Jess and Chris continue their monthly journey into the weird world of single seasons TV shows with the pilot episode of yet another series canceled by FOX, Kitchen Confidential (2005).

The show, created by David Hemingson, follows the comeback of once-famous chef Jack Bourdain as he, along with his ragtag group of chefs, attempts to regain credibility and fame in the crowded restaurant scene of New York City. Based on the book of the same name by chef Anthony Bourdain, it's a biting, hilarious, and irreverent look at somewhere very few folks get to see: the back of the house at a fine dining restaurant.

Jess and Chris dive into episodes five through seven of the series which includes the introduction of Becky Sharp, a new female chef to the kitchen, a test of wills in the kitchen, and the aftermath of a robbery.
