The Solution

Basically everything (except maybe Cesar's dish) in the QC looked disgusting, but that wasn't their fault. Again, I would have been happy to eat everything (except maybe Vinny's dish) in the EC. Yes, even Bailey's dish although I still wish she came with a volume control. Lana's dish actually sounded really good to me and I don't normally like that kind of food. The judges made the right decisions today.

Jose Andres is like a Latino stepin-fetchit. "Jes, Miss Marthas. Tee-hee, I love joos." Reprehensible.

In a show full of the most juvenile and inappropriate humor that I can't get enough of like dick pics, manscaping, cum drawers and Judy thinking that her brothers pleasure themselves while thinking about her, the thing that made me LOL for actual minutes was Kelvin calling Eli "Wrinkles".

You said come. Tee-hee-hee. Yes, I have the sense of humor and the emotional maturity of a 12-year-old who just discovered self-pleasure last week. That's why I love this show. And it cracked me up that BJ is an optometrist at the PigglyWiggly.

Doing a rewatch of this series and cannot get enough! Makin' my naughty bits all tingly.

Rewatching this now and think it's unbelievably hilarious. What kind of big ass stick did I have up my stank? Making me concerned about what kind of life experiences I've had over the past 6 years...🤪

That could be pretty interesting... cheftestants arranged by psychological issue.

I'm just waiting for them to ask Joni Mitchell amd/or the real Bob Dylan to come on and do a pole dance. (Yeah, I'm old.)

I forget what, but there was a word in the sketch that made me say "uh-uh, Trump does not know that word!"

Again, with one exception, such a talented and likeable group of chefs. Felt terrible for Tristan's loss and doubly happy for his win in light of that and the way he handled it. I have to vent a little bit and say that I find Bailey to be incredibly self-absorbed, almost to the point of being psychopathic. Paula was punished unfairly for falling on her sword, although Shuai was horrible as FOH. You NEVER say something like "I'm tired" in a public-facing position like FOH. I really think both of those poor performances can be tied back to Bailey and her time management and other flaws. To end on a positive note, Massimo HAD me as soon as he referenced Goodfellas and Karen and Henry Hill. I thought kneeling at the tables was a nice touch too and would have loved that, bougie judge be damned. 😊

Am I the only one watching this? I'm enjoying it. I like the relationship between Hampton and his sons.

These chefs just amaze me this season. They keep getting these ridiculous challenges and making dishes that I would love to eat - even the misfires. Most of them seem like decent people too - Lana deserved to stay just for freely offering up her extra flour to Henry. I woulda been all over that reuben pizza and I'm only now at my advanced age starting to explore beyond pizza napolitan'. Spike was always one of my favorite cheftestants. Nice to see him again. Man! Did he get old! Because she's such a freaking poseur! Yet one more of my reasons for loathing her. I vote for Cesar, although I would choose to shag Lana (Andy Cohen reference).

Something that I wouldn't have tried without seeing this show - dill pickle humus. It helped that it was on manager's special at the grocery store to move it because people weren't brave enough to try it. It was surprisingly good. I'd pay full price for it; it's one of those things - it could either be vile or surprisingly good. I had to come here and share with others who would understand my adventurousness.

That sounds like something I would say. I'm fun to watch TV with.

I did appreciate that Lizzo was the first musical guest in a minute with no tattoos and no pole dancing. (I'm counting the faux KKK walk-off as a pole dance.)
