The Great British Bake Off

Love this show. I will probably always love this show BUT Matt Lucas is not a good fit. The problem is the addition of Matt Lukas (who isn't quite as funny as he may think he is) forces Noel to play the "straight man" and that is not a good role for him. Sandy was a much better ying to Noel's yang. Still love the show, just not as much.

I love watching this show! I like that everyone is being treated respectfully and they're not trying to make a drama out of contestants' personal lives or try to up the pressure with stressful music, meanness or shouting or things like that.

Thanks to our English friends across the pond for creating this show! It's a fun and serious show, but the people always treat each other with respect and kindness (of course this no longer happens on American television shows). Me and my wife seriously love to watch it. It's slowly becoming a dream of mine to become a guest on this show :-)

I've been watching since the beginning. Original hosts Sue and Mel were terrific. Good friends chemistry, they were empathetic and kind to the contestants. When they left, Sandy and Noel came in. Loved Sandy but Noel irritates me. Sadly, Sandy left and Matt came in. Noel ramped up his in-your-face chats with contestants and has gotten way too handy. He's made contestants lose valuable time by constantly indulging in long, silly rambling conversations. His creepy faces to the camera are ridiculous. Matt is slightly better but not up to past standards. Bring in some hosts who aren't as attention-seeking as these two guys! Loved Mary, love Prue, and of course, the big guy with a steely demeanor and soft heart, Paul.

Each season a group of lovely human beings gather under the tent to bake their hearts out. Everything about this show is wholesome and kind. Love everything about it!
