(NEW YORK) — Gordon Ramsay’s “nightmare” is over. The temperamental British chef has announced he is ending Kitchen Nightmares, which was a hit in the U.K. before it was adapted in America for Fox.
Ramsay says on his website, “I’ve had a phenomenal 10 years making 123 episodes, 12 seasons, shot across 2 continents, watched by tens of millions of people and sold to over 150 countries. It’s been a blast but it’s time to call it a day.”
Kitchen Nightmares, featuring Ramsay attempting to help failing restaurants, premiered in the U.K. in 2004. The American version debuted on Fox three years later, with its seventh season having concluded in May.
Ramsay notes that he’s currently filming four new episodes for British television.
He says he will continue with his other two TV series, Hell’s Kitchen and MasterChef.
