It was not horrible, nor was it great, but it seemed more of the same as it was basically, "Kitchen Nightmares" but with the lame twist of having only 24 hours to revamp an eatery. Things seemed rushed, people MUST have been very tired doing this overnight.
The set up of the show is that a failing eatery is supposedly being filmed for renovation, but unknown to them, Gordon Ramsay, is really doing his typical Kitchen Nighmare show instead. When they revealed it was actually Gordon, there was not much surprise shown, and the entire show seemed a bit set up and fake in some ways.
Maybe the idea is just getting old, or maybe it never was all that real to begin with, but the drama seems way over the top, and everything comes together too well in most of these shows. Not a lot of finesse and just comes off seeming staged a bit.
It has everything you love about Kitchen Nightmares and Hotel Hell. I would love to see Gordon work with a restaurant for a month. He does so much great stuff in one day but you can't change peoples bad habits that quick.
I wanted to like this new series as I remember GR doing series in the U.K. maybe 15 years ago. But, this appears to be so scripted and "fake". Maybe it will get better but show lost it's place on the DVR. I have a hard time understanding how with editing tv shows just can't hold their audience, at least make me want to watch the next episode.
Not a fan of this 24 hour format.
Lets start by saying when Gordon goes to these restaurants the staff have already been working for a few hours already (Lunch is in full swing) - THEN they have to stay and clean and cook for ANOTHER 24 hours. So these people are working non stop for about 28 hours?!? - They would be dead on their feet by the time the next service is happening and no help to anyone.
Just go back to the regular Kitchen Nightmares format, which was about 3-5 days. Its more believable and you dont get all these questions about the silly countdown clock

This show seems hastily produced and rushed. I understand the 24 hours thing but Kitchen Nightmares and Robert Irvine's 'Restaurant Impossibe' were much better. I hope this gets better because my wife and I love to watch Ramsey on Hell's Kitchen.
Did you know
- GoofsProduction takes much longer than what is actually shown on air. That being said, though, Ramsay typically arrives during the lunch meal as shown by the daylight when he takes the staff and customers outside to show them the candid video footage. At the relaunch, which is supposed to be '24' hours later, it is the dinner service and usually dark out so it is more like 30 hours later.
