Regal R 03/01/2023 80/100 - Joe leaving the show made it worse. graham leaving was also sad. Still a good show ramsay carries it obviously but christinas acting was so poor. its like she had something to prove and it came through in her acting, felt disingenuous. The addition of Aaron Sanchez was pretty good though. See more 03/11/2020 I think the judges are blind and don't know how to taste food. Sanchez guy does he even know how to cook? and that big fat Jeff guy that was a contestant he deserves to go home because he is a big loser an extremely bossy for no reason because he can't cook worth a crap! I think Gordon Ramsay and Ron Sanchez need to get glasses so they can actually pick the right people!!!!!!!!!!! See more Read all reviews
