The edit looks like a Bonnie win--which makes me think that's a red herring and Rock will actually win. What's up with Julia? I lost a lot of respect for her last night--boo hooing about not being in the finals. Suck it up wafflehouse girl!

I was disappointed to know that Rock doesn't have great ideas on how to decorate and furnish a restaurant. One thing people will pay for is ambience, even if the food is mediocre. I hate hard wood or tile in a restaurant because it makes things loud. On this point only I think Bonnie's side will be inferior. Bonnie has a feel for color and style which I hope will work well. Rock's side seems, well, drab and unexciting. It was a chore for him and one felt he was floundering. I was also hoping for some more interesting signature dishes. Linguine with lobster and the fried chicken and crab cake? I expected something more exciting than what I might find at the Maccaroni Grill. If nothing else, I would have recreated the dish Jen made when the three mothers chose her dish last week. if they liked it, chances are others will too. I am looking forward to seeing how cohesive the menus are for each person. Personally I would make the dishes very simple with very few ingredients, but make the presentation stunning and the names appetizing. I think that is what will make or break the service. Lastly, I still think Josh and Vinnie are bad news.

I didn't watch the middle, but I watched the beginning and end of the season.

The arrogance and self centeredness was a turn off. If not for the fact I started watching at the beginning I'd have probably stopped watching too ... well maybe not I like Ramsay. I think this, like all the reality shows on right now have lost a lot of viewers to BB. It's hard to keep interested in these slow moving contests when there is so much excitment on BB

I am more looking forward to "Kitchen Nightmares" this fall thant this show. I love the British version of the show and can't wait for our verison to start.
