I have to admit that I love Throwdown with Bobby Flay. Mainly because he loses most of the time, but still, it's a pretty good show (and so is Dinner Impossible).

Is this format drastically different from the first two seasons? I remember catching a very small bit of last season but it seemed like they spent 5 hours in the judging room, which appeared to be in Emeril's mother's basement or something. It had a very cheapy feel to it. The eppy I saw they got rid of the last of the wimmins, some highstrung nutjob.
I like this edition so far though...good choices for the eliminations, neither of them were really bringing anything interesting to the show. It nicely rounds out the cooking reality show trifecta that is going on this month. Let's (by that I mean let me) run down the cast: Colombe - Jewel's long lost sister? I am glad she stayed Adrien - Paul's less gay older brother...seems to be a puss Salmon - like the fish! too schticky Paul - reminds me of Hal Sparks. entertaining Jag - a less mentally challenged version of Miguel from Top Chef 1.0 Nikki - liked what she cooked...kinda dull Tommy - why are the fatties always so annoying?? Rory - OMG Kimmi from Survivor Outback anyone? god that mouth Amy - bitch is gonna have a breakdown in a few weeks, count on it...totally gives me mentally unhinged vibes Patrick - yaaaaaawn. good riddance Viven - a combination of Jaslene from Top Model AND Janice Dickinson. Creepy. |

Meh.
Colombe and Rory lasted this week because they are attractive women. Patrick was never going to make it, but booting Vivien when her problems weren't nearly so visible as Colombe or Rory's? I call shenanigans. |

Paul may be bitchy, but I'd love to be with him in bed.

Can't believe they kept Rory.
So far I like Paul and Andrien. |

The worst thing about this show (which is the same "worst thing" as for cycle 1) is casting those 2 producers as on-air personalities. She's a horsefaced hag and he's a weeny little twit. They should do as RT shows usually do, and hire an attractive and personable host, and put into the end credits: "The outcome of the judging has been subject to the [whims of the] producers." There's no good reason we should have to look at those people week in and week out, when we could otherwise have some cute Phil-type host to enjoy.

Quote: At least they got rid of Marc Summers, who was annoying in the role of host and buttinsky. I sort of like the idea of a rotating third judge, but that person won't have seen everything the contestants have done previously. Agreeance that Rory (the low-budget Toni Collette) had too many calamaties to NOT be let go. Vivien should have been given another chance, but I could see them maybe thinking that her accent may have been a little difficult for Middle America to understand on a regular basis. Salmon and Paul get good "narrator edits". Before the show, I had Michael and Tommy as my picks, but Tommy would be too much like Guy Fieri. Amy's a little tooo...ennnh for me. Talented, but I don't know if I see her hosting a 30-minute show. They probably want a woman to win the whole thing after having only men win so far. So, hedging bets, I pick Salmon or Colombe at the moment. |

I really like Adrien! It doesn't hurt that he is from Mi. I have to back someone from my home state! I like the show much better this season.

The women are in real trouble here, except that Paris wannabee.
Watch how the judges twist and turn and convolute their reasoning in order to keep them around as long as possible... |

There going to have problems with the black woman at some point. Several times I thought she was going to cut someone. I flinched when Amy said she couldnt get any booze for her dessert.

I enjoyed this show last night.
I seriously thought that Rory was history - that cake she decorated. Looked like a 3 year old did it. Colombe is unaware. (And, yes, I kept thinking of Jewel too) She really bothered me last night. I don't care for wishy-washy, float along sorts, though. Amy - is that the pretentious Parisian trained housewife? She needs to get over herself, already. She did make a fine team leader, however. Mr. Shirley likes Jag and Tommy. I am repulsed by the "jag it up" line. Nikki is too much a diva - another woman that needs to get over herself. Salmon, like the fish, I lost count how many times in the first 1/2 hour I heard that. Enough already. Something about him rubs me the wrong way. Paul is really gonna amp it up, ain't he. Adrian - is that the cutie patootie from Michigan? I like him. Which means he won't win. Season 1's winners have a tepid show that I've only seen on Sunday mornings around 8:00 am. Yuck. I didn't like them in the first season and I am still bored by them. They were, however, the most polished and put together that season had to offer. Guy Fieri has 2 shows and we like the Drive-Ins, Diners and Dives show. He's entertaining and seems down to earth. We also got a kick out of his advert in the bottom right corner of the tv screen while this show was on. We rewound it so's we could watch him dance around - it looked like he was doing the "na na na na na na" dance. Oh, and the Brazilian Bombshell looked like a reject from Real Housewives of Orange County. |

I call Giada "Big Head." Sure not the most creative name. But that noggin looks like it so strains her 'lil stick neck.

I don't care if y'all call her Little Big Head. I know that one day Giada and I are gonna to get married on top of a mountain, and there's going to be flutes playing and trombones and flowers and garlands of fresh herbs. And we will dance till the sun rises. And then our children will form a family band. And we will tour the countryside and you won't be invited.

Quote: My early favorites are Paul and Adrien. I'm with whoever said that they will pick a woman this time...so...Colombe? Nikki? Don't know, not thrilled with the women this time around. Sorry to see my compatriot Vivien go, but that Brazilian flag cake really was a nightmare. When I saw her doing a second salad, I knew she was finished. Wasn't there someone in a previous season who got the boot after only making a salad during one of these big challenges? |
