Zumbo's Just Desserts

The concept of show is fun and the desserts are amazing. But, it's really difficult to watch because Gigi is incredibly annoying, Rachel is very unlikeable, and like Zumbo, both have zero personality.

Gigi - annoying....just shut it. That clock - could it be any louder?

Daniel? Such an arse. Love to hate him --- oh he is so horrid.

I came to the comments on this show just to make sure I'm not the only one who doesn't understand Gigi's role on the show or who cringes every time she shouts at the bakers.

I feel bad for her because I'm sure she's been directed by the show's producers to act the way she does, but how could anyone have thought she would be a good addition to the show?

It's still a fun show to watch - I like the formatting with one challenge for all contestants and then one with just two.

I agree with other reviewers that the editing often makes it fairly obvious who's going to win or lose. It also seems like the producers try to get the contestants to say braggy things and then make them look foolish.

I liked season one but season two was less enjoyable, because the justifications behind the ratings of the desserts were confusing at some points and I often felt like the wrong people had to leave. It also seemed like they were favoring one contestant the whole time. Especially the finale of S2 was a disappointment for me, in my opinion, the favoritism really jumped out and the better baker was robbed.

Even with Gigi cracking her whip the first season far outshined the season two.

In the 2nd season it seemed like the final two contestants were preordained to be there. These two could be way off or totally miss the brief yet they still came out ahead.

Destiny, I think not.
