Baking It

Just feel like the hosts are trying too hard to be funny. Just talk to the bakers. Ask them what they love about baking. About their flavors. About their techniques. What's challenging about what they're doing. What works, what doesn't. I'm way more interested in that.

I love baking shows and have watched hundreds of hours worth of them. This is one of my favorites already! The teams were all friendly and nice and funny. Maya and Andy are very funny and know just when to put a joke in. The only reason I didn't give it a ten is because it's not a musical; I could do without the musical numbers here and there and the theme song at the beginning is too long.

The ONLY reason I'm watching this is because of Andy and Maya. There's 1000 cooking/baking shows and 10,000 holiday cooking/baking shows so this one stands out because of the hosts. Then the bakers are awesome and judges hilarious.

I will watch anything with these two hosts! This was utterly enjoyable. I laughed, got teary, those grandmas were a hoot and the contestants were charming.

A great holiday baking addition.

Please do more!

The contestants and challenges are fun. The grannies are simply delightful and a blast. However, most of the advertising implied Amy Poehler would be on the show for more than 6 seconds. But she is not. To be honest, the "comedic bits" with Maya and Andy after commercials are unwatchable...simply atrocious. I began fast forwarding through them for my own sanity. I'd enjoy it more if the grannies hosted instead. They have personality and great opinions and never feel like they're there to waste time. Maya and Andy seem ok when they interact with contestants, being more natural. The scripted bits must go!
