First off, the show is being continued at present. NBC got a lot of negative feedback from viewers because of the abrupt cancellation.
Secondly, the scheduling really was a set up in that the show was slotted in prime time opposite American Idol. If Hell’s Kitchen US had been scheduled in prime time opposite one of the most popular shows on TV instead of being slotted for the summer schedule with little competition, I doubt that HK would have done any better.
By the way, Hell’s Kitchen US has turned into just another cartoon on the Fox channel. The ‘professional’ chefs on that program don’t have any where near the talent that the celebs on this past presentation of HK UK had (the UK program is posted on utube)
I hope that Mr. White will reconsider his decision re: no more involvement in TV. He has many fans here who would like to see him involved in more series.
