‘Hell’s Kitchen’ Premiere: Royce Has Confidence, And Refers To Himself In The Third Person (VIDEO)

It’s summer time, which means it’s time for Gordon Ramsay to take over the Fox network again. His annual domination began with the premieres of two of his shows, “MasterChef” and “Hell’s Kitchen” (Mon., 8 p.m. ET on Fox). The night kicked off with Ramsay in his element, yelling at the fresh batch of contestants on “Hell’s Kitchen” as they failed to impress him.

One contestant, though, certainly had the confidence to take him all the way, and it’s only the first day. Royce was so full of himself, he referred to himself throughout the episode in the third person.

“Royce can make spaghetti,” he declared. “Royce can make squab. Royce can make anything. I got this!” Only he didn’t. And he couldn’t.

After Ramsay sampled Royce’s spaghetti, he called it “crunchy” and threw Royce out of the kitchen. But it wasn’t enough to get Royce thrown from the show — yet. But that’s because it was a disastrous dinner service for everyone.

Both the men’s team and the women’s team failed to send out a single entree, while the men really didn’t manage to get anything going right, and so they have to nominate their weakest links. But they don’t even get that right.

They guys send out Tayvon and Don, but Ramsay corrects them. Tayvon and Royce are their weakest links, but in the end he keeps Royce alive for another week. Will the experience humble him? Will he stick to first person from here on out?

Find out as “Hell’s Kitchen” continues Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.

    Fox has a double-bill of new dating shows from 8-10 p.m. on Thursday, starting with “Take Me Out.” We’re more intrigued by the unabashed “Voice” rip-off “The Choice,” which sees celebrities such as DJ Pauly D, Romeo, Jeremy Bloom and Jason Cook take to the spinning chairs to choose attractive singles to take on a date, sight unseen. It kind of ignores “The Voice’s” central premise, since all of the single contestants are supposedly attractive and thus not in need of a blind audition, but it should have some novelty value.

Located 45 miles south of New Orleans, the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office investigates thousands of incidents every year. With the fiery personalities of the local Cajuns and the Louisiana justice system unlike any other (it’s the only state that is ruled under Napoleonic law), there’s no such thing as an ordinary police call. Whether it’s a creepy sighting of the Rougarou (“shape-shifting swamp monster”), a distressed neighbor reporting a stolen air conditioner during a heat wave, or a lead on a gruesome local serial-killer case; the deeper into the sticky swampland the deputies delve, the stranger and more mysterious the calls become.
