Kitchen Nightmares: Coming to America

Hail Seitan

I missed most of this past season of Hell’s K itchen due to me being otherwise visually occupied with HBO’s Big Love — one of my very favorite shows. But thankfully my sister turned me on to Chef Gordon Ramsey’s BBC series Kitchen Nightmares (Thursdays at 8:00 PM on BBC America) , a show which masquearades as being more tasteful, but actually has just about as much swearing and back stabbing. And while it’s not likely to be as smashing as the original, Fox is set to debut an American version of Nightmares on September 19th. Unless that conflicts with the debut of Survivor: China! I’m making my reservations now.
