Jess and Chris continue their monthly journey into the weird world of single seasons TV shows with 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 finish out Kitchen Confidential with a look at the final three episodes along with a wrap-up of the show in its entirety.
