Get ready for more bleeps and blurs on FOX.
FOX is so
impressed with Gordon Ramsay and the ratings for both
Hell's Kitchen and
Kitchen Nightmares that they've given the green light for a third series from the chef. And if I understand the concept for this series, then I think this is the start of Ramsay's demise.
The new show is going to be based on a British show that Ramsay does called
Man Camp, which I've never seen but is described as "a boot camp for men whose ladies are slightly concerned about how feminine they're becoming." Seriously? That's the premise of the show? Maybe if the men are becoming too feminine it's the women who should be sent to the boot camp.

Fans of the first season are going to be particularly interested in what happens on the very first episode.

Here's a tip if you ever find yourself in the position of being a contestant on Hell's Kitchen. If you have to choose two people to go up for elimination, don't choose them for "strategic" or "personal" reasons, at least not this early in the game. And if for some reason you do choose them for those reasons, DON'T ANNOUNCE IT TO EVERYONE. But that's exactly what happened tonight, in one of the more stupid moments by a contestant in the short history of this show.
Remember, whoever you choose, Chef Ramsay has the final say on who goes home...
