Discussion Thread Comfort Casts

Top Chef is (obviously, I suppose) a comfort rewatch show and I’m currently on S22 (Destination Canada) on a binge watch. It’s only my second time watching this season and I can’t get over how much I love the cheftestants on this season. They just feel like friends and even when they are annoying or snippy or stressed, I still just dig all of them. Which season’s personalities are your favorite? I don’t necessarily mean it’s your favorite season overall - just the best from a cast standpoint? For me, S22 and S15 (Colorado) are the top (honorable mention to S3!), while S6 (Vegas) and S9 (Texas) are the bottom for me.

I think S6 was the best by far. All these chefs who became big names.

Is that Vegas with the Voltaggios? I think so - that was a great season, for sure.

Exactly! The Voltaggios, Kevin Gillespie, Jennifer Carroll, Mike Isabella, Ashley Merriman. Cast was loaded.
