Hey, elia: Way to step forward and tentatively complain re: Wolverine’s “cheating”, for a gain of zero yards, seconds before your head rolled.
Elia: [Vague references to Wolverine's cheating][1]
Judge that is indistinguishable from Billy Joel’s child bride from season 1:
[You mean there was cheating] today?
Elia: Uh, no…
Words of advice for the future: Don’t be a puppet, especially Mark Renton’s.
Double props for Colicchio for: “I don’t care what happens in the kitchen”, perhaps the line of the season, and for Sam for kicking out while maintaining grace / not getting trapped in the puppet show.
So much for Top Chef being “the reality show where nice guys win”, as we’re down to two egomaniacs in the final round. As it should be.

I was sad to see Sam go. Elia had been slowly losing her grip on reality thought. Culminating in the master of puppetry by Ilan. I think Ilan might be a serial killer. And wtf, shouldn’t xanthan gum be barred from this show?
i was rooting for sam, too, but combining a sam-win this season with harold last season… it would just have been too much “normal guy who is excellent cook”-winning. it would have broken one of the fundamental rules of reality TV: the most odious animals often win. i suspected they would find some way to eject sam… although colicchio’s “he didn’t really cook anything” reason is such bullshit.
isn’t xanthan gum what they use to stick f/x appliances to actor’s faces? i guess that’s spirit gum… xanthan gum sounds like an explosive.
I’d like to see Marcel have to make something with spirit gum. A mustached foam perhaps.
sam is too hot to be the normal guy. he will be hosting his own bs show someday soon.
