  1. Is this worth remembering to tune in?

    Depends on what type of TV you like. It's pretty much like most reality
    stuff (that being said, I liked it...I don't watch American Idol or
    really most of that) I don't remember there really being recipes to
    learn from it. There is all of the normal stuff you see in reality
    shows - challenges, eliminations, back-stabbing, and Gordon Ramsey
    cracks me up.

    I am looking forward to seeing it - thanks for the reminder of when it
    is airing!

    The worst [censored] I have ever seen! You would be way better at that job than
    that British chef. Is there such a thing as a British chef? <G>

    Maybe Sheldon could be one of the contestants, I daresay (from reading
    Sheldon's posts) he'd give Ramsay a run for his money!

    Funny, I've always wondered if there were any American chefs apart from
    Alice Waters? I mean Anthony Bourdain is more of a comedian, and James
    Beard's dead. Is there anybody you would take seriously? I mean,
    Wolfgang Puck, oh dea,r oh dear...

    I reckon Ramsey would be too mild mannered for Sheldon You know he used
    to be a professional footballer? Tell you what, though, he's got a good
    business head, I've seen him calculating profit margins off the top of
    his head on another show, and it was deeply impressive.

    Jay is off my radar these days. Keller, on the other hand, is a man

    Fox TV has a cooking show? That's a nightmare all by itself.

    Hell's Kitchen is decent. I also enjoy Kitchen Nightmares, which I just
    say a new series will be running on BBC America starting soon.

    That is probably a more appropriate venue for it than the Food channel. A
    half dozen hour long episodes of a restaurant consultant who likes to swear
    a lot to demolish kitchen staff egos. It seemed to e on Food TV almost every
    time I switched to it, and it's one of the reasons that I dropped that
    channel.

    I enjoyed the first round and wondered where it went for a year. It's truly
    a test of who can handle it in a commercial kitchen and who can't, although
    I must say I've never worked in a restaurant with a chef who was quite that
    rude 🙂

    In the first series, they were forced to turn out excellent meals in a
    5-star restaurant that had just opened. If someone slacked or was
    incompetent, the others had to take up the slack. I found it highly
    entertaining and plan to tune in for this round.

    I think you're right. I haven't seen it on TFN either.

    Maybe I am the one that is confused.... Ramsey's Kitchen Disasters or
    something like that.

    I could be responsible for that confusion :-) Someone else had referred to
    Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares. It was (still is) on Food Network Canada. IMO,
    it was on far too often.

    It was interesting enough to see it once or twice, but there were a number
    of episodes and in each one he goes into a failing restaurant, usually run
    by someone who has no idea how to run a restaurant, and who have hired a
    cook who really doesn't know much about cooking or running a kitchen, and
    who is supposed to be supervising a crew who generally don't give a damn.
    He generally creates confrontations with the staff, runs them down,
    embarrasses them, swears a lot. It would make an interesting special, but
    the format gets tired very quickly. it is just as well there were only a
    few episodes, but they run them over and over and over.

    Thanks for the link, I like those video clips... but they don't like
    FF, even with the IE tab (so I gave up and used IE to view).
