Hell's Kitchen Season 4
TexasLady:
BbK: I'm not sure, it isn't racist but Bobby MIGHT have the talent but we don't know because we haven't been shown that he can indeed run a kitchen. I can only recall one time when he stepped up and took over. He also went to the dorm and got Petrozza back on track when Petrozza felt that he couldn't learn the menu. (Wow that was a LONG time ago wasn't it!) I did feel like he COULD lead a kitchen at that moment, but we just don't see it. Heather was a standout from the beginning of season 2, Rock last year.
It would be amusing if the black Gordon Ramsey won. (According to Bobby, that was his title.) :lol:
The odds have changed I see. (Thanks Ca for posting them!) If I read them right, it was Corey who had the best odds to win, wonder what changed. I know NOTHING about betting or odds.
I wonder who will get the meat station in next Tuesday's episode. That's the test for Ramsey's blood pressure. I am glad we didn't get a heads-up that someone was injured especially when you see the way Christina's trophy wife studen is using her knife! :groan:

Bobby has demonstrated that he is the best of a weak group of chefs by not making many errors rather than by dominating the competition. He has not done that much positive, but he has avoided the meat undercooked, meat overcooked, fish raw disasters that all of the others have had. Bobby's main negative is how he did in the first episode before he decided to change his tactics and the fact that he has been totally mediocre on the challenges.
Would I hire him to run a restaurant if I had one? I would, but I would not be paying him even $100,000 per year because he isn't worth it. What happens to chefs who get the big first-year bucks and then find out that they are masssively overpriced? I'll bet this has been an issue for Ramsay with Heather and Rock.

At the same time this may sound weird and it is not meant to sound racist but do you think an black male would win two years in row?

:groan: lol BballKates
Yes I think a black male would win two years in a row, just like a white chef had also won the first two years in a row :res:
Bobby is a contender in this season he has a degree in the culinary arts from Niagara County Community College
He has been working in the industry since age 16 so he does have a lot of experience
He also has a possible book deal and opportunities to work in several restaurants across the country
If Bobby doesn't win this season he will still be a successful chef
BballKates:
Hey I speak my mind, nothing wrong with that. It is clear on these cooking shows there is a male bias. Between Hells Kitchen and Top Chef only one women has won.
apskip:
I think Ramsay is color-blind and gender-blind. He values talent. As I have stated previously, I think Bobby is in the best position to win. So, yes we should see a second black male chef win, although it also could be a female. I don't think Petrozza has a very good chance because of his kitchen cleanliness. Ramsay values his honesty in assessing other chefs, but that will not carry over into a win for Petrozza because little else has been demonstrated.
