Not even the Food Network would air this, 18 March 2009

As if reality TV wasn't bad enough...here comes RIP OFF REALITY TV! Seriously, is this the state of entertainment today? At least Hell's Kitchen has a pulse.

WOW...All I can say is, Bland, Boring and dumb. If this is what "Fine Dining" is supposed to be...then I'll go to Wendy's First, a little hint to NBC...when you're going to say that the chef made Gordan Ramsey cry...maybe he should be a little more aggressive. I thought I was in 6th grade algebra with the way this guy talked. The contestants aren't even interesting.

I gave this show almost two hours of my life and I know I'm not getting it back. Don't bother.

Watched viewer testing Episode for this last year, 3 March 2009

All I can say is, OH MY GOD. How did this make it to air!!! Seems like all the people who went thru the test screening all tuned out in under 20 minutes. I lasted 7 minutes before tuning out and my friend made it to 11 minutes. But we had to sit there and be tortured by watching the remaining test screening. Hit the green button with your left thumb if you like what you see or hit the red button with your right thumb if you do not like what you see. Put it this way, my right thumb needed to be iced down after hitting that damn red button so much. Watching this felt like watching a train wreck waiting to happen ....but never happening.

Awful show, 21 April 2009
1/10
Author: Pat from United States

When voting on this show, I really felt that I was overrating it by giving it a 1.

How can anyone even think that this show has any resemblance to the brilliant Gordon Ramsay's shows??? Chef Ramsay teaches. Marco White criticizes. Chef Ramsay demonstrates a passionate love for cooking. Marco White certainly does not, from what I saw. Chef Ramsay educates the viewing audience. Marco White does not. Chef Ramsay uses intensity to push his chefs to greater culinary excellence. Marco White seems to thoroughly enjoy demeaning, belittling and demoralizing the chefs on his show.

I am so glad that this pompous man impersonating a chef had his show canceled.

Just a question: was I the only one who saw Marco White sitting down with his legs crossed? I couldn't tell if he was wearing skin-tight ugly mustard-yellow socks or if he had no socks on. Second show I saw that it was his bare skin. UGGGGHHHHH.
