That thought had occurred to me too. quote: Originally posted by Foghorn Leghorn: Could be, but saying he has the most promise out of these yahoos is like picking our President from the local soup kitchen.
Yeah, you don't want to be doing that again.

... have seen this show twice. I don't think I like anyone involved. I go between being disgusted and wanting to smack someone....

So we have to look at Matt "I just sucked a lemon - or maybe I just sucked" for at least one more episode.

Am I the only person who nearly wet myself laughing when the girls served their fish dish? The presentation looked so incredibly phallic. How the f2k do you get to be aged 16, living in California, and having such a huge party, yet you've never eaten shrimp before? Seriously?

My 18 year old daughter was asking the same thing. (One of her favorite dishes is shrimp cerviche.) She asked, "Is this party for the girl or her mother?" Mom reminded me of one of those avaricious harpies on Real Wives of the OC.

I'm always glad to see someone with one of this silly fauxhawks get the boot anywhere, any time.

Matt made up for it with the gloating and snide comments. I understand he feels vindicated (deservedly or not), but he's got to cool it. Evidently Ramsey didn't hear, or he'd have screamed at him to shut his gob.

The "happiest day of Matt's life" was winning a challenge. I bet his wife was real happy to hear that. As stated earlier, by many, none of these yahoos deserve to have a restaurant. That being said, I still can't figure out the best of the bad....

It must be especially frustrating for Ramsey. He can't just hand over the winner to someone else this time. Being a sneaky so-and-so, and playing these Survivor-type alliance games, certainly won't endear you to a prospective employer. Half way through, and none of them are even consistant. I think they only completed one dinner service so far.

I have a feeling it's going to wind up being between Jen and Bobby. Christina and the Androgynous Bog Brush will probably make the final four.

Last night BBC Americas was showing Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares Revisited. He went back to the Lancashire pub and was telling the owner that it was important to praise and motivate his staff. With a straight face.
