Anyone watching this? I think it's on Monday nights on Fox. The show's premise is basically that twelve contestants work in a kitchen with Gordon Ramsay (a famous chef from England). Each week one person gets kicked off by Gordon, and the winner will get his own restaurant. The show's really a lot of fun, because Ramsay is so abraisive. If you've ever seen the BBC Comedy "Chef!" back in the 90s, this guy is a real-life version of Gareth Blackstock. He's insultingly rude to the contestants, and even to customers who come and bother him. The kitchen "drama" is done pretty nicely -- they really do a great job of showing how hectic working in a kitchen like this can be. I started watching after someone told me it was good -- downloaded all the eps and watched them yesterday. It's really a good show, and a great way to bridge the summer gap with a decent reality show in between Apprentice 3 and 4. It's almost like "The Apprentice" in the kitchen. Anyone else watching?
I've watched a little of it. That dude seems a little too overboard for me. He makes Idol's Simon look like a p***y.
His outbursts are toooo exaggerated. You can totally tell his anger isn't legit and is just for the show. At least with Simon, it looks real.
