'Top Chef Texas' recap: 'Fire and Ice'

'Top Chef Texas' recap: 'Fire and Ice'

Hello, Top Cheffers! Tonight’s episode felt like the quiet before the storm. The final three chefs, Lindsay, Paul and Sarah, are very friendly toward one another. Usually there is a little infighting or a passive-aggressive “good luck” here and there within the final cheftestants, but these three sincerely seem to enjoy each one another's company. That is lovely in real life but leads to a bit of a boring episode.

'The Real Housewives of Orange County' recap: Episode 3, 'The Honeymoon Is Over'

The overarching theme for this week’s episode is the fact that the honeymoon is indeed over. Not only are the relationships between the ladies facing challenges, the ladies are also revealing their less-than-perfect qualities to us, the viewers. I know you thought that had already happened, but trust me -- we ain’t seen nothin’ yet!

Man, those judges on “The Voice” did some major work tonight, scooping up more talented hopefuls as we endured (enjoyed?) another week of blind auditions. I seem to have forgotten that this show is a marathon, not a sprint – but we’re so close to finishing the first stretch of the race.

'Khloe & Lamar' recap: Season 2 premiere, part 2

Part two of the season opener kicks off with a discussion about Malika’s boyfriend, Adrian Wilson, a player for the Arizona Cardinals. We try to figure out whether Rob (or the rest of the Free World) actually cares about this situation. The jury is still out on that for now. Also, we also see Lamar dealing with insomnia, brought on by the NBA lockout … still getting no specifics about the move to Dallas.

Tonight’s episode starts on an odd note with Vicki asking the kitchen staff – again! - if she can “help with anything.” She ended last week’s episode with this question, which, for one TV Lust reader, made her a nominee for Class Clown. By repeating the ridiculously rhetorical question, Vicki overthrows Tamra and wins the title by a landslide.

Another week of blind auditions on NBC’s “The Voice,” and another two hours to boil down into a single blog post. A nice change of pace this week for the audience: Instead of clipped montages of contestants who didn’t make the cut onto Adam Levine’s, Cee Lo Green’s, Christina Aguilera’s or Blake Shelton’s teams, the clipped montages were of contestants who did, in fact, get slots in the competition.
