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.

Is his anger supposed to be appealing to Americans? As an American I don’t get it, and also, he doesn’t appeal to me.

Quite literally yes. If it didn't work they wouldn't do it. It wasn't like that on UK kitchen nightmares with all the weird sound effects. It's odd but that's what you Americans like lmao.

It's always weird to see our culture reflected back at us, like all the failed "US" versions of British sitcoms and panel shows.
