Glad to see a new season of Top Chef will be starting soon.

1. ugh Kenley... I like Leanne...
she is just so funky and yet so mousy looking - she probably is a dominatrix behind closed doors


hard to pick a fan favorite this year.. more like least likely to make me vomit

10. I like Leanne, too...
I think you are right about her being a dominatrix!

16. I thought Leanne was one of those mousie types that are gone the first 4 weeks
She's kicking some serious buttocks here

17. Oh yeah -- I didn't see last night's show, did she win again??
My wife and I always crack up because when the judges are giving their critiques, they always show Leanne rolling her eyes...

She is soft spoken, but definitely knows what's up! She just hangs in the background and takes it all in.

2. Yes it sucks this season
I used to watch every single episode when it premiered but this season, I barely know the contestants names. And the first couple of challenges seemed recycled from past seasons.

3. If Kenley and Sarah Palin got in a screaming match....!
:popcorn:

Kenley is sort of a bitch. She does not seem to have an ounce of graciousness about her.

4. I've stopped watching.
I've never done that before. I've always watched every season through to the end. I didn't catch last week, and didn't watch tonight. I just couldn't get into this season. I didn't like the cast much at all.

I thought I heard they're postponing next season until January. Are they starting it this fall after all? I'm kind of interested in seeing the new version.

7. I like Korto
I have never once heard her bad-mouth anyone else. She doesn't need to. She almost always does a good job.

She is very talented and classy. My wife and I are hoping that she wins.

13. Yeah- I like her too, but her niceness makes things a little boring
I long for the a Jeffrey/Laura type of dynamic.

9. I like Korto
Stella was my fave, because she seemed so "anti-" everything the show pretends to be. "see Nina, you CAN use leatha in Elle." :rofl:

12. At first I didn't like Stella, but she slowly became one of my favorites.
She is a hard worker and doesn't take shit from anyone!

Very chic

34. She's got a REALLY HAPPENING Asian/African aesthetic
A lot of her stuff, like the seatbelt coat, looks really simple at first glance, but then you realize that there's a lot going on there.

Also, her stuff both looks super-futuristic and ancient.

She might be my favorite to win.

18. I thought Kenley was cute, at first...
but the more she talks, the less I like her!

Plus, she is very full of herself.

20. Very. And she challenges the judges by folding her arms across
her chest, talking back, and glaring at them. That's taboo, no matter how much you really fell that way!!

I like Jerome. He's very laid-back.

38. and she crosses the line
when she says "what does he know" about Tim Gunn.

I'm hoping that during one of her uncontrolled giggling fits one of the other designers stabs her in the neck with scissors. That's the only reason I'm still watching. (It could happen)

23. it's disappointing overall but i love Korto. I will watch next for sure just because
Kenley gets stupid with my Timmy. Or at least the preview was edited to make it look that way.

27. no she wasn't and the thing that pisses me off is that he tries to help them
and usually he is correct. She needs to learn how to listen.

31. I think Parche is no longer on DU. So there will be no more airplanes on runways
on DU.

33. Jerell and Leanne are my favorites
i would be happy with either of them winning. i really don't want Kenley in the final 3. i would be happy to see her go.

i like Korto but i'm just not into the things she makes. she does have a certain style that is kind of unique and i can see a lot of people liking it. i think she is one of those who will do well after the show is over whether or not she wins.

i think they got rid of Joe over Suede because many times they have an idea of who they want in the final 3. Joe wasn't one of them but he does make good things so they thought it was a good chance to get rid of him. it's likely he would have made something really good next week. they can depend on Suede not doing well.

i think this is what happened in that one season when they had a final 4. they were hoping to get rid of Uli but she did better than the others so just went with a final 4 rather than get rid of one of the ones they wanted in the finals.

there are many people who should never have been on the show this season like Suedge, Blayne and that weird guy who seemed to be out of it and said something about how he had great taste in fashion(and Kenley laughed at him).

37. jerell has really come on strong. i thought that design last night was perfect.
tim g disagrees (if you read his bravo blog) but i thought she looked amazing.

korto, jerell and leeanne have to make the final three.


kenley? i must admit, i want to tuch her but too. but she will not win...
