i apologize if i seemed insensitive earlier re kelly

this. my fam issuch a gd controlling one, i so see it.

i cant imagine a higher stress job than running a restauteant, cept maybe stock market

i am sorry you deal with that. life is hard enuff without dealing with diseases.

if she has this condition i do feel sorry for her, i dont want anyone having to deal with any disease. plus the added stress of running a restaurant.

and bulgy eyes. i forget the cndition but that is serious ailment, but iwonder if it is not induced by 'medication'. if i am wrong i apolg.

agree. it makes it seem like a circus rather than a 'legit' restaurant. and i know its all a show,but still one could keep it more dignified - the UK version of Kitchen Nightmares never had to resort to parlor tricks for entertainment.

omg that dessert room - willy wonka would have been proud

agreed too much music too often.

kyle is way forward in his personality, but he's likable...like a hobbit. i didn't get lulu pushing egypt's times, he's running appetizers, doesn't the appetizers station basically rule the timing? veggies are less forgiving than the protein stations.

i only recognized declan too, from his accent. lulu standing at the exit door is me in front of a copier, trying to decipher what the 'jammed' message means and how to fix it :)

anybody know why tv.youtube is not posting the most recent episode of Hell's Kitchen? i assumed it was delayed due to the world series but thats been many days ago. it is frustrating!

let's all just get along and see where it goes. i am quite sure we will move on from first impressions to ragging on the dishes soon enough. the first epi is always first impressions, so you have to forgive visual impressions first as thats all we have to go on mostly. (believe me my looks would frighten everyone here, so i know of what i speak. many interviews i have had, i can tell in 30 seconds what people are thinking of off the bat.) mods if i am out of bounds, feel free to delete.

i am totally wondering what duck with chocolate tastes like. i have had chocolate, but not duck. i cant imagine chocolate with any fowl. maybe on beef, if it had a spicy element, like a mole. i wonder how many offbeat things we will get - firefighters, army, farm challenges!!! catch the pigs etc. some of the antics are quite funny if not really valid for picking out best chefs. still entertaining. echo raiderduck: yeah me too on the piercings. i am sure they have nothing to do with hygeine just like earrings dont, but it adds (for me just my opinion) a nasty unclean kind of perception. this is likely just my age showing. i have zero probs with people with tats, myself included. piercings for some reason seem more "open". feel free to flame me :)

bit early in the season for that, that's more like towards the end. ya not a lot of eye candy in this selection imo. that's ok tho to me, a good character/person of drahma more than makes up for a pretty face. shame on uri not helping on the truck, i would have called him out right up front to establish hey there's no faves here. i love tackling people who out of the box wanna be the team boss. i dont mind brittany and her weird hat, she might be the comic relief for this season.
