Fox plans more Gordon Ramsay reality

Good news for Gordon Ramsay fans: Fox has ordered another season of the internationally known chef's realty series "Kitchen Nightmares."

Ramsay will continue giving tough love makeovers to restaurants in need next season as part of a renewal agreement with Granada America, Optomen and A. Smith & Co.

The network also is expected to shortly announce that Ramsay's other series, "Hell's Kitchen," will return for a new season this summer. "Kitchen" recently shot back-to-back fifth and sixth seasons. Rather than continuing to parcel out the show one season per year, Fox will take the unprecedented step of airing two consecutive seasons.

Combined with the new order of "Nightmares," there's a good chance fresh episodes of Ramsay's reality fare will continue airing regularly on the network through the end of next year.

"Kitchen" is currently airing on Thursday night and holding up well under the pressure of the most competitive time period on television. Fox is planning a live special called "Cook Off" starring Ramsay at some point, and is developing a new Ramsay series with details still kept under wraps.

Is there some confusion of titles with "Hell's Kitchen 6"? Since that is not what this thread is about, how about "Kitchen Nightmares," which is what it is about.

I can see how the wording is confusing but it is Hell's Kitchen Season 6

The network also is expected to announce shortly that Ramsay's other series, Hell's Kitchen, will return for a new season this summer. Kitchen recently shot back-to-back fifth and sixth seasons. Rather than continuing to parcel out the show one season per year, Fox will take the unprecedented step of airing two seasons back to back.

Also.....

Ramsay's other show, Hell's Kitchen, may also be back sooner than expected. The Hollywood Reporter also says Fox will announce that the sixth season of Hell's Kitchen, in which amateur chefs compete against each other under the brutal tutelage of Ramsay, will air this summer.

Because two seasons of Hell's Kitchen were shot back-to-back, season six is already in the can despite season five currently airing on Fox.

Hell's Kitchen can be seen Thursday nights at 9 p.m. on Fox. Are you ready for more Ramsay?

SUMMER SIZZLES BEGINNING THIS MAY ON FOX

Fox Press Release

NEW MEDICAL DRAMA “MENTAL” DEBUTS MAY 22

GORDON RAMSAY TURNS UP THE HEAT ON “HELL’S KITCHEN” JULY 21

“TEEN CHOICE 2009” CELEBRATES TEEN ICONS MONDAY, AUGUST 10

Television’s hottest summer season begins this May with Season Five of SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE and the premiere of new medical drama MENTAL. Fan-favorites heat up the summer with the next installment of culinary competition HELL’S KITCHEN and all-new episodes of DON’T FORGET THE LYRICS!, ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A 5th GRADER?, COPS and AMERICA’S MOST WANTED.

As previously announced, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE, the high-stepping summer sensation, again promises to keep viewers moving to a different beat, as dancers skilled in styles ranging from street to ballroom compete to be named America’s favorite. Featuring host Cat Deeley, judges Mary Murphy and Nigel Lythgoe and some of the country’s greatest choreographers, Season Five of SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE kicks off with a two-night, four-hour premiere Thursday, May 21 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) and Wednesday, May 27 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT).

As Gallagher takes on new cases, he is confronted with patients battling unknown, misunderstood and often misdiagnosed conditions. Gallagher delves inside their minds to gain a true understanding of who they are, allowing him to uncover what just might be the key to their long-term recovery.

The summer gets even hotter when the next installment of HELL’S KITCHEN kicks off with a special two-hour premiere Tuesday, July 21 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT). The intensity continues Tuesdays beginning July 28 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) as Chef Gordon Ramsay narrows down the field of competing chefs until only one remains standing in the kitchen.

Fox is kicking off its summer slate in late May, starting with the return of "So You Think You Can Dance" and new drama "Mental."
As previously announced, "Dance" launches its fifth season on Thursday, May 21, with a two-hour special (the night after the "American Idol" finale, as has become tradition at Fox). "Dance" will also air a two-hour special on Wednesday, May 27.

Show then will fall into a regular series pattern, with two hour performance shows on Wednesdays and one-hour weekly results shows Thursdays at 9 p.m.

The new drama "Mental," meanwhile, will air Fridays at 9 p.m. starting May 22. Fox TV Studios and Fox Intl. Channels shot 13 episodes of "Mental," starring Chris Vance and Annabella Sciorra, in the fall at Fox TeleColombia in Bogota, Colombia.

Simultaneous to its run on Fox, "Mental" will air day-and-date on Fox Intl. Channels outlets in 35 countries.

"Mental" will be paired with the return of reality skein "Don't Forget the Lyrics," which will air Fridays at 8 p.m. starting May 22. Then, on July 3, reality competish "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" will take over that slot.

Fox unveils lineup for summer

'Dance,' 'Hell's Kitchen' coming back

Fox announced the return of "So You Think You Can Dance," another round of "Hell's Kitchen" and a new scripted psych ward drama called "Mental" for the summer.

The postseason lineup launches a little early, in late May, something NBC is doing too as networks jockey to premiere their next round of programming while viewing levels are still high. Fox also is rolling out "Don't Forget the Lyrics" and "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader."

"Dance" has a two-night four-hour premiere starting Thursday, May 21, and Wednesday, May 27. Once auditions conclude, two-hour weekly performance shows will air Wednesdays at 8 p.m. with one-hour results shows on Thursdays at 9 p.m.

"Mental" will air Fridays at 9 p.m., debuting May 22. "Lyrics" will serve as "Mental's" lead-in at 8 p.m. launching the same day, and will be swapped with "Grader" starting July 3.

"Hell's" is airing back-to-back installments this year and will return with a two-hour debut on Tuesday, July 21 at 8 p.m. Also, Saturday night staples "Cops" and "America's Most Wanted" will continue into the summer.

There's no new reality shows listed here, though that could change -- and likely will the summer gets closer.

It's nice to have HK in the summer to take us through what is usually a slow period for TV.

I agree thanks Fox

I’m glad it’s moved to Tuesdays I’m hoping BB wont air that day of the week and picks any of the other 6 days. I’m worried their ratings will kill HK’s first shot during the summer.

Fox reveals the identites of 'Hell's Kitchen's sixth-season contestants

By Christopher Rocchio, 06/24/2009

Fox has revealed the identities of the 16 culinary contestants competing on Hell's Kitchen's sixth season, which will premiere with a special two-hour episode on Tuesday, July 21 at 8PM ET/PT

Beginning July 28, Hell's Kitchen's sixth season will settle into its regular Tuesdays 8-9PM ET/PT time period.

Hell's Kitchen's sixth season will begin with the 16 contestants being asked to create their signature dishes -- however unlike past seasons, the challenge will become a team endeavor pitting the men against the women.

In addition, one of the contestants will also go "head-to-head" with Ramsay, leading to the "most explosive, most outrageous and most intense elimination round ever seen" on the show, according to Fox.

The eventual sixth-season winner will receive the head chef position at Araxi Restaurant in British Columbia, Canada -- which was established in 1981 at the base of the Whistler ski resort. In addition, the winner will also join executive chef James Walt at the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Vancouver.

The 16 contestants competing on Hell's Kitchen's sixth season are:
