Jonathan Bennet celebrates 2002's "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" by having the chefs transform moussaka for guest judge Nia Vardalos; the competitors turn sushi waffles into equally viral-worthy dishes and see whose mac and cheese wins them $10,000.
Jonathan Bennett heads back to 1994 with guest judge Wayne Knight as they challenge the chefs to create elevated dishes using '90s foods and an iconic grill; the competitors struggle to re-create accordion potatoes and a classic beef Wellington.
Jonathan Bennett challenges the chefs to make dishes using ingredients synonymous with the 1970s, but a fondue pot throws the new school chefs for a loop; the competitors take on Japanese soufflé pancakes and their own version of chicken Kiev.
Jennie Garth, star of 1993's 90210, helps Jonathan Bennett celebrate all things '90s with a fruity drink and dunkable cookies. Then, it's go small or go home as the chefs tackle trendy tiny foods before two chefs mix things up.
Inspired by guest judge Greg Louganis' iconic Olympic performance, host Jonathan Bennett has the chefs use beloved foods from 1984 -- Wheaties cereal, Fruit Roll-Ups and instant coffee -- and an Easy-Bake Oven to create beautifully elevated dishes that wow judges Eddie Jackson and Eddie Jackson Sr. Then, the competitors tackle the technically-difficult birria pizza and go head-to-head in the final round with different interpretations of baked Alaska.
On Wednesdays host Jonathan Bennett wears pink and will never stop trying to make "fetch" happen thanks to 2004's cult classic "Mean Girls." He tasks the chefs with making pizza rolls, a raw bison burger patty and Budweiser work in one cohesive dish ... all without overusing the beer's iconic Super Bowl catchphrase. In round two, the chefs create two very different interpretations of viral corn ribs, while the remaining two competitors try to impress judges Kathy Fang and Peter Fang in a battle of crepes Suzette.
In 1988, we were all singing "Tell It To My Heart" at the top of our lungs, including the one and only Taylor Dayne. She and host Jonathan Bennett turn their memories of the '80s into a unique challenge for the chefs involving Kit-Kats, Sunny D and a rib sandwich. Then, the chefs create their own viral-worthy version of Gigi Hadid's Spicy Vodka Pasta, and judges Julian and Beto Rodarte decide who's beef bourguignon will take the prize.
Host Jonathan Bennett goes old school with a trip back to 1953, when Campbell's soup, Spam and gelatin molds were all the rage, and the chefs will have to use a vintage 1950's meat grinder to create dishes of today. Then, it's smiles all around as the competitors take on the smiley fries food trend before judges Antonia Lofaso and Xea Myers decide which chef's cioppino is a real winner.
