ghcheese Every show has some guy who feels bad about something from his past so he lets the restaurant go. Then after showing us what is wrong Gordon later has a one on one heart felt talk so everyone feels happy. Then everyone does what they are suppose to do and things run better. Totally GAY! I want to see a Kitchen Nightmares. Not this let's feel better crap. There was another chef who had a show like Kitchen Nightmares and he did the same thing. I want to see them work the kitchen. Not go you a psychologist. I'm done watching this show. Gordon is loosing his touch.

sacongo The original Kitchen Nightmares was awesome why change the formula when you had something that worked so good viewers wanted more. When he would inspect the kitchens and rip into the owners/chef was one of the best parts of the show it's now missing. Adding a 24-hour clock trying to make it more exciting is not helping it made it worst. Seems rushed like Gordon has lost his passion in redoing restaurants. They need to bring back more of the original format.

craignewman-90877 Turned off after 5 minutes due to the swearing being cut out (the only thing entertaining about GR shows) being British we don't edit swearing in our shows in case it hurts overly sensitive people, if you don't like it? Switch over . If this was broadcast on British TV (as his other shows usually are) then it would be uncut. I find it pathetic that Americans are happy with extreme violence in shows but say the F word and it's a no no. Just look at the walking dead.

farhadbhamjee I didnt think it was too bad, scripted and rushed but good nevertheless. I feel like there was an element missing however. Maybe that element will reveal itself in later episodes.
