Day-to-Day Bull 7/6/08

The Next Food Network Star continues tonight. While I watch this show fairly regularly, I’m amazed that half of the starting group appears to have highly limited cooking talent (Note: this is not the only food show that falls into this category—Hell’s Kitchen “chefs” are also a joke. Top Chef, on the other hand, typically has at least 3-4 contestants that are impressive.).

Think we’re down to the final 5 Food Network Stars. Suspect that either Adam (can’t cook) or Aaron (can’t present) is next to go. My handicapping of the remaining three is as follows: “Pretty Boy” Shane whose acting is improving is the co-favorite with “Perky” Kelsey who I find kind of hot. Former “beauty queen” (on what planet?) Lisa is likely to leave after Adam and Aaron as she knows how to cook, but unless she can stop crying and gets a makeover, I think she’s doomed as well. My guess is that Pretty Boy prevails.
