Last night the Food Network Star gods smiled down upon the Twitter dreams and prayers and Matthew was finally sent home.
Yes I know people liked him, but there were also people who didn't.
I fall in the didn't category.
Don't get me wrong, he was passionate and could cook. He just wasn't someone I would want to watch. No harm, no foul. Just my personal taste.
Cory, however, as I totally suspected, came back to the show from Star Salvation.
Unless the final deal was totally botched he could out cook Amy & David easily. Not that they aren't good. He is just has the experience of cooking in a restaurant and playing with food all day long. He's creative with food on a level that most people who didn't go to culinary food aren't at.
So anyway, Matthew out, Cory in.
The final 3 were all given pilots with Guy. I hate that this is the direction it's gone. I'd much prefer to see them get their own show and do a demo down that route.
They were all super nervous by this point, but Guy did a great job helping calm them into a state of Pilot that wouldn't eliminate all three.
Rusty was at MaGee's pretending to be Guy. He did exactly what I would do and called it Maggie's. Familiarity breeds mispronunciation. He's been there a bunch and supposedly never said it right.
There's a place here I continually call the wrong name... Pouparts. I can't say it the way I should... Pooparts. I just can't say Poo in a restaurant name.
Cory was at a Mexican place. He too was nervous and then calmed by a call to his bestie by Guy.
Come to think of it I don't recall Jason getting to phone a friend.
Jason did his faux pilot at a French restaurant. He was told to not say honey so much.
I would have been more excited about this episode had they filmed a cooking show pilot. The new hosting pilot deal isn't my jam.
Anyone else suffer from sick of seeing people eat at restaurants?
