NTSC/Region 1. Three DVD set. The heat is on and the stakes are high as 12 aspiring chefs endure the grueling culinary boot camp known to millions of TV viewers as Hell's Kitchen. This highly-anticipated three disc set of the inaugural season of America's most compelling guilty pleasure is presented raw and uncensored, with all of Chef Ramsay's infamous obscenities and curse words unbleeped. England's most celebrated chef Gordon Ramsay crosses the Pond to discover America's next culinary star. Competing chefs are followed 24/7, capturing their fiery drama, foul language, and high emotion as the restaurant's opening night approaches. In each episode, Gordon grills the ambitious hopefuls as they attempt to prove they have what it takes to win the ultimate prize of their very own restaurant. The contestants' inexperience, combined with Gordon's biting insults, may be a recipe for disaster, but for one aspiring restaurateur, it's the chance of a lifetime. In this pressure-cooker environment, only one thing is certain: If you can't stand the heat, get out of Hell's Kitchen.
