The Great Canadian Baking Show

We enjoyed season 1, 2 and 4, meeting contestants from across the country, and bring impressed by the creations they bake. The hosts in season 3 are so cringe-y though, and season 4 isn't much better. I miss Dan Levy!

Leave it to CBC to take a good show and ruin it with horrible casting. Im not sure if the casting is in charge of the contestants too, but its clear they pick certain types before bringing talented bakers on the show. The hosts of this show have to be the worst hosts in all of television? Good god its bad. A couple of teenage kids winging it would make better hosts.

Yes, the judges are certainly less harsh than the British original. This is mostly a problem in season one - their criticism becomes harsher and more constructive as they find their stride. When compared to the original show, the editing and casting choices are obviously not as good. If this was an original show being judged on its own merits, and not being compared to the much higher budget Great British Bake Off, it'd stand high above other Canadian attempts at this formula.

Change the casting. The male judge and the 2 hosts are absolutely terrible. The female judge is likeable and personable. Whoever does the casting needs to go as well! I probably watch 1/3 and fast forward the other 2/3's. Canadian version is the worst out of all the countries.

I loved the first 2 seasons. I started to watch the 3rd season and honestly not sure if I will finish it...the new hosts are sooooo annoying, overbearing.....just terrible.
