Gordon Ramsay's Food Stars

Ramsay needs to poor it up a bit. Nobody cares about wine boxes and 30 dollar beach food, man... it is so disappointingly out of touch with the regular human. All about the flashy, richy locales and already-done food challenges that cater to losers with money. He seems to be concerned more with production values and imagery than with the actual modern food scene. Make a show about street food, about farm to table. Encourage your contestants to make the best hole-in-the-wall restaurant with honestly delicious and affordable food rather than fine dining BS that nobody actually likes. The BEST food is made and enjoyed by down to earth, humble folks; if Ramsay were to even ATTEMPT making a show that included and respected this population, he wouldn't be struggling with viewership.

I wanted to like this more than I do. I wasn't sure how enthralled I'd be with business challenges, and I'm enjoying that aspect more than expected. The low point for me is that the contestants are already very successful. Even if eliminated, they all go back to an already thriving business. It's on par with how Hell's Kitchen already has seasoned chef - however professional chefs don't have excessive money and the prize would be life changing. I admit that I don't know the exact financials of the Food Stars contestants, but the way they've been presented is that they are all doing quite well. I would much prefer to see this type of show with business people who have a solid idea, but don't yet have their foot in the door.

Season 1 was the best of all these show, the first version was great I loved it. Ramsay needs no internal competition. This model doesn't work?

He offered great advice and direction and we could see who had real talent. Maybe Ramsay should slow down and stick with the models that work.

But adding this reality star women who walks around with a designer dog on the Housewives and thought she was better than all of them. I guess she has opened restaurants - but has she really or just paid people. .

But maybe other real restauranteurs can't work with Ramsay. Just air time for a woman who loves to show her behind. Please go back to original format!

So I just created my IMDB account to express my support for Megan. I want to echo Top Dawg Critic's sentiments about disruptive individuals. Caroline, Sydney, and stubborn Queen can be quite irritating. Queen showed promise but was unwilling to take feedback. Watching them from an audience standpoint is uncomfortable.

Caroline's attitude reminds me of a quote from South Park Season 8, Episode 12 - worth a watch.

Anyways as a cooking enthusiast who respects great chefs like Ramsey, I'm apprehensive about him choosing a winner who may not value his guidance and investment. It's a show to watch!

I'm a major GM fan. I'll watch anything with him in it but I just could not stomach this show. Season 2 with the vamderpump lady was much worse than season 1. But they still both sucked. I know GM is a brilliant entrepreneur but we love to see him in cooking shows not business shows. This was not interesting. I didn't not learn anything. I was not entertained. I don't see the sense in cutlery manufacturers in a culinary challenge. I just makes no sense. I watched this because it was the only new GM show available but I won't be doing that any more. Trash GM shows are still trash. I sincerely hope that there will not be a 3rd season of this show.
