Julie didn't come on Survivor: Redemption Island to make friends or become famous. She came on for something much more than that - the chance at a million dollars, which would save her home from being foreclosed on.

There's lot of cheese in the Top Chef kitchen this week - and I'm not referring to the chefs' personalities. (Thanks. I'll be here all week.)
For their Quickfire Challenge, the chefs must create a masterful cheese dish - in 12 minutes. I love that they've really upped the ante with these challenges, especially in terms of time allotted.
Norbert from the Beverly Hills Cheese Shop is guest judging. As you might expect, he is quite opinionated about
