A Batalha dos Chefs Raiz

Sandra Lee sucks. She has nothing of value to add. Bring in another Judge who has experience. Take her out and this show would be 100% better. Otherwise this was ok. The whole fair set up was unbelievable. But otherwise it could be fun. I watch the whole season but frustrated witj everything Sandr Lee said. Judge Bill Yosses had the only experienced value added critics. And Jason Biggs added a fun and realistic perspective. PLEASE remove Sandra Lee!

What I liked when Sandra Lee wasn't part of it was how normal all of the contestants were. It was fun and I would like to watch another season but won't if Sandra Lee is a part of it. Have I said how much Sandra Lee ruins this show?

I saw this and thought I would pop in. I don't bake any more as I don't eat baking, but I wanted to peek at the new cooking show.

I have never heard of Sandra Lee, but wow , the show producers have done her up to look like the personification of a Stepford Wife. She was painful to look at and whomever put her together needs to be fired.

Her attire is tacky. The first dress is an abomination with 50 cent plastic jewellery which is truly very awful; like play jewellery for little girls from the 1970s. The hot mess of a dress looks like someone blew up a taco, and the most absurd pair of boots I've ever seen. Picture an alien landing in a hillbilly town and trying to pass as a human, but got all the fashion decades mixed up and tried to go bold with all of them? What a nightmare. Who put her in that monstrosity?

She also talks with her hands and she should be coached out of that habit. Talking with your hands and partaking in arm waving is socially low brow. Besides, as she is standing there trying to wave in passing planes, some of that horrible plastic jewellery wrapped around her wrists and fingers could come flying off and take someone's eye out

Sometimes her mean girl shows; and I wonder if she was the mean girl back in high school. She does try, but there are some cracks in her personality.

I started episode 2, and Sandra's outfit almost made me go blind and it's such a shame she's been dressed like the local yocal.

The contestants made some fun things; very innovative. I don't like sweet desserts and probably would have enjoyed the items that were said to be not sweet enough. It was nice to see the contestants excel and Sandra redeemed herself when she started to cry over the perfect dessert.

A fun, light, baking competition hosted by wonderful culinary and comedic talent. I found it thoroughly entertaining. I don't understand how some reviewers can only criticize Sandra's wardrobe? I thought she was apropos and looked like her beautiful self. Jason Biggs is adorable and the White House chef is a great touch. The hosts seem to gel well and bring a nice vibe.

This show is about being good at all aspects of baking and holds true to its campy theme. It amazes me that so many people can win hundreds of competitions with their recipes. I have much to learn on the baking front and this show is a well put together and entertaining exhibition of talented bakers across the country.

I mainly gave this show a try because I recently watched The Escorts staring John Biggs and I was interested to see what else John Biggs had been in besides American Pie. Unfortunately John's character in this show is quite different to the bumbling, unlucky and shy guy you see in the American Pie movies and instead he comes across as a more mature guy who's jokes don't always land, but that's probably partly because the producers wanted to keep this show PG rated. However this does show that there might be more opportunities for John Biggs to play different characters in the future.

But boning...oops I mean John Biggs aside I enjoyed this show because straight away you get the impression that all the competitors including the guy who goes out first can bake really well and even when you get to the last show and it's a bit obvious who is the best baker the show also gives the impression that the other 2 finalists are still a force to be reckoned with. I also enjoyed this show because every round makes it seem like they are baking new and exciting things which always look and sound delicious.

But I think the prizes could have been better for each round though for example the $100,000 prize for winning the whole show is very tasty but in each show is a first and second round and all that the winners if these rounds get is a ribbon. Instead they could have given the winner of the first round $500 and then in the 2nd round 3rd place could have got $1,000, 2nd could have got $2,000 and 3rd could have got $3,000.

In one episode you also get to see the bakers making cakes for 50 fair goers and I would have liked to have seen more rounds like this but overall I had fun watching this show and I hope I don't have too long for a 2nd season.

August is a month when nothing new or compelling hits streaming. You get crime or cooking and an occasional good movie. I enjoyed seeing the desserts that came from the bakers. Made me want to eat pie, cake, and sweet rolls. So stay away from the show if you're dieting. The actual baking sequences are a waste of time. Part of watching these cooking shows is learning. GBBS always teaches you about how to be a better baker. This show does not. It does offer some attractive goodies. The contestants are not that interesting. That might be editing. And the main host is a distraction. She looks like holy roller Barbie. Her outfits are over the top flouncy creations that make her look like she's competing to look like a bad wedding cake. There are two other judges who are okay bur over shadowed by the Barbie judge. I made it through the series but only because after episode three I fast forwarded to see the desserts. I wasn't invested enough in the contestants to care who won. If Netflix renews this show they need to replace blonde with some one less over whelming. A grandma from Ohio maybe. Gotta go to the store to get some prebuilt pie. Bye bye.
