First of all, let me just say that Top Chef is a great show. Even though I am not a cook, it is fascinating to watch the behind the scenes. And co-hosts Padma Lakshmi and Tom Colicchio were just nominated for an Emmy. The new season is premiering next month and should be cool to see the competitors dueling it out in the Las Vegas setting.

Now, for the news. It appears that Padma is in talks to star in her own sitcom. Should be interesting to see how this develops.
