I'd say this was the worse season for me by far. Just didn't connect with any of them or found any of them likable. Nona is either deer in the headlights or full throttle on the drama and Russell is just a plain maniac that is going to call the bluff of the wrong person someday.
And Ramsay? Is he just phoning it in these days or what? The Kitchen Nightmares from the UK, before he stopped doing them in favor of the lucrative USA market, were absolutely brilliant with a good focus on the food and tailored to each restaurant, along with plenty of comedy. The KN here has the same exact script and ending on each one and it's getting a bit silly.

That's why I lost interest in KN. You can see the heavy, clumsy hand of Hollywood, making sure it goes the way they want. Nothing real about the KN model of reality TV.
Okay, I'm super tired and need to get some sleep, but I wanted to post before I go to bed. Mainly because I know you're all waiting with baited breath to see what I'm gonna say!
I am SO glad Nona won it!!! I am so glad my friend who told me the rumor was wrong. I think the waiter at LA Market just told my friend "I can't tell you his name" to throw my friend off the trail.
Russell has proven that he is first and foremost ..... a PR*CK!!!!! Nothing humble ever passes through that guy's lips. I loved how he was yapping about how his team "f****d the wrong guy". Nope dearie, looks like YOU p*ssed off the wrong people - and YOU paid for it, ya damn donkey!!!!!
I thought Nona was very nice with people on her team. She was firm, but also nice. She remained human. Russell was like Hitler. They should pit Russell against that other loud-mouth, red-headed moron from Texas who was on the show a few seasons back. I'd be interested to see which moron is tougher. Even better - pit Russell against Joseph - remember Joseph - "I aint no little b*tch"???
I have lots more to say (oops, I mean BRAY), but right now ... I be tired!!!! I'll be back tomorrow, and of course, you donkeys will see me on the KN thread soon!

I've actually been watching all the KNs over the past few weeks (never watched before) and I agree. Sometimes, it seems very forced; as if they make too big of a deal about one thing (in the beginning) and too little of a deal about another (in the end), so that they all follow the exact same f@#$ing script every single time! It gets very tiring after awhile.
Some of those restaurants were definitely salvageable (Finn McCool's, Santa La Brea), while others had no chance, even with Ramsay's help (Fiesta Sunrise, Handlebar). Then there were some where I felt as if they had a chance, but they were drowned in so much debt, that even with "success", they could still fail.
But I also felt as if the differences between the situations were downplayed in order to 'play up' their set script.
Still, I continue watching them because I love learning about businesses and I find it fascinating to see what sort of attributes tend to lead to failure. Definitely a few common themes have emerged throughout the series.
Hey Donkey's another season over. I was so happy Nana won and not that cocky a&& Russell.
On another note I saw a picture of Sabrina recently and she looked nothing like she looked on the show. I know someone she works with and didn't even know it was her.
Well anywho Donkeys have a great holiday and I'll see ya all over in the Nightmare thread
Hi Donkeys! I'm awake after a much needed rest - but still tired! WTH is wrong with me???!!!
Man ... that Russell just twisted my panties, man. Such a jerk. I knew he was gonna pick whats her face, um ... Jillian, man. Oh, and that other beyotch Sabrina. But it was funny how even they ended up hating the big moron.
I hope GR gets some GOOD donkeys up in dat b*tch next season! It would be a nice change of pace for once - JUST ONCE - to have a contestant - or, God forbid, TWO (or even three, but that would be pushing it, I'm sure) who coul;d actually cook and be competent - and NORMAL! Of course, have the usual batch of fools, cuz we donkeys need to be entertained.
I amm interested to see what Sabrina looks like IRL. Hopefully she looks better, cuz the Ellie May hair with the flower on the side just looks silly, and the witchie-poo glasses ... ugh!
Okay, gotta get some work done, so I will see all you donkeys and madames in the KN threads and again in the HK threads next season, and here and there (I post in the CA threads a lot). Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Nappy Kwanza, and Happy New Year, ya donkeys! Now p+*&^%# off with your darn selves!!!
