djg32514 I am a big Gordon Ramsey fan. Love Kitchen Nightmares, UK f Word, MasterChef, even hotel hell. But this? Argh. So bad. I watched 2 episodes out of loyalty. The premise of two families cooking against one another in a restaurant environment with "celebrity" so- called foodies fell flat. I could care less what snoop dog likes. Sorry I find him repulsive and vulgar. Watching Gordon kiss up to him gave me shivers. Really disgusting. Bad enough celebrities constantly intrude into regular Americans lives with their opinions on everything from politics to fashion and social issues now I am supposed to care about what they think of food?? Not happening. The celebrity guests were lame and uninteresting, the competitors boring, and Gordon's prancing around the dining room uncomfortable. I tried to give it another chance and watched the second episode. More of the same. Boring, bland, and awkward. Didn't make it past 30 minutes. Decided to read a book instead. Sorry Gordon. Think the world of you but this show sucks.

PuckerFactor I was a big fan of the UK F Word series, it was informative and unpretentious and entertaining...it was all about the food. No surprises that the the US (Fox) version is the opposite. This show is disjointed and gimmicky and hard to stomach. I'm surprised that Ramsay can't realise what made the UK version work and apply it to the US version. I guess the only taste he has is in his mouth.

jsmerhej I have watched the UK version over and over. Launched in 2005 the show was 5 seasons and it was truly an entertaining show. After watching the US version, I have to say it's pretty close to the UK one with the following exceptions (hope you read this Gordon or the Producers)01 Gordon please put on your Chef Whites. 02 Amp up the volume when you interview your guests because the room ambient noise over powers what they say. 03 Why did you do away with the original intro?? where you change into your Chef Whites while walking in... 04 Last but not least, thank you for reviving a classic!!Cheers

Michael Johnston (ambrose) As a fan of the F Word as presented on UK television, I was hoping for the best. This was a big disappointment. Fox (and their associates) has changed the premise to make it impossible to care about who wins. The celebrity interviews stink. Gordon's segments on cooking are brief and odd. At least in the UK version we got some of his culinary knowledge. This was a big disappointment but it was not completely unexpected, based on what Fox has done to Gordon's prior series.Maybe it will improve, but I don't think so. Once established, the formula is just repeated over and over.
