Top Chef is back, and we’re here to give you all the amateur insights and discussion you could possibly want. 19 cheftestants dive into the swamp and only three come up smelling like roses.

There’s no Quick Fire this week (because there are a bazillion chefs? That’s probably why.) so we spend most of our time discussing the new twists on the show (drama cam! shorter intro! everybody is hot!) and the elimination challenge which featured three traditional swamp proteins: frog legs, turtle, and alligator.

What do you think about season 11? Is everybody too sexy? Do Tom and Emeril love hanging out TOO MUCH? And this week’s Quick Pick: who’s going to be the next losing chef with a winning TV personality? Let us know in the comments!
