I just sat through a Ramsey Kitchen Nightmare marathon and..
Discussion
I absolutely loved it! 
I've always had one of his shows on in the background but never really paid any attention to them. This may be wrong to admit that I sat through almost 2 seasons of a Kitchen Nightmare marathon yesterday and through the AM, but I will admit it.
Gordon Ramsey is the man! I loved it! One of the episodes had a restaurant right in the area where I grew up! I went there once.
I am going to give his other shows a better chance now for sure.
I couldnt help but think however about the thread here recently where someone had said Ramsey was on a flight in first class while his wife and kids sat coach. hahahaah After watching him, if he is even one bit the same man in real life as he is on TV, a move like that doesnt surprise me one bit!
I wouldnt mind meeting Mr Ramsey. He seems like a good enough guy.

d who topped himself in America after Ramsey verbally annihilated his restuarant bet he loved him 
Seems a nice guy?...He's probably the most arrogant rude git I have ever seen. He'd be picking his teeth out off the floor if he spoke to me the way he speaks to some people. I recall seeing him in some kitchen in the far east on some programme a while back. It was evident that the cooks working there hardly spoke any English yet he continued to shout and berate them. It wasn't nice.
Also Kitchen nightmares is horribly scripted for maximum dramatic effect. The format is always the same. He goes in; gets horrified by what he gets served; shuts the place down (with people there); Restraunt gets makeover; reopens (starts badly but just makes it through the night); opening night (everyone says how fantastic the place is)

I just read the article posted as a link in this thread about the guy from New Jersey who jumped off the George Washington bridge and its a crazy story made even crazier because I live in New Jersey, I know the restaurant AND I drive over the GW bridge everyday!! Its a mere 5 miles at most from my house.

Every single one is the same:
1. Ramsay tastes food, spits it out, comes up with some sweary metaphors.
2. Manager is stubborn and refuses to change.
3. Ramsay makes manager cry.
4. Ramsay changes menu and redecorates.
5. Restaurant is now packed full with everyone enjoying themselves.
6. Ramsay leaves, restaurant still fails.
I still watch it though

IMHO his US show is scripted for the mindless morons who also take part in, or watch, Jeremy Vine or Jerry Springer.
I do not doubt that the guy is a good cook and he may well be able to turn restaurants around, as can many other people.
However they're selling his volatile nature and vile language as a "reality" show. Most of the shots are staged anyway, if you've watched the end titles.....

About sums it up and don't forget in the US version Ramsay states this is pointless, chucks his pinny down and storms out only to wait on nearest street corner for the owner to run after him!1. Ramsay tastes food, spits it out, comes up with some sweary metaphors.
