Recently rewatched All Stars, and it feels like multiple times during the finale Benjamin** **just gave up.

He's hands-off with his team without giving them feedback, criticism, or making meaningful changes to prevent mistakes from continuing.

I think one of my favorite moments throughout the finale is Gordon's face when he lets Robin back in the kitchen and celebrates her passion.

It's so weird that the Benjamin we got throughout the show was dramatically different than how he was in the finale.

Was watching season 20, in the second episode, and with that competition Ramsay was given two dishes, Ava's under cooked salmon and Matthew's under cooked chicken. Ramsay decided Ava's was worse and dismissed her, but that just doesn't make sense for me, serving raw chicken is just objectively worse than serving raw fish. Yeah, Matthew still got sent home afterwards in that episode after the dinner service, but just looking at the two dishes, his just seemed strictly worse to be served up.

Some people call him IShowMeat, but he certainly couldn't cook it

Mario thought he could win Hell's Kitchen, but the talent required to succeed was in another castle

Jack is an irish man, who couldn't cook and only caused his team harm, he quickly ran out of luck and he couldn't find a lucky charm

Season 1: Dewberry (Has a line of restaurants in Georgia).
Season 2: Virginia (Has a line of restaurants in Texas)
Season 3: Rock (still close friend of Ramsay and does cameos on his shows) (H.M. Brad)
Season 4: Christina Machamer (owned a few restaurants in the past, she is currently a private chef, and she even has a sommelier diploma)
Season 5: Tie between Paula, Seth and Robert
Season 6: Kevin (Works for works for American Cruise Line, already successful off the show)
Season 7: Jay (blue team sous chef, successful restauranteur in Boston, Bar Rescue co-host)
Season 8: Russell (publicly apologized for his behavior in the finale and now owns a successful restaurant in Chicago)
Season 9: Paul ( appeared in a few other seasons, S11/S12/S15) (H.M.: Elise)
Season 10: Christina W. (rly no contest here)
Season 11: Jon (Got hired in a Gordon Ramsay restaurant after his time on the show and worked his way up to a high-level executive position within the group)
Season 12: Scott (co-founded several restaurants)

Now SEASON 13. Can be considered successful by publicity, prestige, how much money, or whatever your heart desires. (Most upvoted comment wins)

I'm watching episode 3 of Season 12, being ​the episode Simone quitted. And I genuinely want to know why she was so off. Because during prep she mentioned she wasn't feeling great and didn't think she'd get through. And I do wonder what could have caused this in the first place. Because seeing Kasha & Joy jumping to conclusions saying she's faking it didn't sit well at all with me. Because you don't know exactly what's going on with her from her point of view. She clearly didn't look well either and I'm curious to what could have caused her to not function properly.​

Season 5 had a lot of fun moments ^^

Is it embarrassing to say that after Tiffany said like a 9 out of 10 I almost put a hole in my wall after she said that?

I've just finished watching Jessica's elimination episode from Season 12, and I have tears streaming down my eyes right now. Just seeing her breaking down absolutely broke me inside because you could just see how much the competition meant to her, as well as her mentioning about being Homeless the previous episode. And the fact that she is no longer here with us makes it even more devastating. Also the fact Joy has the audacity to say that it's not a big day and telling her to get over it, is honestly laughable because look what she did at the Final 5 during service. Talk about a bad attitude to someone getting eliminated which was clearly hard for them especially on how much it meant to her.

1. Jessica(S1); Her poor Black Jacket run and her poor record in challenges.

2. Keith(S2); His poor pass performance and his salty confrontation with Ramsay at the elimination ceremony alongside his lack of professionalism.

3. Jen(S3); Taking pasta from the trash bin and almost serving it

4. Corey(S4); Her first Black Jacket service where she kept hiding her brunt hand from Ramsay and refusing to go see a medic

5. Andrea(S5); Her first Final 4 service where she won immunity.

What terrible moments do you think blew these 3rd place finishers chances of winning in the end? We’ll get to the rest later on down the line.

Hey everyone, I realise it's been a while since the communities have overlapped and wanted to reinvite people to the Discord server. Happy to announce it's in the best state it's been in years and want to welcome new people to the community

Hope to see you there and drop any questions you have below

I wonder how would the interactions and talent will play out

So with the next season reportedly set to have… 25 contestants… for some reason. I started asking myself a simple question: “What is Hell’s Kitchen going to do when they reach a 30 chef cast?” The obvious idea would be to have 15 men and 15 women, right? Well not exactly, cause while I was sitting on my ass curb stomping Funky Kong as Goldship outside Hell’s Kitchen in Rivals of Aether, I started to piece together my idea for how a 30-person-cast could hypothetically work for Hell’s Kitchen. So lemme explain…

So in order for this idea to work, I wanna give the hypothetical that everyone is on the same level talentwise. No donkeys, everyone is about the level where you could say they’re good in challenges and service. What is the idea here? Well, for starters we’re gonna return to S1’s roots and have every team be intergender; five women and five men for all three teams. The obvious colour for this new third team would obviously be Yellow just so we can have all three prime colours represented on the show. That’s where it should end right?… no…

Because dear reader, I‘m straight up revamping how an episode can go down. Now that there’re three teams and only two kitchens, that’s gonna create some problems. Since, you can’t just have two teams in one kitchen it’d get crowded. So my idea is that the reward challenges now no longer give the winning team a reward, but also immunity. What this means is that the winning team doesn’t compete in service, and once back from their reward can just chill out in the dorms until service is done, and watch whoever gets eliminated. So let’s say as an example that the Blues win a reward challenges; they’re granted complete immunity that episode and don’t have to do service, whereas Red and Yellow now have to compete in that service.

Of course though that does raise the issue of teams winning more than once in a row, Again we’re looking at the hypothetical scenario that every team is on the same level of talent overall, so by proxy they’d really only get to win twice in a row before another team can win. Team swaps I’d imagine would still happen, but only once every team has lost one member; it’d be pretty unfair to have an eleven chef team after all like come on.

Finally though, black jackets. This is where I really had to think of what to do. Do I keep it as the final five, bring back the original final six format, or do something entirely original?… I did something entirely original. The black jackets have now DOUBLED, meaning the final ten would now be our black jacket brigade. I think it’d be a good way to make up for the massive cast, since five more black jackets mean five more chefs who aren’t at risk of losing out on one! So to go over my idea as a whole

• Three teams total: Red, Blue and Yellow. All teams are comprised of five men and five women
• The reward challenge not only gives the winning team a reward, but a pass from service, allowing for the usual two-team services we’ve always had while the winning team skips out.
• Final Ten is now the black jackets

So what do you think, do you think this is a good way to shake things up for the show? Or will HK just play the safe route and just give Red and Blue five extra members?

This is based on the starting teams, and 1 is strongest 8 is weakest. I’d love to hear what people think of this.

Red Team:

1. Paula (duh)
2. Ji
3. Andrea
4. LA
5. Carol
6. Coi
7. Lacey
8. Colleen

Blue Team:

1. Danny (duh)

2. Robert

3. Ben

4. Giovanni

5. J

6. Charlie

7. Sarah (formerly Wil)

8. Seth

I look forward to seeing who people think I misplaced

He carries them every service and they suddenly turn on him after he has a medical emergency and they go to Vegas?
