Rachael Ray did NOT deserve to win... Mrs. de Laurentiis would have blown her out of the water had it not been for Mario Batali doing the majority of the work.
Giada is clearly superior in her culinary skills and actually cooked in this contest. Plus the cocktails to the judges thing was clearly a bribe. I call shennanigans!
I believe that, had the two ladies battled alone, abided by the Kitchen Staduim rules and had unbiased judges, the results would have been much, much different. Give these ladies a FAIR match!
That show was a sham. At this point, the Food Network is willing to shove their tongues up Rachael Ray's butt if she asked them to. Giada got so ripped off.
Rematch indeed. Mario carried the team that won. I'd like to see Racheal one on one with Giada, Ina or even Paula. All three of those would wipe the floor with RR!
How the hell did Ray/Batali win?!!Did you hear what the tasters said about each dish!!?? I suggest that you REWATCH the match!!DO ANOTHER REMATCH GIADA/FLAY GOT RIPPED OFF!!!
It's pathetic that Racheal Ray is even considered in the same league with Nigella, Giada, and Ina Garten...anyone can open a can of beans...we want a rematch!
Giada definitely deserves a rematch-there was no way in HELL that moron Rachael Ray could've won without a lot of help from her, AHEM, so-called friends.
I'm very sad at what is considered 'talent' or 'celebrity' in this country. We are truly going down the toilet and I just wonder what people in other countries think when they see people like Rachael Ray,I Love New York, The Hogan Family, Dog and his bunch etc. glorified by us. I'm embarrassed!!!
