SYTYCD: I think the Deaf woman has skill, but not skilled enough to compete on SYTYCD. The show has EXCELLENT dancers. Homegirl ain't gonna make it and shouldn't.
I'm pretty sure she won't make it past Vegas. I don't think she would have been put through if she hadn't been deaf, but giving her the chance makes them look good.
I said to Allyson last night, "This is Top Chef, not Top Ceviche!"
Seriously.
And I was going to say, didn't they have an outdoor ceviche problem earlier, but I guess that was Masters.
I just did a tally. Last night's episode featured a record breaking (okay, I'm assuming it's record breaking) SIX ceviches. (4 in the QF and 2 in the EC.)
That brings our season ceviche total to 11. And we're only on the fifth episode.
ETA:
I'd never even heard of ceviche until the past year or so.
I first remember hearing about it in Season 1 when Harold made a ceviche with spicy popcorn or something.
Don't forget, Mattin did a
trio
of ceviche(s?).
I am happy to note that there seem to be fewer duos and trios of things this season.
Maybe after last night they'll all get superstitious about ceviches. Maybe.

God, seriously.
Yeah, I'm as tired of anything "three ways" as I am of ceviche. I've never had a ceviche of anything.
SYTYCD: On a completely shallow level, one of the gay ballroom guys had the most beautiful face.
I love ceviche and I'm STILL bored with it on this season. (Ditto scallops - love to eat 'em. Will FALL ASLEEP if I ever see another one cooked on TV.)
We are not SHALLOW here at the buffistas.
Never.

I'd forgotten about Ash's Sondheim shoutout during last night's Top Chef! When they were gathered around the campfire the night before the elim challenge, and someone was talking about the various animals that might be out there.
Someone: "Bears?"
Ash: "Bears? Bears are sweet!"
Gotta love showtune lyric quotes in the middle of the desert.
