I am with everyone on TCM, I like it but I don't love it. I think Cinethia nailed it, there's no one to root for week-to-week and the host is so vapid there's no familiar face from week-to-week that we like. I did enjoy this ep, though. I thought all the chefs were nice and I particularly liked John B. Has anyone that won the quick-fire not won the whole thing? The challenge was so cool and their responses to it were as well. Anita deserved the win and I look forward to seeing her in the finals. She's so self-effacing for a star chef, isn't she? Hey SB, I had to hold off comment until I watched…had delayed it on DVR.

I love him with NPH - too cute! I was kinda disappointed with the egg challenge. I thought it was boring and not all it was cracked up (hehe egg pun!) to be. That being said, I loved the magic challenge and how each chef made their food fit the themes. I was so excited because David Burtka was there!! I love him with NPH – too cute!

It's in Vegas this time 'round. Yay!!! I'm with you guys - I like TCM, but it's sure as hell no Top Chef. I completely agree that there's a lack of investment in the chefs on TCM because they change every week plus they're professionals playing for charity so the stakes just aren't the same. It's a nice way to pass the time, but it's all about the real show. Without Padma and Tom, it could never live up. Can't wait to watch this and see NPH though!

I really, really, really WANT to love it, but it just falls flat to me. There's no investment in the people, so I really don't CARE who wins or loses. It's OK and will tide me over until the REAL Top Chef comes back.... It IS coming back .... Right??? I agree with you about TCM!!
