I'm actually surprised they were able to cull together enough clips of Arryn for his departing montage.

Finally finished off the ep. I could listen to Ramsay yell "RAWR" all day long.

Christian may be able to cook, but he's an ass and nobody likes to see the ass win. I'm thinking it could be Ben based on how well he's doing. Adrian could possibly be top 3, but his cooking is too Hispanic. The guy seems unable to make something that isn't outside that realm.

I like Adrian, but his dishes have been very inconsistent. A few weeks ago he made a dish that looked like feces marinated in diarrhea.

I love hearing Gordon say "Rawr!!" He cracks me up everytime he uses it on Hell's Kitchen and this show.

Loved Jennifer calling out Christian as an "arrogant son of a bitch" and a "punkass little piece of shit". The editors on these reality shows can make people bad, but apparently he really is a douche.

As to who will win I'd like to see the cutie Tracy win. I like the chart from wiki that shows the progression of the show.

Re: MasterChef -- The 2nd Season Thread -- Premieres 6/06/11 on FOX

Just finished last night's episode.

Very disappointed it was non-elimination. Really? All the cheese souffles were that good? Was so hoping that douche bag Christian would get eliminated.

I really liked Jennifer calling out Christian and all those names.

Missed Joe's drama queen antics.

Re: MasterChef -- The 2nd Season Thread -- Premieres 6/06/11 on FOX

It's amazing how much better this show has become since last season.

Why'd they have to can my dude tonight? I was rooting for Derrick. Didn't expect Ramsay to dump two people at once.

I hate Christian, but I love seeing Jennifer winning over him simply bc he hates her the most.

Anyone else annoyed by Graham's lame-ass promo mugging while the chefs cook? "Oh, I see you're using the new MasterChef non-stick pan which uses no PFEs..."

Yeah, I was rooting for Derrick, too. His expression when Joe put his sandwich in the trash -- oh, I felt so bad for him.

Re: MasterChef -- The 2nd Season Thread -- Premieres 6/06/11 on FOX

I figured after the no-elimination week, there'd be a double elim at some point, especially with how commonly Gordon would mention it during the eliminations. And it would be pretty hard to put that off, so when Derrick was left standing there, automatically said to myself "He's gone too."

It was weird that shortly after dumping his food in the trash, Joe pretty much offered him a job.

It's the lamest product placement this side of Hawaii 5-0.

The product placement makes me laugh, it just adds to the enjoyment for me because it's so blatant.

Graham looks really creepy without his glasses.

As much as I don't like Christian, it's obvious he's the best chef.

Noooooo, they can't send Tracy home. She was the only one worth looking at. And while Christian may be the best chef I still think Ben wins.

I didn't know last nights Hells Kitchen was a 2 hours, I could swear I saw the Masterchef contestants in Red and Blue kitchens cooking scallops and risotto.

It wasn't? They were both 1 hour yesterday, and 1 hour tonight.

Damn Ben! I guess it's Jennifer and Christian for the final two. I like Adrien, but he usually can't cook. Suzy is useless.

Going to be a bit slow without the humor from Ben. Oh well.

Except Suzy was the only one to nail Gordon's venison dish, right down to the look. So it may depend on what the challenges are and maybe who they want to win. They could easily skew the dishes to a chef they know is more talented than the others. Or even just outright cheat.

I was just pointing out that the Masterchef episode on Monday was a carbon copy of Hell's Kitchen

Re: MasterChef -- The 2nd Season Thread -- Premieres 6/06/11 on FOX

I thought that Tracy and Ben had a good chance of going to the end. But Tracy's inexperience with fileting fish and Ben just folded even with all the hints from Ramsey. But Christian is good, or at least he will tell you that many, many times. His attitude sucks and I would love to see him lose to Suzy just to see the look on his face.

Anyone watch the Australian version? Season 3 had 80+ episodes. They run from Sunday to Friday, I guess the show is huge over there.

They have a master class, then a team challange, then the winner gets to compete for immunity, an elimination and a couple of random episodes a week.

Actually with the in-fighting that's been going on between Christian and Jennifer that would be funnier.

Bump

It's final 4 starting tonight.

I'm rooting for Jennifer to take it all. Frankly, I was surprised in last week's episode that Ben Starr endorsed Adrien.

FYI, No Hell's Kitchen tonight.

Tonight is the 2 hour MasterChef season finale.
