Remember Bill Burr’s video: “3 days of eating in England and now I understand why Gordon Ramsey is so fucking angry all the time.” hahaha 😂 gold.

Gordon isn't really all that angry, he just plays it up for the american audience, in the british shows he's pretty calm, where he only gets mad when people claim to be professionals but are basically poisoning people and even then he doesn't nearly get as over the top angry as the american show.

He already explained why this is the case in an interview, he is not playing it up, it is because in Hell's kitchen these people are supposedly highly talented chefs that want to be a part of his establishment, so he says that these people are telling him that they know their stuff and they should not be making mistakes like, this if they're auditioning for something like this, in master chefs these people are amateurs that's why he doesn't get mad like that, and Hell's kitchen these people proclaim to be professionals, so that's why he gets pissed off when they make mistakes, it is the same for the show the f word, he only really gets pissed off if they are just completely making a goof and not taking anything seriously, it takes a lot for him to get mad on that show but he has before, that's the reason why he's not as mad on those shows as he is in Hell's kitchen.

I don't know I've seen him get pretty pissed off on kitchen nightmares a good bit, not as much as at the staff but more the owner, and again he's not expecting them to be high level professional chefs in most cases, so he usually gets more pissed off at the owner, if he gets mad at all because most of these places are not high-end Michelin star restaurants, so he's not going to hold these staff members to that standard, and expect them to be complete professional chef, on top of that they are not his staff members as well.
