Top Reviews: “Being Gordon Ramsay” and “Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn”

The Must Watch podcasters, Hayley Campbell and Scott Bryan, joined Naga Munchetty this week to review three big TV and streaming shows: ‘Being Gordon Ramsay’, ‘Love Story: John F. Kennedy JR. & Carolyn Bessette’ and ‘Vanished’.

Let’s dive into ‘Being Gordon Ramsay’ on Netflix. This fly-on-the-wall documentary series follows Gordon Ramsay as he opens a new restaurant, juggling family life and professional pressures. It offers a mix of personal reflections and behind-the-scenes glimpses into his business.

Scott felt that the fly-on-the-wall style wasn’t the best fit for this series. He found himself disinterested in the restaurant opening and indifferent to the drama of rain on opening day. On the other hand, Hayley described the experience as agonizing, with time feeling like it moved at a snail’s pace. The series shadows Mr. Ramsay for six months as he readies to launch five new restaurants.

However, both reviewers struggled to connect with the show. Scott felt that the format was off, while Hayley found it cliché and lacking in authenticity. The series follows Mr. Ramsay as he expands his brand and shares snippets of his personal life with his wife and children globally.

If you’re a Gordon Ramsay fan, you can stream all episodes of ‘Being Gordon Ramsay’ on Netflix right now.

Moving on to ‘Love Story: John F. Kennedy JR. & Carolyn Bessette’ on Disney+. This Ryan Murphy-produced dramatization explores the famous marriage and tragic death of John F. Kennedy JR. and his wife, Carolyn Bessette.

The performances in this show were highly praised by the reviewers, offering a captivating look into the high-profile couple’s lives.

Stay tuned for their take on ‘Vanished’ in the next section.
