M6 launched the fifteenth season of the culinary competition on Wednesday March 13. Many viewers expressed their dissatisfaction with the duration of the program.

“No really, “Top Chef” is becoming nonsense: almost midnight and still not finished. Are you aware at M6 that viewers have to get up the next day to go to work?”, protests one of them. Others reacted with humor, saying: “ So guys, it's time to wrap up because the viewers are on the verge of death here”
