And we're down to three.  I wasn't sure who we were going to lose but I was pretty confident on who we weren't.

I liked the part at the end where the top 4 contestants were sitting around bemoaning that they all ended up in the same season because each individually could probably win one of the weaker seasons (*cough* last season).

Shit, that final 4 - even the final 5 of this season could have smoked Season 5. I think it was bullshit who they sent home out of that group.

I agree, I really hate the brothers.  I hope Kevin smashes them.

I'm not crazy about the brothers, either.  One of them seems to be a dick and the other one is a pussy.  Sheesh.

At least 2 of the seasons, sure. Not sure any of them could've beaten Harold or Hung though. Kevin might be able to at least compete and not totally embarrass himself though.

It was an interesting choice. I almost wish they'd just said, "Fuck it, this final is gonna have 4 people all the way, that's just the way it is." I can't help but think that they chose Jen just because she was the only one of the four to have had an inconsistent history of performance across the season and thus that there was some chance she'd freak or fizzle in the finale + the good drama of having the brothers mano-a-mano in the finale.

It's interesting that at least one of the brothers seems to have taken an interest in Kevin's approach to food rather than just being a dick about it. If one or either of them goes balls-out and really comes up with something that tastes as great as it looks, Kevin may not be able to come over the top.

I concur.

He's right about that. The editing really was confusing as fuck, especially considering who they chose to win.

Yeah I'm with everyone, but that's the rules. It's about only the competition of the day. Honestly, at some point I think they should start considering more. But these things all seem to stick to their rules.

If you can read this, you're on a board populated by misogynist assholes.

I don't like him, either.  Unfortunately, he really does seem to be chock full of talent, doesn't he?  I really did enjoy this season, though.

I enjoyed the end of the season.  The first several weeks were all about wading through crap until we got to the final 4 people we all expected to be there.

Oh well. I know whose restaurant I'd like to go to the most.

Speaking of which, Eli has a new gig starting in January in Manhattan.
