I've enjoyed many of Ramsay's shows over the years. He's one of the few celebrity chefs who can actually cook and his personality has spiced up more than one such show.
This however, was a disaster. There's no other way to put it. Totally contrived without an ounce of authenticity to it, the show jumps all over the place without continuity or forethought. By the end of a show, I'm not invested in the dish, the recipes, the contestants, their stories, the outcome of the challenge, or the silly little celebrity cook-off challenge that is interjected for no apparent purpose.
Ramsay has become a gold mine for Fox, and they're doing to him what networks do every time they create a new "hit" show. They completely overexpose both the original show's format and the individuals who helped it get off the ground.
I would rather be forced to sit through an episode of Joanie Loves Chachi. Universally rated as one of the worst shows of all time, you should google and watch the show's intro to re-calibrate your low water mark and remind you just how bad TV can be. Candidly, The F Word isn't much better.
