Top Chef, Season 7

Mean contestants, mediocre competitors, full of drama, worst season ever.

Does anyone know why season 8 All Stars is NOT on itunes? I hope it will be... its the only way I can watch the episodes!

As a Top Chef viewer from the very beginning, this season was extremely disappointing. The show is supposed to be about chef's and food, not about a political agenda and being in Washington DC is not an excuse. If Top Chef continues in this direction, they will certainly loose a loyal and passionate viewer.

I love this show but I HATE HOW LONG IT TAKES NEW EPISODES TO BE MADE AVAILABLE. It is currently thursday 1150am and I still have not received wednesday's episode. for the money we pay we should get it right away. I am Never again paying for another show.

My favorite contestant was eliminated in Episode 12!!!!! :(

Just charge $.99 cents for the extras... definetly "weak-sauce" - I'd like to be able to see the extra's w/o the stupid season pass... I love Top Chef, but definetly the most boring/stale season; so far. Hope Kelly wins. -4DX

Alex took those peas!

I don't understand what Top Chef is doing. First, they make you purchase the episodes unlike every other show on TV. Next, the resolution is so small that it's basically impossible to see. What a rip-off. This will be the last time I ever watch Top Chef. Like everyone else, I think it's getting stale fast.

There is just no comparison to the Season 6 chefs. I really enjoyed watching their comaraderie and their cooking. This nonsense in Season 7 with Angelo and the "strategizing" turns it into a soap opera instead of the quality cooking competition it is meant to be. If I considered that kind of petty nonsense entertainment, then I would just watch "Survivor" or some other lame show. Last season they had extraordinary guest judges because this show garnered attention and respect from the culinary world as well as tv critics. They will quickly lose that credibility with these kinds of contestants. It's really not a competition between the chefs. All every one of them can do is his or her best and that is what they are judged on. I enjoyed Season 6 so much more because they respected one another's talents and allowed their cooking 'game' to be raised by their fellow 'competitors'. And yes - waiting for episodes that have already aired some time ago is extraordinarily frustrating when you can usually find episodes of other non-internet shows - even Showtime and HBO - on guerrilla sites a day or two after they've aired. What is with itunes?

I find the chefs on the new season to be extremely boring. Where are the Marcel's, etc.?? The new season needs someone like Emmanuel DelCour from Chef Academy. Then, I think I would be more interested in watching.
