I think you underestimate the flavour profiles Ramsey is looking for in his dishes.
I agree with your risotto comment, but would add, that a chef with as much experience as that guy had, I think it was over 20 years, should get it right 98% of the time.

I'm sure Ramsey's standards are exceedingly high that's true.

I don't know, I guess we just disagree somewhat, I truly find the whole show pretty fake, but that's just my opinion.

I do enjoy his Kitchen Nightmares (UK version) a lot though. In the UK version he is a fairly decent teacher, language issue aside.
