    Luster off the new season already?

    So much for Eve being the favorite.

    There are some crabby bitter people in this cast.

    She doesn't want to cook for a wedding party because the law doesn't allow her to get married?

    Last night was a little better... I actually liked the quickfire, where a dice roll determined the number of ingredients you could use.

    The militant lesbian angle was overplayed. Say it once, include it once in the editing... but no need for overkill.

    And although I wouldn't make or eat it, I liked that they included how to make the winning quickfire recipe... That's a new touch.

    wake me up when the crappy ones get eliminated and the real show begins.
    i count six or seven people who will all be the next ones to go.
    the only one i'm having some doubts about is ripert's girl -- jennifer.
    it is top chef, not top ceviche.
    plus it was stupid to complain about boys vs. girls, would it have been better to have heteros vs. homos?

    I wonder if we'll have a repeat from her next week, since they'll be cooking for the military.

    Ceviche and scallops seem to be made every episode. I figure if somebody makes ceviche scallops or scallops ceviche, they'll automatically win.

    And foam. These people love foam.

    About the marriage/militant gay theme....Bravo has a substantially gay audience.

    Yep, 21 is right. Look at Andy Cohen and "Watch What Happens Live." He's openly gay. I didn't know the Jeff Lewis guy from "Flipping Out" was gay.

    I'm not loving Top Chef too much right now. Too preductable. Eve, who was kicked off last night, was terrible. No personality and cooked like sh*t.

    Jennifer cooks too much seafood. But then again, she works for Eric Ripert, so that's really no surprise. Let's see her cook some red meat.

    I like Kevin and the brothers.

    Oh, I think everybody knows the Bravo audience skews that way.

    But that Top Chef contestant making such a big deal out of cooking for a bachelor party was stupid. You're a chef. STFU and cook.

    The complaints about the marriage and men-vs.-women elements were beyond silly.
