"Olive Garden", aka Lia got the boot! Boooooo! I was rooting for Sara to get tossed, she stinks kinda. I liked "Olive Garden" aka Lia!!! x(

1. Missed tonight - terrible storms so no sattelite

What was the challenge?

What was up w/the knives?

Saw the previews but none of the show.

[bicentennial_baby]

2. Nobody got hurt...

Hung was running around with his knife, almost cut Casey.

Quickfire: Frozen Pie Crust challenge

Elimination: Cook for the Telemundo show cast, Latin food.

:)

[Debi]

15. I hope to see rerun this weekend

The previews showed Telemundo cast not liking the food, did anyone do well?

3. Hung took "obnoxious dick" to a new level -

make sure you catch the rerun once your satellite regains reception...

[bicentennial_baby]

4. This is true!

But it didn't really work out for him! :rofl:

[bullwinkle428]

5. The judges sure served up a big dish of crow right back to him!

I knew he wasn't going anywhere, after they showed the "Casey & Lia BFF moment" early in the episode, but he certainly got put on notice. It could be a little foreshadowing for a future episode...

[bicentennial_baby]

6. They're big on 'foreshadowing'

He hasn't been doing as well as I thought he would. He's no Marcel. :D

[Tektonik]

9. Marcel should've won last season!

He was such a better cook :(

No one this year seems to be half decent, and the same seems to be true for Hell's Kitchen as well. Maybe we should try out for the shows next year :P

[Debi]

17. Ugh, Marcel

:puke:

[InternalDialogue]

21. About the foreshadowing --

When Hung said, at the end of the elimination challenge, "If I can't cook rice, I might as well go home," I thought, you know, I'll bet he can't cook rice. Turns out that was a huge problem in his dish.

That boy is full of rationalizations and ego that can't be stuffed into a GladWare® Container with Interlocking Lid.

[MissMillie]

11. He sure did

I'll tell you what though... as full of himself as he is, he doesn't seem to put others down in the process.

I'm not a fan of Hung at all, but I'll take him over first season Steve or second season Marcel any day.

[LynneSin]

12. Hung is trying to be another Marcel

but there is only one Marcel and Hung fails miserably at it

[bicentennial_baby]

13. Hehe, but he does do foam!

:D

[philosophie_en_rose]

14. Actually, he reminds me more of Elia.

Marcel was sort of blankly clueless and smug about his food, but Elia whined when the judges didn't like her food.

[Debi]

16. I think he needs to go

I'm sick of these competition shows always having the winner being the biggest asshole. So what if he can cook - he's going to also be able to run an entire kitchen. Waving a knife around and being an arrogant ass isn't going to inspire respect and teamwork. :eyes:

Hope to see rerun this weekend. :hi:

[bicentennial_baby]

18. The Tiffany Syndrome

[Debi]

19. Okay, I'll bite

Who's Tiffany? I just tuned in last season - do I need to go back?

[bicentennial_baby]

20. Ah, ok...Tiffany is from Season 1

She had a wretched personality, and treated her fellow contestants like crap. So when she made it to the final 2, her and Harold, she got screwed, bigtime. Dave and Stephen were brought back as her helpers, and it seemed like they intentionally performed poorly to screw her up. And when Tom and Gail, etc asked them who they thought should win, they all said Harold. That was quite a blow to Tiff. I hear she's working on Nantucket or the Vineyard now. :D

[Debi]

22. Just searched about her - yeah I can see what you are saying

:hi: Thanks

[Rabrrrrrr]

7. Hmph. All I got was a fucking rerun of the opening episode.

x(

[Flaxbee]

8. wait, why do you call her "Olive Garden"? What did I miss?

I figured it was either going to be her or Casey b/c they were so chummy, but then I thought it might have been Sara N. b/c they kept saying her dish was more like guacamole dip than a main course.

[bicentennial_baby]

10. Because that was her first cooking job

:D
