It seemed like they were just about to pull Mikey for medical reasons. Wouldn’t it have been kinder to do that when he started suggesting he had to quit? Jump in there and say it before he does. Give him that little bit of dignity.

I can see the Pasta Girl’s frozen pizza being good. But the label shows her eating pasta. Okay, maybe both, but confusing. Fat Miilk will turn off people who avoid fat. Cup guy had a good point that he’s not just selling one product, but a whole line of products. Good for him.

If you want to make a bunch of kids happy, you should emulate fast food. Maybe sad, but true. Not so big burgers, chicken nuggets, regular fries, maybe apple slices with caramel dipping sauce. Never met a kid who wants grilled chicken and slaw.

Meat thrown. “For kids!”

Another large group catering event. They should just call it MasterCaterer. Who will serve raw meat? How much meat will Gordon throw against a wall? I’m predicting “How dare you serve this to these precious underprivileged children!”

Kimberly is yet another example, possibly the best one yet, of a silly, self-centered American committing herself to a very different culture and then complaining that it is not like her own. Her shock and objections seemed almost too crazy to be real. But how could she know what is like to be a wife in India? I mean, it's not like she knew anyone from India she could ask, and there isn't any magical technology that would enlighten her in five minutes.

Why do Cleo and Christian both wear ski caps indoors all the time?

Key lime pie is not a cake. Everyone else has to make pasta, but you can grill a steak.

That first act…. This has gone off the rails, jumped the shark, etc. Ridiculous. Howie had the right idea.

Not a fan of Christian, but .... A lot of straight or bi men go through what Christian is experiencing -- the curiosity about men and transwomen, wondering if it's more than curiosity, wanting to explore and experiment, not sure if he really wants what he thinks he wants, bumbling in communicating, hesitant to make a first move, anxious about what it means about himself and his identity, etc. But most of them don't bring along a camera crew. What on earth was he thinking?

The indoor drumline was pretty good but they used a cheat. The judges and audience weren't excited and dancing because they appreciated the drum work. They were excited by the familiar and popular music behind them. I could walk around that stage looking at my phone for four minutes and if "Turn down for what!" blared over and over, I'd have the audience on their feet too.

The acrobats’ little girl was so blasé. “Yeah, I see them do this 10 times a day at home. Don’t all parents do this?” So the producer told Simon that the animators would make the singing dog appear live on stage “when the show airs” or something to that effect. There was nothing live on stage except maybe a stand-in dog and drum that did nothing. That means they were just reacting to the lame rendition of a popular song and pretending to be amazed by the “live” animation. That’s a new low for AGT.

I could beleive this is exactly the setup. The women Chad has met don't seem like they would need a matchmaker, and if it were real I don't think they'd give Chad any chance at all. Kind of cruel to Chad if he's not in on it, but then again, he makes it hard to feel sympathy for him.

Statler is such an odd duck. I suspected from the start that all her big talk about her sexual escapades was a lie, possibly to cover up for insecurity about not having had many relationships or serious relationships. I still think so. Even if it were true, it's unseemly to me. I'm all for being sex positive and enjoying it all you want, but casually bragging about the details to strangers is tacky. And what normal person visits someone with secret plans to move in and stay?

Michael and his wonderful, wonderful hair tried to play into the new agey spiritual stuff, to be open and vulnerable, only to have her ridicule him for a mom vibe. This is why men don’t open up more. Then you criticize us for being distant and cold.

Not trying to argue, but help me understand. As I understand it, bears climb pretty well. So do a lot of small critters. And obviously flies. So what’s the advantage?

Did anybody catch the woman who held the door for Ramsay at one point and did a big double take like, "Wait, was that Gordon Ramsay??"

It’s not the first time, but can someone explain the idea of preserving your food by putting it high up in the trees? Can’t just just about everything get up there to your cache? As happene, now in past series?

Anybody else think Chad likes him some of them French fried p’taters? Um hmmm… Wonder if he calls it a Kaiser blade or a sling blade…

My bad. Can't keep them straight. But he still is.

Even if his CUPcakes had turned out well, who just makes cupcakes on Masterchef and dumps some chopped apples on them? That only works if you’re hoping someone else does something much worse. But churro guy got immunity.

Kudos to Sofia for holding on to her X even after realizing the puppets were a “suck up to Simon” act.

So the doctor wore a chef's coat and toque to bake a cake with Michelle? Who does that? Most actual chefs don't wear the hat. A bit pretentious and would make me suspicious.

I've always wanted to see a parody of Hoarders in which the pscyhologist and cleaning crew show up to a house and the doctor gently asks if she can come inside and take a look. Then they go inside and the house is spotless, but the terribly guilt ridden and fragile owner takes her over to a coat closet that has a few boxes stacked inside. "I know. It's terrible. I'm so ashamed." And then they go through the whole process of having a 15-man crew wait while the owner decides what can be thrown away, what can be donated, etc. Maybe they find a $20 bill and the owner wants to keep it. But the doc says, "It's been in here for years and you've never touched it. It's dirty. Can you let go of this?"

The country girls were trying way too hard to be “country.” And yes, this rural Georgia country boy fully emphasizes the quote marks.
