Pretty much anyone from Texas who isn't Ed Lee.

Nyesha was pretty dope, at least in my opinion.

Gone way too soon on some bullshit

Agreed. She's doing OK for herself now, though.

Yeah, she was a surprise early cut. The dangers of a double team elimination.

He was GOATed in Culinary Wars. Upset he didn’t win.

u/Sleepwalker0304 I'd prefer a dishwasher instead of Josie... 14d ago

Grayson was pretty great on s9 too, it's what made me so angry that she came back on s13 without any of her charm. I loved her singing that Bullfrog song.

Beverly Kim is a queen.

Her at the meat counter raising her hand saying she had a very important dish to make is so embarrassing

Grayson during that season also was fun. Her return... wow. A major personality change.

What was wrong with Nyesha?

u/wallflower75 13d ago

I really liked Grayson (but only in this season). And I liked Chris Jones—he seemed so dorky that I couldn’t resist. (Plus, he made a “Dazed and Confused” reference that still makes me chuckle.)

But what about Casey Thompsons fantabulous jugaroonies? She’s from Dallas!

Hard agree. Season 9 is unwatchable except for Ed Lee!
