Top Chef Spoiler (if you missed last night's finale)

Call me a sap, but it was really touching to see the brothers be this season's last two standing on Top Chef. I kind of liked Bryan better all along, but having Michael win wasn't a disappointment, especially when he said at the end that having Bryan there beside him was more important than his win. Time for a big aaaaw ... even Tom Colicchio and the rest of the regular judges were moved.
Other random thoughts about this season:

• Did you see the graduation shot of Kevin and his mom? That beard really made the man.
• The only more noticeable transformation was what pregnancy has done for Padma's skimpy tops.
• In addition to being a sap, my tolerance for suspense is at a record low; I missed last night's show and didn't mind reading it on AOL this a.m. BEFORE watching it tonight.
• Kind of nice to have been able to see it at 6 when Bravo's daylong repeats (No, I didn't watch them all) ended with the finale. Sometimes it's taken me weeks to find the rerun.
• What's up with Project Runway? Is it over and I missed it?
• Was it just last season that Tom Colicchio reamed the contestants out for their foul mouths? This group obviously listened.
• I still wonder what the chefs think when they sit down to watch the shows and hear the insults others' spewed.
• I guess that's what next week's wrap-up show is all about.
