The series premiered on April 14th, and to date has reached more than 10 million total viewers (across Food Network/Max/Discovery+) ranking as a Top 3 non-news/sports cable program on Sunday nights among both P/M 25-54 and averaged a 0.58 P25-54 and 0.59 W25-54 L+3 rating. The season to-date has resonated online as well, generating a total of 25M social impressions and 12M video views. 

“24 in 24: Last Chef Standing enthralled audiences as Food Network’s most ambitious and grueling culinary competition, one that is part culinary marathon and part social experiment,” said Betsy Ayala, Head of Content, Food, Warner Bros. Discovery. “Michael Symon and Esther Choi were a dynamic duo leading this intense competition that demanded the chefs push their skills, creativity, and stamina to the limit.
