Being a top chef is a 1000 times harder than what is seen on most "reality" cooking shows. What you perceive as the head chef being an asshole is simply a small glimpse into the real world of restaurants. He is an extreme example, but this is how most are ran. It is almost necessary since customers always demand perfection. And never give any patience for even minor mistakes. If your food fails, so does your business. I would demand nothing less myself if I was about to hand over an entire business to someone. Clearly you do not have much experience in the restaurant business.

There's no such thing as a "reality Show with civility", it's just not their purpose. Their purpose is to create drama, unfortunately that's what most producers think the public wants and they may be right..sad times we live huh? I don't believe in reality shows being real. Like one guy from those "Real World" MTV shows said: "Once you put a camera on anyone, they stop being "real"."

HA! That was hillarious and also sad. What does this guy think? A PhD makes him superior to all the people around him?

We don't get it in Germany, of course, but I'm hoping to catch it at some point while I'm in the states. my mom has been raving about the Cooking Under Fire show for a couple of weeks now.

Your comment was "this close" to being marked as spam (imagine me holding my index finger and thumb close together). But, I then realized that it was kinda on topic, in the broad sense — so, it lives to see another day ;). Hi, pooky.
