Last season as a whole was disappointing. Did I fever dream them doing very little actual baking?

My guess is that they are very adverse to repeating bakes, but honestly - who cares? I’d rather see them making some more cupcakes than mispronounce guacamole sixty five times.

No you didn't, besides the complaints about themes etc the other complaint last year was that there was a lot of stuff that was more cooking than baking

They had to make s'mores, for fuck's sake.

Honestly it’s really gone downhill. Last few seasons have been crap. The one with Nadiya was the last good one.

I can’t believe I’m saying this (again) but Netflix’s Nailed It Baking Competition has the same vibe as GBB to me. Everyone is friendly, supportive and in good humor.

It hasn't been the same for me since the Mel and Sue era ended. I feel like once it became popular on Netflix it became more and more like American baking shows and lost its charm. With the host changes being the nail in the coffin.

I don't know why they have no issue repeating other themes/challenges (like bread week & bread sculptures) and then other weeks they insist on doing ridiculous challenges simply for the sake of not repeating something that was done on a previous season
