Kitchen Nightmares!!

This is one of the best shows on TV. First off, you get Gordon Ramsay…that’s going to make good TV in and of itself. But when you throw in his ego versus the ego of the restaurant owner he’s there to help–it’s a train wreck that you just can’t help but watch.
Let’s face it, this man knows his stuff! I’m married to a Chef, and honestly, he knows just as much as this guy…about everything having to do with the food industry. My Chef is amazing to watch as well, but the one difference…he doesn’t yell…EVER! So there’s a nice contrast!
There is a DVD out of just Kitchen Nightmare episodes. I’ve Tivo’d every episode, so I don’t really need it, but honestly, I love this guy!

I didn’t watch him for quite awhile because of all the yelling and swearing. Even now I wonder how those people are crazy enough to want to be on the reality TV contest show with him. Seems odd to intentionally go there and be yelled at, bullied and such until you cry. I watch both Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares now. It’s funny to see that the swearing is bleeped on the shows in the US but not on those in the UK.
Still think I liked the one on the BBC better, but I’ll watch any show he makes. Ramsay rules!
I agree the BBC series is far better, they really ‘butchered’ the USA series and made it more about the weekly villain then the restaurant.
We love Gordon Ramsay! I know people who don’t watch him because of the yelling, but I think most of it’s for show. I would never submit myself to his show, knowing all the yelling would take place, but it’s fun to watch and he’s really good.
