Good news! Itchin' for more 'Kitchen' New season starts June 12 Fox has scheduled the first item on its summer menu, heading straight to "Hell's Kitchen" for a second helping this June. Show will air Mondays at 9 p.m. starting June 12. Temperamental chef Gordon Ramsay returns to put 12 more wannabe chefs through the grinder. Winner of "Hell's Kitchen" season two will be named executive chef at one of the fine-dining restaurants at the new Red Rock Casino Resort Spa in Las Vegas, slated to open April 18. The last standing "Hell's Kitchen" chef may also receive a financial stake in the eatery and help design its look. Series, shot at the onetime studios of KCOP-TV on La Brea Avenue, comes from Granada Entertainment and A. Smith & Co. Paul Jackson, Arthur Smith, Kent Weed and Layla Sabih exec produce. LINK

Hell’s Kitchen 2 has a new prize, “more intense” competition Hell’s Kitchen 2 won’t air until June 12, but the series completed production last week. Besides a rebuilt restaurant (the old set was torn down at the end of season one, so a new one was built in the exact same space), the show offers a new, less sucky prize: “the coveted title of Executive Chef of a luxurious fine-dining restaurant at the brand-new Red Rock Casino Resort Spa in Las Vegas,” according to a FOX press release. In part because of that prize, the show’s executive producer, Arthur Smith, tells the New York Post that the competition “was much more intense.” He said that chef Gordon Ramsay “knew someone was going to become an executive chef, and certain things happen along the way where I’ve never seen him get this angry. There was one situation were after we were done [for the day], it took quite awhile to calm him down,” Smith said. Thus, we can expect more angry ranting. He said, “Gordon is Gordon. There’s only one way he can be, even though there’s a method to his madness.”} Reality blurred

Grrr. No word yet here in Vegas as to what the new restaurant is. Can't even tell when you go to the Red Rock. They are probably keeping it secret till the show airs, for some reason????

I wonder if the potential chefs are aware of the awesome power of ketchup?

Last season I gave up after the first few episodes. Waaaaaay too much yelling, etc. by Ramsey for me. One hour down now. Doesn't seem as bad to me this time 'round. I can tolerate him. Or do you think he's going to change?

Good show. I've got used to the yelling. LOL - Some of those signature meals they prepared at first did look ghastly. There seems to be only a couple of contestants that have a real shot at winning but we'll see.

The contestants didn't seem as qualified as last year's. <79>. What I do like, though, is unlike almost all the other "reality" shows, this really is based on merit. There's very little chance to strategise, because the Chef has the last word.

This is the first time I have watched this show. Way too much yelling and swearing for me. I am not sure why he has to cuss all the time. And yell. Hard for me to watch. Not giving up yet, but not really liking this.

I watched, hoping this show would fill in for Top Chef, but -- well -- no, don't think so. While the challenges were interesting, I was not at all impressed w/ Ramsey -- and these cooks don't seem to be of the same caliber as we saw in Top Chef. I bet Tiffani from Top Chef could work w/Ramsey, though -- she'd give it right back to him! LOL I may watch when there's nothing else on, but it's not being tivo'ed. I prefer the kinder, gentler Chef Tom; he reminds me of Tim from Project Runway -- pushing, critical but obviously doing it because of a love of his art. The yelling part of passion doesn't inspire me (nor did it seem to help the chefs tonight pull it together).
