I know as per usual I am hooked........not a huge lot going on in my life..


but to watch these young sisters is quite something....they seem to have so much knowledge its amazing.. I am not sure who I want to win.. I JUST KNOW WHO I DONT WANT TO WIN...


as per usual....

well doesnt look as if anyone is.. thats ok.. I need to whinge once again about channel 7

the advertising they do is all bad they show pieces that give you the impression a coupel is doing it tough Like Carmen and Lauren the resident bitch pair.....and then they do so well they come second Pete heaps 10s on them....not a good look channel 7....there is no way this pair can win.. but they have extreme bad days [mostly] and the extreme good days....[apparently]
channel 7 are playing a game and I dont like it....stop treating us like idiots.. .. we know you have kept them on the show for ratings.. thats hardly  fair...

and now it appears Manu humiliates a very young man on TV......whats fair about that?..

No sorry cods, I dont do those shows, they are too staged with all this faked drama.

My son the chef cant bear them he says I could feed a whole restaurant in the time these twits take to feed half a dozen one dish.

I presume he is a professional.... in which case its to be expected.....on the other hand I often think chefs like Colin expect an awful lot from amateurs..

on the whole I dont think they do too badly.....as they get almost no advice....at least Masterchef tries to teach them something..

I enjoy these shows... get cranky with them but a few people have made a living out of them so it cant all be bad.....

is anyone watching MKR

I have actually started watching it over the last couple of weeks, although I'm not too sure why.

I've given it a miss this time around.

Upside down mouth won't Win, I was impressed by Laurens dishes.

I think it has something to do with her dress ;D

Apparently the young bloke tells off momma tonight.

Yeah Lauren and Upside down mouth are on the bottom of my list but I like Lauren better than upside down mouth.

Manu has gone down on my list of favs as well.. seeing him take a dig at that young man....in public..

what happens in the kitchen should stay in the kitchen.......how humiliating.......

I would like the brother and sister to win....I think... they are very good for two kids...

and I think all that BS about hairs was a scam.. shes such a bitch she will do anything to get noticed...I reckon if that happens then the . evidence the HAIR should be presented to the judges at the end......3 times ... no way...

It surprises me that otherwise intelligent people are fooled by these shows.

Then again, I used to love World Championship Wrestling when I was a kid.

(Remember "Haystacks" Calhoun?)

I would like Anna and Jordan (mother and son) to win or, failing that, Mitch and Laura (brother and sister).

Can't stand Carmine and Lauren or Gianni and Zana.  Have you seen the Gogglebox commercial where they make fun of Zana's runaway mouth?    ;D

I have changed my mind about the young brother and sister.  Mitch is fine but his sister, Laura, has become sour and a very bad sport because they had a mishap in the kitchen.  I know she is young but she shouldn't be there if she can't control her sour grapes.

I like the two asian sisters but would still like to see Anna and Jordan win.

I couldn't be bothered watching it tonight.

Yes I was into that a bit as well as the boxing in the early 1970s

Killer Kowalski is a name I recall

I also remember Hector Thompson in the boxing

Funning thing is now I cant stand any of that stuff with violence in it!

Old upside down mouth ;D ;D ;D

I like the way she tries to make out she is so refined by having to tell everyone FFS.

Refined people just act refined, they have no need to point it out as though they want everyone to believe them.

To me she comes across as a DOLT. That little ferret she is paired up with must be desperate. Just look at that mouth ;D ;D ;D , its upside down ;D ;D ;D .

xyes me too I was very disappointed in Laura what is it about the females they cant help themselves c an they...I had high hopes for them as I thought so young and so bright.. but there it goes we are stuck with the two bitches from hell...must be an italian thing....

I too am going for the sisters they really havent put a foot wrong....and I like them.. which helps mother and son are good but he is too much...but they deserve to be there....... I am sure the editing is very contrived but they would complain loud and long if they thought they were being singles out........

can you imagine them sitting at home squirming as they watch themselves.... ;D ;D ;D

they cant deny anything can they... Laren calling everyone" peeps"... ::) ::)

sadly YES.... her and Lauren as phony as two dollar bills....

anyway shes gone done by the sisters tonight ..who I thin k are going to take it out.....unless something really goes wrong for them......

I trust you will be there Monday and Tuesday nights red glued to your TV... its the big finale..I think the sisters are going to go places they seem to please everyone...win or lose..

Go Anna and Jordan   :)

bah humbug... my least fav couple into the grand final....

what a blow.....this pair  have cooked almost the same style of thing all the way through...

never mind.... if they win I will spew.

Apparently the station that airs MKR cut short the last post at a sporting event on the weekend, so that they could cut to an add for MKR.

Dear oh dear.

oh shock horror.... I am a bit over seeing these ads that are not really ads.. they just pop up in every program at the bottom of the screen shot...telling us something is coming in 10 days or more...

rude rude rude...at least when the ad break comes on.. we can turn it off.. but this blatant advertising whilst the show is in progress is an invasion...and should not be allowed..

Carmine and Lauren?

Anna and Jordan were the mother and son and really nice and, I think, the only team to give a 10 to their competitors.  I am sorry they lost to the bitch Lauren.

Oh well,  anyone but Lauren to win so I will be rooting for the sisters.

I will give Carmine and Lauren credit they did do a great job on the day......I do think the runners up deserve something....it shouldnt all go to the winner.....

I am not so sure Jordan would have survived  those 5 courses......a couple more years and he will be right...

oh well here comes Masterchef I am so glad they are not competing against each other this year......

I am going to watch Home Rules as well...

I know I cant help myself.

Well I succumbed to your urgings cods and watched it.

The scoring wasnt even close so they were clear winners.

it wasnt bad for a final....but I thought they did well in the end........to be honest I thought the girls who put chillies in every dish bar the dessert....not a lot of variety and all Indonesian...I would have though  a cooking show they should show they can cook a variety of foods... just sayin...

they did deserve to win thats for sure and they will go far I would imagine....... but I could see a big difference in the other pair from when they started..
