Show Info
World-renowned chef Gordon Ramsay is back for a fifth course of the sizzling unscripted series HELL'S KITCHEN. The show follows wannabe chefs as they slice and dice their way through each episode, vying for Ramsay's attention in hopes of winning a life-changing culinary prize.

The intensity heats up each week as the ambitious hopefuls try to prove they have what it takes. Ramsay weeds out the bad apples, keeping only those who possess the right combination of ingredients to achieve success. Both his sharp tongue and the contestants' inexperience are often a recipe for disaster in this pressure-cooker environment. Only one thing is certain: If the contestants can't stand the heat, they'll have to get out of HELL'S KITCHEN.

Season Four of HELL'S KITCHEN, in which Christina Machamer won the coveted title a senior chef position at Gordon Ramsay at The London West Hollywood, finished as the highest-rated season in the show's history.

HELL'S KITCHEN is a Granada America production in association with A. Smith & Co. Arthur Smith and Kent Weed serve as executive producers.

Hell yeah--I mentioned this in the "24" thread the other day. I love this show, although I expect it to be the last season.
 
She looks ready for business:

I bet her famous "Happy Ending" dessert is to die for :D
 
Wasn't Christina supposed to win an executive chef position at Gordon's new restaurant? Or is "senior chef" the same thing?

I didn't think she was cut out to earn that title in such a quick span of time anyway....
 
I used to watch it religiously.

Season 4 killed it for me. It's the exact same stuff every freaking season...

And that announcer.. god. It's such annoying voice-overs.
 
if the winner's a dude, its this guy:

or this guy

If it's a chick, it's this gal:

or this gal:

The rest aren't marketable enough.


I'd say those are the final 4.
 
Bumping for Wednesday GAF.

Don't forget that this is tomorrow!
 
I be on that shit thursday fo sho!
Can't wait for these guys to be verbally abused by Satan himself, Gordon Ramsay.:lol :lol :lol
 
Hmm...It's an odd-numbered season, so it'll be a guy...

Either the one in the top right or the bottom left.

Also, here's to a new season...one without Jen! :D
 
Didn't this use to air uncensored at late night on food network? Does it still (now that I get food network in HD as well as Fox, so I could watch either, but prefer the unbeeped)?
 
Gonna check this out tonight while The Office and 30 Rock are reruns. I always like the first episode the best anyway when all the crappy people just get run over and abused by The Ram. :D

The best part of the first episode is when he has them cook their signature dish. They always try something really fancy despite Ramsay liking simplistic things. I don't think anyone will top Matt from last season with his Exotic Tartar. Venison, diver scallops, caviar, quail egg, and white chocolate.
 
I never thought I'd say this. I wish they used real chefs - I mean, every season = the idiots getting weeded off first, then you get to the real chefs. I mean, there really is just 2-3 contestants.

Ramsay's said that if he got his way that there'd only be legitimate chefs. But he understands that there needs to be a lot of entertainment so he goes along with it.

That's why you should watch Top Chef.
 
I had a really long post about Hell's Kitchen, but my computer crashed. The gist is, none of the contestants are good chefs, and most of them aren't even chefs. Either shoemaker cooks, home cooks, or over the hill have-beens or never-weres for whom this is a last chance to succeed in the culinary industry. This show is not about chefs anyway, it is about cooking on the line. The grind. No self-respecting successful chef would go back to that after putting in years of toil to finally tell others what to do.
