Michael Nordine Slant Magazine Hell's Kitchen may be junk-food TV, but it's also a fascinating spectator sport. Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 29, 2019 Full Review Adam Markovitz Entertainment Weekly The season premiere [was] an amuse bouche to prep our palettes for the craziness to come. Mar 28, 2019 Full Review Andy Dehnart Reality Blurred Anyway, although an actual chef won, I'm pretty much done with the show, which hasn't exactly gotten worse or changed, but that's the problem. It's the same-old, same-old. Mar 28, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Regal R 90/100 - the fact that critics gave this show 36% and cry about ramsay being "hostile" is genuinely sad and pathetic. I feel bad for them because they'll never be able to appreciate or do anything of value in life. This show is great. Almost everything Ramsay does is great. It's always funny, even though its predictable it makes for easily digestible comfort food (pun intended). I like knowing Ramsays about to rip someone a new one when they talk back. I also like his softer side which you can see in jr chef. thats how you know his "character" or persona is just that, and he's not just a rude malicious person. he's clearly just passionate about his work and a great entertainer.
