Kitchen Bitches

Wow. We watched the second episode of Hell's Kitchen last night. Where do they get these people from? Oh. My. God. Seriously. I've renamed the show, Kitchen Bitches since the contestants are all a bunch of bitches. I hated this show when I first saw it. Now, I've grown to love it. Come on, on how many shows can you hear "fuck" like 101 times in 42 minutes of tv? Gordan is hilarious. "Get out!" Throwing chicken up against the wall, sticking his finger in raw food and screaming. I find myself incredulous at what some of these people do.

The contestants are a nightmare. Jason is a chauvanistic fucker who I'd like to strangle. He chain smokes like crazy, as many of them do. Which I find disgusting. Especially since they never show the people actually washing their hands. Sharon (who was booted last night) looked like an alien from the movie, V. Remember that movie? We actually have it on DVD. She was just bizarre. Jen is a loudmouth who needs a serious ass kickin' with that attitude. Jeez loo-eez people. They complain constantly about each other and how no one communicates, but of course they are not part of the problem. No one seems to be working together.

Can't wait to see what happens next week.

Jaw Dropping

Let me start by saying I have never watched The Bachelor before, honestly. I find the premise of this show to be ridiculus. However, after seeing the preview of an episode the other week where a woman was not given a rose and she's hyperventilating and freaking out...I had to tune in. At first, I felt horribly guilty at finding this woman's misery amusing. Then I thought about how she (and all these others) signed up for this show, knowing that they would be competing with 30 other women for one man. Who gets to enjoy the fruits of all those women.

And a guilty vice was born, I had to watch the rest of the season (like 4 episodes).

The situation with this particular woman was so weird. He kept telling her that he really liked her as a friend, and she didn't pick up on that clue. Over and over. She'd reply that the best lovers start out as friends, blah, blah, blah. He didn't give her a rose that episode and she leaves sobbing and she can't breathe. He has to come out to console her. I found it ludicrous.

Hello, the "Bachelor" hasn't stayed with the woman he picked in all the seasons. The only couple that is together is Trista and Ryan from the Bachelorette. (By the way, Trista just gave birth to their son a few months ago and suffered from HELLP Syndrome). What is it that makes these women believe they will be the one that stays together. I know, I know. The hope of finding your true love, and so on. But, finding it on TV? Yes, it can happen. But really, how good are the odds?

I also didn't really care for this Bachelor too much, but his decision redeemed him. He came off as this loveable, funny, kind guy, but I found him kinda dumb. That was at first glance. I find it refreshing that he didn't choose anyone since he isn't "in love" with someone. And didn't do the whole, "let's take the time to get to know one another better, but still take the ring" route.

There is talk already that he does propose on the aftershow. That there is some big shocker. We'll just have to watch and see.

I so cannot watch next season.
