I would think that she would wise up and just have friends over. You would think that being in prision and not being able to cook that she would enjoy being able to do so now and have the freedom to entertain in the privacy of her home. She really doesn't need anymore bad press and still needs to watch what she is doing.

I don't watch reality shows as a rule and the only exception was Hells Kitchen. I didn't watch every week and basically was hit and miss. So I doubt I will be watching Martha's new show and I personally can't stand Trump. I think he is so full of hot air but we won't go there.

He definately needs an update on his hair and his eyebrows could use a trim.

I agree Marlene - and, my family along with myself can't stand these reality shows. What a waste!

I loved watching Hell's Kitchen and didn't miss a single episode. Even though Chef Ramsay was a real A** at times, he knew what he was doing and made an excellent mentor. I'm glad that the winner of the competition (Michael) turned down the opportunity for his own restaurant. Instead, he accepted Chef Ramsay's offer of an apprenticeship with Ramsay continuing his role as mentor. Watch out FTV......there's a new kid on the block!

It will be interesting to see if we here anymore about him and Ramsay. It would of really been something had Michael turned to Ralph and offered him a partnership or something. Wonder what Ramsay would of said? I wondered where or who was fronting the money for the restaurant when I first heard about this show and really was not suprised by the ending at all, solves all problems and saves on the pockets.

I was always kind of curious where the money was coming from to start up this new restaurant cuz lord knows......it ain't cheap. I would have thrown a brick at the tv if Michael offered Ralph a partnership. He was such a yutz. Even though Ralph had good ideas, Michael out shined him in culinary creations. It was pitiful how Ralph was trying to "hawk" his steaks on the streets, and I found it very humorous when Michael sabotaged Ralph by omitting the crab in the risotto. Ramsay's sous chefs were busting a gut!

I just would of liked them to throw a fast one and see how Ramsey would handle it. He needed something to shake him up!!!!! Personally I was for Michael all along and was happy he won. Someone said to me that he hid the meat on the blonde? Is that true? I didn't watch it all the time like I said because Ramsey, did work on my nerves.

Yep....what you heard was true. Michael for the most part was a team player, but sometimes his generosity in helping others became a hinderance. The other competitors "assumed" that Michael would bail them out. When Michael figured out that he was doing the brunt of the work, he simply quit helping them and focused on his primary tasks.

Chef Ramsay had the personality to grate on one's nerves. However; this only lasted a couple of weeks. He could dish out praise just as easily as criticism, and I actually watched him tear up when eliminating some of the chef hopefuls.

I hope that they do a follow up or we here something so we know how it is going for him and Ramsey.

Yes you are all right but it will still be a curious thing to watch at least in the beginning. I have a bad feeling that this reality thing is gonna make a fool out of her (she doesn't need any more of that) and be apart of the monologue jokes for Letterman and Leno. I don't fully know what the shows are about and it is hard to judge it just yet.

TLC will have her show on at 6PM EST starting September 12th. I don't know what that format will be but TLC keeps advertising it. It probably will be like the Food Network shows.
