I first anticipated from the previous week that we would see Julia returning.

Seriously, are any of these guys likable? They're all attitude, no ability. Even G-Ram knows that they all suck.

And someone really needs to smack the shit out of Corey.

All I gotta say is that Corey is one delusional, egotistical, condesceding beeotch!!! Hate her!!

Great recap! :)

Great recap.

I can't believe that dumbass Matt made it through yet ANOTHER round. His face is enough to keep me in a perpetual pissed off state every single week. He's a worthless sack of skin and the women are really in for a helluva horrible time with that clown cringing in their kitchen.

It's a pity about Shayna. She was finally starting to make herself known on the show, only to be cast off...meanwhile, Rosann and her "cooking skills" have made it yet another week. What with RamJam cooking for her and all?!?! I would've packed her bags for her myself!

Fabulous recap, as usual :).

On to the evil:

Corey is annoying and thikns she's hot shit. Toilet Brush is GAY that's why he was all Asian beaver face (anyone else think that was really inappropriate, that would be like me, a black chick, saying "No massa, I dun wanna get in the hot tub with ya") and refusing to get in the tub with her.

The Beneral is irritating but at least they actually cook stuff and get it out on time-ish. They actually seem to want to WIN and know that it takes moving your ass to do it.

Shayna is slow, yes, but it has nothing to do with her being overweight (jackass Corey). You could be 500 pounds and chop vegetables quickly. Mario Batali (my absolute fav Iron Chef and overall sweetheart) is a big fella but he gets around the kitchen on Iron Chef. Shut your face, Corey. I bet she's just pissed because she couldn't get into modeling or some other dumb shit.

Petrozza is just here because he never really screws up worse than anyone else.

Rosann can't cook meat properly. I don't know what she was doing but omg. I can cook steak better than her and I've literally burned a pan trying to boil water (don't ask).

Christina: Shut your ugly, Whoface. She looks like a child and acts like a child. "I can read a book"???? So can a four year old, dumbass.

Cringing Matt...og Cringing Matt. I can't even look at his face without wanting to punch him. He was definitely the fat kid at school. He has a very soft voice that doesn't carry so everything he says sounds like he's about to cry when he says it. He's the uncool person who thinks he's cool. He is delusional. He thinks the Beneral is the reason the blue team was going down? Now he's gonna eff up the chicks with his very special brand of dumbassery.

By the way, he totally looks like Jake Gyllenhall's ugly uncle (and I totally imdb'd him to find out just how you spell his last name).

Ok, two things here...first, what happend to the chef that was returning?

Second, when Fransico was introducing the queen of the day, did anyone else think it was going to be J. Phillipe?

:)

Just an observation, but doesn't Matt look like he's smelling a fart each time we see him cringing (which is each time we see him)? That guy is a real douche.

Corey sure likes herself, doesn't she? :) Pathetic.

I was REALLY hoping for a Julia return, myself. Bring her back, G-Ram! She can win this whole thing!!

So many rants, I don't know where to begin, but here goes.

First, the party planner. Wasn't that the same actor who was the wedding planner last year? And how many times does Ramsey say "for the first time ever in Hell's Kitchen...."

Matt: Not since Josh last season have I seen someone so incompetent survive week after week. He is horrible. Two weeks in a row he sends out raw food. He can't last long.

Mystery chef: If Matt is the mystery chef joining the girls, why did FOX show a promo showing someone behind a closed door about to enter the kitchen?

Elimination: How bad is this group? The two people that stayed served raw fish and raw steak. One week, I'd like Ramsey to send multiple chefs packing. Of course, FOX couldn't stretch this out to Labor Day that way.

Okay, I could have sworn I saw a wedding ring on Matt's hand.

If he is married, then whoever this woman is, my god, you are my hero. If I had to look at that cringing face day in and day out, I would probably lose it.

Cringing Matt = Human form of Burt from Sesame Street

Great recap! Where DID they get this group of "chefs" this year? Seriously, I'm not sure I'd let a one of them work in my kitchen, much less run it! Makes me feel less bad for them when GR hollers at them.

Corey and the Beneral have seriously cocky attitudes without a whole lot to show for it, other than being less incompetent than the competition which is an extremely low bar! And don't even get me started on the Amazing Cringer himself!

And sorry to say, but the "Sexy Men of Hell's Kitchen" calendar might have to lose a few months. Or 12. "Sexy Men of Top Chef" would be a lot easier to publish...

Sorry, but this is driving me crazy and I've seen it more than once here.

The phrase is "take the REINS." As in reins on a horse's bridle, to control the animal.

Reigns = what a King or Queen does over subjects (rules).

Reins = Straps of leather that control a 1200-pound prey animal that can run fast, and kick and bite hard. "Dangerous at both ends and uncomfortable in the middle" - David Niven

Unless they just alternate months between Gordon and Jean-Philippe. God, I love that Belgian waffle!

Thankyou, killbondnow, for your astute correction.

Seriously.

I cannot be the only trainspotter on this site (not something I am particularly proud of, as "nobody likes a know-it-all" echoes in my ears).

I frequently have to quell the urge to correct people, but then I often also wonder, surely people rather get something right than continue to display their ignorance?

MandaMo, I can't remember if I said this previously, but you officially ROCK! Hilarious recap, doll!
