Had it with the Food Channel...

I thought it was about time for that person to go. There was one large obstacle that person couldn't seem to overcome - and it kept being mentioned again and again. Finally it got to the point where they couldn't avoid it.

I feel like Melissa has been kept week after week because she is so much like last season's Kelsey. Debbie has been kept because she offers a POV that the FN doesn't already have represented. The others I'm not sure about. Michael - they already have Guy Fieri; Jamika - they have the Neelys and Aaron; and jeffrey - he just rubs me the wrong way. He behaved badly with Jamika last week on Rachael Ray's show and this week I thought he failed to step up to the leadership role when he needed to.

Can I be the spoiler now, since the reruns aired last night? Michael, how many times can you say you don't like the camera before you get bumped? That's kind of a h-u-g-e problem. But I thought Debbie failed as the expediter at the party. She just lucked out because the committee liked her dishes better than anyone else's. I thought there were several occasions when Jeffrey needed to take charge - when the menu was being planned and getting more and more complicated; when he knew each individual could not exceed $300 at the grocery store or they'd be over budget; and when the food was just not making it out of the kitchen, he was schmoozing with the party guests. But he made it through another week anyway. We'll see what happens this week. I predict that Debbie will be one of the final two because the committee seems to like her.
