The F Word (British TV series)

The F Word is an American competitive cooking reality show hosted by celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.[1] The series premiered on May 31, 2017, on Fox.[2] It is based on the original British series of the same name.[3]

Format

[edit]

The F Word is a live[4] hour-long cooking reality show in which families from across the U.S. compete as teams in a high-stakes cook off. Gordon Ramsay, celebrities, and various VIP guests judge the teams on their culinary skills.[5]

In addition to the competition element, each episode will feature Ramsay talking with surprise guests in the dining room, as well as demos of the episode's featured dishes. He will also host live remote broadcasts and appear in special field segments with culinary experts and fans from around the country.[6]

The “F” refers to “food,” and not the profanity “f**k.”
