Crime Scene Kitchen

I started watching halfway through season 1 but luckily could catch previous episodes on Demand. I'm currently watching season 2.

The premise of the show is genius. Contestants examine a kitchen that was used to bake an item and they have to figure out what was made. Most of the time, the contestants have different ideas of what was made and that's why it's so fun. You find out, along with the contestants, what was made at the end. It's always surprising and exciting. It makes me wish I had gone to pastry school.

Joel McHale is hilarious but not annoying. Curtis is ok and Yolanda is stunning and looks like she walked off a runway but knows her cakes and pastries. It's just a great show and I hope it sticks around for a long time.

As someone who loves cooking shows, I thought that it there were no more new ideas for cooking and baking shows. Then this show premiered and as soon as I saw the title, I thought, "That's a fantastic idea. Omg. You're gonna get every single millennial and Gen-X True Crime and Cooking Show fiend!"

I was nervous this show would not be good at first, but then the show was explained and it's, to be honest, genius. Bakers have two minutes in a Crime Scene Kitchen to find clues and put the clues together to figure out what to bake. Viewers at home who like to bake get to sit and go, "Oh. They obviously have to make an Upside down cake." It's fun!

Joel McHale is a great host as always and he has effortless banter with the contestants. None of his interactions seem forced or awkward, which can be a huge problem with baking shows.

The chef judges (Yolanda and Curtis) don't really do much. They taste the food and say, "If the mystery bake was... you might be safe." But they're not THAT important in the grand scheme of things.

Love that this show got a second season. I hope it continues to gain momentum. This is a great concept and it's super fun to watch.

Totally love this show! So different. You have to wait just like the bakers to see if they got it right!

It's surprisingly very funny and we learned a ton of new dresserts and baking techniques we've never heard of. I hope there's a season 2!

This combines two of my favorite things to watch! Investigations + baking! What a great concept. The bakers tend to be very likable and the guest judges add a nice dimension to the show. I enjoy the input of Joel as the host and the two standard judges. The show moves at a pretty quick pace so I also enjoy re-watching episodes to catch the tidbits I've missed. Please keep the episodes coming!
