Ugh. Just when you think it can't get any worse.

No kidding.

it just keeps going down hill, since when did the Neely's become Paula's babies ? she kept talking like she is hatching their show.

I'm begining to think that Bob Tuschman has started drinking the kool-aide. I don't know what they are thinking with some of their programming decisions.

FN needs to get in touch with what the viewers want. They aren't listening.

I made a special point to DVR this because I love me a good train wreck and I knew this would be a good one. It really didn't surprise me to find out that Rosie and Paula are good friends. Two of a kind, those two are.



You know, the real shame of the matter is how much I've always liked Paula. She seemed so warm and genuine, plus, she could cook. She reminded me so much of my great-grandmother. She was the epitome of a southern belle, and yet was so much darn fun. Everyone loved her and would giggle at the stuff that came out of her mouth. She knew how to let down her hair and enjoy herself. Sometimes she'd say things that would be a little crass and it shocked everyone, but she never said anything too vulgar. When Paula's Party first came on, I kind of enjoyed it just because it reminded me of my grandmother. As time went on, even I was turned off by it, especially with her sexual innuendo. I mean, ewwww. The whole thing is a darn tooting shame.

While I prefer 'daytime Paula' over 'nightime Paula', I still tuned in to the show because I love Rosie. Oh, did I say I love Rosie? Between the two of them I don't know which one was more obnoxious; Rosie going off on her own agenda and trying to out-yell Paula or Paula yelling back trying to get the show back on schedule.

One thing I did learn watching the show was that Paula wore extensions. Who knew? I love her hair, no matter what. She looks like a classy southern woman....too bad she has to open her mouth and ruin it.

I know Pat and Gina Neely were originally 'introduced' on one of Paula's nightime shows last year. They made it sound like they were all long-lost friends but Paula's from Georgia and the Neelys are from Nashville. From what I understand she invited them to appear on her show because Pat was restauranteur of the year. The FN must have liked what they saw and the rest is history.

Even more annoying than Rosie was Paula and Gina trying to make a roux for the mac and cheese and chattering away while poor Pat was trying to tell a story. It was like watching "The View" and everyone talking over everyone else.

Honestly, when you think about all of the critical comments that Tuschman and the other judges on "The Next Food Network Star" have to say about some of the varied idiosyncracies of the contestants, it makes you wonder what the heck they are drinking.
