The second season ended with two big episodes. We learn more about Ellie’s vocabulary, Taco starts year two for his thousand year-old eggs, and things get dark by the end of the last episode.
For almost two months, we’ve wondered — who is Dee’s baby daddy?! Thanks to the season finale, we have an answer, and a surprise tender moment before the big reveal.
This week, the contestants cooked for Joe Jonas, Katie Lee Joel and a museum full of kids. The only thing more surprising than the tempers flaring at judges’ table is the frustrating error I saw within the rules of this week’s challenge.
A lot of funny stuff happened in this episode, but we got to see Pete be accidentally heroic and Ruxin be apologetically horrible. And Taco predicts how his friends will die, to the delight of me.
Granted, they only took a trip to Atlantic City, but this is the first time I know of them actually leaving the city of Brotherly Love. Charlie and Dennis meet two pro-athletes. The others meet a rabbit.
Last season felt like a decline from what has been a strong show and competition. I’m glad to see this season started off well … thanks to competitors who have been there before and the right challenge.
With the boys being thrown their senior prom, the writers could have gone in many different directions. They made great use of the longer episode, which makes my job hard — I want to talk about it all!
