Summer Mish-Mash

[Alluveal]

Harlowe, I need to chat about Master Chef. Come play in the fields of culinary mastery with me!

[Harlowe]

Well Miss Lulu I have been watching Master Chef! I haven't seen this week's yet though, I watch it on Hulu so it's like a day or two later.

[Alluveal]

I love me some Master Chef. Joe is my hero. I live to see him throw plates and spit out the food.

This season, I'm liking James and Eddie. Natasha is a total wench and Chrissy just needs to go the F home. Seriously.

[Harlowe]

I love Joe! My guy HATES him and will seldom watch the show with me. In fact he really only likes the UK Edition of Kitchen Nightmares out of the Ramsey series I watch - but man, I love that guy and he can be such a queen, but when he compliments something, it means something. Graham kind of annoys me, maybe it's the way he looks up in the air EVERY time he tastes something, like he's attempting to look deep in thought, but he kind of looks like a little pigger when he does that.

Out of the contestants - James is my favorite, I'm rooting for that guy, but I do really like Eddie, Bri and even that brat Luca - he has some talent anyway. Bethy seems talented too, but honestly I don't see the same kind of talent I saw last year and there definitely is no one as good (and charismatic) as Christine Ha from last year.

I can't stand Joe, but I'm sure that has more to do with the show/the producers than it does with Joe himself. He used to be a bit of douche when he'd do guest/sommelier spots on Molto Mario back in the day, but he cranks up the dick bag for Master Chef. But, as mentioned, I'm sure that has more to do with him playing the role for production, which kind of makes it worse/more annoying in a way.

Love his mom, though. Her PBS shows have always been awesome.

[Harlowe]

I loved his Mom's appearance on Master Chef!

[Alluveal]

Joe's mom was awesome. I like Joe almost as much as I like Gordon. Because when someone busts ass and breaks through, Joe will be the first one to say, "I was wrong about you."

Chrissy is such a snatch. Holy hell.

[Harlowe]

Allu did you also find the bride and groom to be insufferable? We're foodies and here is a 3 foot list of things that I don't like blah blah blah blah blah OH MY GAWD FOOD blah blah.

Oh and that's why I like Joe too, he's seems very sincere and is not afraid to say "I was wrong about you" and give them an attaboy. I don't see that same degree of real scrutiny coming from Gordon or Graham.

[Alluveal]

omg, she needs to GTFO NOW.

Harlowe, yes, the couple was horrible. You're getting an appetizer from Graham and dessert from Gordon R. and you're rattling off some lame-ass list about shit you won't eat?

[Harlowe]

I can't stand her. Her whole "I'm in this competition for MY SON, its a competition and I have to win this, for him." thing she did rationalizing taking immunity for herself, when an episode or two previously she commented that in Philly a person would get their ass beat for doing that, when someone else did it.

Gaawd, get her off.

[Alluveal]

Yeah, I wonder how the show is going to deal with her being on with the racist BS now. Maybe they'll get lucky and she'll be gone on this upcoming episode. Eww. Just eww! It would be so sad (and kind of LOL) if she manages to get in the top 2.

Why do people do this shit online? So stupid!

[Alluveal]

Freakin' rerun tonight. Chrissy and her racist BS are probably to blame! Stupid!

[Fallakin Kuvari]

FINALLY caught up. Sad my favorite (Jonny) is now gone though.

Oh well, at least Eddie is still in there and going strong.

Chrissy and Natasha will stay around til like the top 5. They're drama, its ratings and they love it... it happens every year (and in Hell's Kitchen too).

[Alluveal]

I liked Jonny, too. They shouldn't kick people off who won the mystery box challenge the day before! Booo!

[Alluveal]

I just finished season 3 of Downton Abbey. I knew what happened at the end, so it was not a surprise. I still can't believe the actor left. What a turd. He can suck it. I hope Mary finds some hot freakin Prince to boff. (Or she can just hook up with Tom and make Irish rebel babies.)

As long as Maggie Smith never leaves, I'll be happy.

[Harlowe]

Yeah, he wouldn't even give them the two or three episodes the writer wanted to possibly give him a foreign post etc., so the character could come back if the actor chose to, I know they wanted the couple to have a happy ending. The douche thing is that he said he'd be up for a Downton Abbey movie....seriously, what do you think that's going to be about with your character dead? A prequel? You were part of a fan-favorite couple, it wasn't just your character people were interested in. No one wants to see you and your mom having tea for two hours.

[Alluveal]

Oh shit, I didn't know he was that big of a dick about it. It's a pity because he WAS part of a rockin' couple. I loved Matthew! Oh well.

[Alluveal]

Holy shit, The Killing is freaking intense (these last two episodes). I was crying like a little girl at Sunday's episode.

[Harlowe]

Oh no, I'm two episodes behind!

[Alluveal]

I just want to hug Holder, give Linden a medal, and slap the death row sargeant until he cries. Maybe Chief from Galactica will do it for me.
