Since CBS doesn’t want us to see "Kid Nation" in advance, I guess I’ll just have to declare Kitchen Nightmares the best new reality show of the fall.

Mary Poppins it ain't--which is fine because the snooty broad couldn't begin to handle this. [21 Sep 2007, p.74]

Kitchen Nightmares is shockingly good storytelling and hilarious. This may be the most compelling show of the new season
70
The subtext of Kitchen Nightmares is that ordinary middle-class business owners need brash and brilliant moguls to save them from a sad reliance on their own mediocrity. It is an ugly message that Mr. Ramsay makes undeniably hypnotic.

It is loud and manipulative and ugly to behold, but it isn't dull.

Kitchen Nightmares pushes all of the proper emotional buttons to draw we viewers in. But we're never for a moment able to suspend the notion that we, the audience, are being played.

Leave it to Fox to take something the Brits did pretty well and muck it up.

I love every show with Gordon Ramsay. I love his brilliance, jokes, personality and his natural social skills. Gordon is down to earth and he never acts pompous despite being a world class famous chef from the UK. I recommend Season 2 Ep 1 La Lanterna, Season 3 Ep 4 Morgan's, Season 4 Ep 5 The Granary, Season 5 Ep 1 Runaway girl and Season 5 Ep 2 Dovecoate.
