Bottom Chef

This is not a typical post from me. I can’t even be bothered to find images to accompany this one. I almost never post about reality tv shows, though I am a fan of many of them. I detest anything with singing or dancing, but throw a bunch of people into a house and/or creative competition and I am almost certainly there.

Top Chef has remained one of the best produced, most interesting, and creative shows in this genre. All of that changed last night. This episode was, by far, the worst of the series (and that’s saying something since Hosea was once named the winner…). Washington DC is, of course, a political town. Top Chef, however, did not have to “go there” with the whole school lunch thing. If anyone, First Lady included, thinks they can abolish childhood obesity in a generation (or twelve), they are delusional. For Top Chef to pay such respect to such bull truly diminished the spirit of the show. When the cheftestants of the first season were charged with creating lunch for children using monkfish, they had FUN. The teams were still able to cook healthy food, but without the OMG!NO MONEY FOR SCHOOL LUNCHES pity party hanging over their heads. Even the kids in this episode seemed bored.

This season is off to a very slow start overall. I spent the first episode thinking, “Shut up, Tim, you big baby,” only to have him redeem himself (at least temporarily) in this episode. Maybe I just hated everything else so much that even Tim didn’t bother me. I don’t know. I’ve never turned against a show so quickly (not even Lost), and I am hoping that this isn’t the end for this fandom. Get back to doing what you do right, show!

  21. Hi, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.

    When I look at your website in Opera, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it
    has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!
    Other then that, excellent blog!

  22. You can definitely see your enthusiasm in the work you write.
    The world hopes for even more passionate writers like you who aren’t afraid to say how

  23. I have been surfing on-line greater than three hours nowadays,
    but I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s pretty price enough for me. In my view, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet can be
    much more useful than ever before.

  24. Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
    I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a hard time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.

    You actually know how to bring a problem to light and make
    it important. A lot more people must read this and understand
    this side of the story. I was surprised you’re not more popular given that you certainly
    have the gift.

  29. When someone writes an article he/she keeps the
    idea of a user in his/her brain that how a user can know it.
    Thus that’s why this piece of writing is outstdanding.
