Can't wait for this season.  Haven't missed one season yet.  I haven't been watching LCK on line though.  Anyone?  I know Jen Carroll is there and I can't stand her.

@SWEET I haven't watched it yet, ugh, she's back again?

@CeltricCrafter, she's back on LCK but heard she lost so probably not coming back.

My Tivo messed up. Showed it was recorded but when I went to watch the episode

it was not there. Very odd. Luckily it was available On Demand. 

I liked the the first episode. The majority of the chefs seem talented and nice. 

There were a lot of dishes I wish I could have tried. Both Chef Joes dishes and the soul food Amish Chef. 

I felt bad for the first eliminated Chef. Potato’s did her in. 

This may seem shallow but the one chef with the spotted glasses was 

distracting. All I could focus on was her glasses. 

Looking forward to to next weeks episode.

Both Melissa (the one eliminated) and Carrie were both on the bottom for the quickfire and elimination.  Melissa couldn't get those darn potatoes cooked in any of them. 

ITA re the woman in the glasses.  I'm also tired of chefs having tatts on most every cooking show I watch.  Those are distracting to me too.

I have to say also Long scraggly beards. One of the chefs had a scraggly beard and I 

kept thinking what if his beard hair gets in the food.

I thought Thursday's episode was a good one.

I liked the guest judges for the elimination round. They have a beautiful farm.

Alot of the food looked amazing.

I am ok with who was sent packing. I will not post in case people have not watched yet.

The chef did not seem to know what they were doing in the kitchen.

The two others could have been eliminated also. Their dish looked terrible.

I thought the right chef was sent packing too, but there were several good options to send home. The makeup the cast-off chef wore in LCK was 'interesting' as was the outcome of LCK. I felt sorry for poor Tom in LCK having to eat tarantula four times over. I thought he was very wise to grab a beer (or two, heck maybe a whole six pack or two) beforehand. Tarantula? Really? Oddly, enough my local stores don't sell tarantula. From what I gathered, it won't make the menu on any of the restaurants the LCK chefs work from either. No one seemed overly impressed by the flavor, texture, or anything else of the tartantula.

Thank you @gardenman for the info on LCK I will watch that today.

Sounds quite interesting.

I like Tom I think he is a great host. I hope to have the chance one day to eat at one of his restaurants.

Just don't order the Tarantula.

There is nothing that annoys me more than people who get all weepy leaving their family and then they waste a spot on the show as they don't want to continue.
