SFist Watches: Your Locals On Reality TV

nextironchefcast.jpgLet's start with "The Next Iron Chef." For the challenge ("Resourcefulness") the chefs were broken into teams by last week's winner Chris Cosentino, of local restaurant Incanto, and the teams then selected secret ingredients for their teammates. The challenge wasn't a team challenge, though, so there was much crying of "sabotage" when the chefs got to their outdoor, charcoal grill-equipped location and saw their ingredients.

Chris made a juniper-smoked breast of squab marinated with sherry vinegar for his first dish, and a dandelion green salad with red onions, blackberries, and black walnuts for his second dish. The judges didn't think he was resourceful enough with his preparation of the squab, and found his second dish was just standard restaurant fare. Despite that, he was not eliminated.

Over on "The Bachelor," local girl Sheena didn't get to go on a two-on-one or a one-on-one date, instead being relegated to the group date which required the girls to crawl on all fours and beg for the bachelor's love.

Seriously.

Sure, they said it was "improv"--and if you've ever seen improv done badly, you know what hell might be like--one part of which required the girls to pretend they were dogs and beg for a rose. Kristy ended up in tears, not because she had just humiliated herself for the sake of a man she hardly knows, but because she knew she hadn't been as good at it as the other girls. Hoo boy

At the pre-Rose Ceremony cocktail party, Brad reiterated to Sheena that his brother really liked her when they played that trick on her last week. And she reiterated to Brad that she was there for all the right reasons. And then she cried. But, once again Brad proved he has a thing for criers as he gave both Sheena and Kristy roses.

Next week, Sheena slips down some stairs!

I think I'm going to produce a third TV series following on the success of my first two, "America's Most Hilarious-est Spinal Injuries" and "Did You Fuck Her?"

"GARBAGE CHEF" will challenge each contestant to produce a restaurant-quality dish based on real-world ingredients like fertilizer, used medical sharps, and urine. Initially, only 1 inch paring knives will be allowed in the kitchen. Each week, the contestants to come up with the most innovative dishes and who survive the inevitable stab wounds in the chest from kitchen utensils will advance to the next round, and the allowable length of knives will be increased by 1 inch. All contestants much certify that they have at least one personality disorder as listed in the DSM-IV manual, but a felony record, dishonorable discharge, or concealed weapon permit are acceptable substitutes.
