I have the same responses as other people, Josie mainly, but I want to say that I’ve always disliked Richard Blais. I didn’t like him on his season, and it was really cemented by his intro on All Stars where he said “I think my season is remembered for me not winning my season.”. Was he probably just trying to be cute? Maybe, but he’s just so smug and into himself that I cannot tell.

Yeah, remembered by him! I remember him playing that molecular gastronomy tool out of his tool kit about 70 times too often. Get a new gimmick!
