I wish they'd left the focus on Gordon cooking instead of doing painfully forced sketches. They overloaded it with unnecessary celebrities. Also, I was kinda bummed to see that he was recycling recipes from the British show -- come on!! Anyway, I'm a Gordon fan and I hope he and/or his manager gave the network hell for this and that they revamp it to make it less excruciating. I think the concept is great, but the execution was terrible. By the way, if you haven't looked up Gordon Ramsay spoofs on youtube, you're missing out! :) I’m a huge Gordon Ramsay fan and have watched all of the British Cookalongs (thanks youtube!) and was really, really disappointed in this show.

They all went baaa, oink and moo--- and he took them to the slaughter with this show. Terrible crappy show.

Ramsay didn't figure out people aren't going to cook alongside him when he tested the concept on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. While I appreciate Ramsay has skills, he's simply over-reaching with this show. It's frantic, awkward, clumsy, and seems more like a video game.... And you can't help but think there is a finished version of the featured dish at hand for the people that fail it. This show is an unqualified train wreck.

WRONG !! This was the worst of the worst. After three minutes of it, I couldn't find the remote fast enough to shut the darn thing off, rewind and try to erase it from my mind forever. Ramsay needs to stay away from people - he is toxic and totally lacks talent as an entertainer. I taped this show, thinking it would be good late night entertainment for me. WRONG !!
