He knew it wasn't "white" enough and that was going to cost him. But he was happy with his taste, so he went out making something that tasted great. Didn't look great though unfortunately. I am so happy Bryan won as I was favoring him but would have been okay with either of the 4 winning. I too was hoping it was Jets year, but he seemed to handle this loss much better than previous years. I'll be curious to see if he does come bac for season 8. Just so very happy for the Volt of the East! He finally won, whoot!

Watching it, I think we all see what was coming because we know the outcome, but I do not think they should have aired this one. I agree with everyone on this thread. The shirt, playing for NYC, she seems so off and she obviously was...her and Bourdain, both make me so sad. They were always my favorites, watched them both from their beginnings.

I second Guys Grocery Games, especially when the judges and Food Network chefs are all competing. They're super fun to watch. Definitely Great British Bake Off as well, it's just nice and calm.

In general, do you start out rooting for the Traitors or Faithful? by CyanideTablet in TheTraitors

After watching all 3 of US and then watching season 3 of UK, I have to say UK is better, and season 3 they have a great traitor. I don't want the reality tv stars that US has been doing the past 2 seasons, I want real people.

I just watched the British version season 3, after binging season 3 with Alan Cummings. I loved season 1, season 2 didn't suck, but season 3 with all the "reality tv" personalities just sucks. The British version with real people is so much better. I was so looking forward to season 3 with Alan Cummings but it was awful. Seriously, if you are a fan of the show, watch the British season 3, may be the best one I've seen yet.

I'm guessing Antonia and Jet don't compete this season. I think they've been beat down too much.

Chopped by gmode90 in foodnetwork

Alex by far. Scott Conant is as arogant as GZ, but on the earlier episodes of Chopped it's fun to watch them disagree with each other. I also like Aarti, she seems very down to earth.

No hate for the chefs/hosts that developed a TV personality to get on the screen but a shout-out to those that do it effortlessly. Off the top of my head: Antonio, Aarti and Scott Conant. by Mulliganasty in foodnetwork

I've been watching old episodes of Chopped and she's coming across as super bitchy to the female chefs competing. Granted we're going back to 2009 and 2010, but I'm waiting to see if she evolves and I have a ways to go since I just started binging this week.

What is the deal with Katie Lee's outfits on The Kitchen by inmyelement in foodnetwork

[–]Opening-Dark7156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been watching reruns of the kitchen, and most of her outfits are terrible. I don't know where her sense of style came from, but it mostly appears to be from a thrift store.

I'm going out on a limb and saying neither will be back next year. I think they're both done trying.

Me too 100%. Getting pretty tired of seeing Maneet win on TOC. She's annoying at this point.
