Worst Cooks in America Season 8 Episode 1 Fear the Worst

In the season 8 premiere of Worst Cooks in America, titled "Fear the Worst," Chef Anne Burrell and Chef Tyler Florence are back to transform a new batch of terrible cooks into culinary experts.

Sixteen of the worst cooks in America are welcomed into Boot Camp, each hoping to learn the skills necessary to impress their friends and family with delicious, homemade meals. The contestants are split into two teams: Red, led by Chef Anne, and Blue, led by Chef Tyler.

The first challenge of the season is to make their signature dishes, but with a twist - they must swap their ingredients with their fellow contestants. This causes chaos in the kitchen as the contestants attempt to navigate each other’s unique cooking styles and ingredient preferences.

After tasting all of the dishes, Chef Anne and Chef Tyler decide which team did better overall, with the losing team entering a "Danger Zone" where they must battle it out in individual challenges to determine who will go home.

The contestants enter the next challenge feeling confident, but quickly realize they may have underestimated the difficulty of Boot Camp. They are asked to make classic dishes using only a microwave, which proves to be a real challenge for most.

As the competition heats up, some contestants begin to show signs of improvement, while others struggle to keep up. The chefs take note of each performance and make the difficult decision of which contestant is not cutting it in the kitchen and must be sent home.

Overall, the season 8 premiere of Worst Cooks in America sets a high bar for the rest of the season with entertaining challenges, shocking mishaps, and unexpected twists. It’s clear that the contestants have their work cut out for them if they want to avoid elimination and ultimately become better cooks.
