New Kitchen Nightmares Fan

[Seraph]

After the advice of several people in the CS chat yesterday, finally decided to try and watch the show. Turns out, hubby's been watching it at work for the past couple months, so he was all excited to introduce me to it.

I'd never heard of Gordon Ramsey before, honestly thought it was the same guy from Doorknock Dinners yeaaars ago, but I see that he's a rather foul-mouthed dude and not the lovable guy from the other show.

Anyways, watched the episode with Peter's last night, and WOW. Loved it, even if I was cringing because it was like watching vids of my family reunion.

You can go to www.fox.com and watch nearly 4 whole seasons of it.

Not that I do that or anything.

Anyone who believes that can send me all their unmarked currency care of GotCher$$$.scam.

I just like to have something running in the background while I work.

Used to be hoarders but then I starting throwing everything away.

Personally I prefer the UK ones more than the fox produced ones. They show Ramsey as a man who's passionate about cooking and wants to see people succeed. The fox ones show him as a bile filled hateful man.

Sure, seeing him have a yelling fit is fun in the short term, but seeing him genuinely excited about helping a restaurant be successful is far more entertaining in my opinion.

Hulu.com has quite a few of the shows up.

You see the same difference between the US and UK Hell's Kitchen series.

I discovered Gordon Ramsay about a year ago and his shows are the only cooking related shows I'll watch.

Speaking of the UK Hell's Kitchen series, where can one find those online? I've been looking for ages, and I'm pretty darn sure that Hulu doesn't have it!

Edit: *foot in mouth* Netflix has 'em!

Yarr, we're watching the US version via Hulu. The UK one is a bit difficult for us to understand half the time. I mean, just from the one clip I saw, they were getting so heated I couldn't figure out what they were saying at ALL.

[Kheldarson]

But that's half the fun!

I like the UK show because they don't edit out him being nice. Or do the whole "individual interview" thing that's prevalent on reality TV anymore here.

Gordon Ramsey targets his f-bombs for effect.

I love that show, and I was also turned onto it in the chat.

If possible, look out for 2 KN:UK episodes; one is featuring an American lady trying to run a "soul food" restaurant in London, and another featuring a special snowflake who got a restaurant in Paris as a present from her rich daddy. Both episodes should be easy to decipher re: language, and very epic indeed.

Mama Cheri's Soul Shack! I loved that episode!

We still will be watching the Uk episodes, I just wanna see if I can find them subtitled someplace for my brain's ease. If not, oh well! XD
