Worst Cooks in America - Season 28 - Eps 1: Real Worst Cooks of Boot Camp
Heroes and villains from reality TV are trading drama for kitchen chaos, and chefs Jeff Mauro and Antonia Lofaso are on a mission to transform these infamous stars into competent cooks! To kick things off, Jeff and Antonia need to assess the culinary carnage, so they ask the recruits to whip up their go-to dinner party dish -- whether it's a hit or a miss. Then, in the main dish challenge, it's sink or swim as they butcher a whole fish and replicate an elegant seafood dish. The recruits who show potential will move on, while the rest sail off into the sunset.
