Clipgasm: Sassbot and Manboobs Edition

Those of you who enjoy The Next Food Network Star were in for quite the treat Sunday night when the three remaining finalists had to do a live demo with the mistress of all robotic culinary arts: Miss Julie Chen. Surprisingly enough, the Chenbot was fairly subdued for the first part of this segment, but when plus-sized baker Reggie Southerland waltzed onto the scene, Julie lit up. I'm fairly sure this was the most she's ever used the word "sassy." Nevertheless, by the end of the clip, it's quite apparent which chef the Chenbot wants to go all the way...

Gotta love some stiff and sassy Chenbot. If only every show would stick in a Chenbot moment.

Reggie usually has me laughing till I cry, but last night I just wanted to strangle him. It's never a good idea to call your viewers 'girls' then turn around and call that raw chicken 'girl' too.

And will someone PLEASE tell Paul Deen to stop caressing the men like they were big mounds of butter!

I always knew that Julie Chen was sassy, it's just nice to see it play out once in a while... ok... im good until July :)

Gee, and who woulda thunk that Reggie is a HUGE fan of Paula Deen and her healthy food?! The way he dug into her disgusting looking tomato tart (with a bunch of mayo and cheese) grossed me out.

My wife said, "I just can't stop staring at his boobs."

Please America, we don't want to mix an obese man with cooking shows. For real, yo.

Reggie's boobs are bigger than mine. I can't decide if I would watch a show by him on Food Network like I would drive slowly by a bad car accident, or shriek in horror if he appeared on a half hour show.

So the choice of the show host/chef which will never be seen again is Mandisa's brother or the Colin Farrell wannabe?

And if Reggie wins will he wear tight tops like Sandra Lee wears? Or is he trying to be Meatloaf from Fight Club?

It's obvious to me that the judges want Reggie to win. Carissa was much better than Guy in the segment with Julie, but yet they eliminated Carrissa. They know that Carissa would win hands down over Reggie with the viewers voting. Reggie stands a better chance against Guy. That's my theory and I'm sticking with it. Can't stand Reggie or Paula.

I looked at the opinion poll on the Food Network website, and at the time of the final 4, Guy was the one most people thought should make final 2. So if (at the time of filming) the producers picked Guy for final 2 thinking he'd be easier competition for Reggie, they may have been wrong. Carissa wasn't that popular in the poll. She grates on my nerves and I didn't think many of her dishes looked like things I'd want to make at home. I'm sure others felt that way about her, too. Guy can be annoying, but his food usually looks good and like something that might be worth trying. I think he and Reggie are pretty evenly matched in that regard.

I'm a big fan of guy. I just think Reggie tries too hard and I just get embarrassed for him. I don't know what he would bring differently to the Food Network. His concept is Southern food city style but it seems like the same stuff Paula does only not as good. Although I think his boobs are bigger than Paula's.

that's some serious boobage..

possibl he was twice as heavy and that chest remained after loing weight..

if he wins maybe he'll do a nip and tuck.

I was getting slightly aroused watching Paula get closer and closer to second base.

I liked this show more than I should have. Reggie was hilarious when his nerves weren't shredded, and he seems a sweeheart. But Guy's show would probably be more interesting. Toss up. But let's go back to #9 for moment...Carissa?! I'm gonna hazard a guess that the condescending French "accent" and hyper verbal spewage made most people want to throw their remotes at the TV, just like I did.
