They are killing me on Top Chef. Stop talking about your sick mother, Fabio! That sounds like going-home talk. In other Fabio news, let me go find the blog post I saw with a hilarious picture of him and a link to an article...

And now I have to stay up for the whole stupid supersize episode.

Enjoy: [link]

Aw. I am heartbroken. But right now, I think Carla can really take it, because of the soul factor. Is Stefan going to bring that out like Hung finally did? Not so sure.

I am SO excited Carla won that. But I am heartbroken about Fabio.

I'm REALLY going to have to be convinced by blogs that this wasn't producer interference or, more likely, misleading editing, because it sounded like every step of the way the that Fabio had done slightly better than Stefan , especially attitude wise. Totally rooting for Carla now. Stefan was a fucking punk tonight, and not in the good sense.

So psyched for Carla, though. And I'm curious if the oyster stew would have been as good if she had steamed the oysters as Tom said she could have in his aside.

I sense the hand of the producers in this one. They probably were neck and neck, and the producers cast the tie vote. But, Fabio can be content because you know that he'll win fan favorite.

Don't you think the producers would have kept Fabio? If anything, I bet Tom was arguing based on the season of cooking, not just the one meal, which they aren't supposed to do still, right?

Don't they need a villain at this point? Stefan brings the villainy.

Unfortunately, unlike the church lady last year (aka kitty-butt-face), Stefan has a shot at taking it if he doesn't slack off like he did last night. Those cigarette breaks were priceless.

Fabio dislikes cilantro! I think he's wrong like a wrong thing but he could be one of us!
