Where the gently caress are you from that you've never heard the term Potluck before? edit: Travis and Patty are hosed. They better hope that Nicholas is back at the house dying.

So why would you let the dude who has been sick and almost didn't make it to the competition run your team?

That quickfire was bullshit and the winner was just luck of the draw. Brian even knew it with his 'uh, well thanks everyone who cooked this' remark. Glad patty is gone.

They tricked me with thinking the fish was going to be bad after Travis didn't actually smell it before buying it. It wasn't cooked well but it seemed ok as a product.

I gained some small respect for Travis for ignoring the demands of Tsar Nicholas. I really enjoyed the episode. Kermit came across as a human being unlike Lea Michele and the musical chairs was contained to the quickfire.

I am not into jazz and had no idea (still really do not) who he is, but I agree on all fronts he came off as not only a human being but a likable guy who loves food. The judges appeared to really like the setting and dinner as well.

Kermit's appearance made this episode feel especially like some kind of Treme crossover. If you're not watching Treme, you should; it's even got a chef story arc that features Tom, Emeril, Eric Ripert, and David Chang. I'm pretty sure Bourdain is either a writer or consultant for those scenes.

Ahaha did anyone hear Nina tell someone to "suck a dick" during the teaser for next week? Can you say that on TV now, or did someone miss an edit?

According to Patton oswalt, if she meant in her heart; "suck a jerk", it would be fine for cable. However if she was thinking at the time of the anatomical incarnation of a dick, it would not be allowed.

Dr. John should judge every quick fire. That was awesome. If you don't know how to bring the hip tang, you're probably a bad chef.

That was a great episode, and the season felt like it was kinda twiddling its thumbs until just now. There are still a couple more hangers-on that need to go, but I'm really looking forward to the insane quality of the second half if they had a hard time deciding on a dish to send home with eleven chefs left.

Every time she talks about what she's thinking about doing, what she is doing, or what she did, it's always followed up with some iteration of "but I'm really bad at pretty much life." It becomes pretty tiresome to hear, but I hope she can get over whatever it is creating her crushing sense of self-doubt for her own sake. Like -- you're a pretty great chef: you're on TC, you won a challenge, and you haven't gone home yet! Have faith in yourself.

To be fair, her roommate won last season, while she went out on during the prelims. That would mess with anyone.

Top 4 feels like Nina, Shirley, Justin, Carrie. I think Stephanie is a potential dark horse if she can quit hating on herself so hard. Louis was talked up a lot but was pretty unimpressive and I thought he'd be gone earlier than he was, but who knows, maybe he'll go gangbusters on Last Chance Kitchen.
