In my book nothing will ever be worse than season 9. The format they used - pairing HG's up - was terrible, and the HG's themselves were the biggest collection of vomitous human beings ever assembled - JMO. In reference to Elissa quitting I doubt it will happen, Helen has already declared that she will guilt Elissa by telling her "do you want your son to see you as a quitter?" I'm pretty sure Helen will get her way if she pulls that card on Elissa, and Elissa will stay.
