This is about the entertainment, not about cooking. This is about a train wreck - panic attacks - cooperation, not about running a kitchen and being a chef. To find a chef, go to Bravo's Top Chef. To laugh, watch Hell's Kitchen. 'squeek'

I set my dvr and it cut out before the end of the show. Someone PLEASE tell me who was nominated to be eliminated and why she picked her and who he cut from the show. Thank you.

I swear Scott said we're all out of chicken, wellingtons and lettuce, how can that be we haven't served anything yet! It looked like they were cutting up beef wellington as well.
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | Melissa nominated Joanne and Tiffany, with good reason I thought. Tiffany went. |

I have to say I have never seen a weepier bunch of people on TV! I felt very bad for Aaron though. I don't think he is cut out for the pressure. Had to laugh at Vinnie thinking GR was intimated by him, get a grip.

My favorite part was the opening with GR sitting at a table saying there will be no more yelling, no cursing, etc etc. Then says, oh who am I kidding.

I laughed at all the snobby acting people sneering because she cooks at a Waffle House?!? But they can't cook an EGG? And won't let her try? I do give props to the woman who nominated for not putting up Julia, even though all the ones acting catty pushed that choice. It "looks" like Vinnie gets gross next week

No, they aren't. "Fainting girl" is from around here, has two degrees, one in Food Production and one in Pastry Arts, teaches at the local community college, and is a well-respected pastry arts chef at a local restaurant. At least she seemed to keep out of all the drama on the girls' team. http://www.timesleader.com/news/20070531_31hells_kitchen_ART.html

I thought it was typical human nature when the girls were commenting on how Julia 'HAD to go' because she had no experience except Waffle House I wondered if the girls were deliberately trying to Throw it just to try and get rid of Julia. Glad to see it backfired. I am none too happy with the cast. It seems like all the stereotypical slice of people have been chosen, including the 'fat guy' and the 'disabled person'. I'd love to know how Aaron passed his psychological screen! he is breaking down horribly, I felt so bad for him. Then I thought Brilliant!! what a great way to make the other guys feel like he isnt a threat. This show is about being nominated. If you dont appear as a threat there is less of a chance. I wont be surprised if he pulls it together and ends up final three. However, he also may have a heart attack or seizure due to high blood pressure. I really felt concern at his blanched face which can be Bright red at other times. It just looked unhealthy.

I love this show. And yet again, I'm left wondering if any of them watched one of the previous seasons. They seemed so unprepared for Gordon's tirades and the chaos that is the kitchen. Always amazes me that folks go on an existing 'reality' show without ever having seen the previous seasons.

"I do give props to the woman who nominated for not putting up Julia, even though all the catty ones pushed that choice." If she did nominate Julia it could of been her death. I know in the past ramsey has sent nominations back in the line and called the true ones up. I think having someone do the nominations tells him if they could seperate friendship from work relationships. The last thing he wants is someone who would not fire someone who deserves to be fired due to a friendship.

Yeah, I agree Free. I was annoyed by the Julia situation. If she hadn't stepped in and made the eggs, they wouldn't have gotten even an appetizer out. As much as the others may think she is beneath them, they should have recognized that. It was infuriating when the one woman was interviewing about Julia crying...saying it meant she wasn't a team player and was making it all about herself. She was crying because she WAS a team player, knew she could make an egg and nobody would give her a chance. Maybe her culinary experience/education isn't on par with theirs, but none of them came off as exactly impressive. I was really glad to see Melissa nominate Tiffany and Joanna and NOT nominate the one who bailed them out. Maybe Melissa has seen this show before? Ramsey certainly isn't going to boot someone just because she "cooks at Waffle House" and nominating her for that reason would NOT have been good for her.

This show is like a train wreck... you just can't look away!!! But... again, I think it's too formulaic. I hope they do more than just redesign the restaurant. The voiceover saying that Gordon's dream of grand re-opening wasn't gonna be realized? Yeah, hello. That was a dream that had no basis in reality. Like, it's guaranteed he's gonna shut the kitchen down before everyone is served. I really like Melissa, and how she stood up to the <57> Girls (by not nominating Julia for elimination). I really felt bad for Julia, too, having to work in that environment. So what if she works in a waffle house? How is that worse than being a line cook or a side order cook? Personally, I'd have preferred to see Joanne go, though. I think that one is gonna be trouble. Of course, that's why she's still there (that danged "good tv" thing). Seems like they really cast "personalities" this year. Although they all do have props in the kitchen, still... Train wreck. Yet, can't look away!

We didn't catch on to this show until midway through last season so have no way to judge this starting group compared to last year's. Our impression is that this is not an as experienced group. Right now there don't appear to be as many "food" stars....Melissa and Eddie seem to have the most potential but that's after only one show.

I was glad to see Tiffany go because she is the one that was being so rude to Julia by not letting her cook the dang eggs.
