    I was kinda surprised at Tuschman's speech too. This is exactly what Amy Findlay did. Well.....almost. She proclaimed that she didn't want to be there anymore and won the contest. Is Nipa going to be the winner? Since when did they abandon the diverse cook idea? Why do these people keep contradicting themselves?

    Booby Flake lol lol lol Great name for him!! Too much competition in the romantic fella. Not only did he tell him he didn't beleive in his style, he booted him out the door. Booby is a network pioneer almost. No way can anybody upstage him.

    That raw egg thing was a total joke. What was the judge looking at when she plopped the slimy mess into her mouth? I saw a piece on her tongue and thought I was going to lose it. Gross!!!! I know everybody had to see it. Wouldn't a chef have some idea as to how long an egg should be cooked before serving it? Apparently not??

    So far, I find the challenges pretty dumb but entertaining to see just how much they can mess up. 30 minutes for prep time is almost impossible. You're right. It's totally unrealistic to what the network needs. If the chefs don't entertain me for 30 minutes to an hour, I turn the channel. Amy Findlay had no appeal at all--no wonder she's gone. They have 30 people in the background preparing everything for them so why is this such a focus in the contest? Makes no sense.

    Personality, knowledge, performing in front of a camera, are what it's going to take. Who knows if those dishes they prepare are even edible? They may look great but nobody can convince me that every single dish prepared on every single show is absolutely delicious. In my opinion, most of them are half cooked. Booby Flake is a master of raw chicken.

    Guy Fieri: Holy Cow!! I could write a book on that guy. His cholesterol must be 435, triglycerides 1002. He eats like he has a garbage can behind his mouth. He is a slob and some of his handling techniques in the mom and pop restaurants is despicable. He actually cooks and serves food to people

    Let's look forward to more stellar performances from some of the network's brightest stars. Can't wait!!!

    O.K. TVFN junkies.....

    I heard this from a cyberpal.

    Robert Irvine's DInner Impossible is going to be cancelled.

    A problem with his resume'!

    Why? Apparently somewhere he had some kind of job doing Princess Di's wedding. The problem come up with her cake. My pal told me that he claimed to have baked it-but, he may have just been a sous chef on the job.


    If you look at his creds for the opening segments one set of shows claim that he cooked for three presidents, then another set of shows claim four presidents.

    -------

    I was under the impression that he was a steady chef in the White House.
    I guess cooking a meal or two, does qualify you to say you cooked for a president, but now I am really curious, I looked up some info and couldn't find anything about the cancellation.

    I put in resume after his name and sure enough!

    OUCH!!!!! -- That smarts !

    Good detective work, Richard !! Isn't this a bit embarrassing for Chef Irvine? He'll be lucky to find another job in the field of cooking.
