Just looking through what these guys, from different backgrounds, wrote really brought home the wide ranging impact the Wizard had.
I never miss an episode of Hell’s Kitchen. I watch it over at Hulu.
One thing I notice is, the contestants all seem to smoke. Every time they’re done for the day, the whole bunch of ‘em are out on the smoking deck huffing one down.
I figure the producers want to portray the process as ultra high stress and the smoking footage puts forth that image. Also, knowing that these kinds of shows put the cast through comprehensive psychological profiling, I figure that smoking must be a trait they are looking for in the contestants.
Tim Nudd at MediaFreakBlog wrote a post about all of this that contained this surprising quote from Gordon Ramsay…
But Ramsey himself, whose father died at 53 from smoking, seems baffled by it. “I’ve never smoked a cigarette in my entire life,” he says. “It’s a bitter pill for me to swallow, to sit and watch these guys smoke their lives away. … But more importantly, I wish to hell they could understand the damage in terms of their palate.”
Don’t know why but, but I had the guy pegged as a three pack a day type.
