Apple TV announced today that Knife Edge: Chasing Michelin Stars has been renewed for a second season. The news comes seven months after the docuseries wrapped its 8-episode freshman run.

"Now more than ever, restaurants around the world are under enormous pressure to not just strive for perfection, but to survive. The economic tolls of an industry struggling mean the stakes have never been so high. With globally evolving dining standards, 'Knife Edge' reveals the stress, the pressure, the resilience needed to hold your nerve in the battle for greatness, it's honestly brutal. Personally, I continue to be so proud of the passion in our industry - the drive and ambition in those hungry newcomers, the rising talents and those indomitable chefs all continuing to push for Michelin's exacting recognition," said executive producer Gordon Ramsay.

"'Knife Edge: Chasing Michelin Stars' highlights the incredible stories of the world's most talented chefs as they strive for the ultimate accolade, while the bar rises every year and their appetite to succeed does not wane. Platforming the people behind these world-class restaurants helps build an understanding and appreciation for what it takes to survive in this remarkable and challenging industry," said host Jesse Burgess. "I'm very proud to be a part of it and we're looking forward to sharing more in season two on Apple TV."

The series takes viewers inside the emotionally charged, high-stakes world of international fine dining - capturing the pressure and ambition that define the road to Michelin recognition. With exclusive access over the course of the yearlong Michelin Guide season, the show follows the fates of elite chefs at some of the world's most unique and celebrated restaurants to determine if they will win, maintain, or lose that precious Star.
