Sam got cheated in Season 2, Tre got cheated in Season 3. Now SEVERAL chefs have gotten cheated due to LISA staying. WTF are they thinking keeping her around? She isn't good for ratings, she is foul tempered and just pisses off the masses by them keeping her sorry arse!
If she wins, I won't be watching this show anymore  Antonia is far superior to LISA. Lisa has been in the bottom 3 for several weeks in a row now.
What a crappy show tonight. Crappy crappy crappy.
No one got cheated. They ****ed up (or in Sam and Antonia's case, were good but not good enough). And as much as I'm sure a lot of you would like it, they can't send someone home because the fans don't like them. I think there are several contestants who were sent home that are far more talented than Lisa, but they all ****ed up at some point while she always did just enough to get by.
It's been evident that Blais and Stephanie were the most talented chefs from early on. It was always going to come down to them so what does it matter who gets third place?

I agree that Sam, Antonia, and the other chefs who got sent home messed up, but HOW BAD did they mess up? An example would be Dale and Lisa. Dale WON five times and Lisa was at the losing table FIVE times, yet she moved on. Spike was at the losing take SEVEN times and beat out Dale. Come on.
I don't even care for Antonia, but there's without question she has provided better food than Lisa. In the end I believe Richard will win. Stephanie is good but she's not forward enough - it seems - to be a Top Chef.

Anyone who effed up RICE TWO WEEKS IN A ROW should NEVER make it to the finals. And let's not forget her parade of under-seasoned food that she thought would be "too spicy". TRAVESTY!
Interesting article though...

They are about to announce the winner. If it's Lisa I will be SOOO ticked off. She basically got a D+ throughout the season and made it because someone else got a F ONCE. Give me a break.
I think Richard or Stephanie could win...but I don't know. Lisa did cook well this final challenge. I really wonder how the judges are going to rank on this one. I think overall Richard would make a better chef out of the three. Lisa is too much of a hit or miss. Stephani is very good but doesn't seem to have that killer instinct.
Regardless, if Lisa wins Top Chef will have A LOT OF REALLY TICKED OFF viewers.

YAY!! I am satisfied with the decision! I was worried for a bit. I thought for sure the only person I did not want to win, would. If that person did, it was only for the last challenge, not the whole body of work.
Way to go Top Chef Winner!

Yes! I think they made the right decision. I would have liked to have seen Antonia perform in the finale just to see how she would do. It looked like everyone made some mistakes in the finale...everything looked very good, but there were some mistakes. Richard kind of surprised me with some of his mistakes. I think Antonia could have held her own in the finale. But, since she wasn't there, I'm happy with the decision.

Whew.....I was VERY relieved when they called Stephanie's name. I would never have watched the show again if they had given it to Lisa. She really didn't deserve to be there, but at least she did well in the finale. I can't believe Richard blew it, and he knew it, too. I really thought he would win, but I'm happy for Stephanie.

Finally got to sit down and watch it. Thank Goodness. When they started having the judges say "I have a preference" it sounded like there might be a lot of network influence to the final decision.
Richard definitely overthought things and could have used a sous chef. He nailed it right away, that his food is intricate and that takes time he did not have. We didn't even see the frozen tabasco and oyster in the final menu. I also think Richard more than anyone else has acted as a Top Chef (from what we have seen in the editing). He gave away his winning prize in the Wedding episode, he consistently improvised successfully when things did not go as planned, and he can admit when he screws up. He has shown the most quality character of all the chefs I think.

I agree Tazzer. I have a lot of respect for Richard Blaise and would definitely eat at one of his restaurants if I were ever in the Atlanta area.
On another note.....did you guys see the shirt Bravo is selling? Absolutely cracked me up!! LOL
