Unfortunately I have seen a deterioration in the contestants in recent years. After all, this is a "reality show" competing with other reality shows for ratings. I believe some entries are just there to build up the drama of the show. I'm not going to name names but you can guess who they are
ReplyDeleteWhat I want to know, is why does it seem like none of these people have watched Hell's Kitchen before going on the show? I mean, HOW can you be surprised at the last challenge? "Oh, I was NOT expecting to have to do this". What?
DeleteAs far as I know tv shows are made for rating I know it won't be be a boring tv show on air and no one watch them. Apparently you know about "some entry" just say names instead of talk like a low life coward.
DeleteNedra was only kept for the drama. Should have been gone long ago.
ReplyDeleteIt was quite annoying that Cyndi would always act like as if she was trying to act something but she would over act
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why Mary, the runner up, wasn't offered the job when Ja'nel was disqualified for drug use.
ReplyDeleteIt would make more sense to give Jon the job because he was actually the more consistent chef. In fact, he's the only one to get points in every challenge even though this is the worst blue team in Hell's kitchen.
Deletemary was the only one of the contestants to drive the food when needed
