last season she was one of the Top Chef bloggers on Bravo.com, but so was Eli and he's not back so

I can't believe Jamie lasted another week.

Me too.  I think every chef that has already gone home has been more talented than she is... Elia, Dale, Jen, Spike, and now Casey.   Argh!

I totally agree

I was so annoyed after I watched the show this morning. Jamie really should be gone. Makes me wonder if they're just keeping her on for drama purposes. I felt bad for Kasey. If I were to trust any chef with my dish it would be Tiffany. She seems to have a lot of integrity and wouldn't let your dish fall by the wayside...at least not on purpose.

I am really enjoying this season. They look like they are having so much fun and there isn't so much nasty competitiveness. This episode had a lot of moments where i truly laughed out loud. great ep and i too am shocked that jamie survived..

it's weird though - what kind of drama does she produce? other than people starting to resent her eventually

I actually yelled "Noooooooooooo!" at the TV when I heard Casey's name.  I'm so sad!  She should have gotten points for doing something so hard, even if it didn't turn out well.  LOVED the shots of her painstakingly trimming the chicken feet's toenails!  And her quote something like "I have a personal interest in butchery, and I want to show that I'm the baddest ass female butcher and impress the judges with my chicken feet" was one of my favorite lines of the show! 

Can't stand that Jamie is still there- this is one time that I thought judging should have been cumulative!!!  Her past performance, + the insipid SCALLOP dumpling and overcooked greasy beans should have sent her HOME!!!

How funny was Fabio with his pet Tur-le?!  But, how can he think it's cruel to eat turtles when he's chopping apart meat every day???

[gbailey]

You're right...none. I'm speechless that she's still there but maybe those chicken legs were worse than those overdone green beans and scallop wraps.

yes that was so funny! "I have a little chihuahua leash and he gets two walks per day"people in his neighborhood must think he is nuts! 

[umami_mommy]

i thought it was sooooo cute. i still think he has the sweetest personality.

I think the producers are liking keeping Jaime on.  She cuts her finger and manages to stay.  She makes a terrible dish but her teammates never let her serve it so she squeaks by again.  I'll bet they hope she manages to fly under the radar a few more times just to keep the controversy going.

I have eaten at his burger place and it is DELICIOUS. The milkshakes there are insane- the homemade whipped cream on top is basically butter and is so so good. Haven't tried his pizza place yet, though. I was sad to see him go.

Jaime is an idiot and she needs to go. I'm surprised she hasn't made scallops like 12 times already this season like she did last time. I wasn't impressed with her before, and am definitely not impressed now.

Jealous that you've eaten there!  It is so on my list now!  And I will save some room for a milkshake. 

Well, you got your wish:  Jamie made scallops. They sucked, but somehow she still stayed.  As long as she doesn't make it to the final 4, I'm happy.

And have they focused more on the cuts this season or are these guys some how more clutzy than any other season?
 

[mclisa]

Don't we all Fabio?

[umami_mommy]

he is william shatner's private chef now. i wonder if that is why he is so much better at being ironic and sarcastic this season. 

[MadiMamacita]

Maybe thats it. Last time around he was focused on beating that other annoying European chef at everything and didn't have time to be funny or endearing, I thought. :)

Tonight they have to catch their own fish and two chefs are going home. All I can hope is Jamie's time is finally up. 

[gbailey]

I can't take Marcel. I was so hoping someone would push him overboard. He's so nasty and hateful. I was happy for Carla. His comment to her was just nasty.Not her fault he was on the bottom. Richard needs to step his game up. I get the feeling he doesn't want to  be there but I hope he stays on track and does well. I'd like to see him win a challenge. I can do without Antonia crying about not wanting to see people go home. The less I hear Angelo talk the more I like him. His good always look tasty though. DH wants to go to his restaurant to eat.

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

Finally.  Bye bye Jamie.

I was sad to see Tiffany go, though--although she seems to be a much happier person.  Happier with herself and life, which is good.

I really thought Marcel would go home with Jamie, though.  I do think that something's up with Richard.  I thought he would win it all, now, I'm not too sure.

Yeah for Carla! :)
