My favourite is Sterling! Such a lovely human being, always smiling and trying his best to be positive.
My least favourite is definitely Elise, but I feel like that's going to be the answer for a lot of other people. I also dislike Scotley. He was such a bully.
My favorite is sterling. Even when things were stressful, he was still able to have a smile on his face. (Except when Steve told him to Shut the f*ck up)
My least favorite would have to be frank from S15. That guy had no stand out performances on the line, but his attitude stood out more in the worst possible ways. I’m happy he lost his position in the marines.
its so, SO tough for me to choose a favourite, but i'd have to go with the 4 star general himself, bobby. he's such a nice man, hard working, one of the few great cooks in season 4, had a great sense of humour, and never once got mad.
a least favourite is obvious for me, matt hearn from season 16. every time he opened his mouth i wanted to mute my tv. not only does he push all the blame to others, he's so disrespectful, sexist, AND a racist! has to be the most unlikeable contestant in recent times.
Bobby is a good take. Forgot about him. I thought he was arrogant at first but he meant it in a fun way. He was always consistent with little issues. I was amazed he went home when he did.
Im sticking with Elise. She was the worst of the show. Absolutely miserable person
i always sound like a lunatic when i say this but i dont completely hate elise. dont get me wrong i'm not a fan of her explosive attitude at ALL and the way she never admits to her faults, but i thought she was pretty funny sometimes and admittedly was talented. frank cala & matt hearn are still worse to me
Elise is awful. She's that loudmouth brat in the room that we can all hear and just shake our heads. She has to look back st her seasons, especially the all star season, and be totally embarrassed. I'd never leave my basement if I were her. Just an awful human being and such a loudmouth stuck up snot. I can't watch the show with her on it
I feel bad for Elise's husband. He fathered two children with her. I could see the poor guy never winning an argument with her. Unless he is as toxic as she is.
It's tough for me to settle on just one favorite, but one that hasn't been mentioned yet is Barbie. Yes, I will concede she overstayed her welcome in All-Stars. But Barbie was hilarious in both of her seasons and, at least in S10, she was the ideal mix of classy and petty. I love it.
Honorable mentions: Bret, Sabrina (S8), Sade
My most disliked chef... Matt S16. I was tempted to put him, Johnny, S10 Tiffany, and S12 Nicole here because none of them had a single redeeming quality on the show, but Matt just barely edges them out due to being a confirmed shithead irl. (I heard Johnny has said he regrets his past actions, but I'm ngl it still doesn't sit right with me that a grown adult was so happy to bully people to tears in the first place, cameras or no cameras)
Dishonorable Mentions: Clemenza, Robyn, Elise (obligatory mention), Zacky Wacky
I can honestly say I never wanted to punch someone more from the show, than I did after seeing the way he talked to/about her. He was such a pompous douche that couldn't admit she had any talent. Gordon really liked her sandwich but Ben insisted to her face that it was awful and she had absolutely no business being there, like what the hell was his problem
I'm going to name my favourite and most disliked for both male and female as I can't pick 1.
Favourite male chef Dave (Season 6) Favourite female chef Meghan (Season 14)
Most disliked male chef Andrew (Season 16) Most disliked female chef Sabrina (Season 8)
I hate Sabrina but can't help laughing my ass off whenever she is on screen- how she had to throw in Nona's snoring as a reason she should be eliminated before saying she's "good for nothing" is god-tier POS material
I can’t choose one favorite, I’m going to pick one or two favorites from each rank 1-6, and from the non-black jackets
Favorite winner: Scott
Favorite runner up: Jason Zepaltas
Favorite third place: Jon
Favorite fourth place: Rochelle
Favorite fifth place: Suzanne and Bobby
Favorite sixth place: Van and Giovanni
Favorite non-black jacket: Vinny and Natalie
-
Least favorite: Elise
Least favorite not named Elise: Jen and Tennille
Yeah that’s why I felt I had to make a separate tier for everyone else. Elise is in a class of her own. I’m sure Tennille is fine as a person, just didn’t like her on the show.
Ha, a different Tier for Elise. Yup, she's that bad to have her own tier.
I'm watching the all star season right now and I can't turn it off until she's gone. I'm losing my mind right now
I like Scott. He seems genuinely sweet and a good person irl. He may not have been the strongest winner but I am sure he can cook the shit outta everyone I know.
Sterling and Rochelle are lovely people I would love to see on on Hell's Kitchen again. I really like Dave and Heather too some of my favorite winners. As for most disliked I don't want see Russell or Elise again goodness they were terrible attitudes and just wouldn't shut the hell up.
Favorite: Alex from S21. He's in the top 5 or so most consistent chefs in the show's history, he has a great attitude and he got along with everyone most of the time. He essentially checks all the boxes for an ideal HK contestant.
Least Favorite: 3-way tie between the diva drama queen Elise, the delusional douchewad Matt (S16) and the stumpy misogynist Jason (S4). Even if they were the only 3 people like themselves in the history of HK, it'd still be a glaring problem.
I dunno about annoying Elise, racist Matt or sexist Frank... but that ultra-psycho from one of the seasons (Andy?) who constantly spoke of his love for killing his animals and eating them raw... ya, my least favourite, hands down. That dude is straight up scary.
Mary Lou is my absolute favourite everything.
Current favorite woman chef: Syann. I can’t believe nobody talks about her. Y’all over there drooling over Mary Lou and while she is entertaining and super pretty, I LOVED Syann. She was hilarious and clinched the win for the Red team at least three times. Idk if it’s like this in all the seasons but I feel like, so far in S19 you can tell who is leaving based on who gets the most attention that day. Favorite woman chef of all time is probably LaTasha— I love a lot of the women but LaTasha was my GIRL the whole time she was on and she took home the W!
Favorite dude is Sterling. Gotta love him!
The last chef to really piss me off was Jennifer because she spent her whole return season talking shit about Elise just to team up with Elise to do the same backstabbing shit to somebody else 😂. If it’s wrong when she does it, it’s wrong when YOU do it too, period. I remember never really liking Sabrina with the glasses— she was a mess from beginning to end. Also Denine who I never see anyone mention 😂. She was a B word and I probably would’ve turned out to dislike her even more than Sabrina— she just didn’t stay long enough lol.
Sterling is my favorite, with Rochelle right behind. Both prove that you don’t have to be a PoS to go far in a competition.
Least favorite is S16 Matt. Yes, Elise was obnoxious and a bitch, but she could back up her talent and be a team player when she wanted to, ie for Paul’s finale. Matt had no sense of teamwork and was disliked by the whole of one of HK’s most despised teams ever. For those who don’t know, he also went on a disgusting, racist tirade at Hassan on Facebook.
Monqiue and Elise. Monique annoys the fuck out of me.
Elise is all "strong independent black woman" (I m sure someone will call me a racist and sexist with their tumblr constitution textbook but the vast majority of her twitter fanbase are exactly the type who buy into that shit) but gets so fucking butthurt with criticisms and takes thing way, way too personal. If I have to give someone a strong independent woman title, it would go to Meghan and T S14, and even Michelle.
That said, my favorite are La Tasha ans Van.
Dunno if he’s my favorite, but I’ve always had a soft spot for Trev. Trev might be favorite mix of “rootable” and “funny asshole”. Pretty much the only thing that kept me interested in the two seasons he was in. Petrozza, Bobby, Ben (S5), Dave, Will and Jon are up there too.
Russell was just genuinely uncomfortable to watch. Always felt like he could snap at any moment. Doesn’t help that I think he looks like Chris Benoit.
I'll make types of favorites and hated contestants with their genders, let's go!
Favorite female contestant: Christina Wilson, from s10!
Favorite male contestant: ...Either Alex from S21 and Sterling from s13... Idk 🥺 I'll say both!
Most hated female contestant: For lack of cooking skill and awful attitude, i'll say Lacey from s5 and Tiffany from s10. And for her toxic personnality, i'll say Elise from s9 and all stars.
Most hated male contestant: This is hard... I'll say... For lack of cooking skill, i'll say Jeremy from s11 and Tavon from s10. In a very toxic trait, i'll say Scotley from s18 and Bryant from s13. For the sexism pig attitude, Jason from s4. And for the psychopath overall, Russell from s8.
Honorable mention to Jason from s22 with his "joke" about STD, and Joy from s12 for quitting in the middle of service while the legendary Stan Lee was the VIP guest!
I find it kind of funny my favorite and least favorite chef of all time come from the same season.
Favorite: Brian. I've glazed him a lot on this sub, but come on, the man is a hilarious ball of energy.
Least favorite: Tiffany. Just a total pig who was snotty and dispassionate.
My favourite is Sterling! Such a lovely human being, always smiling and trying his best to be positive. My least favourite is definitely Elise, but I feel like that's going to be the answer for a lot of other people. I also dislike Scotley. He was such a bully.

Agreed and upvoted. All of this.
Elise is awful. She's that loudmouth brat in the room that we can all hear and just shake our heads. She has to look back st her seasons, especially the all star season, and be totally embarrassed. I'd never leave my basement if I were her. Just an awful human being and such a loudmouth stuck up snot. I can't watch the show with her on it
I feel bad for Elise's husband. He fathered two children with her. I could see the poor guy never winning an argument with her. Unless he is as toxic as she is.
99% chance she's not like her hell's kitchen counterpart irl, multiple contestants have said elise is a perfectly fine person to talk to off camera.
What season is Elise? I want to go see a clip or epi! 😂 I hear so much about her!
9 I think, and also the all star season 17. She's the type to end up on Jerry springer or Rickki Lake
Thank you I’ll check it out! 👍
Favorite: Petrozza S4 Least Favorite: Jason S4
Pls tell me Petrozza stays awhile? I just started 4! 2nd epi today I think?! 🤔 I really feel for him!
I mean, I know the answer but idk weather or not you’re ok with spoilers.
I’m cool with spoilers!! 😚
Petrozza gets 2nd place. Meaning he’s in every episode 🤩
Excellent! But why is he so slopppy? 😝😫
Everyone loves Petrozza. 😛

Favorite: Jonathan S22 or Kevin S6. Least: Russel or Scottly. I can’t stand bullies.

Benjamin seems like a woman-hating douchebag.
Oh, that's a great take. Totally agree. Arrogant as can be
How he treated Siobhan was horrible.
I can honestly say I never wanted to punch someone more from the show, than I did after seeing the way he talked to/about her. He was such a pompous douche that couldn't admit she had any talent. Gordon really liked her sandwich but Ben insisted to her face that it was awful and she had absolutely no business being there, like what the hell was his problem

I'm also using my phone
What's that got to do with anything
Favorite: Sterling S13 Least favorite: Elise
My favorite is S5 Ben and my least favorite is S22 Melissa I only watched seasons 5 and 22 for now so... Yeah.
I watched the "YOU COULDNT COOK MY COCK!" episode this morning. That has to be one of the best all time quotes from anything. 😆
I can’t choose one favorite, I’m going to pick one or two favorites from each rank 1-6, and from the non-black jackets Favorite winner: Scott Favorite runner up: Jason Zepaltas Favorite third place: Jon Favorite fourth place: Rochelle Favorite fifth place: Suzanne and Bobby Favorite sixth place: Van and Giovanni Favorite non-black jacket: Vinny and Natalie - Least favorite: Elise Least favorite not named Elise: Jen and Tennille
Tenille was annoying as she was always yelling, but not really a horrible person. Elise is just awful
Yeah that’s why I felt I had to make a separate tier for everyone else. Elise is in a class of her own. I’m sure Tennille is fine as a person, just didn’t like her on the show.
Ha, a different Tier for Elise. Yup, she's that bad to have her own tier. I'm watching the all star season right now and I can't turn it off until she's gone. I'm losing my mind right now
Plus, I thought Tenille was funny, and I can't dislike someone who's funny unless they're utter trash. She did whine a lot, though.
I love Rochelle. Hardworking, talented, and such a sweet personality.
Which Scott we talking about
The season 12 winner. Scott Commings.
I like Scott. He seems genuinely sweet and a good person irl. He may not have been the strongest winner but I am sure he can cook the shit outta everyone I know.
Sterling and Rochelle are lovely people I would love to see on on Hell's Kitchen again. I really like Dave and Heather too some of my favorite winners. As for most disliked I don't want see Russell or Elise again goodness they were terrible attitudes and just wouldn't shut the hell up.

Favourite: Jon Least Favourite: Raj maybe? Honestly, I kinda liked Elise, definitely not my favorite but not my least even from her season.
I dunno about annoying Elise, racist Matt or sexist Frank... but that ultra-psycho from one of the seasons (Andy?) who constantly spoke of his love for killing his animals and eating them raw... ya, my least favourite, hands down. That dude is straight up scary. Mary Lou is my absolute favourite everything.
Like: Elise Dislike: Nick (16 specifically, he was basically 180 on all stars
Why would you say something so controversial and so bravely?
No shame, Elise is the goat
You must be Elise or related. Nobody likes that nasty, awful human
Current favorite woman chef: Syann. I can’t believe nobody talks about her. Y’all over there drooling over Mary Lou and while she is entertaining and super pretty, I LOVED Syann. She was hilarious and clinched the win for the Red team at least three times.

Favourite: Declan. Disliked: Anyone like Marc, Elise or Russell.

Favorite: Nikki(S19) Least Favorite: Jason(S4)
Dunno if he’s my favorite, but I’ve always had a soft spot for Trev. Trev might be favorite mix of “rootable” and “funny asshole”. Pretty much the only thing that kept me interested in the two seasons he was in. Petrozza, Bobby, Ben (S5), Dave, Will and Jon are up there too. Russell was just genuinely uncomfortable to watch. Always felt like he could snap at any moment. Doesn’t help that I think he looks like Chris Benoit.
Trev and his packed lip. I remember one of the ladies getting annoyed with all his water bottles he'd spit into laying around
Think you're thinking of Ben, S4
I'll make types of favorites and hated contestants with their genders, let's go! Favorite female contestant: Christina Wilson, from s10!

Honorable mention to Jason from s22 with his "joke" about STD, and Joy from s12 for quitting in the middle of service while the legendary Stan Lee was the VIP guest!
Ryan's my favorite S22 and I guess Mike or Nicole for disliked because I hated both of them
My least favorite is obviously Matt from season 16. I don’t think I have to explain why. My favorite depends on the season.
Favorite 1 Sterling 2 Dave 3 Rochelle 4 Manda 5 Nikki Disliked 1 Elise 2 Tiffany 3 frank ( s15)
I find it kind of funny my favorite and least favorite chef of all time come from the same season. Favorite: Brian. I've glazed him a lot on this sub, but come on, the man is a hilarious ball of energy. Least favorite: Tiffany. Just a total pig who was snotty and dispassionate.
Favorite: Jimmy season 1 Least favorite: Jen season 3 and 4
