Top Chef (yes, spoilers up in here)
Glad to see Jamie finally going home, although I'll miss hating on her. Too bad Tiffani had to go, too. I thought it was kind of sh!tty that they had to announce Antonia should've won the challenge. Maybe tell her that off camera, but it kind of takes the fun out of it for Carla. Anyway, Richard dodged a major bullet. For the supposed front runner, he's having a rough time of it.
I know they say there is no drama figured in and all the judging is based on the food, but COMMON, they are going to keep Marcel's loud mouth in the competition until it is utterly impossible to let him pass through. I guess it's good Dale went to anger management, but I would've liked to see him lay drunk Marcel the fukc out when they were on the roof. What a tw@t.
Not that I didn't know I loved them before, but I have a Pavlovian response to hearing the words "fish tacos." I want them so bad right now!

I felt bad for Carla when Tom announced that too. I'm actually kind of glad Blais has been knocked down a couple notches. The first few episodes of him talking about how awesome he was were really making me dislike him.
I watch every episode afraid that Marcel is going to rap at me, and I was hoping they would send him home last night just to eliminate that possibility.
You can do a fish taco keg stand in July. Wait. That sounds dirty.
If by "dirty" you mean "heavenly," then you are correct.

I don't really buy that they keep Marcel for the drama. Up until last night, Jamie has provided far more drama than Marcel. I think Marcel is a decent cook, despite his twattiness. I hate Dale too, so during the really weird fight (was Marcel saying Dale on;y cooked 8 dishes of dim sum?), I was picturing two small dogs yapping at each other while the big dog (Tre) who could kick both their asses at the same time looked on.
Cooking one dish was stupid in that it tied your fate to two people you can't really control, but was smart in that it would have been hard to justify sending home one or two of the three. Which brings me to my biitch point about this episode's set up (and I'm had one almost every week). It made no sense to me that it was partial group judging. I prefer either judge them as a team and send all three of the worst team home or judge them by dishes and let Antonia win.

I think I remember reading somewhere (maybe it was an interview with Bourdain?) that Top Chef is one of the few reality shows that doesn't have a whole lot of producer intervention to keep people around solely for drama.
I was also sad Tiffani went home. I was really enjoying her this season.
I really thought he was going to do a hate rap to Dale on the roof. He was speaking kind of rhythmically.
