AMEN.

I was very disappointed to see that next week marks the return of Toby Young. Plus Penn & Teller.

This gentleman reminds me a lot of the actor Peter Krause.

For me, he's a young Gary Cooper.  In terms of both looks and (lack of) animation.

Here's a hilarious picture:



These aren't as funny:

What? No.  :'(

My face is like Tim Love's in reaction to this upsetting news, not Frenchy's:

Too soon?

I was really surprised to hear professionals complaining about grilling on an open flame. And no one grilled a steak...for cowboys?!

Side note:
I've been lurking in this thread and agree with everyone that Mike I. is a complete tool. Some of you have been referring to him as FWD Mike. What's the "FWD" stand for?

I dont know if it was a case of chefs thinking too hard or not hard enough but someone should have made something steak related. Ranch hands do love their ceviche though.

Haven't decided if the judges' evaluation of Ashley's dish was damning with faint praise. I've started to warm up to her a bit, though to this point she is nowhere near the same league as the best chefs. She's the only one of the lesser chefs I have any attachment to. Robin and Ron need to take off soon.

I am not sure if the Chef must be drunk or you must be.

I'm working on it.

For a brief moment, I was hoping that they would just throw Mattin, Robin, and Ron all off at once at Judges Table. "Who are we kidding? You're all awful. Let's throw you all out and then just fill the next two weeks with Kevin clips and a 'Where Are They Now?' Special."

AMEN.

Ceviche is the new gazpacho.

And yes, the brief clip of Toby Young making a joke about testicles was enough to enrage me. Tempted to skip next week entirely.

Since Fredericks seemed to be elaborating on his "Fuckable When Drunk" quip, I'm wondering whether he quoted your post by mistake, WWP.  Even if not, I'm sure he in no way meant to discourage you.  And, if he did, I'd just ignore him if I were you.

On another note, worse than Toby Young's testicle remark, I thought, was Penn's follow-up vulgarity directed at Padma.

Yes, Sarah I made an error.

Now get back to ignoring me.

Thank You for the edification

I never ignore you, F.  I respect and admire you.  No, I was merely suggesting to our young friend that he (or she) ignore you if you were trying to drive him (or her) away from this thread--which I didn't think you were trying to do in the first place.
