I've watched a few episodes of Kitchen Nightmares and they were OK but the premise got old pretty quickly. There are only so many versions of "My restaurant is failing, I'm on the verge of bankruptcy, and my food sucks but I still know better than the successful restaurateur with 3 Michelin stars so fuck him!" they can really do.

F Word is good but I have to be in the mood to learn about food in order to watch it.

Exactly YES

Is this the one thats driving the chef's to commit suicide?

F Word is a good mix of challenges and learning about food, you always have the satisfy the customer contest and then Ramsey vs a Celebrity. I prefer F Word. I like when he does crazy shit like get animals and raise them on beer in his backyard to make them taste better.

Ever try to go to a taping? Is it open when the show isn't going on?

It's on tonight.

I've watched it a couple of times, but find it annoyingly formulaic. you know; like every other reality show out there.

Every time I see a commercial of Ramsay yelling at some wannabe chef I remember the picture that his mentor, Marco Pierre White, published of him crying in a corner when he was being mentored by White.

Damn. I can't find a copy of the picture anywhere.

I watch it because I enjoy cooking and I enjoy watching him belittle the people when they do stupid shit.

I think he is talking about the Hells Kitchen area of NYC not the Hells Kitchen restaurant in LA.

I like Gordon Ramsay a lot.
