who won the next food network star?
i came into work this morning and checked my typepad account and saw that my hits were through the roof. "huh?" i thought, as i haven't posted a new entry for a little while now (my move to san francisco along with trips to target and bed, bath & beyond have taken over my life!) but then i realized, last night must have been the finale of season 3 of the next food network star. as someone that lived in a tivo-less house and now lives in a tv-less apartment, i have missed the last 4 episodes. however, my cousin amy was kind enough to catch me up on last week's melodrama with our mr. jag. i still haven't the seen the episode but from the sound of it, it seems that it was pure reality-tv exploitation. all of that could have easily been edited out but that would have been too easy.
anyhow, so i've restrained myself from checking out who actually did win season 3 on the food network site. i only found out that the two women were left (finally, a woman!) when the ladies from last season (beth, carissa, evette and i) started an email chain discussing our thoughts on the show. i was a bit surprised that it was the two women left (nothing against either of them) as the network already has a "rory" and an "amy" (i.e. there are already too many caucasian women on the network, no?).
so, you tell me . . . who won? and if nobody tells me, i'm sure i can find out somehow, but it's just more fun hearing all you nfns viewers' opinions.
Amy won yesterday and i was clearly shocked that rory didnt win.I think that rory`s personality would have been more fun and entertaining then amy`s and more energetic. Well i hope that helped. Bye!

I see you have already been told that Amy won. I, personally, thought of the 2 finalist, she was the better candidate. She at least knows how to cook, where Rory CLEARLY does not. Do I think she'll have a good show? Who knows because I doubt I'll ever see it since I'll probably be sleeping during it's air time :-)

I loved Rory's personality a bit more. But I voted for Amy because I loved her concept for a show better. And after seeing the clips of them with their families and cooking; I think Amy was the best choice!

The only time I was shocked in the last two episodes was when the selection committee picked Jag over Amy. Amy had been a stand out from day one, IMO. I was relieved to have her step back in at the dramatic conclusion of the penultimate ep. I would have been content if either gal had won, but I thought Amy was the better choice.
