She's such a tough judge I always wanted to see her compete and I wasn't disappointed. This only made me love her move. Her food was gorgeous and looked delicious. I feel like she would've won, but they felt Amanda deserved it more since she always loses. Their knocking of the raspberries in her dessert rang false to me. I thought her dessert looked amazing. Maneet has competed in Chopped After Hours. I'm not sure if she's ever been in any of the regular competitions.

ZoqFotPik November 25, 2018 Share November 25, 2018 (edited) She has competed twice before. In 2011 in Judges leg of the All-Stars Tournament and in 2014 for the Thanksgiving episode. Both times she got knocked out in the appetizer round. Speaking of Thanksgiving episodes, if Martha doesn't go away soon, I'm going to drop this show. At least she had a fork this time.

awaken November 26, 2018 Share November 26, 2018 I loved chef David Thomas in the TG episode! What an awesome guy. So dignified, and he knew his food!! So happy he won! We also enjoyed the siblings episode! I usually don’t like the gimmicky shows but this one was fun. And the food looked GOOD! I wanted to eat most of it, which doesn’t always happen on chopped! 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4870744
mlp November 26, 2018 Share November 26, 2018 I'm not a fan of Martha Stewart although I do like her voice and she does look great for her age. I wouldn't mind her as a judge if they'd just treat her like all the other judges instead of like some cooking deity. Having her bring something and then brag about it changes the atmosphere of Chopped and not in a good way. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4870967

Most of the time, every single other judge and Ted all have more culinary credibility than Martha. Pretending that isn't the case and then kissing her a$$ about whatever super special thing she has brought is just stupid. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4872652

This was the first episode I've watched in ages and Chef David delivered. Not only were his skills a level above the other contestants, he was so good at starting out with a coherent strategy for each of his plates. I hope they bring him back for a Champions round. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4873371

jcbrown November 28, 2018 Share November 28, 2018 I didn't really have a favorite in last night's episode but I definitely did not want Nicole to win after she started yammering about her career as a caterer "cooking for the 1%." Money does not equal taste, sweetie. I was hoping she would go out in the first round but at least she went out in the second one. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4879050

As soon as she said that in her intro, I was ready for her to go. You know, ‘cause my family and I are middle-class cretins who will never have the privilege of sampling her 1% food. There’s confidence (cool) and then there’s Man-Bun Phillip-levels of arrogant out-of-touchery, and she had the latter in spades. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4881921
jcbrown December 6, 2018 Share December 6, 2018 Did anyone else watch this week's episode with the grandmas? FN in general gets a bit patronizing about grandmas, IMHO, especially at this time of year. I thought this one was okay but largely unmemorable. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4898161
mlp December 6, 2018 Share December 6, 2018 I watched and I think "okay but largely unmemorable" sums it up nicely. I thought maybe the fact that all the women were chefs and grandmas just incidentally kept the saccharine comments at bay a bit. The woman I liked best won. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/67538-chopped-2018/page/5/#findComment-4898191

Brookside January 30, 2019 Share January 30, 2019 (edited) I just saw the last 10 minutes or so of an old show (sorry I didn't get the episode). One of the contestants thought that by winning he could pay off his student loans, move to Durango, and open a few restaurants." Hahahahahaha. It's that or kill myself.
