I've just finished watching episode 16/17 of season 7 and after being a faithful viewer and huge fan of Chef Gordon Ramsey, I'm saddened to say, I'm done. I've lost total respect and admiration for Chef Ramsey. David tried walking out of the kitchen in a temper tantrum and instead of letting him go to be fair to other contestants, maybe show them respect, Chef runs after him! Talks him back into the kitchen! What if that had been Dan, or any of the others? That just isn't Gordon Ramsey's style. So, what makes David so special that he can have his temper tantrums, cursing, throwing things around, bad behavior and earn a place in the finale over much better cooks like Tenorria? Even Chef Christina said it herself in one episode when she said if he acted like that in her kitchen he would be thrown out! So, what's up with Ramsey? Willing to lose viewers over David?! If this is the standard for the show, why should he bother cooking? Just have him show up at the finale and try to cook without having a temper tantrum or mood swings. This once deeply devoted fan is severely disillusioned, saddened, betrayed and completely shocked still by Chef Ramsey's behavior. Shame on you Chef Ramsey for showing favortiism, discrimination, bad judgment, disregard, disrespect for yourself, your fans, everyone but David. Truthfully, you're not really helping him either by giving in to his tantrums as a parent would a spoiled child. He's playing you like a finely tuned instrument and getting what he wants. He knows how to as he is a professional poker player. Ramsey, you've met your match! From a retired chef and recently devoted fan now an ex fan. I'm sorry to say we're breaking up, lol. Lori Bartley
