First season great, second session poor
The first season was charming with great hosts and judges, and had a lovely atmosphere. Second season with a change of hosts, judges, location and format lost all the charm of the first. 9/10 for first season, 5/10 for the second.
Bring back the original format.
I watched the first season and loved it and was excited to see season 2 was updated. I honestly was disappointed when I saw that we had new judges/hosts. I have never heard of either Judge Angelica or Tommy and found that their commentary on the meals seemed very repetitive. Also why are they showing the same recaps of the families almost every episode. I've seen the same script or dialalogue of Whites at least 3 times. We get it, you love British produce and you garden. I also liked that last season, they visited the families in their home. It's like they are trying to mimic great British bake off but with really bad producer handling it. Bottom line, judges were not likeable and just snarky.
Bring back the first season format and hosts
I just finished watching the first season which I really liked. I started the 2nd season to find the entire format changed including hosts and location. It was so bad I couldn't finish watching the 2nd episode, the new hosts have no chemistry, the new location is horrible and the contestants (as far as I saw) were pretty corny plus the food didn't even look that great. The first season was SO MUCH BETTER!!
Loved the first season
Loved the first season but the second season was a big letdown. The whole atmosphere of the first one was quite enjoyable and comforting.
Second season not as good as the first
Liked the first season, but second season judge continued to put one family through though they did not do as well as other families. Definitely think Tom should go. He was not voting for what the families cooked but who he wanted to win.
