Bobby's Triple Threat

The concept is good, but the chefs going against the titans sometimes make better dishes, yet get less points. The random judges have their own preferences, of course. It'd be more interesting, if they changed the titans each season. Who reckoned these chefs to be the titans? Mei Lin beat the titans and won the belt in Guy Fieri's Tournament of Champions, so she's more of a titan than any of the titans. Food Network recycles these chefs, getting tired of the same faces. It'd be great to see new chefs enter the scene, which TOC is now trying to do. But, of course, not all chefs want to become TV personalities nor have the time.

Maybe watch if you're bored like I did? The premise is cheesy so I just skip past the intro and pageantry in the beginning. I like cooking comps and found it interesting to see what the chefs did with their ingredients.

The biggest problem is the way they judge the food. There is only 1 judge so it's totally up to their personal bias / preference if they like a dish. Some of the judges are a joke like the episode with Jose Garces (sp?) that everyone has rated so low and is complaining about. Some judges are ok. If they kept the judging blind the entire show, maybe it would be ok but they don't. They reveal the chefs after the first taste. Why?! Sometimes it doesn't matter much but sometimes it makes a huge difference. Like if there a Japanese chef v a "titan". When of the two dishes one is Japanese and one isn't, it's pretty darn clear who made what. I would maybe watch the next season if they fix the judging but after the last episode of season 2, I don't think I would stomach watching another chef getting beaten down by bad judging.

I like the concept and the fact that one chef has the chance for $25,000. But like another reviewer said, Bobby shouldn't be helping out his "titans" at all. It's not fair. And the fact that they have one chef judging the competitors means that you're at the mercy of this one judge's tastes. Two or even three judges would make it fair because you're not worried about one judge who may be picky or not impartial.

I also find Bobby's ingredients to be a little boring compared to his Beat Bobby Flay ingredients that he picks. These chefs are professionals. It would make sense to challenge them a bit more. Maybe the new season will be different.

There is no way in heck Brook's little taco thingy beat Jose Garces' pork meal last night. I will never watch that rigged show again. Her dish lacked finesse - it was plain, boring and simple. No effort. Jose played the game well! He knew she was way out of her wheelhouse. And who the heck was that judge? One of Bobby's girl friends?? She seemed almost fair with Votaggio's meal and somewhat fair with Tiffany's dish but when it came to Brook - it was so unfair!!! Even Brook knew she lost - lister to her comments. Wow!!!

Good riddance to that flaky show! Try harder Bobby!!! You are better than that.

I started off enjoying this show when lesser known chefs came to battle. It was believable and judging seemed fair. This season with the add of iron chefs has just become a joke. Chef Simon's episode was beyond insulting when it came to the judging and tonight's episode with Chef Jose was clearly fixed. With all the cooking shows I will be changing channels and finding something else. Really unfortunate as I love watching Michael and Tiffany cook.
