OMG, Kent makes me cry trying to step! I mean, he's doing the moves OK, I guess, but ugh.

TC:DC - from what the real judges said, I guess the two bottom contestants were the right choices, but there were a couple of moments during the cheftestant judging where the judges were giving WTF looks to the negative comments. I'm hoping they clarify that a bit in the blogs.

Will Kent be limited as a dancer by his height in the future? He looks shorter than Kathryn, and she claims 5'5". I guess he could grow a little. They've been lucky not to have to work with size mismatches much this year - imagine Kent drawing ballroom with Melinda!

I never notice stuff like that. I would never have known that Comfort had a weave if you hadn't told me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
okay, I finally got to the Kent/Twitch portion of the show.
If there were a step hoedown, Kent would get the blue ribbon. His shoulders were bouncy bouncy the whole fucking time. In this, he was terrible.

so, I started watching tivoed Top Chef. The challenge involved the teams voting, and someone said "this is where the strategy comes in" I stopped watching because I was annoyed. I hate this "drama" gamesmanship bullshit. I watch this for the competition about the food and the cooking, not how to get rid of a stronger chef or forming coalitions to vote. That's why I DON'T like most reality TV.

I'm still watching, on the first group.
All the contestants have nothing good to say, and Colicchio's face gets darker and darker. The other real judges are stone faced.
I think - I hope - these people are fucking themselves by trying to be strategic and super critical.
For sure, this wasn't the dynamic last season.
