Chopped, please go back to your original formula.

There's no need for another All-Stars
gayporn 26th-Feb-2013 06:21 pm (UTC)
The original formula had competitors cooking a three course meal for a rich man and whoever gets chopped has to feed their dish to the rich man's chihuahua.

did anyone else see the ep where the guy had like a beet reduction or smthg and just threw it on the plates and drowned them with 1 second left, i died
tuggernuts 26th-Feb-2013 06:09 pm (UTC)
yes lol
this_repetition 26th-Feb-2013 06:30 pm (UTC)
Those sort of things always crack me up about this show.
ladyjj 26th-Feb-2013 06:50 pm (UTC)
Where Amanda's plate was drowned in sauce? That was classic
violue 26th-Feb-2013 10:08 pm (UTC)
lmao that was a mess
simplychristina 26th-Feb-2013 06:05 pm (UTC)
Elizabeth Falkner - eternal cooking show competitor. I do like her though, and totally admire her baked goods.

Would like to see 3 & 4 the most.
this_repetition 26th-Feb-2013 06:33 pm (UTC)
I'm starting to think Faulkner retired from her day job or she does these as a vacation.
hollymarchosias 26th-Feb-2013 07:15 pm (UTC)
lol, same, although I did see her do a cooking demo in Miami a few years back
lovealwaysliana 26th-Feb-2013 06:05 pm (UTC)
I like to watch chopped when I'm at home with my mom
inkblot_hearts 26th-Feb-2013 11:35 pm (UTC)
Same. I've been watching it up at school too.

A+ icon btw
actrisse 26th-Feb-2013 06:06 pm (UTC)
I am so ready to finally see Scott cook because I haven't seen him do anything other than bitch about red onions...with that said, I have a huge crush on him.
soapboxstandoff 26th-Feb-2013 06:08 pm (UTC)
ew girl no
celtic_thistle 26th-Feb-2013 06:09 pm (UTC)
lmao him and his red onion hatred.
tuggernuts 26th-Feb-2013 06:11 pm (UTC)
out of all the judges, i always feel like his food would be the worst
this_repetition 26th-Feb-2013 06:34 pm (UTC)
I almost hope so because he's such a prick.
ladyjj 26th-Feb-2013 06:49 pm (UTC)
Me too--the cooking not the crush tho. I hope The judges give it to him good.
sandstorm 26th-Feb-2013 06:57 pm (UTC)
lmao I know!
shimmersea 27th-Feb-2013 09:37 am (UTC)
I am with you. I love this meatball so much I can't stand it.

I'm with him on raw onion too. That stuff is nasty.
soapboxstandoff 26th-Feb-2013 06:08 pm (UTC)
ugh this is so gimmicky. I did like the teenage one they did though, that was cool
celtic_thistle 26th-Feb-2013 06:08 pm (UTC)
I fucking love Chopped. Haven't seen any eps in a while bc we got rid of cable...where can I watch it?

yessssssssssss

Hulu, but it doesn't update much.
ragechill 26th-Feb-2013 06:21 pm (UTC)
Can't wait for this! I have a soft spot for the chopped judges so I always hope they win.
gayporn 26th-Feb-2013 06:24 pm (UTC)
I love Chuck Hughes and Nadia G aka Adult Jennifer Lawrence. I wish I had the Cooking channel.
this_repetition 26th-Feb-2013 06:29 pm (UTC)
I watch so much of this show just as background noise it's ridiculous. Alex grew on me after Next Iron Chef. I always thought her cooking show as great but she seemed like a sour puss on this show.
misspinkkate 26th-Feb-2013 06:33 pm (UTC)
I can't wait to see people with no professional cooking experience try to use all the weird basket shit
sylarsexypants 26th-Feb-2013 06:37 pm (UTC)
the guy who runs my favorite restaraunt was on chopped and came in second place. he lost because he made pasta pinwheels or something and the pasta was slightly undercooked

HIS FOOD IS SO FUCKING AMAZING.
donnanoble 26th-Feb-2013 06:54 pm (UTC)
JOHNNY WEIR?!?!?!?!?!!
trinigren 26th-Feb-2013 06:54 pm (UTC)
I hope Nadia G. bombs out. But more than anything I want Scott Conant to win it all. And also for him to become an Iron Chef.
hollymarchosias 26th-Feb-2013 07:16 pm (UTC)
same with Nadia G. -- hate her show so much
shimmersea 27th-Feb-2013 09:39 am (UTC)

Christ in a sidecar if Elizabeth Falkner doesn't fucking win SOMETHING I will flail. She's always this >< close.
xgirldc 26th-Feb-2013 08:08 pm (UTC)
she is beyond amazing. she deserves it.
sexmeupscotty 26th-Feb-2013 07:26 pm (UTC)
I haaate Nadia G, she is so embarrassing.
xgirldc 26th-Feb-2013 08:07 pm (UTC)

I love Chopped! I'm way too excited for Richard Blais, Johnny Weir, and Joey Fatone
__substitute__ 26th-Feb-2013 09:13 pm (UTC)
i LOVE chopped, this is awesome news except i hate nadia g
foryoursake08 26th-Feb-2013 10:10 pm (UTC)
I love when they do Chopped All-Stars.

And I guess I'm the only one who likes Nadia.
faded_facade 26th-Feb-2013 10:13 pm (UTC)
Richard Blais? Joey Fatone? I'm really looking forward to episodes 2 and 4.
violue 26th-Feb-2013 10:14 pm (UTC)
UGH not Nadia G

I saw her on the Iron Chef America special last year and she was so damn grating.

But yayyy Chopped post!


I like the ~special~ competitions. I want TED to compete. They need an episode with Ted Allen, Alton Brown, Creepy Chef Ron, and idk another competition host. I was going to say the dude from Cupcake Wars but apparently he isn't a chef at all.
wheeler 27th-Feb-2013 01:37 am (UTC)
CHUCK HUGHES! The Gambit of chefs!
shimmersea 27th-Feb-2013 09:40 am (UTC)
YEEEESSSS, SCOTT FTW

Props to Iron Princess Alex coming back but I want Scott to win. :(

Not sure about these celebs tho. The celeb winner who makes it to the final round is going to be severely disadvantaged...
