'Rocco's Dinner Party' Recap: The Loser Is Actually the Winner
. Quick facts: She's loud, cooks with love, has no real filter, and oh, did I mention she's uber-loud?Over the course of the episode, Stone worked toward impressing Celebrihottie Rocco DiSpirito . Although her dishes may not have looked the best (read: sloppy messes), Rocco admitted he was astonished with her flavors. And in the head-to-head battle with the other finalist, Brooklyn chef Vanessa Cantave , she surely came out of the gate packing a punch:
"The other chefs, they're gonna see me as this housewife with five kids who doesn't know what the heck she's doing. But let me tell ya something -- they should be scared because they don't know what I'm capable of. No one knows what I'm capable of." :
When it comes to fancy kitchen gadgets:
"I just want my old Cuisinart, ya know?"
When Rocco asks if she can calm down for his guests on the big night:
"Yes, I do things silently for the higher good of others."
When it came to how she wanted her room designed, she had plenty of opinions:
"[I want it to look] romantic but not in the lover-y kind of way ... woman's bedroom-y, soft, like when you squeeze a mushy a**. Decadent ... and almost gluttonous but not in a Henry VIII turkey leg sort of way. And I want fruits and things that look succulent, like a fat guy nude or something and a fat chunky lady on the wall."
Her goal for her guests, which included Julie & Julia author Julie Powell and comedian Michael Ian Black:
"I'm gonna feed people, and I wanna make them feel good."
When Vanessa refused to taste her food:
"When you refuse a Sicilian's food, it's like spitting in her eye. It's just rude."
I just love every ounce of her outrageous nature, even if her voice is borderline Fran Drescher. The kicker: The way she talks about food, you can tell she has such love for her craft. Unfortunately for Nat, however, love wasn't enough to take home the win. On her departure:
"I feel like 'Oh god looossseeeerrrrr.' I'm disappointed but I still think that I did a good job and held my own. I made a magnificent meal for Rocco DiSpirito and his six celebrity guests. I am a winner.

Credit 'wear' Credit is Due – Fran Drescher « ActSensuous' Blog
UPDATE – Wednesday June 22:
Apparently, the joke’s on me. Neither during last week’s pilot, nor in tonight’s second episode of the new comedy, “ Happily Divorced ,” has Fran Drescher worn pantyhose – or even a dress for that matter.
I will say that I like the show. It is upbeat and funny, and the cast includes veteran comedic actors who deliver every line, expression and gesture with impeccable timing.
When I wrote this post last week before watching the pilot, I didn’t realize that Fran’s husband/ex-husband is played by John Michael Higgins, who is very funny. I really liked him as the psychiatrist in Ally McBeal.
So far, “I’m not (head tilt) comfortable …” with Fran or whomever is dressing her for “Happily Divorced.”
I don’t understand how the costume designer for this show can miss the mark on selling what Fran is famous for. If this person is going to continue to dress her in slacks and jeans, or maybe worse, dresses and skirts without pantyhose, I will stop watching.
Nevertheless, I think Fran still deserves credit “wear” credit is due for being such an ambassador for pantyhose during the early years of her career, and that ‘s really what this post is about.
What do you think? Does this change anything? Please take the poll at the end of this post.
Now, here’s what I wrote last Wednesday:
Tonight marks the debut of actress Fran Drescher ’s latest TV project, Happily Divorced , premiering at 10:30 p.m. EST on TV Land (channel 304 on DirecTV), with a second showing directly afterward at 11 p.m.
The storyline features Drescher as Los Angeles florist Fran (naturally) adjusting to the world of dating after learning that her realtor husband of 18 years, Peter, is gay. The comedy is set around Fran juggling new relationships, while still living under the same roof as her ex-husband.
Apparently, Fran is told by Peter in the opening scene that he has finally realized that he is gay. Then, we fast forward six months and find that, while Fran and Peter are divorced, out of financial necessity, they are forced to continue sharing a house together.
I decided to write this post tonight before the show airs. I’m doing this for two reasons: First, I’m not a film critic, and that’s not what this blog is about; second, I don’t care if the show is any good or not. I like Fran Drescher because she’s funny, she’s beautiful, and more than anything else because she has always been a true pantyhose ambasador.
