That was fantastic!!!! Love Elsbeth vs Evil Judge. I enjoyed the dynamics. He had the power as the judge but had to put up with Elsbeth’s shenanigans somewhat because he had a different interest in the case. Can’t wait to see them face off again. The Teddy actor looks so much like Carrie Preston!!!! I was worried when they decided to introduce Elsbeth’s kid. I didn’t want an “Elsbeth deals with son’s angst” storyline but he was nice and cheerful just like the rest of the show.

I squealed when I saw Nadine!!! She’s beautiful and so much fun! Loved the poker game with all the detectives. Haha Elsbeth and I wear the same colours! My favourite show right now!!!

One of the best episodes ever! Sooooo much fun! Poor Captain Wagner and his fun lunch! I hope he ends the season with a new friend or something! Love Elsbeth and Kaya's friendship. Especially loved the minor glitch they had between rent and no rent. Elsbeth is so often written as being able to float in and gain the upperhand, I really enjoyed seeing her not "getting" it and then coming around to see things from Kaya's point of view in the end. Vanessa Williams is an absolute gem in her role. I genuinely wonder what she is like in real life. It's hard for me to imagine her as anything other than a petulant, rich lady. Yaaay to my favourite Detective Donnelly being back!!! Rotating detectives is the best thing ever about this show. Loved the "It's either love or money" detective too.

Boo I just logged on hear to find that Kristin is gone 😭😭😭 I’ve got two episodes of S4 left. I like Kristin!!!! I thought she was really sincere and seemed like the type of person who would take care of you in a stoic, calm, cool sort of way. I’m super chaotic so I’m drawn to people like Isobel and Kristin. This show keeps getting rid of people that I like! I loved Ortiz! The only consolation is that I adore Ray too. They better keep him!!!

Ugh Sunny is horrible this season. And people complained about Anne! Why do they think it is entertaining to have her scream and yell like that? Have Michael and Bobby been briefed because they look downright uncomfortable sometimes when she goes especially nuts.

I thought it was just me!!!!! I’m a solid cook and nothing I’ve ever made using a Martha Stewart recipe has been good!!!!! I gave up after a few recipes no matter how nice the pictures are.

I think this is on par with the Larissa season for me. I did not enjoy her or her win at all. Emma Dean and Justin were a bit of a “WTF” in terms of their wins but I didn’t find them unpleasant as people. The three finalists here are all varying degrees of unpleasant. Best thing about this season has once again been this forum!!! Have enjoyed all your comments and updates immensely 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

Those choux buns look like 💩💩💩 I’m not cursing, they have that shape and irregularity, looking like they came out of something’s bottom.

What is the structure for this week? I heard that there is no elimination? So what are they all cooking for?

Aww I’m sad that Austin left. I will miss his sunny demeanour and lovely smile. Loved Spring and now love Summer! Excellent set of contestants! Love fruity desserts so the elimination was right up my alley.

@katisha what is the vibe on social media? I find it interesting that Ben the recapper has the same feelings as us and that as three random individuals we are having similar judgements about certain people on this show.

Me five!!!!! I’ve always loved Alex and have never found her to be mean. I didn’t watch last season though but on Chopped, Worst Cooks, Supermarket Stakeout etc she’s always been constructive. She’s definitely expressive though so if she thinks someone is a fool it’s pretty obvious but I don’t see any mean spirit behind it. They are huge fools a lot of the time!

For some reason X keeps previewing Sav’s tweets for me and she comes off as rather unpleasant. Massive chip on her shoulder and uber defensive.

This show does weird things to me. I started the show being annoyed at Nat and Mimi but now I don’t mind them at all. In fact I can appreciate their cooking prowess and willingness to take risks. Mimi in particular is super creative. I liked Sav in the first few weeks. Now she’s as much of a one trick pony as Brent or the ice cream guy or the girl who made frozen desserts with moulds every week.

Maybe they need to pay for the extra judge plus blew their budget on Jamie so we’re getting lots of tiktok stars!
