Giada was hoping to GOD he'd pull some fantastic answer out of his rear end so they could swing the vote in his favour at the last second. It was funny watching poo poo like Wikipedia accidentally announce too early that Rodney had actually won, since I think everyone watching the show saw that coming. Like was that the gimmick this year? Trying to set up this weird Force of Nature antagonist who would just blunder his way to the top oafishly so we'd all have someone to root against? Man it was so weird, like I can see Russell lose to Damaris, but I sure as hell can't see Russell lose to Rodney. Like he actually hurt the show overall, it was so weird watching him get that far, and I want to hear the story behind it.

Just got around to watching the finale. Danushka totally deserves her own show and the clips of Alton trolling Giada were pretty great. I can't believe she kept up her "spigiti" crusade after Alton first shot it down.

Well, Deen's racism lawsuit got tossed out; http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2013/08/12/race-based-claims-thrown-out-in-discrimination-lawsuit-against-paula-deen/ The ruling lets stand Jackson's claims that Hiers sexually harassed her when she worked at the restaurant from 2005 to 2010. However, the judge said he was reserving the chance to rule on requests from Deen's lawyers to dismiss other claims in the lawsuit.

He's great at trolling her in general. Hilarious stuff. Rodney losing means I don't have to swear off FN.  Even worse, the damned Food Truck show starts next week.  I saw the light at the end of the tunnel.

Oh thank god Rodney didn't win. I only watched one episode of that series and I loving hated Rodney. Didn't he un-ironically say swag at one point? Anyway, good luck to that chick and her show that will be added to the piles of shows FN seems to introduce every week. Sex Beef 2.0 fucked around with this message at 08:50 on Aug 13, 2013 |

It looks like there's going to be another Rachel Vs Guy Disaster to look forward to in about a month. They just had an ad for Rachel vs. Guy Kid's Cook Off or whatever during Cutthroat Kitchen.

Haha yeah, Guy says something like "we'll give them a challenge and an hour to cook it!" and all the girls dressed as Rachel go "WE ONLY NEED THIRTY MINUTES!!!" Well yeah because your macaroni and cheese comes from a box.

The challenges on this show are the best. In the first round one girl had to cook while using tin foil instead pans and utensils. Then in the second round one of the guys had to make mac and cheese with cheetos and doritos instead of cheese.

I'm not sure what they did but I think the "best" solution would be to smash them a bit, deep fry them and pretend they were croquettes.

For me, the most irksome thing is that the food is playing second fiddle to the shenanigans. It's less of a cooking show and more like a culinary obstacle course and what's coming out on the other side is unimpressive. I don't mind it but I also really like Evil Alton. Plus it's miles ahead of NFNS and Rachael v Guy whatever. Duro posted:The excessively fake and hammed up personalities?

Cutthroat Kitchen strikes me as a show that tries to make everyone that guy on Chopped that you hate and really hope will get Chopped but who lasts at least one round longer than they should because they know that makes good TV. My problem is I actually do hate that person and don't get as much satisfaction out of them getting Chopped as a I do just not watching them. Edit: Case in point, of the four chefs in this episode one insisted people think she's too much of a pretty diva to be a chef, one calls himself DJ Chef and another referred to himself as "an assassin". axelblaze fucked around with this message at 03:09 on Aug 26, 2013 |

Why are they adding another fake as hell hidden camera show? Are these really that popular? This one barely even has anything to do with food.

They showed a preview of Rachel vs Guy's kid cookoff and some of the food they showed actually looked pretty good. Then I remembered some story about a 13 year old or something cooking world class food. Now I just want to see the kids embarrass Rachel and Guy by blowing their food out of the water. It's not like it's that difficult to outcook them.

See, I kind of want DJ Chef to just die. Like if he loses I won't be happy because that means one of these other assholes will win and he gets smug over winning $100, I'll hate him even more so having him suddenly die would be the best solution.

Both their "crab cakes" look absolutely awful. It'll be funny is DJ Chef loses, not because of the bad Crab hi inflicted on himself, but because his salsa has pineapple, which the judge said he usually doesn't like.

I love how almost every losing RTV contestant will say something like "You haven't seen the last of me" or "This isn't the end, it's just the beginning." Bro, if your story begins with losing to "DJ Chef" on "Cutthroat Kitchen," I have no interest in seeing it play out to its conclusion. Sorry.

DJ Chef won. gently caress this show. Not watching again. Duro posted:See, if I was on cutthroat kitchen, I'd just not spend a dime and let them sabotage me. I'd then try to cook my rear end off and hope I managed to win the full prize That one guy basically did that (mainly by losing the bidding over and over and having the other two gang up on him). He was obviously the best chef too.

I wonder if they sign an agreement saying that you can't plan with the other contestants that nobody bids on anything. Also, Cutthroat Kitchen is everything awesome about Chopped without any of the stupid attempted class or professionalism. Also Alton being sassy.

Why is it that Food Network seemingly gets a major hard on for having contestants from previous shows be on new seasons of challenge shows? Das, a boring and forgettable contestant on NFNS, is now on The Great Food Truck Race. His truck is all about sliders! How original!

I got about 15 minutes into an episode of Cutthroat Kitchen and just couldn't take it. Alton was great, but the contestants just made it completely unbearable with their caustic kitchen chatter. "How are those apple sours, chef?" "Thanks for the tinfoil, chef." "That pot looks nice, chef." I know, I GET IT. Kitchen etiquette is to address a real chef by that title since they earned it, and it's supposedly really insulting to say it at the end of a sentence ironically. Just shut the gently caress up and cook something! I came to watch you be creative with the poo poo you got dealt, not be catty bitches to each other.

When the one female chef said, "I want to win the title!" I cringed. No one gives a poo poo about the title, it is about the cash. Spend it wisely, and walk away with more than you would on chopped, plus you get a lovely title.

Chopped would be so much more fun if they didn't make the contestants use garbage ingredients. I get the point, but I really don't want to watch people cook with expired pork and frosted flakes a dog peed on.
