"Top Chef" finale does a disservice to its incredibly talented and deserving winner

First off, of course: Spoilers abound, truly. What a peculiar ending to one of my favorite "Top Chef" seasons in a while ; I'd argue that the way the judges' feedback was shown and edited in this finale felt like it was building to a Dan win, while the season editing at large seemed to favor Danny initially, and then Savannah in the back half. He also responded to a tweet that said "Dan was the winner for me" by saying "I don't remember you at Judges table," which got a chuckle out of me. He also noted that judges "really disliked the tuna course" and said that he agreed with the second sentence of someone whose tweet read "Finally watched @BravoTopChef finale. Also, for me, the entire second half of the season was literally "The Savannah Show": I felt as though her sheer amount of screentime, her multitude of confessionals and her barrage of winner-adjacent quotes all would inevitably lead up to a victorious conclusion to her story, and I feel a bit robbed that ultimately, her finale performance was anything but.
