MasterChef Interview

This past episode of MasterChef certainly deserves some credit for being intense — it also had the most surprising elimination of the season so far. Brien O’Brien performed well during his time on the show — he was successful in several challenges, and was considered so strong that he was the first person Adam selected for his […]

Jeff Philbin is one of the home cooks on MasterChef season 8, and if you’re watching with regularity, you are certainly aware that he is one of the standouts. He’s a huge personality and is often hyper-competitive in some of the challenges, but he also has a big heart and cares deeply about other people. As of […]

On Wednesday night’s MasterChef steak was at the focal point of almost everything, but it was also the undoing for Necco Ceresani. He was placed into the group of strong home cooks by Mystery Box winner Newton, but unfortunately, the hanger steak challenge proved to be his undoing. His exit means that we don’t get to learn all about […]

Wednesday night’s new episode of MasterChef was arguably the most dramatic one of the season and for many reasons. You had a very intense team challenge, conflict leading into the Pressure Test, and then a showdown between Yachecia Holston and Jennifer Williams all about fish and chips. It was depicted as a pretty close battle, but in the […]

Sam Reiff-Pasarew was the latest contestant eliminated from MasterChef season 8, and it’s certainly clear he had quite the journey. He had to fight for survival the majority of the time that he was in the kitchen, and ultimately found himself sent home in 17th place. Nonetheless, he was one of the season’s most rootable contestants, an […]

After a week off MasterChef season 8 is going to return with new episodes on Fox Wednesday night at 8:00 p.m. Eastern. While you wait for that, why not hear from the last person eliminated? Heather Dombrosky was taken out of this past episode of the competition in the midst of a challenge that was all about […]

On Wednesday night, there is a new episode of MasterChef airing on Fox; before that, why not get an update from the most-recent champion? Shaun O’Neale exited the show last year as a champion, and since that time he’s been busy! He’s got a cookbook entitled My Modern American Table, he’s been touring the country, and he’s also […]

On Wednesday night’s new episode of MasterChef season 8, Paige Jimenez became the second home cook eliminated from the top 20 after a difficult Pressure Test. She was the youngest contestant of the season, but still was certainly competitive and had never really been in danger before trying to replicate that dish from chef Aaron Sanchez. So […]

Mark Togni was the first contestant eliminated from the MasterChef top 20 this season, but he accomplished two things during his time there: Being incredibly memorable in a short period of time, and also making us super-hungry for chocolate chip pancakes. His most famous moment on the show is probably a joke that he made to Heather […]

With MasterChef season 8 premiering Wednesday night (8:00 p.m. Eastern on Fox), there is one thing that is going to stand out as different right away: Aarón Sánchez. After a season of the flagship show and a season of MasterChef Junior as a guest judge, the Johnny Sánchez restaurateur is going to be coming on full-time. So what is he bringing to […]
