Sugar Rush

Show is fine, just your average baking competition but the host is terrible. He takes regular situations and makes them awkward with his weird commentary. Literally anyone else could do that job better.

I don't know why so many other reviewers are criticizing the host. It is obvious that there is a bit more planning that goes on behind the scenes, since the contestants have access to things that wouldn't normally be in a standard pastry kitchen. However, I think the host adds a lot of enthusiasm to the show. One of the things I love is that it is always surprising and enjoyable, but doesn't have the negative drama that is present on some cooking shows. This is one show that my husband, my 5 yr old granddaughter and I can all watch together.

Netflix has got so much to love here. On one hand, the fact that the contestants are professional bakers means we get to see some legendary cakes - which is exactly what I want to see.

But on the other hand, the presenter - he's trying way too hard - and like all these overly Americanised shows, there's no character to any of it.

The judges are interesting enough; maybe with a few more episodes I'll get to like them, but this is a show about cakes and that's what you're getting.

Overall, I'll watch all 8 episodes and I'll savour every moment.

Netflix if you're watching, Sugar Rush is a decent enough show, it just needs a few tweaks

I think the ability to save your time is a neat twist but I think a cool feature to announce the elimination would be is if they had the breakers for each stations lights in another room and then they left to discuss it and without saying a word just flip off their lights

I really enjoy this show and I'm super happy the second season is out. I just enjoy it for what it is: something fun and easy to watch on a rainy Saturday when I need a break! I love that each episode is a stand-alone so I can just watch at random. I don't mind the host or judges at all. I love all the bright colours and fun, current themes for the challenges. I realize there is more behind the scenes planning put into their creations but I don't care. A Netflix win for me!
