Last night's episode of Top Chef: New York was pretty intense. I mean, seriously, the producers are really outdoing their selves with the mobile question of the night and all - oh, the drama! Where to begin?
First off, I gotta say that the one person I CANNOT STAND is Carla, with her freakishly long limbs and bugged out eyes. She's got the crazy eyes, and I'm scared.
Um, and Ariane! Ariane, Ariane, Ariane. Please pack up your knives. You better be repeating those words in your head, 'cause dahling, the next chopping block meeting with the judges is going to be the last one. Cry me a river, but how's about you learn how to cook before you come on the show? I was contemplating visiting your restaurant, but after seeing the crapola you've been serving up - no thanks!
Anyway, last night's episode was super intense because New Yorkers are a tough crowd to please. But to be serving your foodies to the rejects that didn't make it to the 18 chosen contestants for the show? H-A-R-S-H. Padma is probably still laughing. Those were not happy campers.
Oh, and for the mobile question of the night: What did you think about Jill's decision to cook with an ostrich egg? Um, duh .. too risky, and no puns ("an egg-cellent choice"), please.

TV Round-Up: Top Chef and More
TOP CHEF NEW YORK. Where do we start?
First off, I've got to hand it to the producers: already after the first episode, I am ATTACHED. And their mobile question of the night? "Which team are you rooting for? Team Rainbow or the Euro Duo?" - WELL PLAYED, BRAVO. You really know how to cut to my heart with such an important question.
IN OTHER TV NEWS!
Cancellations: After 14 seasons, MADtv is in its final season. Lipstick Jungle and My Own Worst Enemy have been canceled.
Casting: After hearing that Amy Poehler gave birth and will no longer be on SNL, the question on everyone's mind was IS KRISTEN WIIG GOING TO PLAY EVERY SINGLE FEMALE CHARACTER ON THE SHOW? Turns out SNL will be featuring two fresh female faces. I'm really wondering what's going to happen with Weekend Update.

There's no question about it: I heart Top Chef. All the drama! The knives! The food! And the best part about this upcoming season of Top Chef is that it's going to be in New York City!
Anyway, the Bravo site has finally updated its Top Chef site with this season's new cheftestants:
Anyway, fear not, fellow fans: I will be sure to do the usual episode recap once the new season airs (November 12th? or whenever Project Runway ends its current season) and starts rolling!
