I was glad to hear that Micheal got the boot. While he was a likeable guy, you cannot be a TV star if you see "the fires of hell" every time you look into a TV camera.
I don't think Melissa can win. Remember that the goal of the reality show is to find a new personality and host for a new cooking show. Melissa's schtick is that she's a "moms cook" who specializes in throwing together fast meals that any working mom or family can assemble in a short period of time. Just one problem...that's basically the exact same format as Rachael Ray's 30 Minute Meals, her anchor show on their network and one of their biggest moneymakers. There is NO WAY that the FN is going to broadcast another show from some reality-show winner to compete head to head with one of their primary breadwinners. It just isn't going to happen.
I think Debbie will win, simply because she brings something unique to the FN. They have NO shows dedicated to Asian cooking, and everything Debbie does is either Asian, Asian-inspired, or has an Asian flair.
I was really bummed to see that Katie couldn't overcome her own personality enough to stay on the show. She was whiny and irritating, but I genuinely enjoyed some of the food ideas she brought onto the show and WOULD have watched her. Eco-friendly, healthy, easy to prepare meals, and especially vegetarian fare, is another hole in the FN's offerings.
