Yes, I knew that, too. But Pembleton wasn't a lunatic, so I didn't mind her name. And RIP Andre Braugher, gone much too soon.

Somehow I learned that she had taken her screen name from the character Kay Howard on Homicide: Life on the Street, played by Melissa Leo, a character I loved on a show I loved. I hated knowing that, because I did not love Mod Howard.

Could you be thinking of BiakBiak? She seemed to have an encyclopedic knowledge of foods from many countries, posted about exotic dishes she made all the time, and then . . . poof! Very odd disappearance.

You're welcome, even though I see that @schnauzergirl is stealing all the credit 🤨--I'm kidding. Totally agreed. And to keep my newly established Marcel fan club going, I thought his dish was exceptionally beautiful. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's episode.

We have that function with Dish (although it doesn't flash, just displays the number in a box on-screen). If it's available from your provider, you might be able to set it up by going into the Settings menu and looking around. Or of course you could call tech support (my version of hell on earth) and ask them. It's really helpful to have.

Me, too. She's been a sore loser in the past yet seems to feel entitled to win--which is odd for someone who doesn't seem to win much. Matt Jordan? Martel seems to be getting lots of camera time. I wonder if that's a sign of something to come. After that little bit about being inspired as a chef by his connection to his mom, I liked Marcel a lot more than I once did. I was also surprised by seeing half of them gone so fast. And surprised by Aarthi's failure to pay attention to time. I wonder if this was filmed before or after Jet lost TOC.

Thanks, all. I didn't want to ask for one till I was sure there wasn't already one somewhere.

Don't know where else to ask, searched and didn't find. Does anyone know if there's a forum for 24 in 24: Last Chef Standing? I just watched the first episode and am curious to know other people's thoughts.

Can someone put me out of my misery and tell me who the grown daughter looked like? Someone famous, obviously, maybe an actress--or not. It was driving me crazy throughout the entire episode.

I would post back at her: "What a funny coincidence! I just signed you up as a donor with the National Kidney Foundation! They'll be contacting you shortly to get your blood type and other health info. I'm so excited that you'll be doing such a great good deed!" And then you can decide whether to actually do it or not.

Isn't that a federal offense? That seems to be the new thing, getting away with federal offenses. It would be nice if someone invented a mailbox that shot lasers at your eyes if you threw something other than mail into it.

It's starting to look as if this hasn't been renewed. Anyone know?

Is this dopey argument really worth continuing ad infinitum? Asking for a friend.

Maybe I can get away with this if we're moderating ourselves. I don't know why the postmaster general still has a job. Other than him I love the post office.

I'm pretty sure she remained in Costa Rica but went to San José, the capital, for the surgery, instead of staying in the small surf town. She murdered a woman for having lunch with her boyfriend. She would've torched the whole town with flamethrowers if they'd actually slept together. I really would like to know about her past history of jealousy. Or maybe she just had a psychotic break. She certainly was a persistent escape artist--that clip with her in the striped prison pants was like a Benny Hill skit.
