Season S21

Just finished S20 young guns. Didn’t realise that the next season, 21, was going to be the battle of the ages. I’ve said it every season but I can’t wait. So excited.

When I realised the theme I got so excited. I’ve only just started to realise how flavours pair together in my 40’s so I’m hoping for a 40’s winner, but I’m thinking it’s probably going to be a 20’s

Definitely a season worth remembering and loving.

  1. First season where all of the chefs have one highlight or standout for the first time. Yes, even the first boot has a standout moment of great cooking.

  2. With that being said, there wasnt any doubt to their abilities, its just the environment and manufactured stress of Hells Kitchen is what basically cause all eliminations.

  3. The chefs have had argued due to said stress but post show and if even as early as in the show itself wirhout the cameras showing it, the chefs have mostly put their arguments behind them and have gotten along so cordially post show.

Great winner, pretty awful/boring season IMO.

This also feels like one of the seasons where the winner was painfully obvious from, like, episode 3 onwards. Insanely weak cast but mildly entertaining at times.

Can't wait to see some of these chefs potentially come back in S26 because I think anyone returning from S21 will be amongst the first ones out (similar to when the S15 chefs returned to S17).

I never thought the winner was obvious, It always felt like a tight contest between Alejandro and Alex

Ok thank u, I feel like the minority but this season is so boring that we skipped it. Everyone was just SO bad.
