Who do you want to win Season 2? Personally I believe it should have been Sam...maybe they'll bring him back because of so much outrage about letting him go.

I was upset about Sams elimination!
I've been a fan both seasons & have never missed an episode.
I also visit Bravos website & have read all the blogs & seen all the bonus videos.
Quite the TC Addict I am!
But you have to put things in perspective.
It is a reality show! That means it is anything BUT real!
Did you know that as a result of somebody taking the "show" WAY too seriously, Marcel was actually hit over the head with a bottle by some irate fan in Las Vegas last week & received 30 stitches?
Trust me, I couldn't stand his annoying ways all season long but IT"S A REALITY SHOW !!!!!!!
It is editted & portrayed MUCH differently than it really was!
To get a better persective, I'm going to give you a link.
The link below will give you actual interviews with each of the contestants as they were eliminated,
Since these interviews are NOT with Bravo......you'll get a MUCH truer idea as to what REALLY happens behind the scenes.
Go & listen to each interview & you'll see what I mean.

After gaining this perspective, I wouldn't miss the Finale.
I really don't care who wins.......
It's just entertainment!
& It Will Be Entertaining!!!!
Four previously eliminated chefs come back to assist in the Final Episode!
That's Right!!!!!
Sam
Elia
Betty
&
Michael ARE ALL THERE !
How Freaking Entertaining can that be?????????????
I can't wait!
By the way....if you listen real carefully ...to all the interviews ...I think you'll see that Marcel really DID cheat, earlier in the season & got some of his recipes & ingredients (which they were NOT allowed to bring with them) confiscated!
Also that the 'head shaving incident' did NOT happen the way it was portrayed on TV.
& Sam is not upset about his elimination.....It is just a TV show &
"This does not define who you are as a chef" quote from Michael to one of the 'booted' chefs.
So watch the Finale!!!
You know you want to!!!!
LOL! LOL! LOL! LOL! It's NOT REAL!

I do watch it and I watched the aftershow last night on bravotv.com. Both Judge Tom and Sam were on as guests. Basically Tom said when it came down to it, Marcel and Elan's food was just better that night, so he had to send Sam off the show. He basically agreed that Sam and Elan were probably the best based on the entire season, but that's not how they do the judging.
They tried to address questions regarding Marcel's unprofessional behavior. I believe this unprofessional behavior was unethical and made the show worse, not better. Tom kept double talking around the issue and said it is about the food. I think they know that it his behavior wasn't right, but they think it was good for the ratings.
It definitely gives less credibility to the show and I am thinking of not watching anymore.
For what it's worth Tom and Sam seemed close and will be working together in coming weeks.

I would suspect that Ilan is going to win because he has way more talent then Marcel does. I certainly hope they don't give it to Marcel because of the "Cliff" incident. He wouldn't be fair to the true chefs of the show. I believe it should have been Sam and Ilan in the finals then it would have been a fair contest. Let's hope that Marcel makes another "FOAM" dish can you can never have enough of those.....NOT! hahahahaha

I think they are all fools, except for Sam. He's the only one that has stayed out of all the immature bullsh*t. Ilan is a huge baby, Marcel is the kind of guy you would like to punch in the face, and Elia left looking like a tattletale.

I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one that hates that Marcel made it to the top 2. I cannot believe that he made it this far. The judge's always have bad things to say about his entrees. I cannot believe they choose him for the top two. I honestly think they're feeling bad for him since everyone is against him. I cannot stand Colicchio or the other lizard looking judge (Gail). As for Padma, she needs to get booted as host!! She annoys the HELL out of me!! I SWEAR I'm not watching the finale nor am I watching next season. TOP CHEF SUX!!!!!!

Between the two, I would like Ilan to win. Of the entire show, I wanted Sam to win, but at least he still won $10,000.00 for being voted viewers favorite.

I want Marcel to win. Seriously, everyone hates him so much, but he doesn't do anything. I mean, yeah, sometimes he does/says stupid things, but not any more than other people do. It's just like he said, that they just hit his name on a dartboard and decided to hate him. Plus, he's totally the best. If not him, then Elia.

Well...I know Marcel better not win this ! I think we have seen enough gelle foam for several seasons. Elan...I like him....but he is always referring back to "Spanish" sabor....! Can he do anything else? I don't know about this season...was not to thrilled with last nights outcome. Thank goodness my real shows are coming back...prison break...top model...shield...!

i think marcel will win, but i don't like the guy. he is full of himself, and not in a good way. he has had some good dishes but he has also had weird ones(didn't he do the avocado ice cream?)
elian(sp?) to me is the best. she is creative and a decent person to deal with.
if marcel wins i think i'll stop watching the show
