So you've read my advance review of the original UK episode (sadly, edited down here for US audiences) and watched last night's two-hour launch of BBC America's latest unscripted series, Last Restaurant Standing.So what did you enjoy about the series and what did you dislike? Did Sam and Jacqui irk you as much as they did me? (Sadly, a whole subplot involving Sam making a phone call to complain about a sous chef candidate right in front of the poor old guy was cut.)
Who are you rooting for and, based on this week's installment of Last Restaurant Standing, who should win this cutthroat culinary contest?
Talk back here.

What I'll Be Watching
8 pm: America's Next Top Model.
No, it's not the start of the new series (damn!), but the second of two specials entitled "Exposed," in which the audience gets to relive "favorite moments" from the series. Like maybe when Jael made a fool of herself and jumped in the pool at Benny Medina's party. Good times.
10 pm: Project Runway on Bravo.
On tonight's episode ("The Art of Fashion"), it's time for one last field trip, where the designers get to use their own unique artistic visions to create a design, before leaving to go and design their own lines. Looks like there will be four runway shows after all this year!
Comments
I thought that Sam and Jacqui did an okay job in the challenge but totally depended upon the other teams helping them. Sam was nowhere to be found! I wish they would have brought that up in the elimination. Yes, they pulled it off but only because of the people helping them.
