Jimmer - Bobby Flay's my favorite, too (I've actually always been a fan). I don't really like either of the other judges...they just come off as TOO picky(like the way no food/drink ever seems to be the right temperature for David). Also, Bobby Flay's a chef so it at least makes sense that he's there to judge food, but I don't really get what qualifies Candice to be a judge for this type of competition (but I could just be anti-Bushnell). I got the idea from the promo that they were going to shuffle the teams next week, not just even them up.

I agree with all the comments about how the contestants are judged. It's just absurd.

Jan, that really would be a great idea. Then I think all the contestants would all feel more "positive" about stuff. Cuz I think any CB that gets put with D/K is going to feel like they are on a sinking ship...

Love this show! One note.. Tim is from our area and has been vocal about fund raising for his old high school which was badly damaged during the hurricane. (Charley) I was really hoping he'd stay on the show. (Oh well) My personal fav for those left is Darlene (I think she's the fabric lady) She has a sense of humor and I love her fashion sense. The others tend to overlook her, though.

The promos indicated that the teams would be shuffled a bit (as in the twosome will no longer be such). I'm thinking it's about time to get over the team thing (since even if they even up the teams somewhat next week, if the short team with only three members loses, then yet again one person decides who leaves). I'm less and less impressed with this show each week. And I'm less and less impressed with the contestants. I don't see any of 'em as being all that. They seem to have a single speciality, and not really be all-around home style divas. (Oh, and don't even get me started on Mitch and his attitude. Good lord, could his ego GET any bigger???) I was sorry to see Denise go. I think she really had a lot of potential, more so than the other two on her team. Who would spend four hours on scraping a door down, when there was so much else to do? Not just that, but TWO of 'em working on the doors. And what's her name (the blonde?) acts like a mean little (rhymes with witch), in my opinion. You KNEW who was gonna get voted off last night. Even when the Crafty Beavers tried to put in their two cents' worth (which I knew would backfire as soon as ego-man said he'd talk to what's her name who voted).

what is the prize in this contest anyway? is it their own show or host gig? Canadian HGTV is having a "design Superstar" contest .(They had one last year also) It is only a half hour show weekly but 10 contestants have to perform actions to show who could host a show. 1 is eliminated each week by three judges (NOT each other). The winner from last years show does have her own gig now, as co-host of Kitchen Equipped on HGTV. This HGTV version seems a lot more credible to me.

Jan, If I recall correctly, it is 6 gigs or appearances on the Early Show. Hmmm, I just looked it up and I all could find was this: The successful candidate will win an opportunity for a lifestyle-oriented television show and a publishing deal. That sure sounds vague, doesn't it?

I loved that fancy material that Darlene, the ornate sewing specialty person, made. But then she discarded it for that brownish weirdlooking box cover. I am glad that their team didnt lose cause I bet her box would have lost her the comp. second guessing your decision AFTER finishing the cloth is NOT GOOD. I hope her indecision doesnt cost her this game.

I agree Sunshyne. The first fabric was better. I think she probably had jitters about it. She seems to be less confident and that may hurt her chances. I still have my fingers crossed for her. Mitch's ego is something to watch..LOL

On the WP website, there is a sweepstakes to win a dinner party for you and up to 20 guests "planned and hosted by the winner of Wickedly Perfect." Of the remaining contestants, I think I'd rather have Darlene plan my party. That food she threw together last week at the B&B looked great, even if the judges did think it was "too much." If I win, I'll turn it into a TVCH dinner party! The first 20 people to accept the invite get to come!

Cool! Of course, that means y'all have to come to Colorado! The rules say the party is to be held "at the winner's home or at a location chosen by Sponsors, as near to the winner's home as reasonably possible." I know there's no way I could host 20 people in my house! So I guess the Sponsors better find a good place!

Whoo Hoo! 10 People accepting! Now I gotta win this thing! I probably should save a few spots for my sis/sil/other sis/bil and my Mom. So, looks like we still have five spots open! <wonders how many people would still want to come if it ends up with Mitch as the winner/host. Or the one who made that horrid pot pie! > Now, all of you who said you'd come to Colorado for this thing, come over to the Colorado Gathering thread and sign up! We're in the early planning stages of an official TVCH Gathering.
