Last night, as I was watching the Next Iron Chef contestants make airplane food, I couldn't help but think of the huge difference between these contestants and those on Top Chef, Hell's Kitchen, or the Next Food Network Star. (Given that the challenge was similar to one on Top Chef, it was easy to make comparisons.) I don't understand why recreating airplane food can define a chef's worth, but if I have to watch, I prefer to watch a master shine in his or her craft than see a bubbling, everyday personality toddle around the kitchen. How about you?

The second season of Masters, which was the highest-rated first season competition series in Bravo history, will see the return of Gael Greene, James Oseland, and Jay Rayner as critics, as well as bubbly (and slightly bubbleheaded) host Kelly Choi.
