I much preferred some of those Gordon Ramsay series UK versions. Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares was more akin to a documentary than the US version's on FOX with its awful jumpy editing and constant music in the background. The TV becomes more compelling when game show music isn't blaring and the focus is on how to run a restaurant. Instead of only about family infighting. The extra 5 or 6 mins helps a lot, nothing feels rushed to a conclusion like US reality TV. Another good one was Gordon's Great Escape. Documentary style reality tv works so much better IMO.
