Finally on the air! I haven’t seen the episodes until now, and there is always trepidation. Relief! I like them. A lot, actually. Although I hate watching myself on TV, and I dread HD more than anything. THE PORES!!!!!! I pick apart every little thing, and I didn’t like my hair straightened at all. Who was she? Was I fatter then? Definitely, yes. Oh, the battle. How appropriate, then, to start the show with an episode about food.
I don’t cook, so I related to Ellen and Sarah. Although, they REALLY don’t cook. I at least know how to make about five or six things. The problem has always been that for years, I was single in the city living equidistant from Fairway, Citarella and Zabar’s. That’s some of the best prepared food in the world. Why would I spend time marinating and chopping and sautéing when I can take a number and have a gorgeous meal, not to mention a pleasant conversation with the counter guy? So, as I said, I related to these women.

I'm watching the show now. My very first impression, and continuing impression with each moment that the hostess opens her mouth, is that she is mean spirited and insulting to the WOMEN on this challenge. They are not GIRLS, they are WOMEN, and you can start there. That they don't know how to cook was established, there is no reason to be insulting and vicious about it. It isn't entertaining, it's just mean. And you should have made that woman in the red hat take it off, or replaced her if she can't handle having people see her eyes. You should have caught this!

Who was the lady judging the first episode.. inbetween harold and yourself, with the red hat? Please inform he she looked rediculous wearing that HUGE hat INDOORS. I hope she isn't a staple in the show, because i will not watch any more episodes if i have to deal with looking at someone wearing rediculous hats. I do understand that on occasion people wear hats to feel more comfortable or secure. but she shouldn't be wearing a kentucky derby hat, indoors, as a judge on a show.
please refer to the brett michaels show on VH1 for evidence of how rediculous it looks to ALWAYS be wearing a hat.

Who won the challenge? My DVR recording of the show cut off before the winners were announced. What did the winning couple do with the money?

I love Susie weather its Better Half, Curb, getting to hear her voice on Crank Yankers or seeing her on someone’s Roast. I think Better Half is a great show so far, even though I have no idea who won (my VCR shut off to early?) I just wanted to give her a huge round of applause for all her great work and I can’t wait to see her twice a week NOW!!
