And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I can't hate Kevin because I fall asleep every time he's onscreen.

Grape Nuts.

I missed the stuff about the fiance. Hmmm. Well, I wasn't going to go for Angelo anyway.

I totally thought Kevin was getting the loser edit. Sigh.

Heh. All I can hear is him being full of himself. As opposed to Kelly who apparently talks in dog-whistle tones, because I can't remember a thing she has ever said.

Actually, not entirely true - her astronaut geekiness tonight was endearing.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I don't care who wins now and may not bother watching the finale.

How right I wish you'd been.

I will say, if Tiffany isn't fan favorite this year, I'm going to be mighty pissed.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

OMG. How right you are. This is straight up bullshit.

I don't think I am going to watch. fuck it.

This is straight up bullshit.

You serve Eric Ripert a seafood dish he has problems with, I expect consequences. The fact that it was one of the only dishes that Bourdain had issues with kinda sealed the deal that Tiffany was toast. She had a bad night, and that alway kills with this show, so no matter how much I am meh on the other contestants, I don't think there was anything hinky about this.

Still, I bet Tom C must be seething that Angelo won with that ginger in the dish though.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

(shrug) I still think it is bullshit. Ripert was mr. grumpy man - he didn't like Ed's dish all that much either, right and Bourdain argued with him.

This was a bad season, and this right here is the cherry on the sundae. I'm out.

This was a bad season

I can't argue with that.
