I love it. Get out!!

My Other Self

Hasn't every season been "the wildest season yet"? I wonder if they have a twelfth season in the bag to air during the summer along with MasterChef or if they're going to pair it with Hotel Hell instead.

Norm de Plume

Oh goody, the most shocking season yet. I can hardly wait! It's roawrr!

JasonF

To be fair, a chef using a puppet to sing "Shaddap You Face" is pretty shocking.

Evan Meadow

Ok, first of all, that may honestly be the best opening credit sequence for Hell's Kitchen EVER, and might just be best opening sequence of all time.

Second, with the show being on Fox, the only proper response, as well as a shout out to Martin is: DAMN GINA!!!!!!!!!!

Holydoc

Which Gina are you damning?

Noonan

Did anyone else's DVR cut off after the first hour? The recording said it was 2hr but it stopped at 1:05 when the 2nd part started.

Pizza

No. It recorded fine on mine.

Holydoc

Recorded great for me too. I am on Directv.

Gunde

I still love this show so much.

This premiere was epic.

"Who made this crap?"
"I did chef"
"It's perfectly cooked"

Blurring the puppet's mouth

8 guys kicked ouy!

"YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M FROM!"

Totally Pyle at the end there.

Noonan

Weird; I'm on DirecTV as well. I'll have to look for it online somewhere.

Evan Meadow

Not Tisha Campbell that's for sure. And since there's only one Gina in the kitchen, Mrs, "Shaddup Your Face".

DJariya

That was fucking awesome. Gordon was on a rampage kicking practically everyone out of the kitchen.

The only part that was kind of corny was having the live studio audience watch the signature dish challenge. Seems like the chefs were just acting it up in front of them.

at that dude Jeremy who couldn't remember an order to save his life and then Gordon kicking him out.

at Ray sampling the Rizzoto with his fingers.

Susan is kind of an idiot, but she's by far the hottest one on the girls team.

My Other Self

Well, I'll give them that. It was definitely the most memorable season premiere I've seen for the show. I was laughing the whole time. Not surprised to see that clown go first, but I still wonder how they find some of these people. It really doesn't seem like any of them are acting and the fact that the one ugly girl had no idea how to work in a "brigade line" seemed odd.The fact that some of them acted like they really didn't wanna be there to begin with was funny, especially with the puppet woman.

Good stuff.

DJariya

Don't forget

New episode of the craziest season of Hell's Kitchen yet.

Evan Meadow

Had to leave because of family business? Nah, not buying it.

starseed1981

Awww....I was looking forward to more hand puppet hilarity.

sinned

Anyone else getting annoyed by the fact that they now are cutting off the results until the following week? As if I would mark it on my calendar to make sure that I don't miss next week's episode.

Also, Ramsey telling everyone to get out of the kitchen every episode is getting old. In the earlier seasons, it happened very rarely. Now its every episode

starseed1981

The cutting of results kinda blows.

Norm de Plume

Whatever you do, don't forget next week. Most shocking episode of the season. (I can't believe I watch this trash.)

islandclaws

I hit mute every single time Mary speaks.

Evan Meadow

They didn't do that this week.

Original Desmond

I was so surprised Dan was eliminated. I thought he would have been kept around for the drama of his conflict with the other lads.

Or i thought he would have been moved over to the red team

barelypure

I was thinking he would be moved to the red team as well. He can clearly cook, he's just a lazy bitchy young dude who hasn't been seasoned yet.

Now, Raymond needs to go.

Is it too early to pick Ja'nelle as the winner?
