Fabio is the manNot a big fan of the show but I am going to be in the next episode at the mueseum of natrual history. The food tasted great but over all FABIO IS THE MAN!.Score: 5/5

Never AgainLook, I love Top Chef, but iTunes can take a leap!!! This is the last season I will pay for here. I have paid for the last few seasons so that I can download and watch the epesodes in a timely manner, since I work odd hours. However, iTunes can't seem to figure out how to get these videos posted, sometimes for several days. By this time someone at work has already ruined it for me. From now on, I will just save my money and watch the free, pirated versions on-line. Sure the quality is aweful, but at least they get it posted before the end of the season..Score: 1/5

Richard, you're Top Chef!I'm so happy Richard won TOP CHEF ALL STARS! he deserves it. I'm a fan. Michael did a great job too. But Richie is the strongest chef..Score: 5/5

Too slowThe show continues to be great, but it takes too long for new episodes to be posted..Score: 3/5

I love the showIts a great show and really fun to watch all the past chef's compete against each other. Having chef's that have been on the show before really adds a fun twist. Wish they would get episodes up sooner. I will buying future season passes for this reason.Score: 5/5

Get realBasically watching a movie briefs. It dawned on me it's the same thing every single week. They have to cook something the judge's eat it they might when a car and avoid elimination. Does everyone want to follow that. Apparently so since it's has a lot of seasons to back it up. I watched about five episodes and was completely bored. And I really think that you might start to phase out this reality TV show. If worse comes to worse as some viewers if they enjoyed the TV chefs or if they're getting kind of bored and thought the same thing like survivor or ER. Sometimes the public will give a positive comments or negative comments but I have to say I have a little hint,, it's going to be negative..Score: 2/5

Great Season!So I bought this season way after it was released, so I didn't have any of the waiting around for episodes to download problem. Just wanted to pipe in and say that this season of Top Chef was pretty fantastic. I enjoy Hell's Kitchen and Gordon Ramsay, but Top Chef is just SOOOO much happier. Chef's are pretty friendly to each other, and respect one another. The whole season made me feel close to all the competing Chef's, and was also sad to see them go. Had a good time watching this!!.Score: 4/5

Where is episode 5?Is it my imagination, or did last Thursday's (12/30) simply never get posted? There's an Episode of "Pushing Up Daisies" with the correct title (Dim Sum Lose Some) but nothing here. What's up??.Score: 5/5
