Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back is an American reality television series that aired on Fox from June 13, 2018 to May 12, 2020.

Starring chef Gordon Ramsay, the show features his travels across the United States, visiting failing restaurants in his 70-foot-long "Hell On Wheels" semi-truck that unfolds into a high-tech mobile kitchen, where the chefs are retrained. At first, a team is sent in to secretly survey the restaurant, with Ramsay eventually going undercover inside. He then tries to address the issues and revive each restaurant by retraining staff and refreshing the menu, culminating in a relaunch of the restaurant with a grand re-opening to the public after extensive renovations—all in just 24 hours. The format is similar to those of other programs such as Hotel Hell, Kitchen Nightmares, and Restaurant: Impossible.[1][2][3]

On June 27, 2018, Fox renewed Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back for a second season, which premiered on January 2, 2019.[4][5] The show was later renewed for a third season on July 26, 2019,[6] which premiered on January 7, 2020.[7]

On March 4, 2020, it was announced that a 2-hour "Save Our Town" special episode would be airing on May 12, in which Ramsay helps three businesses in Ellicott City, Maryland following their 2016 and 2018 floods.[8]
