Brazil is not a backwater, impoverished wasteland. Surely, Cassia has had opportunities for success and happiness?
I've never posted on this show, but I had to interject. For the most part, Brazil is a terrible place to come from for those that don't have money.
The tourist spots are gorgeous, but just outside are the favelas. Dangerous slums. Full of gangs and poverty. Ruled by drug lords.
Not to say that Cassia lived in one of these, but I sure wouldn't want to live anywhere near one.

Mirna really annoyed me by invading Hero Dad's station/grinder without so much as a "Hey, OK if I use this?"

It's total bullshit. Remember it came out of the skank's mouth. There is no way in hell Eddie is only paying $1000 in child support. I work with a guy that makes $80,000 a year base-there are bonuses that take to about $110,000, but he pays $2000 a month for one chld.
There is no way in hell he is court ordered to that amount. Remember you can always tell if Brandi is lying. She is speaking. I know that is supposed to read "her lips are moving" but with the Skank, moving lips tend to bring other things to mind.
I'm embarrassed to say I know about this, but the overpaid money Brandi claimed was "child support" was actually spousal support- more specifically, a chunk of Eddie Cibrian's retirement fund. The amount was determined in 2010 (prior to her Housewife salary) and should have been adjusted when she started earning HW money, so his lawyers were looking for the overpayment amount. I believe Brandi had a new book coming out at that time, so no shock there.
I used to watch this terrible show but now my wife legitimately hates Brandi Glanville so we're off it for good. The comment about child molestation was the last straw.

there was also the one who wanted to buy teeth for his former heroin addict sister.
For me, that episode will always be Scott Conant Versus Tongs: Round 1.
When I go on Chopped, I'm playing for mountain lions with cystic fibrosis. It's the only thing I've come up with better than playing for my toothless sister.

I couldn't pick Santos out of a 2 person line-up. He'll be gone soon.

I don't think it's a head chef position anymore, probably more like a line cook, in which case all that stuff about Bryant's temper and not being able to lead is kind of irrelevant, as they wouldn't be leading anyone.
Ramsay's farewell comment: "Fernando's cooking was adequate, but his leadership was lacking. Being my next head chef requires both."

"I am made of cream. Give me your coffee."
"Babygirl, you're on speaker."
More, please.

As the great Khaleesi once said re: Chopped--- It's like Masterchef, except everyone is sad.
At this point, we know they're all sad. They have all suffered great tragedy/injustice. They have each risen from the ashes like a great Phoenix. GAG.
The best we can hope for are entertaining sob stories that make you spit up a little of your drink when you hear them.
"My sister has no teeth" is about the greatest you can come to the table with. Bravo, Sir.

In which ice cream is a substitute for substance on a show where no one talks to anyone about anything.
I think I missed the joke; why are 5 and 6 both Geena Davis?

Bryant would have been eliminated due to his craziness if nothing else. He screwed up scallops and didn't own up to it.
The scallops couldn't handle how much 'MO DOMINANT he was.
Color me impressed with Fernando's reaction or lack thereof to Bryant's faux-"Hold-Me-Back-Bro" routine. Little dude didn't flinch.
Bryant should be careful and think back to Fernando (Nando) Parrado from "Alive"- You just know he would totally eat the other contestants if push came to shove.

They ask you on the application "What are your plans for the money?"
I would just tape this picture into that section:

There's something about Aaron's physical appearance that drives me nuts too
Just one thing?

I'm always confused by Star of David tattoos like Steve's massive underarm ink. As I understand it, marking the body is forbidden in Judaism.
I used to think Mia Tyler was really cute in the 90's - back when Liv Tyler actually had a shadow for her to live in - but wow, she's a real bitch. Blatantly laughing at people having emotional breakdowns over the impending loss of a major life-changing opportunity for themselves and their families... Not cool, Daughter Of Mega Rich Rock Legend.
There were slavetrading Mayans in "Apocalypto" wearing less ridiculous accessories than Steven Tyler.

When Santos said "Mache" I thought for sure he'd requested Mush. Yeah, I'm a peasant.
Call me jumpy, but if I rolled first I'd pick a protein no matter what letter I landed on.
Bryant is one bad service away from shooting up an Arby's. That guy is mentally unstable and so, so sad.

While Chef Drew ( bet you didn't know he flies on private jets, not coach with us peons)
I didn't realize that he cooked for billionaires... He should have mentioned it.

Conant does seem to have a way inflated opinion of himself and his place in the chef pantheon.
Kind of like Infiniti, which is a Nissan with more makeup on. Maybe he's a perfect choice.

I found it really convenient that the one person that made "dog food" (honestly it didn't look too bad for a stew basically)
Give me a few pieces of toast and I would have made quick work of the "dog food."
I'm thrilled that so many dogs were able to attend with their owners. Especially Colonel Mustard and TheGuyWho'sReallyHappyToSeeGordon.

I want to fry something in one of those trendy Air Fryers and serve it to Scott. Because I have no respect for oil, butter, or authority.
*How long after Chopped goes off the air will it be before Scott's doing QVC spots for Conant Cutlery or Scotty C's Reverent Fish Fillets?

Loving Scott's "How fucking DARE YOU?" bitch-face after Amanda called Kristin's the best branzino fillet of the round. DOESN'T AMANDA UNDERSTAND FISH REVERENCE? !
*Not sure if anyone knows this but Drew has cooked for billionaires and diplomats.

Scott: "So these are the things that concern me about a chef with only four years experience. Butchering takes time to master."
Scott, I was on a fishing boat a few weeks ago and the 16 year old part-time deckhand named Lips had mastered fileting.
"I can't BELIEVE that's how she's handling this fish." "It destroys the texture of the fish."
Cool story, bro.
Get some real problems.

This was the best new show I've found for me and my 8 year old daughter. Her words: "these people are fun-competitive not mean-competitive." We came off watching a particularly heinous Masterchef season together this year.
Who knew... Cig's girlfriend was really cute! She must dig the hats.
Dina and Cig I think had the two best overall knights (their Death knights) but Drew truly had the better overall. At least for me.

Is anyone entertained by JP and Nikki? I know I'm supposed to be, but I can't stand either one and not in a "good television" way. Add in womanhating Dick and I'm just crossing my fingers for a sinkhole under the building.

Again, I didn't say that Cassia grew up in a favela. I don't deny that the city of Curitiba is lovely, but Curitiba is no exception to the poverty-outside-luxury rule.
Favelas in Curitiba, Brazil
Brazil's not all Rio de Janeiro, supermodels and four star hotels which is what most Americans get to see.
