Nothing scheduled
Is it for me?
Loud, tough-love makeover reality for people who enjoy Gordon Ramsay's kitchen shows but would rather be in a bar. Every episode builds to a stress test, where a real crowd floods in and the staff find out whether the fixes hold up. Taffer shouts, then backs it with numbers on pour costs and music tempo, so you learn why bars lose money.
Before you start
Episodes follow the same steps, so order doesn't matter; one season is set entirely in Las Vegas, and a few use other hosts.
