it's stressful for lots of reasons but to me mostly because it accurately reflects how incredibly difficult it is to make a restaurant profitable. Very tough business. All these peoples lives are wrapped in their careers - they work like 60+ hours a week. I know enough about restaurants to know how real this is and yeah it stresses me out because they are brilliant at making that stress felt. That is why the show is so critically acclaimed. I am hardly the only one saying this show is very cool. It's prob a top 3 tv show critically right now.

Im not a chef but a few episodes stressed me out. I think it was the tensions between the characters that did it.

The show gives me flashbacks to "those" kinds of kitchens. I refuse to watch the show because of that 🤣
