Take heed, Food Network
Do you get the impression that the Food Network has been taken over by the editorial staff of Redbook, Ladies Home Journal, and the Oxygen Network? Their content is shifting away from the appreciation of the culinary arts to explorations into low carb dieting and the history of popsicles.
Enter British Chef Gordon Ramsay, with "Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmare" coming to BBC America on Tuesday evenings. Just the hard hitting, gritty restaurant realism absent from Food Network's increasingly bland programming schedule. Watch Ramsay try to turn around struggling restaurants with his brand of profane instruction.
Here's a clip. Sounds like it could have been directed by Quentin Tarantino.
