Joly Herman Common Sense Media As a folksy and colorful baking competition that runs with the small-town tradition of baking for state fairs, this competition sticks to a formula. Aug 26, 2024 Full Review Eddie Mair Sunday Times (UK) Gorgeous creations, but the format feels soggy, not helped by the host, the actor Jason Biggs, who is likeable but superfluous in the first episode. Perhaps when they bake apple pies he will come into his own. Aug 13, 2024 Full Review Liz Kocan Decider Blue Ribbon Baking Championship definitely scratches a baking TV itch, it’s comforting family fun that keeps its focus on positivity rather than cutthroat competition... Aug 13, 2024 Full Review Andy Dehnart Reality Blurred It's a perfectly palatable baking competition, even though there is nothing new here. It's just a mostly well-done version of something we've seen before. Rated: B- Aug 9, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Harry C I could not have liked this show any less. It's literally just the Great British Baking Show with annoying hosts. They are all ridiculously obnoxious. I don't know what made them decide to throw Sandra Lee into this already-hot mess, but I just can't stand her. She brought nothing but negativity to the show. She and Jason (and the other guys) were very unnecessarily condescending to the contestants. Like, they're not stupid, they're adults, so stop treating them like they're four years old. I'm genuinely surprised at how many good reviews this garbage got. I would have given zero stars if it were an option. Rage-watched my way through the first episode but quit after Larry got sent home. Sending the people who made this dumb show a bill for the hour of my life they wasted. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/06/24 Full Review Jamie B I am not finished with the series but I was disappointed that Nathan won a couple of the competitions with out actually baking anything. In a baking competition having a baked element should always be a requirement. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/07/24 Full Review Christine M I really enjoyed the show and the judges! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/15/24 Full Review Soulless G I throughly enjoyed the show. I'm not sure why so many people complain about Sandra's outfits. It comes off as bitter. I thought they were fun and fitting for the vibrant theme of the show. The show itself pretty wholesome. Many compare it to the Great British Baking Show, but I feel like it's different enough to where it stands on its own. The contests and judges seemed to geniuly enjoy being on the show. My only real critic would be that the winners of the first challenge each episode recieved an award or "upper hand" in each episode. I hope they continue to make more seasons. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/07/24 Full Review felix d This show is absolutely boring. The host's are not connecting with the audience. Jason is way to over the top jolly. Sara whatever she is, is trying to get back in the light of stardom. Her outfits have the 60s vibe. Everyone is trying to find the next British baking show. There is only one Paul Hollywood and prue. Stop trying. Please cancel this show or retool it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/24/24 Full Review Richard C I don't think that it's fair that they allowed an individual who bakes and sells bakery goods to participate against those who are home bakers. The indivdual spoke to everyone about his shop and customers during every challenge, and he won the competition. He was a good baker but I feel that he had an unfair advantage and am surprised that it was allowed. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
