Hell's Kitchen (9/19)

I can't lie.

I'm a little disappointed that Elise didn't make it to the finals and didn't win it all.  For all her bitchiness, she was just so passionate and talented.

It was nice that she was a key part of Paul's win!

Re: Hell's Kitchen (9/19)

  • Eh, I am so glad Elise didn't make it to the finals.... she didn't deserve it.

    I was quite surprised that Will did not win, though either Will or Paul was a good pick.  I am glad that Paul won.

  • I felt so bad that Will didn't win. I had picked him from the very beginning, and he really brought it through the whole competition.

  • I wanted it to be Elise and Will in the finals and for Will to take it all. I'm still shocked that Paul won.

    Talent and passion can only get you so far, you also need to be able to play nice with others. Yes, being a boss you can't be everyone's friend, BUT you do need to have the respect of the people around you to run an effective kitchen. Or anything really.

    Once it came down to Paul and Will, it didn't matter to me who won. Just glad it wasn't Elise.

  • Elise was a talented chef, you could see that when she saved the day on Paul's service, but she wasnt as good as Paul and Will.  She showed that when she was in charge during the 4 chef service.

    I have no idea how Tommy made it so far.  I also thought it was hilarious that he made out with his girlfriend before he even acknowledged his mother. 

    I predicted Paul for about the last 6 weeks.

  • I hated Elise's attitude. I was so glad she didn't make it to finals. She didn't deserve to win at all. She was shady and didn't respect others. I can't believe Ramsay let her get that far when she was up for elimination almost every single week.

    Once it was between Paul and Will, I didn't care. I liked them both the whole season.

  • Elise is a mega biotch.  I hate when people blame others for their wrong doings and she totally did that most of the season.  I would have been happy if either of the guys one, but I was a little happier that it was Paul.  Will was too obvious of a choice---I mean most people probably thought he was going to win.

    exactly.  makes for good tv.  

    i was so happy when she was FINALLY eliminated.  i don't care how good of a chef she is, no one respects her, and it's not hard to see why.  i wouldn't want to work with her.

  • I'm glad Elise didn't win. She didn't need to be rewarded for her bad behavior.

  • Elise wasn't supposed to win. There is a fine line between being a leader and being an annoying bossy ***.  She may have been passionate about her cooking, but there was also the fact that she threw others under the bus so she could win.  She also made deals with the guys to keep her on the show.  Paul was the only one that found his way through the fog.  I liked the way he lead his team as well.  Of course she helped Paul, only because she understood that Paul's mother's wish was for him to win.  Even though if I didn't like a person, if it comes to their mother I can't touch it, if it meant a lot to the momz even though she had passed, I would do the same thing for anybody who expected that last wish. Patience is a virtue. Practice it.
  • Also glad Elise didn't win, but I could care less about anyone else this season. There was sooo much time spent on the drama this season, it was really hard to tell who the decent cooks were, much less care about them. Hopefully next season has a little less drama.
  • I think Will would have won if he had picked Carried instead of Krupa, or if he had thrown Krupa off of the fish before she messed everything up.

    My husband and I were talking, and we think maybe Elise is just a better chef when she's not competing. She was perfectly fine during Paul's service, but a total asshat during every other service ever. 

    I hope next season is more about the cooking.
