It's even funnier when you find out Ramsey doesn't act like that on his European based shows.

He only acts like that in America because Americans love ragebait

Yeah, I always liked the UK Kitchen Nightmares more because of that. Feels less fake.

The UK show isn't blasting energetic music into your ears while doing jumpcuts and powerzooms all the time.

It's so much more quiet. Ramsey seems like a really likeable dude here.

Really enjoyed binging all of those episodes, couldn't stand the US ones.

Yeah the OG UK episodes are by far the best.

Reminds me of this old Schweppes ad. It always rang true. Warning: Facebook link, couldn't find it anywhere else!

Yeah, as an American that checks out.

Our "society," for lack of a better word because we really don't qualify, is hot garbage.

He's signed with Fox. It's very strange when I realized the scripting, narrating, and editing for his shows had the same hyperbolic comments that Trump does.

  • "Most extreme"
  • "Worst"
  • "Greatest challenge"
  • "First time in Hells Kitchen/Kitchen Nightmare/random show history"

I hate his American shows. I want to see the actual food, not the bullshit manufactured drama.

His American shows are all ego stroking. Lots of nonsequitor comments from contestants and guests on how incredible he is. How sexy (which is very awkward) he is. Omg I can't believe he's right here.
