I hate ... "HATE" reality TV - can't stand big brother, can stand survivor - lowest common denominator TV ... IQ draining bilge... you get the idea. I had heard nothing about Top Chef at all, but I'd gotten season 2 after a glowing @conoro recommendation. I though it was just like a cook off, but when I started to watch my heart sank. It initially seemed to me, like it was shaping up to be MTV's "the real world" meets masterchef. But I gave it a few episodes and ... what can i say ... it's brilliant - bitch difficult cooking challenges, little time to plan and execute each task, restricted ingredients, but fantastic dishes created in spite of limitations. You see real cullinary skill here. It has its minor faults, not enough time spent on each dish and too much with the lingering elimination drama, but other than that its really quite addictive. Oh and Padma is hot!!

Man that was such a powerful series ... I wish they hurry up with "the pacific" Band of Brothers sequel - well if it hasn't been shelved - hopefully just delayed due to writers strike see here ... http://url.ie/i0d
