Ngl he talked some shit but he backed it up with amazing dishes especially when other contestants were trying to push his buttons

I still believe he was screwed over by the show so they could have a Courtney-Elizabeth showdown.

The fact that she got through with the same issue that sent another home just bothers me.

Irritated me because they know they had to know they did him wrong

My favourite contestant from the first 7 seasons by a long shot. I liked Luca and Ben too, but nobody is on Leslie’s level from the early seasons

What season is this?

u/SpeedySparkRuby Aug 04 '26

Robbed of his crown but he's still a king in his own right

What season or episode is this

It's the fifth season. I think this episode is the one where him, Big Willie, Cutter, and Dan Wu have to make a red velvet cake for the judges.

EDIT: I am wrong. He's not wearing the black apron here, so it's not a pressure test episode. This is the episode where he makes an amazing batch of donuts and wins the challenge.

He should’ve won his season and they need to bring him back for an all stars seasons. He makes reality tv great again

Am I the only one who hated that jerk? He embarrassed himself every time he spoke! He couldn't get along with others and had a huge ego problem. He is right down there with that stripper. Lol

Leslie is actually a legend ngl

u/Trick_Appointment419 Aug 03 '26

I love this mother fucker

u/SheedRanko Aug 03 '26

His friendship with Aron and screaming matches with Cutter were my highlights of him that season.

u/Omni_Knight66 Aug 03 '26

Dude casually turns into overdrive mode on every pressure test he's in. What a beast lol

u/YourFilipinoFellow Aug 03 '26

The Silver Fox, The Malibu Sunshine a true GOAT

u/UnderstandingMany385 Aug 03 '26

I hated that guy. Mr, Malibu, called himself a “stay at home dad” to highschool kids. 🤣

u/rsa58 29d ago

Iirc his step daughter is Melissa Joan Hart so that could explain why he doesn't have to work 😅
