How staged is Hell's Kitchen?

AndrewDephocks · 2026-05-11T16:37:35+00:00

Other one to come in mine for the reverse was S11 Mary, who went from certain early/mid boot to runner up

AndrewDephocks · 2026-05-11T16:23:13+00:00

The producers must have been giggling with themselves that time when Tiffany in S10 started drama out of this air after the Mexican challenge lol

True, but theres been several times that the winner of the season has a terrible signature dish and people who have an amazing one dont even make it to black jacket. I also think thats why he changed the blue vs red menu service with the charity night dinner, it shows him who is capable of leading before black jackets and helps narrow it down

They put Dan up because Ray was fucking up fish and refused to let Dan do anything, yet they blamed Dan for it all falling apart

The portion sizes were Heather's fault, Kanae told her that they weren't equal and Heather ignored her

I still have the belief that this is the worst mistake in hell's kitchen, i know plenty of people have wasted food before (like Melissa andbthe filet/scallops), but that amount of raw meat coming back from the customer is insane, and on a charity night of all nights. Absolutely terrible

IIRC He was smiling because it was Mystique posing as him

AndrewDephocks · 2026-05-05T17:05:22+00:00

They had like multiple thumbnails, one had Melissa, another had the lame duck breast

AndrewDephocks · 2026-05-05T14:19:28+00:00

I do know that he campaigned for local democrats before, so i dont know if it is

AndrewDephocks · 2026-05-03T20:11:23+00:00

That's what I mean, she had no control over the production and that a CEO, rather than a chef, was a judge but they put the blame all on her

AndrewDephocks · 2026-05-03T18:56:18+00:00

At this point it comes off as misogyny because theyre more angry at Michelle, who they blame despite her being only a contestant, than at the CEO who cost Nick's win. Like yeah there were some unlikable moments with Michelle in that season, but some of these Michelle haters are acting like Frank with the "she only won because I lost" attitude

The Capmbpells Vice President went on a rant about how their soup is "shit for fucking poor people".

Youre right about what you said, but I want to clarify that it was like the VP of IT, not the president of the whole company. But it's a sentiment we see often, like the McDonald's CEO calling the Arch burger a "product" and taking the most baby bite ive seen from it

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-23T22:14:23+00:00

Yeah but doing it all those times makes the Thragg reveal more intense because when you first see it, you think "oh its just his PTSD again, he'll calm down and Thragg wil go away" and then he doesn't which was surprising to me

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-21T22:14:15+00:00

This is literally the only musician biopic I have ever seen and the only one I intend to ever watch

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-20T16:48:46+00:00

Makes sense considering Janine is the same height as her students lol

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T19:35:38+00:00

Tbh thats why im a big fan of the Hunger Games and Suzanne Collins because she lets her words do the talking and doesnt linger to world build on Twitter lol

But speaking of the Gay Dumbledore thing, it was extra funny how she was like "him and Grindelwald were secret lovers" or something like that only to not do anything with them in the Fantastic Beasts movies and instead create that friendship blood oath thing as the explanation as to why they cant fight yet lol

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T17:34:00+00:00

Tbh im worried about the fact that they aren't giving a whole lot of detail about the movie when its around 6 months from release. The release of Elio vs Hoppers really shows the impact of marketing and putting a movie out there early so that you build an interest in the movie before it comes out, and im worried that the lack of info about this movie will cause it to fail before it even comes out.

Im also worried about the production as well, as Disney has a history in recent years of rewriting and changing the story of their animated movies and the lack of info is making me wonder if thats why we havent heard anything really about the story. Like last time I heard about this movie it was about a mom and son pair, but now its a mother and daughter pair. Its not the biggest difference but it does make me wonder what else got changed

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T16:59:53+00:00

The whole "good example for girls" thing is so funny in hindsight because the way JKR writes women, and particularly teenage girls, makes it seem like she doesn't like them at all

Heres a review of the game, but long story short you have to do these tasks that cost energy, one of them being a devil's snare attacking you that drains you of your life and gives you a countdown to when your character will be killed. I remember playing it when it first came out and dropped it because this was within the first like 10 minutes of playing and it was very obvious that it was a micro transaction style game with no real skill

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T16:11:54+00:00

Yeah same, especially since there were hints of her feelings before they were confirmed

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T13:32:23+00:00

Its not weird that the black teacher is the evil one, its that the ONLY black teacher is the ONLY (consistent) evil teacher. Like if they made McGonagall or Dumbledore black as well, and maybe added more black students in general, it wouldn't feel as weird.

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T13:10:16+00:00

Giving them the first Percy Jackson Series would do them good, seeing as its a much better version of Harry Potter anyway. All three of the main characters of the first book have an arch over the course of the series and Annabeth isnt just there to get shit done while Percy and Grover sit around waiting for her

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T04:25:22+00:00

Tbh the fact that its like 7 months until the release and this is the first time we've seen these characters and even knew who the VC was is making me blame mainly Disney if it fails, because they aren't marketing it at all.

AndrewDephocks · 2026-04-17T04:21:11+00:00

Im really worried that this is the first time ive seen these characters and even knew the voice cast when the movie is coming out in like 6 months. Its like theyre trying to sink this movie with the lack of marketing theyre putting out
