 Top Chef Season 2
It doesn't start until the 18th, but I thought this was one of the best reality shows on TV. I know a bunch of people on this board are foodies, so I can't recommend this show highly enough... no screaming chefs trying to make contestants feel bad, just a bunch of highly qualified chefs competing against one another.

Nope... in fact Season 1 was done in San Francisco - I hope they kept it that way with Season 2

its by the producers of project runway, but with food-so think crazy challenges that are unexpected (last season, they had to make an entire meal out of gas station food/ make a meal kids would like/ make something microwavable for moms etc)
so its kind of like taking fancy chefs out of their comfort zones and seeing what they REALLY can do given a weird challenge. Some are pretty amazing!
i am sad there will be no steven to hate this season though!
ps: Chunk Le Funk!

not as good as Project Runway either, but I still thought it was alright.

Steven really redeemed himself at the reunion show in my eyes... Tiffany, however, just made herself look about 10 times worse. She's such an outright liar, and I can't believe she tried to take credit for Dave's desserts in the finals...

I hated how they all acted holier than thou about some of the stuff, like the gas station challenge or the one where they had to cook for the kids.

So then it's sort of like Navy Seal training for the Chefs. Thinking innovative and out of the box with the rawest materials to get the job done. gotta watch.
