SFist Watches: Your Locals On Reality TV
First off: Lisa lost "Top Chef." Stephanie won. All is right with the reality TV world. The reunion show is this Wednesday, and we can't wait to see what the other chefs have to say about Lisa making it to the final three. And we'll see if Lisa continues to badmouth the stupid, poor bloggers who can't even afford to eat in her restaurants.
Which leaves us with "The Bacherlorette" and local bachelor and chef Robert Fair. Last week we were perturbed by his inability to completely button up a shirt, and this week's episode was no different. He also demonstrated some awful passive aggressive tendencies when, during an impromptu backyard barbecue party, he went off and sulked in a corner because...well, because he wasn't getting enough attention from DeAnna, frankly. Ultimately, his pissiness made DeAnna cry and lecture the guys like a total drama queen.
Robert was obviously doomed going into his two-on-one date (dirty!), but he didn't really seem to see it that way, professing more than once that it was obvious he and DeAnna had a lot of chemistry. When DeAnna asked the two guys (Chicago Fred being the other one) what the most romantic things they had ever done were, Robert when into a long story about flying his ex-fiancee out to Vegas, chartering a helicopter, and then spelling out "I love you" in rose petals on their hotel bed. Man. The old rose petal bit. *Yawn*
During their one-on-one time, Robert and his open shirt and shiny face told DeAnna that he thinks the "passion side of a relationship" can be felt on the first kiss. After saying this he went right in for a kiss, like it was the smoothest move in the world, and DeAnna offered him nothing but a cheek. FAIL.
At the end of the date, DeAnna didn't give Robert a rose and sent him packing. In the Limo of Sorrow, he broke down more than most of the ladies on "The Bachelor" do, crying into his bare chest. Sorry bro. Good luck with the cooking for guys thing though, or whatever it is. (Also, poor Fred. After Robert was sent home, he thought he was set. And then she sent him home too! Ouch!)
