MasterChef

MasterChef is an American competitive cooking reality TV show based on the original British series of the same name, open to amateur and home chefs. Produced by Shine America and One Potato Two Potato, it debuted on July 27, 2010 on the Fox network, following the professional cooking competition series, Hell's Kitchen.

For the first 5 seasons, the series starred celebrity chefs Gordon Ramsay (the co-creator of the series and Hell's Kitchen), Graham Elliott, and restaurateur Joe Bastianich. From Seasons 6–8, pastry chef Christina Tosi temporarily replaced Bastianich, who eventually returned as the third judge. Since Season 8, chef Aarón Sanchez joined as the new second judge, replacing Graham Elliot. On Season 7, in place of a third judge, there were a series of guest judges, one of which was Sanchez. On September 19, 2018, it was announced that the series had been renewed for a tenth season, set to premiere May 29, 2019 with Ramsay, Sanchez, and Bastianich reprising their roles as judges/hosts respectively.
