5×14: I think enough time has passed to do a write-up of the finale of Hell’s Kitchen without spoiling who the winner is for that one person that accidentally stumbles upon my site, in the event that he or she is a fan of the show and hasn’t seen this episode, since no one else seems to visit this site. Also, I’ve just been really lazy in getting around to writing up this episode. A quick side note, I ended up spoiling the results of the winner for myself because I couldn’t wait to see who won since I missed the initial broadcast of the episode and had to view it later on hulu.

So the winner was Danny, which kind of surprised me because I honestly was expecting Paula to win because I imagine Chef Ramsay to be some sort of repressed horndog who would give the win to Paula because she’s female, hot, and pretty, and talented, lest we not forget that she is also talented. Also, Danny is a self proclaimed redneck, so I thought that would hurt his chances, but, as Chef Ramsay explained that he had decided on Danny as the victor because Danny had improved the most in the shortest amount of time, giving the win to Danny makes a lot of sense, and Danny does seem pretty talented and seemed to do the best job at the final dinner service.

In my last post, when talking about the eliminated contestants that returned to the show to help out the final two in the last dinner service, I was under the impression that they had returned of their own free will, but based on Giovanni’s comments, I don’t think they had a choice about whether they wanted to come back or not. I guess either some, if not all, of the eliminated contestants are kept under contract or at a hotel room until completion of filming of the competition so as not to spoil the results of the show as it airs (like how eliminated contestants of Survivor are kept secluded so that the paparazzi can’t snap shots of them and deduce who got eliminated before whom months before the show air). But either way, man Giovanni had a piss poor attitude this episode, especially after he was so gung ho about the competition when he was still in the running and had just joined the girl’s team all of those episodes back.

As much as I was rooting for Paula to win, Carol’s explanation of why she wanted Paula to win just pissed me off. Carol wanted Paula to win only because Paula is female and Carol is a feminist – that makes no sense to me. Bitches, I mean women, are always complaining that they want to be treated as equals, and in a cooking competition like Hell’s Kitchen, gender should not play a role, only talent should. Man that type of ignorance displayed by Carol pisses me off.

Another thing that pisses me off is when contestants are trash talking about how they are gonna whoop the other’s ass and win the competition… I mean, if two contestants are both saying shit like that, and there can only be one winner, then obviously one of them has to be wrong, right?

Anyway, another season of Hell’s Kitchen down, which I just found out was filmed immediately after the last season, and I also found out that season six starts airing in late July, which is great because that means that the withdrawal period between new Hell’s Kitchen won’t be that severe. Yea!
