Last Time on ‘Top Chef’: Restaurant Chores

Bravo viciously slipped in a repeat of Top Chef last week, perhaps taking a snow day, but it returns tonight (we assume).  With the new episode just hours away, let’s take a quick look back at what happened last time:

– They went to Eric Ripert’s Le Bernardin and watched this dude Justo butcher a bunch of fish like CRAZY:

More: Mike’s a moron, Marcel seeks council with Mr. Miyagi, and Fabio and The Blaise grow even closer…

You Do NOT Do This To Sue Simmons, Especially Not Today

Listen up, subway platform poster vandals.  We have no problem with you scrawling your signature “mustache” mustache on Betty White or Angelina Jolie or that girl from Heavy.  But you do not, DO NOT, touch Sue Simmons.  The woman is a city treasure and should be treated as such.

Speaking of Sue!  It just happens to be the biggest Sue Simmons day of the year!  Groundhog Day!  Which means that it’s time for her famous groundhog impression!  We’ll keep an eye out for her 2011 version, but, for now, here’s last year’s:

Brava, Sue.  Brava.

And a Snow Day Just Because

We never get tired of this either.  EVER.

But this is NOT the Danza Moment of the Week.  That would be unfair to you and unfair to us.

Groundhog Day Just Because

We never get tired of this.  EVER.

If you had only one day to live over and over again, what would YOU do?

There is a larger, deeper post somewhere in here about the existential subtext to Groundhog Day, but we have to get back to Saved by the Bell.  Maybe next year!

Season 3 Update: Guess Who’s Coming to Bayside

Midway through Saved by the Bell Season 3, and midway through the “Wicked Stepbrother” two-parter, we pause for a quick progress report.

The main thing we’ve learned so far is that we look TERRIBLE on a FlipCam.  Or possibly all the time.

C’mon, That’s a Joke, Right?

Doris Day?  You can’t be serious, Doris Day.

Well, it’s better than naming your daughter “Rock Hudson.”

But we’re surprised Ms. Day appeared on The View, and not The [Pillow] Talk.

Person of the (Last) Week: Tia Mowery

Who would have thought that January 2011, eleven years after Sister, Sister signed off the air, would hold the biggest week in Tia Mowery’s career?  But if you thumbed through last week’s Entertainment Weekly that’s just what it looks like, as Mowery is mentioned twice (twice!) within four pages. And a photo too!

It’s a little too soon to tell, but is 2011 the year of Tia Mowery?

Ball’s in your court, Tamera Mowery.

Or, perhaps, your move, Jackée.

Gratuitous Search Term Bait of the Day: Dynamic Duos

What a treat tonight!  Someone out there searched for “benry and fabio,” which means what you were really looking for was this:

But perhaps we were mistaken.  Perhaps what you were looking for was a shot of that famous scene from Lost when Benjamin Linus, aka Benry, and his fellow other Fabio turn the donkey wheel and are magically transported to Tunisia.  Well, don’t worry, because if that’s the case we got you covered too.

Jumped the Snark, your one stop shop for all things Benrys and Fabios.
