In every edition of Boob Tube, we’ll tackle the ins and outs of what’s on TV.

I’ll admit right now this may turn into somewhat of a rant. But I can’t help it – must all of the females on Top Chef be absolutely horrible? Jamie is the lone exception – she’s only sometimes kind of horrible. Then again, previews for next week do not bode well for our last remaining member of the mighty Rainbow Coalition.

Back to this week and, yes, *spoiler alerts* are ahead. Last night brought us the famous restaurant wars where the contestants must accomplish in just one day what it takes regular restaurateurs months and months to take a stab at. That means our Top Chefers must plan a menu, decorate a dining area and serve guests all the while trying not to screw everything up. Needless to say both teams struggled.

Correction: The girls on both teams struggled. (Except, of course, for Jamie who’s braised whatever it was she made was well received.) I hoped and hoped we’d see an epic Top Chef massacre with Radhika, Carla and Leah chopped all at once. We can see that’s where it’s going and now we must suffer through a few more weeks of this torture.

Allow me to explain/complain more: Radhika has no confidence or leadership qualities, which was her downfall this episode, Carla thinks sending her food out with “love” is enough to save her, and Leah has absolutely no personality unless she’s flirting with Hosea. Oh and none of them make good food. At all.

At this point, I’m watching simply for Fabio’s charm and good looks. Please Bravo, don’t take away my Fabio.
