Kane's kitchen may well rule!

[crazzymikey]

I am hoping they win!

good t see a gay guy and his fag hag doing so well :)

[Gloomis666]

Why is it "Kanes kitchen"?
we all know the chinese chick got the balls.

[crazzymikey]

lol they work really well together which is one of their big strengths. I agree that the girl is probably a little better a cook but watching them you can see they both know what they are doing.

[Gloomis666]

yeah but she is yum and toned also hot looking while he looks like something that fell out of a pelicans ass and landed on a rock last week when I was tryng to catch a salmon.

[Totka]

I think they have no chance of winning. They chicks they are up against are better by miles.

[Gloomis666]

hmm have to watch the ol Italin chick, they got a few tricks up the sleeve.

[ernesto_1]

wot is this kanes kitchen?

[Gloomis666]

It's a show called my Kitchen rules.

[crazzymikey]

yeah but she is yum and toned also hot looking while he looks like something that fell out of a pelicans ass and landed on a rock last week when I was tryng to catch a salmon.

thats really harsh, he is cute

[crazzymikey]

I think they have no chance of winning. They chicks they are up against are better by miles.

yeah those girls are amazing cooks but kane an lee have a talent for surprise and being very original

[Dion]

And the girls won, 2 10's and 4 9's for 56/60. Kane and Lee 4 9's and 2 8's for 52/60.
cheers,
Dion.

[crazzymikey]

I wouldnt be surprised to see the italian gals with their own tv show and seeing more of kane and lee but the girls although brilliant cooks are boring whingers without that interesting I want to watch them factor.

[ernesto_1]

another "win" another cook book deal another year.

[Virgindirk]

And now its only 2 and1/2 weeks until the start of masterchef. Seriously, with all these cooking competition/reality shows on tv , eventually ratings will struggle and viewers will get sick of it, I know i already am.

[ernesto_1]

i am so sick of cooking shows. masterchef willl seriously suffer as a result coz of this flood of celebrity cooks.

too many cooks in the kitchen lah

[Virgindirk]

Masterchef is pretty much going the same way as Big Brother and Australian Idol did. Both BB and AI wereboth massive hit shows when they first started, but then ch.10 decided to flog the shit out of them at any given opportunity and viewers got sick of it, ratings took a dive and both shows eventually got axed.And don't get me started on what the former conestants of these are doing now.

[crazzymikey]

I love these cooking shows! Its renewed my interes tin cooking. I say if your no tinto it then don't watch them. Ratings are still the highest for them

[Virgindirk]

I love these cooking shows! Its renewed my interes tin cooking. I say if your no tinto it then don't watch them. Ratings are still the highest for them

I dont watch them, but i keep hearing/reading about them wherever i go just like I did with Big Brother and Aus. Idol. Cooking shows are in fashion atm, but like fashion itself many trends and fads come and go pretty quickly and the sad thing is people like Julie Goodwin, Kane & Lilly etc. are put on pedistals,given all the media asskissing and treated like B-list celebrites.....until the public get sick of them and move on the the next tv fad/trend.

[ernesto_1]

the next fad is ME. im going to apply for Big Brother... if it ever gets back on. X factor requires some talent which i have none of!

[Virgindirk]

You can be a judge....most of them dont have much talent.

[chad_74]

sadly Kane and Lee lost,not because they were the lessor cooks but because they appeared too gay.They only lost due to the "matthew mitchem"factor.This type of shitting over the top of gay people shows how backward this country in thinking and acting on equality for us.We are ok to be seen as a freak show but recognising our talents is a no no.Due to the extensive bigotry and hatred against us no supermarket would allow us to win because they may be boycotted by showing they support us.

[badamj2000]

I dont watch these 'cooking shows'. I must be the only one in the country!!!

Are you kidding? They lost simply cause they were outdone by the opposition, not beacuse one of them is openly gay.They made final, if they were being victimised by extensive bigotry and hatred then they probably would have been elimated weeks ago.

And what the fuck is the Matthew Mitcham factor and what on earth as he got to do with Kane and Lilly losing the final? Last time i checked Matthew Mitchem WON a gold medal, and he won because he had talant and trained hard, not because of his sexuality and he was open about being gay before he competed in the Bejing games.

well I don't know where you got that frm but I believe it was close and they lost because the asian cuisine they offered didnt appeal as much to the juges as you may have noticed none of them are asian cuisine chefs its no surprise their tastes and desires lie with the more european cuisine of the other girls.

I dont get why they got 10 though and risotto? how boring. it looked liek shit lol obviously I dont like rissotto hehe.

anyways at the end of this its obvious who we will see mroe of which is kane and lee and the italian chicks they ahev so much more persoanlity

cooking shows have alwyas been popular, I agree that there is an increased fashionable fad at moment with the reality aspect

[Matt Akersten]

A shame they didn't win. They did so well! An exciting show last night. And I learned how to do new things with tufu...

[lukehuggett]

Perspective on the above tedium you may be experiencing with cooking shows...

http://hungrybeast.abc.net.au/stories/spoilers

[ernesto_1]

they couldnt have ripped off big brother? 3 shows doing it would mean i get more chance of getting on it.

[Gloomis666]

The winner wins the game the loser wins the war.

I thought they did pretty well indeed, to get as far as they did.

I also think she looks awsome...

PLEASE!

From what I heard, the girls cooked a much more technically difficult meal, plus they have showed variety throughout the series. Notice how the other team ALWAYS cooked Asian meals whenever they had a a choice? Not a lot of variety.

For you to claim bigotry that a gay team came 2nd out of 12th (not to mention all the other straight teams that DIDN'T get through) actually does worse for how gays are perceived than for a team with one gay member to "not win" a show like this.

It took me about half a second of watching Kane to realise that he was almost certainly gay. I also realised that he was probably being himself and not putting on a persona.
How is that acting like a freak show?

Thinking back to past reality shows, Masterchef series 2 had an open gay in the final 4, and I think a second in the final 6.

Big brother one year had an open (and VERY flamboyant) gay in the finals and he only lost by a few percent. This was astounding because he was actually an "Intruder" and they generally have NO chance at winning.

Also Talkin' Bout Your Generation features a homosexual Josh Thomas on as a main cast member. Ruby Rose has appeared several times.

We have a variety of different types of LGBT characters on Australian TV, but it seems like if someone is "too gay" then it's a network exploiting a "freakshow", but if they are "straight acting", then it's the network "playing safe".

I took an instant disliking to Kane as not only did I not like his personality but I didn't find their food to be that impressive (as far as I could tell). I was very surprised that their team was in the finals, but very relieved that they didn't win.

[Gloomis666]

hey remember big brother and the flamboyant gay guy (the blondie one from memory) right and he was getting it off with some wog guy in the shower and big brother asked him about it, but them it just dissapeared from the script, as if it never happened.

There was a gay relationship going down but big brother quashed it.

Big Brother was in fact homophobic family freindly media.

[JarrodJ]

I think you're talking about Country boy David and the other guy Michael? Where they used trick editing to make it look like they were kissing?

[mark_]

…Big Brother was in fact homophobic …
Nonsense!! that show was very liberal with almost no censorship

[JarrodJ]

Let's not forget the year they introduced a second gay guy, obviously in hopes that he would click with farmer David.

I believe they also aired Farmer David's big rant about why Australia should have gay marriage?

(Although, they did cut to a long shot upon David's elimination when he was about to kiss his partner)

[chad_74]

ask yourself why is matthew mitchem not rolling in money like other gold medalists?
I dont think he even got an uncle tobys endorsement.

[JarrodJ]

Ask yourself how Matthew Mitchem is involved with My Kitchen Rules and then refer yourself to my response to your previous post.

[JarrodJ]

Also look at this list of Australian Olympic gold medalists and tell me which ones you know are rolling in millions and which ones aren't.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Olympic_gold_medalists_for_Australia

Edited to add: I am not saying there is no discrimination in Australia towards LGBT people. But just because An LGBT person doesn't get everything they want, it doesn't mean homophobia was at play.

[chad_74]

jarrod luv gay people are not marketable to promote products or companies.
Of course these shows are rigged its about the winners reinforcing the supermarkets /sponsors image.

[crazzymikey]

so over these stupid arguements on here people listen to yourselves! lol

[chad_74]

another note of interest is the chairmain of coles and westfarmers,

[JarrodJ]

jarrod luv gay people are not marketable to promote products or companies.

Hold you are are avoiding an argument that you made. You asked me how Matthew Mitchem wasnt rolling in millions the way other Olympic gold medalists are.
my response is that very few of them are.

Why do you think all the other straight Olympic gold medalists aren't rolling in millions?

You seem to think that just cos someone is gay, they are entitled to everything they want, and anything less is homophobia.

If MKR were going to rig the show for marketability they would have made those two Italian women the winners, they were clearly fan favourites. Likewise, if Masterchef were going to rig the show for marketability last year, Marian would have easily won.

You aren't really making very good arguments to back up your claims. Remember, Kane didn't "lose", he came 2nd. He came 2nd in a finale which reached over 2 million Aussie viewers.

[Gloomis666]

I think you're talking about Country boy David and the other guy Michael? Where they used trick editing to make it look like they were kissing?

It was that skinny gay guy from the gold coast, well he was getting off with that short quiet wog guy in the shower.
There was one episode where big brother questioned him about kissing somone and he admitted to it.

After that the whole thing was silenced.

It was easy to miss as it was only mentioned once.

[JarrodJ]

I don't remember this.
Although the point that it was "buried" is kind of moot considering it was mentioned/shown at all.

[Gloomis666]

Nonsense!! that show was very liberal with almost no censorship

lol! where you a big fan?

[Gloomis666]

I don't remember this.

was probably shown then dropped, would happen in reality shows.
what is moot?

[mark_]

(maybe)

[JarrodJ]

was probably shown then dropped, would happen in reality shows.
what is moot?

I mean the point that "The Big Brother producers covered up this gay thing" is moot due to the fact that it actually was shown on TV.

For this to have happened, and then someone be called to the diary room to be questioned about it would involve quite a bit of production work so if there was some "cover-up" it certainly couldn't have happened live, or didn't happen at all.

I don't doubt anyone's sincerity in relaying this story, but the mind and memory can play tricks on people.

If it aired, there would be footage of it out there and someone would have more details than the vague things offered in this thread.

Also, if it aired, it would probably have been a bigger media stir than this video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ti1cmtbZmlc

[Gloomis666]

yes he was called to the diary room.
never seen that bit, I actually havnt watched it in a while.

must be not so homophobic these days.

[ernesto_1]

the cook book is out friday bitches. and its 12.95. buy it!

[JarrodJ]

yes he was called to the diary room.

The video I posted was quite homophobic in context because nothing actually happened between those two. One was gay, the other was just oddly friendly, and those two were just playing around.
They showed it on TV that way to imply that there was some gay stuff happening and to sort of make fun of the non-gay one.

yeah but doubt they was going to televise what was goin down after that kiss...

there was a non gay one?

Im not so gay in that respect, though he looked preety much initiating the kiss so dunno..

[JarrodJ]

As I think I mentioned earlier, that kiss wasnt a real kiss. It was them just mucking around.

[Gloomis666]

looked real to me, what is a real kiss ?

[JarrodJ]

looked real to me, what is a real kiss ?

It looked real, but it wasn't. I'm not sure which of these videos clear things up but in one of them, the short haired dude tries to clear it up.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ti1cmtbZmlc
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H11qJhfPU1Q

The thing is, the "straight" guy was a bit of an instigator that series and kinda came off quite closeted. Once when asked (but the gay guy in the video) if he was "a homo" h said "well, Im a homosapien.. so i'm a kind of a homo... im a kind of a homo.."
Totally the kinda answer I would imagine my 18 year old self giving, and his attitude totally reminds me of my closeted self (clinging to gay guys), but that's neither here nor there.

[Gloomis666]

It was most probably scripted

[Gloomis666]

the cook book is out friday bitches. and its 12.95. buy it!
bugger that, I want an African cookbook, went into an African food store the other day and there was all these beans and grains and stuff I had never even seen, they guy asked me what I would like and I said I wouldn't know how to cook any of it.

[badamj2000]

Mark is a wizz in the kitchen

[chad_74]

Jarrod do you think matthew mitchem is treated the same as other olympic gold winners?
do you not think if he was a rug muncher he would be our nations poster boy?
As to your previous question Keiren perkins ian thorpe, grant hackett ...
kane and lee I agree did not lose even one chef called them superstars of the kitchen ,but they lost out on the $100,000......If anything it could have been a draw the two girls effort was not anywhere as good as their semi-final but perhaps they got points for the hissy fit.

[JarrodJ]

Dude, a gold medal isn't a free ticket to guaranteed millions. I could name 20 gold medal winners that made a lot of money, but I could name 100 that didn't.

Matthew Mitcham, does have sponsorship by the way, and "financial support from Tesltra". But I'm sure you knew that.

I agree that gay people aren't easily marketed (except the ones I mentioned earlier..) But I think what is holding Matthew Mitcham, back is the fact that he's a diver. I can't name a single diver throughout history, let alone a gold medal winner, let alone an Australian. I've had to look up Matthew Mitcham's name a handful of times because I find it even hard to remember him.

I have given you ample evidence of prominent gays in our media, including reality shows. I feel that you aren't even taking in what I've said and I'm talking to a brick wall.

Once again, I am not saying that gays aren't discriminated against in general, I am not saying that we don't deserve full equality in all areas. I am gay.
But just because Kane came 2nd, and Mitch Matthew Mitcham *ONLY* got sponsorship form an underwear company anbd financial support from TELSTRA, it does not mean it was because he was gay.

For the record, here is a list of medal winners from 2008 (as Matthew was), several of these people broke world records and there is no sponsorship information for them to speak of. Matthew Mitcham has more sponsorship than most of these people.

[leverarchfile]

I could never make up my ind whether I would fuck Kane or not...

[ernesto_1]

i am watching this show for the first time. it is the most drama queen show ever. "if you can cook this you'd be a hero"...


"this is what we want to do for the rest of our lives"

im like WTF... ofcourse u're gonna have to cook for the rest of ur lives. everyone has to eventually. WTF

[ernesto_1]

the only guy i would fuck is the french chef. wot a hunk + sexy accent. it makes me want to date a hot french chef. LOL

[ernesto_1]

manus accent is so sexy but annoying

[JarrodJ]

"this is what we want to do for the rest of our lives"

im like WTF... ofcourse u're gonna have to cook for the rest of ur lives. everyone has to eventually. WTF

LOL!

I agree with you about Manu also. French accent is #1 for me!

[Gloomis666]

The french are so up themselves.

[JarrodJ]

The french are so up themselves.

I have seen these stereotype so often on American TV. I went to France and loved EVERYONE I came in contact with. Everyone was so nice and friendly and it took about half a day for me to fall in love with them all.

That's just my story though.

[Gloomis666]

hmmm, I think its just the ones one tv hey.

[JarrodJ]

haha yeah, and part of me thinks the reason that Americans think they are all stuck up is because Americans will roll in to France and act like they own the joint, thus getting the rude treatment. I kinda saw this happen also.

[ernesto_1]

im reallty into pumpkin atm . so sweet n munchy

[Gloomis666]

haha yeah, and part of me thinks the reason that Americans think they are all stuck up is because Americans will roll in to France and act like they own the joint, thus getting the rude treatment. I kinda saw this happen also.

Wow you been to France, I havn't even been to Victoria.

[JarrodJ]

im reallty into pumpkin atm . so sweet n munchy

huh?? lol

[Gloomis666]

im reallty into pumpkin atm . so sweet n munchy

I hate trying to peel them, I always cut off the skin with most the pumkin on it.

[JarrodJ]

And Gloomis666, I've been overseas once and I'm a full 24 years old. Not that impressive!

Unless you were being sarcastic and I missed something lol

[Gloomis666]

nope I was serious.
My sarcasm is more sarcastic than that.

[JarrodJ]

lol sometimes it's hard to tell online, using only text. Going there again in 6.5 weeks! haha

[ernesto_1]

im eating and watching home and away and browsing same same

[Gloomis666]

how are you watching home and away it 10 pm?
unless of course you taped it.
Not sure why somone would want to tape it though.

[Gloomis666]

lol sometimes it's hard to tell online, using only text. Going there again in 6.5 weeks! haha
I'm over Brisbane.

[ernesto_1]

im watching it online. i have access to thousands of shows on ten, seven and nine. its grest!

[Gloomis666]

my computer overheats if I watch to much video.
I have to jerk off fairly quickly.

[ernesto_1]

ooo u animal

[Gloomis666]

seems Jarrod has fucked off..
seems we made this thread a chat room.

[ernesto_1]

wot did the losers get? zilch?

[Gloomis666]

I actually have not really watched the show much, it's just background noise while Im on the computer or cooking.

[JarrodJ]

I didn't fuck off, just stopped getting emails alerting me to activity in this thread.
Seems y'all have fucked off.

I dont mind a chat room thread.

[chad_74]

jarrod a gay with no real talent with their only claim to fame is by being gay is not comparable to matthew mitchem.

[JarrodJ]

jarrod a gay with no real talent with their only claim to fame is by being gay is not comparable to matthew mitchem.

You;re the one that compared the two of them, not me.

[chad_74]

which two?

[JarrodJ]

MKR's Kane and Matthew Mitcham.

You're the one that brought Mitcham in to the convo, and then just now asked me to compare them.
I have brought up the fact that nont only does he have sponsorship, and also dozens of gold medalists that don't.

I have mentioned several reality show contestants that are gay and have done VERY well for themselves. (Kane himself coming in SECOND place). Not to menon the TV/radio personalities that are gay and it's not big deal.

[chad_74]

can you compare a big brother contestant to a cooking program contestant?

[JarrodJ]

I didn't think I did?

You're the one that started talking about gays being treated bad in the media. I simply brought up many examples of how they did quite well.

[Gloomis666]

I think the best competition for this show should be that they have to make a peice of "Ghost shark" taste good, I bought some at woolies yesterday and cooked it up.
Most disgusting thing I have eaten (well attempted to eat) yet..
no wonder flathead is $40.00 a kilo.

[ernesto_1]

how exotic

[Gloomis666]

woolies have such a disgusting selection of fish up here.

the only thing really tasty is salmon @ $33.00 a kg I hardly buy it.
The rest is dodge.

The fish markets are the best but even they are crap, due to global warming ect ..

[chad_74]

fish markets are crap because we export our good stuff then import the crap from dodgy countries with lacking health regulations...

[ernesto_1]

how come fish is so expenisve now? i dun cook so i wouldnt know..

[Gloomis666]

overfishing is the main reason.
not so many fish as there used to be.

[ernesto_1]

lets all eat horse

[Gloomis666]

hmm.. too big

[ernesto_1]

the days of eating real food may be over. we all all be dispensing gunk from a slushie machine and dressed in potato sacks soon

[Gloomis666]

I dunno, in Brisbane it seems only white people shop at coles and woolworths, other folk utilise markets and whole foods stores.

Fuck it's 12:15 I have to go to bed, gnite.
