Marco Pierre White's (MPW) TV career across the pond has bombed.
The former three-Michelin-starred chef-turned-restaurateur had hoped to step into the footsteps of erstwhile protégé Gordon Ramsay by captivating US audiences but unfortunately his antics didn't go down too well.
NBC is pulling his show, Chopping Block, from primetime after just three weeks on the air, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The show apparently debuted "modestly" two weeks ago and fell in the ratings with each episode.
But that's not where the bad news ends. Chopping Block will be replaced with, wait for it, repeats of "Law & Order: Criminal Intent." Ouch.
On the bright side of things MPW will be returning to our screens soon with his second series of Hell's Kitchen.
Let's hope the celebrities have their Knorr stock cubes ready when entering the kitchen.
