I love the show too. It's great. And like Gina who posted above, this is the first time I've been interested in watching a show about restaurants. He does a great job of weeding out the deadbeats. That manager that got fired was lazy and couldn't do anything right. GREAT SHOW !!!!!

Maria Hernandez , Portland Oregon, USA

I don't think he will do such thing. Sometimes these restaurants we eat on maybe, it really looks like the way he showed it on his shows. We just don't know, because we don't visit inside there kitchen. By watching his show it gave me and my husband an idea to open our own clean kitchen/restaurant.

M.Reyes, California, USA

I love the show and check the TV guide hoping it will be on again. This is the first time I have ever been interested in watching a show about food or restaurants. I would eat his food, and think his ideas are genius.

How can you actually think that Gordon hires people? if you heard that Chef Ramsey was cooking wouldent you go try it? he wouldent need 2 hire people to come see him!

tony blond, toronto,

Great chef ,passionate about his work,a terrific motivater,what a shame that somebody attracting so much attention has to be so vulgar and crass.

T. Johnston, Colne, U.K.

I think Gordon Ramsey is awesome. He does what most people want to say to the restaurant owners. Its about time someone actually has the guts to stand up to idiots and arrogant asses! I love watching his shows every week. And Chef Ramsey doesnt need to hire actors to portray how busy the restaurans!

Jen D, Houston, USA

If I was ever to run a restaurant, I would run it just like Gordon Ramsay. I plan my entire week around his shows. I actually get angry when he's not on and the week becomes depressing. Not only do I like his management style, but I also watch what he cooks and creates-the man is brilliant!

andre ward, Myrtle Beach, United States

Today too many people think thay can get away with murder. Several times i have been sick going to the restaurant...I am ready to believe that it was because the kitchen was not clean or the food was not fresh. The show shows restaurant owners are responsible for the failure of their restaurant.

genevieve, Shreveport, USA

I am a huge fan of Gordon Ramsey. I watch his shows faithfully every week. I would love to meet him in person one day.

Phil, East Windsor, USA

more resturants need a Gordon Ramsey, Keep the vulgarity in the Kitchen as it is entertaining.... I look forward to his show each time it airs.

janice, ottawa, Canada

I love the shows too and people who find him or the shows offensive are probably lazy and intellectually incapable of embracing his efforts to promote hard work and passion for your profession. I applaud his no nonsense manner and hope his success affords him the last laugh.

Ana , New York, USA

I absolutely LOVE both of his shows here in the States, Kitchen Nightmares and Hell's Kitchen. I watch them every week and now that I have Directv - I can watch him daily on the BBC channel. I am extremely happy to be able to do that.

Don't let them get you down Chef!! We love you!

Mega Patch, Clinton, USA

I'm a big Ramsey Fan! Have a look at this viral advert that spoofs him, very funny...

Gordon - I just love your shows and never miss one! You have an amazing creativity when you go into a failing restaurant and are able to clearly see what they need.
I love your energy, your accent and your fiery language. Keep up the good work and I'll keep watching!!

Diane Quinlan, Quakertown, PA, USA

Gordon, this message is coming from western australia, you keep going mate, we all think you are an absolute champion, we watch the show every week, you do it mate and you do it well, you should head to Perth Western Australia and give them a workout over here,keep up the boiling levels mate.

Dean, Perth, australia

You are fantastic Gorden, my partner and I love your shows and dont miss a show ever.
When are you comeing to Melbourne Aust?
Keep doing what you do best, your a hunny!

Justine, Frankston, Australia

Ramsey you rock! Give us more more more.........mate dont worry about them, their all just jealous your so successful.
"Be Good or Be Good at it" and your bloody good at it!

Susie, Melbourne, Australia

When a restaurant is shown in its shabbiest state don't expect the place to be full of costomers the next day. With Ramseys name and fame he has the power to fill seats, but its fleeting. People will always come out to eat his food to say they have, so it's no suprise that places are busier after.

James Parry, Kingston ont, Canada

I never worked in the hospitality business (specifically in the restaurant business). After watching GR, I developed an appreciation for how a restaurant is run 'behind the scenes'. Gordon has made me more aware of the power of the consumer! Also, thanks to all the hard working waitresses!!!

Sandy, Toronto, Canada

Ha Gordon,
Never miss his kitchen nightmares or hell's kitchen. Now we get a dose of Ramsay three nights a week. Like someone said, you have to wonder why people don't clean up their kitchen when they know he is coming. Surely there's nothing he can't do. You go Gordon!!! You absolutely rock.

liz, melbourne, Australia

So, are the owners of Dillon's also claiming that Gordon Ramsey brought the filthy roaches and flies too? I am certain Kitchen Nightmares had them sign waivers and releases in order to film on location. However, it is a Fox show, so anything is possible.

Mark Wilson, Fergus, Canada

The thing ive never understood was why these restaurants dont ever seem to clean up before a Top Chef and his TV Camera Crew come through.
Not to mention, where are the Health Inspectors?
I love Gordon Ramsey, but couldnt say i 100% believe everything on the show.

sarah abbott, Melbourne, Australia

I have worked in hospitality and Ramsay knows what he's talking about. As for the whole accusation of staging things... I doubt it very much. Ramsay may be an absolutely merciless to those that are incompetent but I doubt he would stage something like a bad restaurant. Why would he? Salute Ramsay!

JCD, Perth, Australia

go gordan you are the best let no one tell you other wise GO MATE

jake rivett, merbein, australia

gordon is the best he has such a passion for what he does and cant understand why anyone in the restuarant buisness doesnt have the same go gordon your great loved by an aussie debra body warburton australia

Debra Body, warburton, australia / victoria

Ramsay is straight up!! you gotta do what it takes to take out your competition ,hes is fierce and does not play when it comes to business and passion for food

GO Ramsay!!

Chris, Palm Coast, Florida

i think gordan is great he is very passionate about food and customers, as a chef it is inspiring to watch him, he has basic stratages that if are followed help to make a place a succsess like simple fresh food and a definate theme. the americans are fonny to watch because they are so loud and stuborn. i have read his book about his life and it really helps you to understand him and realise he is the real deal i hope he comes to australia i think there are quite a few places that would benefit from a visit.

kerriann hutton, terrey hills sydney, australia

Ramsay is the Best. He's bootcamp for kitchens and a kind of in your face hard love for Chefs. He can do no wrong in my eyes. Goooooo Gordon!

Jonah Olivo, Long Beach, California USA

I think out of all the chefs there is at the moment on tv gordon has to be the best. I live in melbourne, australia and l watch gordon on cable tv every night in the f word and 2 nights a week on free to air in ramsays kitchen nightmares. Keep up the good work and dont let anyone put you down.

Kim Hannell, lalor, Victoria

Go Gordon I think your fantastic every restaurant needs a chef like yourself. Keep up the good work, hope to see you in Australia very soon.Gayle, Melbourne Australia

Gayle, Melbourne, Victoria

I hate him, I hate him,,, My wife of 20 years is in love with this
guy ! She is the female Ramsey without the seasoning language, she subs some of the words,she left her job and now goes to cooking school at a local college with hopes of some day participating in Hell's Kitchen and work with Chef Ramsay.
But I have to admit that this guy knows what he's taking
about, keep up the good work we never miss any of
your shows and hope my wife gets a chance to meet you

Best of luck my "ribald"

Ramon Montesano, Miami, Florida USA

The best reality TV in years.Makes watching TV drama boring, the real entertainers are the people. Go Gordon.

Tony Puttick, Perth, Western Australia

As a person who has worked in the kitchens over a number
of years. I understand the pressure that gordon is under
from his chef to the rest of his staf
ibelive gordon to be one of the worlds greatest chef

david woods, thornton heath croydon, surrey

This guy is the greatest when it comes to revamping a restaurant. He tells it like it is. I'm 50 and was born in the restaurant business. His show brings out the absolute truth about the goings on in the kitchen. I'm hooked on the show. It needs to be on more in the U.S.

Keep up the good work.. Gary Goldstein, Ft Lauderdale Fl.

gary goldstein, cooper, U.S.A Florida

I think Gordon is great fun to watch. Bring out more series please.

Manisha, Harrow, UK

I have the greatest respect for gordon, he is brutally honest and people need that level of honesty to survive. I find myself hooked on all his programmes, as he is bloody hilarious. I love the fact he was born a few miles away from where i live and how he has made such a sucess of his life.
Gordon, you are the best!

lorna, paisley, scotland

I believe that Chef Ramsey's show is very real because I have worked in the restaurant business for 19 years. I have seen all kinds of stuff! Some of the scenes in the "Kitchen Nightmares" program are events that I, as a manager, had the privilege of dealing with in real life. I personally feel that the show is very real.

Cathie Newman, Murrayville, Georgia

Hey Gordon... I just got to say i love your show. I look forward to watching it all the time. Just the way you give your opinion to the cheifs is just awesome. Sometimes you got to yell in someones face to get the point across. I love it. The funniest part is when the chiefs get mad at you and tell you to leave... are they stuiped? Why cant they understand that your there to help and accept it? Keep up the great epidsodes.

Randy , Clyde, Texas

I love Ramsay. Can not wait to see your shows next year. It seems like before the words come out of your mouth there coming out of mine. You are one in a million, and not bad looking either. Thanks

Gordon you absolutly rock. i never miss hell's kitchen or kitchen nightmares. What ever you do, please dont cancel these shows, i would not have anything to look forward to

TRUE FAN, FT.LAUD, USA- FLORIDA

It's always interesting to see the criticism others have for people who are successful.

I've become a Gordon Ramsey fan, and after owning a restaurant for over 4 years I feel that any spin he could put on the problems restaurants have would not be untrue. In our four years, we pretty much saw just about everything.

I think it's about time he made public some of the problems restaurants frequently encounter - regardless of who is playing the part.

Sandy Barnes, Clearwater, Florida

Ramsay is awesome .. we love him, love watching him in all his shows .. if you havent seen "The F Word" on BBC America watch it .. you will see the heart of this wonderful man. We are still laughing over him calling J.P a 'lazy frog" ...
Put on the C.C so you can catch every word :)

Gordon Ramsay is the best!!!! No questions asked.

shawnpm, Lakewood, USA, CO

The episode aired last week and as Gordon so eloquently put it, the guy was a complete 'toss-pot!'

Rob, Weston, FL

That inept manager wasn't "fired". He clearly walked off the job, although someone as incompetent as that and so involved with his cell phone during service in my restaurant would be dismissed immediately.

Yes, he's VERY married with small children. On his BBC series you get to see his wife and daughters.

Anon, Somewhere USA,

I just read something else and I see Gordon is married. He's probably a pussycat when he isn't yelling at people.

Linda, Qikiqtarjuaq, NU, Canada

Gordon Ramsay is a hunk. Does anyone know whether he is married or not? He is a very private person.
Let's hope he is recovering nicely from his recent burn.
Linda

Linda, Qikiqtarjuaq, NU, Canada

Who is Marco Pierre White ?. He is making Hell's kitchen so dull and personally I would not eat anything prepared by a chef who looks as though he has not had a wash in months.

Bring back Gordon !

Jan Sroczynski, Liskeard, England

Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen...is there anything Ramsey CAN'T do?
Honestly, the guy is an awesome chef (for heavens' sakes, he's PROVEN he can cook and manage a restaurant--or several), AND brutally honest--something a LOT of people need to be faced with. Go Gordon!

Allianne, Bellevue,

Oh please. Sounds to me like this restaurant manager just wants his day in the sun and frankly, is jealous of Gordon Ramsay's success. Millions of dollars?? Give me a freaking break. Destroy the restaurants reputation? Never. This publicity will only add to business. For me - I love the guy (Gordon). I love Hell's Kitchen and I can't wait to see Kitchen Nightmares. Gordon has not gotten as far as he has in life by cowtowing to snively people. Go Gordon - you rock!
