It's really incomprehensible that in one of their signature challenges everyone defers to a person who doesn't even utter a word in the show.

Padma looked especially luminous last night.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> I was a bit confused last night, Winehouse or Strong? Also a bit disappointed they didn't do more of a horror movie cringe for the chef's reaction to the dirty b-word.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> My favorite detail: Guest judge Daniel Boulud, sidelined completely while Padma Lakshmi reads, at length, from a food blogger who -- for some reason -- wasn't asked to actually sit at the judges' table.

I was sure either Dale or Bryan was going to go all Dave from Season 1 on us and just flip out and bawl. Instead I think that somehow Bryan was able to just sweat all his tears out.
Also, Strong was the weakest part of the show, even taking the oversmoked potatoes into account. The "metal meat" guy would've been a much more fun food critic.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> @josh speed: I thought that was him too. What a bitch.

I Don't Get It

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> Dale should have totally bitchslapped that "the meat tasted like metal" queen. That would have made the show.

BTW: Padma speaks slower the more celeb the guest chef. With Boulud, she was practically worse than Merry Miller. Maybe it's to keep from jumping out of her clothes. Or maybe it's the way Salman taught her to read him his bedtime stories.

Queen of the Passive Aggressives

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> People make a big deal about how Andrea Strong left her career as an attorney to follow her passion for food, as if that makes up for the fact that she is Scary Sadshaw no. 1 who worked as a hostess in some failed restaurant for a year and now considers herself a critic. Johnny Apple, Julia Child and James Beard are all rolling in their graves, looking for a sharp object with which to re-kill themselves.

KarenUhOh

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> I fell asleep last night infront of the TV watching re-runs of Top Chef waiting for the new one. I woke up in the middle of the night or early morning and the show was still on, still re-runs. Now I have Howie's voice in my head, Padma telling those kids they can't go clubbing, Hong is an assshole, noooo, please don't send her home, the horrendous pinneapple desserts, the telemundo lunch, aaarrrgghhhh!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE GET THEM OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the rat

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> Strong's blog is a complete mess. Her food ratings seem to be based solely on the quantity of flirtatious attention received from the ex-boyfriend du jour dining with her. She must have dined sad and alone at Restaurant April to produce such vitriol. If only Brian had rubbed her tummy...

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> Among the other dangers of watching reality television I mentioned yesterday--acne, dysthenia, public masturbation, being a bore--I apparently missed one: losing your fucking mind.

Mediahohoho

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> I loved how everyone reacted when they said ". . . a blogger!" Like it automatically meant everyone was going to be totally and immoderately ripped apart in a mean-spirited and only marginally correct way. That's not at all what this whole blog thing is about. Right? Right?

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> Madonna's brother Christopher Ciccone--uncredited--was one of the judges last night too, no?

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> @AndYourLittleDogToo: I know, don't knock it 'till you've tried it! On another note: is it wierd to anyone else that the color black is automatically and exclusively associated billy idol?

What it is

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> I always thought that there was only one food blog, and they were all written by the same person. Who, in turn, is secretly controlled by Daily Candy.

Ha Ha Sound

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> It's been great to watch Josh, in the last four weeks or so, really find his voice. It's all coming together, dude, and it keeps getting better. It's always fun to watch that happen, especially when someone's got talent: short burst, long burst, or premature burst, whatever.

OK, enough sucking up, dick.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> @joshuadavidstein1:

Yeah, I typed it so fast that I typed it "Ubo" instead of "Ubu". Damn fingers.

Ubu Roi provided a huge amount of material for Bill Griffith's "Zippy the Pinhead".

depardoo

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> That episode was overwhelming. I resorted to the usual comfort foods: gobs of chorizo, fistfuls of pinenuts, and a fennel-infused smoothie.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> @depardoo: thanks, i changed it to the correct title Ubu Roi.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> Is it possible they sent Gail Simmons home instead? And there was just not enough room on her flight out of Miami.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> I thought it was hilarious when they said, "And now we'll bring out our secret weapon: a blogger!"

I can't wait to see Krucoff, Radosh and Balk's Cock as guest judges on "America's Next Top Model."

bitchyenglishmajor

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> Can anyone read what it says on her t-shirt? Something about her tummy?

Actually, the play is called Ubo Roi. Pere Ubu is the main character.

]]> <![CDATA[Why Is Andrea Strong Such A Hater?]]> those who can't cook write, those who can't write blog, those who can't blog send e-mail newsletters and those who can't do even that end up as a guest judge on Top Chef.

I finally have found my blog's userinfo quote. Thank you for that.

Of course when I say "blog" I mean my LiveJournal.
