It's Not A Good Thing
17 July 2020
I barely made it through 1 episode. I have enjoyed the Great British Baking Show, at least when it was hosted by Mel and Sue with Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood, so I thought I would give this a try. I wasted $9.99 by accidentally hitting the entire season tab instead of just the first episode. This series is appallingly bad. The host is stiff and Martha looks unwell. The contestants seem to be have chosen mostly for their ability to scream. When one of the contestants wins a trip to Martha's house it is almost painful to watch. Martha looks annoyed and put out to have a commoner in her kitchen and gives some tired and unoriginal "baking secrets". Who knew about gelatin? This is an extremely dumbed down version of the GBBS and just like everything produced now by the Food Network is filled with clownish, personality-driven programming. One star is too generous for this under-proved and over-baked, twice-baked stinking pile of wet batter.
