While some of the stuff he is involved in is over-produced with sets and stuff and given that he's a good TV-performer, he does exaggerate. But I have always liked the Kitchen Nightmares stuff, especially when the show doesn't renovate their restaurants but instead just solves and points out the real problems.
As far as reality shows go, Gordons stuff is one of the few things I'm willing to watch.
I never understood why these god awful restaurants would let someone go and film all their shit. I mean, how retarded are they?

Seems like suicide indeed. But as they say all good PR is good PR. Not true at all tho.
There is a site that tracks which restaurants have remained opened after an episode. Most are closed.
They would have closed anyway, as I understand these are places that are failing and they hope Ramsay will save them. The owners might be delusional that the food is great, but they are not ignorant of the fact they are losing money.
Turns out the new equipment they are being given by Ramsey's team and a bit of PR about how Ramsay has designed/approved of the new menu is not enough to attract so many customers. Whether the process is actually accelerated even if word gets out about how nasty their kitchen is, is another matter, but I don't think they would have remained open even without Ramsay.

Not Ramsey's fault is it? Most were complete and utter fuckwits to begin with, most still remain the same
Well, yeah, although I'll say there are places that struggle to survive even if they are pretty good so sometimes you are just fucked. So these "complete and utter fuckwits" have it even worse.
And of course Ramsay's team handpicks the shittiest places, with the most delusional owners they can find. That's their job. They probably ask if they can take a look into the kitchen and storage space to "see if there are some improvements that can be made, in order to consider you eligible for our show", and if they see the storage being a filthy place they leave happy, because they know they secured where they will be filming next week...
