We haven't discussed this in a while...
So can I be the first to say that while I can't figure out why the heck Robin is still there, I was NOT sad to see Mike I. go home last night. Seriously, his douchetastic attitude has irked me since day 1.
I had high hopes for Jennifer making it to the final 3 but the way she's been sucking it up the last couple episodes makes me doubt her. I think she's a good chef but like they said last night, she is obviously uber defeated.
I hate to admit it but the V brothers are good. I like Bryan better than Michael but they are both still really good chefs. I think Michael has a serious attitude problem as well. I hate that he got pissed last night about Kevin's win.
But my all time favorite is definitely Kevin! I have loved him since day 1 and I hope he continues kicking ass and taking names!
So here's how I think it will go down:
Final 4 -- Kevin, Bryan, Jennifer & Michael
Final 3 -- Kevin, Bryan, Jennifer
Winner -- Kevin!
What's everyone else's predictions?
Re: Top Chef (spoilers)
I agree with your predictions. I was pulling for Mike I because his restaurant is in DC (my home turf), but he deserved to go home lat night. The last two challenges Robin has gotten extremely lucky that someone has screwed up more than her or been on a winning team.
I also really like Jennifer, but like you said she's been slipping as of late (BTW can't wait to try her restaurant). She seems to be very inconsistant at this point and I think that is going to really hurt her in the end.
I FPH Kevin and Bryan. They seem to have really good attitudes and truly passionate about good food and sustainability of food, which I really respect. Both of them have been very consistant through out, I think that with their talent will push them through.
My predictions are
Final 4 --- Kevin, Bryan, Jennifer & Michael
Final 3 -- Kevin, Bryan & Michael
Winner -- Kevin
I'm watching my DVRed Top Chef right now, but had to read this post because I wouldn't have time to come back to it, and I was dying to know who got sent home. I'm so glad it's Mike. He seriously gets on my last nerve. Robin needs to go home, too, though. Kevin is my favorite also, and you guys need to be JEALOUS - I have reservations at his restaurant in Atlanta next Friday!!!
If Robin doesn't go home next week, I'll be extremely disappointed. I really like Jennifer, although I got pissed when she looked like she was going to cry a show or two ago. I like her because she's tough!
Kevin's going all the way. Otherwise, I'll be terribly upset!!!
SO JEALOUS!!!
And I totally thought of you all last night when they were making vegetarian food at Tom's steakhouse! lol
You know Tom is my man
I was drooling when they were looking at all those steaks, but I knew from the previews that they were cooking for Natalie Portmana and it would have to be vegetarian. Such a waste!
I was suprised that Robin didn't go home last night! I didn't reallly care about Mike going home b.c he is a PITA but he is still better than she is.
I don't know what had gotten into Jennifer - homegirl needs to get it together! I still think that she can make a come back but I doubt she will win. I at least want to see her beat out Robin & Eli.
I really like Kevin but I have a feeling that Bryan will win. I agree with Shoe's final 3 picks.
Sorry, chiming in on this very late....
I agree completely, I can't believe Robin is still there, I think she has gotten very lucky. Mike didn't really bother me too much, but I didn't think he was a contender for winner.
I really like Jennifer a lot, but it seems she has gotten frazzled and keeps screwing up. Here are my predictions:
Final 4: Kevin, Bryan, Jennifer & Michael
Final 3: Kevin, Bryan & Michael (Just because I think they want to keep the whole Voltaggio brother competition going)
Winner -- Bryan
Btw, I loved it at the judge's table when they made it look like Robin was talking forever and ever....hilarious!
I actually didn't think Mike's dish was send home worthy either. If anyone's dish should have gotten them sent home it was probably Jennifer's. It was like she didn't even care that she only served a side dish. But I am still hoping for a comeback from her so I'm glad she got to stay.
