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.
