Tonight was supposed to whittle down to a final two, but they're going with a final three next week, which they've never done before.

Aaron's presentation was watch from the hall, but his promo was really good (and seemed to require less substantial editing than the others). I think if he hadn't also tanked the bulk of his food, he would have done a lot better.

His food was so incredibly unambitious - it didn't even really go for the BIG flavor that was supposed to be his trademark.

Plus - did you notice him pouring ranch dressing from a bottle - while Adam was making his own sauces? Very, very weak.

On Design Star I was surprised: I really thought that Trish had it in the bag - I am pleased that this wasn't the case. I like both Matt and Jennifer. I think that either would be interesting and a much better choice than in the past two seasons.

Indeed. And even before that, going with three pastas? There's simple and then there's lazy; he went for lazy.

Hey, the Ask Aida host is from chow.com.

I am so in love with The Singing Office, I don't even know. Although I wish they had more time to practice, because the groups would be better with it.

We have talked about the Singing Office at my office, but unfortunatly, the two people who can actually sing are me and my accounting nemesis...

Ha! I wonder who in my office could sing. I saw some karaoke clips recently, so some people are at least up for it!

I just saw last week's Shear Genius, and just have to ask where they get these people. Those cuts were bad. And do people really spend an hour doing their hair so that they are happy to cut that time to 1/2 hour? Isn't the point of going to a good stylist to get a cut that you don't have to worry about?

Project Runway: TV Guide has a "where are they now" feature up for past contestants. (Finalists and winners - I believe.)
