Yea, I used to get bummed when a season ended too.  My favorite show for so many years.  Got as far season 14 but then I can't remember why I didn't continue.  Maybe I'll see if I can stream 15-17.  If you had to pick one?

 

Oh god, impossible, lol!  A lot of them I’m so fond of some of the chefs and so I get bummed when they get eliminated.  I also get pissed when one of my faves loses to the wrong chef (imo, of course 😁.  Seasons 2 and 11...).  

 

Season 11, Nick winning didn’t sit at all well.  Soft spot for Stephanie, Nina too.  Sad thing is, Nick was chef de cuisine for Georges Perrier at Le Bec-Fin, before it closed.

 

Which brings up a point.  I’m so often blown away by the pedigree many of these chefs have, only to cook so poorly on the show.  Or tanks a relationship with mentors, e.g. season 8, J’en and Eric Ripert.  Yikes! )
