Cake Boss: Next Great Baker

After all watching all four seasons, I have to say I'm really disappointed with Buddy. He pits the contestants against each other and tries to make himself the star of every show. I will say the fourth season redeemed itself from much of the cutthroat competition, but it was still there.

I guess some people like that kind of competition, and Buddy's big ego, but for me I want to see great cakes. That's why I sat through all four seasons.

All the bakers (at least that's what they think they are) compete to please only buddy and his family, including his kids!! First, This competition does not have any QUALIFIED JUDGES! And there is so much shouting, cursing and fighting. The participants are everything but talented. After given 8 hours for baking, they prepare such a mess. Their cakes have just few crafted pieces from the challenge description assembled together. There was not a single cake in the show which can make you say WOW. They should learn from "CHOPPED" about how a cooking competition should be. Would not waste time watching buddy's shows again. NEVER!

I like this show, but I don't like the yelling. Especially when it comes to Buddy. He can be endearing, but when he yells at the contestants it's too much. These contestants don't owe him anything. They are there to better themselves, not him. It's their contest to win or lose. They don't him running them down. I'm sure they feel bad enough about losing.

I don't like it when the contestants yell either. But they sure like to keep the ones that yell around for a while. I guess they think it's good TV, but UGH!!!
