I watched to see Romy leave.  I don't blame him for not wanting to play with sprinkles. What a joke. You could see it in his and in Dennis's face that neither found this funny. Especially with Molly giggling about it. 

This feels like a baking squid game. No one seems happy and they are just trying to survive.

Romy did drop that Mike! 

 

Total BS....Romy should have never been in the bottom 2, much less in Molly's stupid ass sprinkle cook-off. They just didn't want to  send Dennis home. He didn't even make his dough... and Romy's was just teensy bit under. If they couldn't stand to let Dennis go, they should just had a final 4. Jeleesa's cake may have been delicious... but was decorated like a cake I could buy at Kroger. Nothing wrong with Kroger cakes... but, I wouldn't pay $25k for one. Poor Romy!!!

They both looked so pissed off and then when she said sprinkles, I thought Romy was going to lose it. Number 1, 1 hr and here they just baked and she wants some dumb shit with sprinkles. Sprinkles are for kids or donuts. I'm not knocking sprinkles, but they don't belong in the finale for this show. 

I shouldn't have read the spoiler. Now I'm pissed off.

I felt so bad for Romy, it was an emotional day for him and here she was saying sprinkles. 

Food Network really needs to get rid of her hosting and she should not have control over what they bake. They should be baking with things that show their skills and not shit that needs to be baked for the kids baking championship.

And Molly was telling them they could make cookies, brownies or bars. Was this a PTA bake sale?

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought her cake was bullshit. I think everyone else actually did harder shit and here she was making a cake. Whoopee and all her shit in the past hasn't been decorated like Carolyn or Romy

The fix was in from the beginning towards Jaleesa. She should have been gone weeks ago, but was always saved.  All she did was make a basic chocolate cake, but the judges were coming all over themselves, all the while the other three made more complicated bakes.  As far as the comment that Romy ruined his tart with the broken heart, that is totally bogus.  They wanted a family bake, so Romy literally put his broken heart on the plate.  Then the whole thing with Molly’s insane love of sprinkles, that destroyed the show.  I’ll confess, I DESPISE sprinkles. To me, once they’re on anything, they morph into a nasty thing that tastes more like wet paper.

FN, if you allow Molly or Kardea back on this show, you might as well flush it down the toilet.

And Dennis’ decoration in the preheat was a couple of real flowers on the plate. That was it. No effort spent on it but idiot Nancy says “you really brought the spring.”

Ooh, the tea is hot!  Romy may have a non-disclosure agreement, but perhaps he's going rogue (attached are 2 screen caps -- one with a biting review of the cookie saaaahlad this season has been and the next *shows Romy liking it)

It really was a walmart cake. And not only were they told not to make a cake, she forgot to add something.

Yes, you could tell Dennis wanted to walk right out with Romy! Sprinkles! So ridiculous. Duff, the only judge with any baking cred, should be ashamed for letting this happen. All you have to do is look at Romy’s IG page and see his past creations from way before this stinking show. He is a true artist. He is getting lots of ❤️ on IG. 

Molly is the most intrusive host on any show I’ve ever seen. Noel and Matt on GBBO annoy me quite often but this over-the-top teeth baring fake cuteness chick who hogs the camera is too much. 

This!  I am surprised Duff would let this happen.  I have lost a little respect for Duff.  He knows how this is going an let it happen. IF they dont change it then it's just a paycheck for them. At least that what I think.

Sprinkles might have been the straw that broke the camel’s back, but I think what really devastated Romy was the judges’ criticism of his cake’s decoration, after he’d explained how meaningful it was to him.  That was just cruel.  You could see him react to that comment like he’d been punched in the gut.

It's also interesting that there was a whole crowd of people supporting Jaleesa when she had her panic attack.  Did one person go after Romy and ask if he was OK?  Try to calm him down?  Try to get him to come back?  There might be some great behind the scenes footage that will never see the light of day, if a producer went to talk to Romy and he bluntly told them a competition with sprinkles and cookie salad is not worthy of his skills.

Romy doesn’t want to burn any bridges.  Or get in trouble for a clause in a contract he may have signed about not disparaging the show.  I don’t blame him a bit.  CYA happening and that’s how it is.  But no, Molly is not formidable and the judges, especially Kardea and Duff, were not adorable.

“It’s the finals, bakers, your last time in MY kitchen, so bring your best…and by that I mean put up with me taking up your valuable time by having to give me a dissertation on why you’re  making what you’re making.  Bonus points if it’s something I like so I can jump up and down like a four-yr-old.”

and with that, I’m out.  If Molly is back, I won’t be.  Worst host ever.
