WOW - I was shocked - what a fix!! - I liked Aaron but he was definitely not the best. I think the judges knew a long time ago who they were going to pick and that's the reason they helped Aaron come up with the "Big Daddy" name for the demo. That's also the reason they kept all 3 after the Las Vegas show because he definitely lost to the other two. They couldn't keep him and get rid of one of the others. He seems like a nice guy but his English is horrendous and I kept wanting him to dump the cheap earrings. I can't imagine I would watch his show. It was definitely a fix. I don't watch the FN very much anymore - I used to watch it all the time. It just doesn't seem to be about "cooking" as much as it used to.
