Top Chef - I would really, really, just once, like to see a RW with a woman in front of house that doesn't lose her mind and freak the fuck out. As soon as Laurine said she was running FoH, I knew it was gonna be her.
Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Because books.
I'm trying to remember who else has done front of the house aside from Radhika.
The longer I think about it, the more the fact that Jen and Kevin and Mike I. decided to do both of each course's dishes seems so ridiculously stupid. Kevin looked really baffled when Tom asked how it didn't occur to any of them that that was going to backfire.

It's a lot of pressure, and a role that I really wouldn't like to do, but for fuck's sake. Either recognize that you aren't the best person for that job which has always been somebody's downfall.
Granted, I haven't watched all of the season's but has anyone gone home from RW because of the food? I only remember the FoH people leaving.

I think Dale went home for food.
I definitely couldn't do front of house. Hell, I couldn't even waitress. I would be a spectacular failure.

Oh, god, I haven't watched SYTYCD yet, but Ashleigh the married ballroom dancer made it in. I HATE that chick. Let's hope she goes home early.
Lotsa people we haven't seen yet, but MY RUSSELL I LOVES HIM.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It was traumatic when Tre got axed for being the leader of the losing RW team in Season 3 -- he was obviously one of the best chefs in the bunch.

I thought that was fucked up, but his beet soup/sauce was apparently vile.

See when Jen was the team captain I thought that she would be expediting the way she expedited that time she won the quickfire - she should have rocked it.
Apparently, Team Red benefited from M.V.'s dictatorish tendencies.

Jen seemed beaten down after the Quickfire for some reason. Given that the actual challenges are much closer together than we see them, I wonder is she's still feeling sick like she was last week (that was last week, right?), which I think would have been a day ago real time.
