Now that Bri has returned to the kitchen on “MasterChef,” the drama of this show is back. We now know that eliminations are for good, and of the group that remains, every single dish counts. Lucky for Krissy, she did not even need to worry about having to face off in the elimination challenge thanks […]
With every season of a reality show, you have a few characters who you think would have almost certainly stood out more had they been given the opportunity. Eddie Jackson from “MasterChef” is one of them. The former NFL player proved to be a great interview last week, as he was funny, honest, and gave […]
Let’s start this “MasterChef” interview with a bit of a programming note: We conducted this interview back when Bri Kozior was still a contestant on the show, and so, it was impossible to know whether or not she was going to be coming back to the competition. It did end up happening, so this marks […]
Tonight’s episode of “MasterChef” was a little bit more about not who is currently in the competition, but instead something else shocking and important: Who is returning to the game. For the second straight season, the show chose to bring back a home cook that was eliminated from the show earlier on in the season. […]
While we loved seeing “MasterChef” enter the wild outdoors last week, there was something rather comforting about Wednesday’s installment: There was a mystery box competition, and then an elimination that had actually been done before in the past. The family challenge was a little sappy, as these sort of things are, but for some perspective, […]
After a pretty exciting episode of “MasterChef” last week, one that included a heck of a crazy challenge involving an outdoor competition, we are returning now to some of the series’ roots for Wednesday night’s installment: A mystery box challenge, and then an elimination one. One more chef will be eliminated on the show, and […]
Ever since Graham Elliot first hyped up this outdoor-themed challenge on “MasterChef” to us earlier this summer, we’ve been stoked to see how it will happen. You’re putting cooks out there, including some who probably hate the outdoors, into a pretty tricky environment and then asking them to function. Not exactly a fun way to […]
It may seem strange, but we almost prefer these mystery box / elimination challenge episodes of “MasterChef” more than the ones that get the contestants out of the kitchen. We get to see a heck of a lot more creativity here, whereas watching everyone do the same thing a la a pressure test is never […]
As a television viewer and a writer, it’s pretty impossible to watch a season of “MasterChef” and not have some favorites. For us, one of the guys we personally rooted for was Jonny Blanchard. He was friendly, had a unique take on food, and really just seemed like the kind of guy you’d want to […]
It’s not often that a two-hour episode of “MasterChef” really manages to leave a big impression on us with its first hour, but this episode of the show tonight really managed to pull that off. Why? The easy answer is that it all came down to an exit that we (and no one else) likely […]
