season and loved it.
I liked Arthur’s personality so much, but he was clearly cannon fodder. His had no where near the skill of the other artists. I also enjoyed him staying over, “I’m going to just ignore the brief and do my think and I should stay because I am the best” guy who made the smoke/skid mark.
I loved both final installations, but one was clearly more modern and moving the medium forward.

I think he is meant 5o be a kind of average nerdy guy who gets caught up in situations he never thought he would.
Oh, I get what he is supposed to be. I just find the character poorly done and harmless. The actor brings no fun to the role. He's dreary.

Too much jazz/bone breaking/contemporary/ballroom/swing/belly dance fusion. They get 30 seconds to dance and 4 minutes to talk.

I’d like to see more dancers and less talk. I can’t wait for the choreography round.

I like Jean and Dom together. They have a good friendship that could develop into something more.
Dom is like overcooked spaghetti to me. He can go at any time.

LV should be shamed for eternity for the poorly sewn zipper in Emma Stone’s dress. I wanted a Lily Gladstone win.
I am beginning to despise hosts knocking the honorees. People loved the 5 presenters system for the acting awards for a reason: they were beautiful tributes to the nominees. Much of the Oscars is a bunch of super pretty rich people patting themselves on the back. We get it. How about lean into it and talk about the good rather than the host ripping on people for 15 minutes? It’s a waste of time that could be used for the technical and behind the scenes award winners to give speeches. They’ve earned their moments.

Discussion of book differences.
SpoilerI get why the Spacing Guild and Guild Navigators were cut because it’s so tough to visualize, but damn, I love me some freaky mutant space folders.
I love Charlotte Rampling and she had me even behind that veil.
Rebecca Ferguson was excellent. Love her! Zendaya‘s best scenes were with Josh Brolin.
Not an Austin Butler fan after Elvis, but he was a revelation in this. He completely steered into the freaky and owned. I can see a supporting actor nomination for him. Those scenes on on Giedi Prime were amazing.
This film was an achievement.

I hope they did it to pair Gloria with Dom and free up Jean for Caron.

It's not Florence. *sigh* The UK is an episode ahead.

SunsetChaser is Florence, right? She’s in witness protection but found a way to reach Neville.

I love Idris but he was not good. Hosting these shows is a terrible job. It would be nice if they got someone who agreed to just be a boring complimentary host, not someone trying to be funny.
Tan France is annoying af. He can get off my screen.
I felt like the camera crew/director of the broadcast had never done an awards show before.

Is it wrong that I think that The Catcher in the Rye, Love Story and Jonathan Livingston Seagull are waaay too overrated?
My hatred of TCitR knows few boundaries. What a piece of crap. I loved Love Story but never thought it was great writing.

I thoroughly enjoyed this first episode. However, it was jarring to go from Commissioner Patterson floating in the water, blood spill out, to the super cheery theme song.

If you are looking for something else to watch may I recommend Falcon Crest, another 80s primetime soap. It streams on Prime.
I had no idea! I loved FC! Thank you.

17 minutes ago, JTMacc99 said:Super Bowl X for me. My neighborhood was FULL of boys, and we were all very into sports from a very young age. That game was Steelers over Cowboys, with Lynn Swan winning the MVP.
That was the 1975 season, game at the start of 1976. Here in the NYC area, our football teams were still awful, but that was the year that the Yankees got good again, and the first year that we all started collecting baseball cards.
From there on out I remember parts of every football season and every Super Bowl.
We share a first! I was five and wore my Terry Bradshaw jersey (with my pigtails) to my first day of kindergarten fall of 1976. I grew up in Ohio.

Gut punch series, right there.
I don’t know what Reid said at halftime, but it was the wrong thing.
@Bastet I’ll forget :) But thank you. I’m just hungry. It’s time to start drinking for me.

Season 21: Last Chance Kitchen
in Top Chef
Doesn't Soo have a Michelin star? It may be rigged for him to get in, but damn if he isn't a ringer. At this point, Michelle and Soo are my favorites. I like the Power Bottoms, but their cooking hasn't risen to the level of their cuteness. I also think Rasika is making good food, but I'm not excited about what she makes.
