The Next Iron Chef: Redemption

Genre: Cooking

Premise: The first four seasons of ``The Next Iron Chef'' resulted in 34 chefs who competed on the show and lost. Season five, appropriately dubbed ``Redemption,'' brings back several former contestants for another chance at becoming an Iron Chef. Four contestants from season two and three chefs from the fourth season join two first-timers, Tim Love and Marcel Vigneron, in the competition, and for the first time in the show's history, an online tournament featuring four chefs -- two former contestants and two newcomers -- determines the 10th contestant. As usual, the contestants compete in weekly challenges that test the skills needed to be an Iron Chef, with a chef being eliminated each week by judges Donatella Arpaia, Simon Majumdar and Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian. The two finalists then face off to determine the winner. Alton Brown hosts.
