...and maybe throw in a madeleine pan while we're at it...

With "Rock of Love II" pretty much out of the way (yeah, I know about the upcoming reunion show, and the Total Bimbo Smackdown that I can expect, but it's more or less over now), I'm settling in on yet another season of "Hell's Kitchen," and -- I don't know -- I feel like maybe the bloom's off the rose on that one. I still would like very much to have Gordon Ramsay take me into the pantry and punish me with a pastry whisk, but he's got a real bunch of buffoons this season, and I can't see myself rooting for any one of 'em this time around (although little LouRoss has the potential to be the Christian Siriano of Hell's Kitchen).

But then...oh...Gordon. You know how I loves me them beat-up lookin', foul-mouthed Brit football hooligans. Especially if they know how to cook.

Pastry whisk. That's right.

They always seem like a bunch of buffoons at this point - there's only been 3 eliminations. When it gets down to about the final 5 or 4 the cooking gets serious. Christ, last season you had Happy-Crying Fat Boy, who was buffoon enough for this season's entire cast. My money's on Louross and Shayna.

Well at least they got rid of the misogynistic fat asshole...Was that guy for real? And I'm with you--I wouldn't want any of these people preparing a BAGEL for me, muchless running a million-dollar restaurant.

I must needs admit that I have the hots for Ramsey as well, although I can't really stomach Hell's Kitchen. I'm more of a Kitchen Nightmares type of gal.
