I might. I haven't been watching any tv either except for the occasional movie. I'll definitely be watching Idol when that starts next week, although I don't enjoy the auditions as much watching the top 12 perform.

I recorded, then stayed up late watching both shows last night. I was glad at the outcome, but I would have been glad with any of them winning. I had never heard of Hubert before this show, but have always liked both Chiarello and Bayless. I was a bit disappointed at Chiarello in the episode where the previous contestants from Top Chef came back to be sous chefs. But I wonder how much of the arrogance they showed him having was the editing. As for the finale, I loved the challenge they had to do. What a brilliant idea. I bet it was fun for the chefs to do, too. It's too early to tell about the new Top Chefs. I just hope they keep the bickering to a minimum. One of the things I loved about Top Chef Masters was there was little to no bickering, and everyone enjoyed each other's company. Sally

Me again. I especially like this show because it so closely resembles my family. I had 4 brothers and 4 sisters. During the Depression we lived in Texas, and the meat on our table at meal time was whatever my DF and DBs had shot, or caught in the river, including frogs. Duck calls and fishing lures were toys for us. I still remember my DF's voice saying Grace at the table. None of the men in my family had long hair or beards, but my grandfathers did. Styles change. The Robertsons have chosen to stay with that Redneck style. The present state of TV is degrading and I feel sorry for the young people, to whom TV seems to depict normal people living normal lives, and that will become the life they choose to follow. Killing animals for food is not to be compared with just killing animals for trophies. Sue

@blfenton...The guy on the beach hit his head diving under a crawl through, in a competition. He didn't drink enough water, got dehydrated, later looked like he might have a more serious injury & was removed from the game, taken to a hospital. The guy climbing the rocks: He got scraped up pretty bad. His foot is wrapped to staunch the bleeding. Hi hands are scrapped....and he dislocated his shoulder....snapped it back into place....and wears a sling on that arm.
