Over the last three years, its been the most-requested thing: Can you do an all-stars season?
That means every contestant on this season has been onHells Kitchenbefore, and knows the ropes.
As a result, competition in season 17 is due to be even more intense than ever before.

When they first came into the competition here, they had a decent skill and a nice position.
But some of these are coming back now as legitimate chefs.
Some have run their own businesses, Ramsay says.
So it was a melting pot of a multi-talented superego.
So it was a tough call, but all were brought back for the right reason.
And my God, how exciting are they when you see them?
They gave me a breath of fresh air.
They played mind games with each other from day one.
Theyre super feisty, super competitive, and they wouldnt let their guard down.
Season 17 ofHells Kitchenpremieres Friday night at 8 p.m.
