Top Chef - S08E09 - "Feeding Fallon"

Carla is nuts. But we all knew that already :) She has 3 challenges now, which is amazing. She is a great underdog who is a lot more dangerous now than she was in her previous season. I was really pulling for Angelo to win, but maybe Carla is more "fun for TV" than Angelo? The bottom three were Fabio, Tiffany, and once again Dale. Heading into the end, I was certain it was going to be Tiffany who hasn't really performed well this season. However, it was Fabio who took the fall. Fabio is great TV, but I never really found him to be a great chef. I'll miss his one liners and fobby pronunciations, until the reunion show! 8/10





Modern Family - S02E14 - "Bixby's Back"

It's year two for the Dunphy family Valentine's Day and I was more than happy to see Clive Bixby return. Last year was hilarious with Claire getting her robe caught in the escalator. This year, was a little more predictable - with Phil taking the wrong keycard and ending up in the wrong hotel room naked. Phil had some great moments, especially when he was driving scooter in the restaurant and kissing Claire in the bar then spitting out her drink into a cup. He also had the line of the night, "I'm usually pretty good at catching things from women in bars." Meanwhile, Cameron and Mitchell had their spat on which one gay guys were lusting over. That was only mildly funny, and the Jay/Gloria & Manny/Haley were just there and provided no laughs. Claire was looking absolutely stunning in this episode though! Definitely, not a shame! 8/10
