I know....YS picked him, but that's only because he only saw him in the final episode, and then only his promo.
I really thought Lisa would win, but she did have some negative moments. I don't think her show would make it, though. While Aaron's show idea is more like what the network is airing now...Note the Neely's.
If Adam had gone with the smoking concept, I think he would have won. The internet idea was pretty good, but too far off from what he was good at. I also noted this weekend that there is a new show called the "Food Detectives with Ted Allen". The concept is that he takes viewer questions (read emails) and investigates. Here's the rundown on the one I saw: "Can I really eat something off the floor if I pick it up in less than 5 seconds? How do I stop my mouth from burning after I've eaten spicy food? Is the baking soda in my fridge doing anything? Ted Allen and his culinary sleuths set out to prove the answers to these questions, once and for all!" There is a STRONG link to Popular Science as well. Good way to get kids to watch!
If you saw the finale, you should see a very strong connection to Adam's concept. HMMMMM?

I think you're right Denise - what we see of them and their talent is probably really skewered! Would love to be a judge throughout the entire process.
Adam has the credentials - he had a restaurant, but it failed and he is now a server, he's paid his dues.
Lisa I think came the farthest of any of them - whatever she was critiqued on, she really made the effort to overcome.
Aaron...I'll reserve judgement until next week when his show starts.
Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.
