@vantablack I guess youve only seen stuff from 20 years ago.
He does very little of that anymore.

EDIT: I mean, Ive watched a LOT of his stuff. Was he abusive to people on a specific show? Once upon a time, yes, but it was also a window into how brigade kitchens actually were.
On all of his other shows besides Hells Kitchen hes actually quite nice, and even on that show hes way less abusive now.

The man has 17 Michelin stars. Yelling at people is hardly his whole schtick.

@vantablack If anything, the producers in those early days played up his yelling for ratings. He seemed quite embarrassed about it for a while.
Now he owns ALL of his content personally, and theres just way less of that.
