Simone has got to be the one going, right? Or at least one of the ones going? If not her then it's gotta be Packaged Food Jersey Dude from the blue team.

Gordon Ramsay is so loving inspiring and he is the best. I heard about him but didn't start watching him until a few weeks ago. I definitely prefer his UK series better than the US ones. Are any of the US Hell's Kitchen as good as the Uk series? They seem overly dramatic and try to force the drama. I think my favourite series has to be the Uk version of Kitchen Nightmares. Boiling Point was also really great.

From what I've seen on BBC America, UK HK is "Teach this random celebrity how to cook a certain thing decently well", where US HK is "Find the least competent people imaginable and  at them". Apples and oranges, really. Kitchen Nightmares, however, is largely the same. Second post has basically every episode from every show Ramsay's ever done if you're interested.

Sighence posted:Kitchen Nightmares, however, is largely the same. Wrongo. American Kitchen Nightmares is yelling, bad editing, more yelling, he pays for a total renovation of the restaurant, heartfelt crying. UK Kitchen Nightmares is a bit of yelling, but mostly is Ramsay sincerely trying to help a restaurant deal with its particular problem with solutions tailored to it.

Fair enough. There is a wide gap between the Campaign for Real Gravy and Amy's Baking Company. My point was the various Nightmares have the same theoretical goal of saving restaurants. Hell's Kitchens can't even say that.

I had a dream the other night my husband and I were on a new Gordon Ramsay cooking show where couples have to produce a meal with a main dish, side dish, and dessert while competing against other couples in a 2 hour time limit. We were making a standing rib roast. I was going to make something lamb related, but changed my mind.

I once had a really corny idea for a show called "'Til Dish Do We Part," where two chef couples would compete against each other, and then the winning couple would go head to head to see who was the better chef between them. I mean, if Bobby Flay can have five different shows about beating him in a cook-off, this could be worth a least a season order.

I just started watching this show this season, thanks entirely to this thread. I'm a cooking show veteran from other cooking competitions (mostly oldskool Iron Chef and Top Chef US/Canada) and I think first ep just overloaded me into "WTF?!" so much that I had to continue. 2nd episode, I hate-watched. The potato challenge for 3rd ep gave me reassurance that some of these assholes actually know what they're doing. I'm still extremely confused about why exactly I'm still watching. My husband thought I was an idiot too until he happened to walk by during the line, "Go back to the grocery store, bitch." Please understand: He works in a high-volume professional kitchen and while they aren't fine-dining he does aspire to a certain standard no matter what. As soon as he heard that levied as an insult (and, furthermore, saw that teams got to nominate their weakest links) he was so fuckin' on board with this shitshow. As a new viewer, I'm still very uh... like, are there Michelin-star chefs just lurking in this bullshit? Does the 2nd half of the show fall more into traditional cooking competition territory, or is it always fuckheads serving raw meat on a soup-risotto? I just can't cotton the show I've seen thus far with the same tenor of a late-season top chef, even on its worst outing.

It's really just a vehicle for 'angry ramsey screams at idiots'. Near the end you are usually left with a few competent chefs I guess. The first half of the season is my favorite.

The first half of a Hell's Kitchen season is the most entertaining because of all the loving bizarre people and hilarious gently caress-ups. The last three to four episodes are also usually pretty good because the really talented chefs are still around and they get a lot more attention since they're the only ones left. Unless there's a really good "villain" around, the late-middle of the season tends to drag for me.

Alright. I think I'm (very) content to continue hate-watching because I still have a sick softspot for skill-based reality TV. I might have to look into Ramsay's non-Kitchen Nightmares shows for what I'm really into, though; my favorite show from him has been Ramsay's Best Restaurant. I'm assuming Masterchef is what I really ought to be catching, or, just giving up!
