There is a commercial for Fanduel that runs during Cleveland Guardian's games. The young woman in the commercial looks very young, skimpy top, she is sort of hunched in her posture, and she has one of those husky needs to clear her throat voices. It's bad enough that gambling is now a part of all major and college sports, but this commercial sends both hubby and I for the mute button.

Not sure if it's a Kleenex or Puff's commercial, but the kid with the snot bubble can please just go away. Right now. So so gross.

Wow, he looks so strange. Maybe some AI filtering also going on. Horrible commercial. More out-of-tune singing. Gah.

Yes they do, look up Dynamic Pricing. All retailers do this.

I was happy to see Luke get the win, but agree this was a mediocre season. The time constraints of each challenge need to be reconsidered IMO. I'd rather the contestants be given enough time to complete the sews, so their actual proficiency could be the test, not their ability to do rush jobs that end up a mess or not finished at all. I'm not a fan of the recycle 90 minute challenge either. The items don't end up as wearable pieces. So maybe give enough time for proper finishing, or change the challenge altogether. Maybe an alteration challenge, or a "copy this item" challenge. I think better machines should be used also, too many times the machines seem under-powered with too small a throat space.

Thank goodness Suzie went home. Never sewn a hook and eye before? Her huge pink puffy muppet outfit felt so ingratiating this week. Like she was wore something puffy to emulate Cristobal Balenciaga and influence the judges. Perhaps if she had focused on the challenges, and not worn huge awkward ill-fitting clothing she would have done better. Who can sew with those enormous puffy sleeves and bodices? I was disappointed for Luke that his collar was wonky. I'd be ok with any of the remaining 3 winning. But this season has not been as good as previous ones. Too many unfinished challenges, and just mediocre sewers.

Curtains or blinds need to be removed. Depending on the windows, they may tilt in for easier cleaning, but it's still a long process, especially if you want the outer sills cleaned. Sure, if you just want the inside of the windows cleaned, it may be easy, but not if you want both sides done well. Windows over sinks are difficult to get to. Slide and crank windows are a whole 'nother ballgame. Commercials like this one are extremely misleading.

I don't understand how Marcus lasted as long as he did. Am I the only one who really doesn't care for Suzy? I don't get the oversized poorly made stuff she wears. So many unfinished challenges this season.

I didn't realize this show was still being made. Personally, I can't stand either judge and stopped watching because of them, especially Cherish. She comes off very fake. I do like Liam, and was pleased to see him do well after his season on GBBS. He is a natural in front of the camera.

I think the wassup commercial was funny at first. It was just over played.

In watching previous seasons, I am reminded how much I liked Joe Lycett as the host. This guy is ok, but doesn't have the easy humor Joe had. Claudia Winkleman was ok I suppose, she got a tad over-the-top at times. Some of the contestants on the Baking Show have seemed like they were trying to be "characters" but not as ridiculous as US shows.

Ok, someone explain to me the Kayak Travel commercial with the older lady turning herself into a scarecrow. It is downright freaky, and would scare the crap out of little kids. Who are the ad execs who come up with this crap? And why do the companies pay for it? Burger King...I'm talking to you!

One of the reasons I rarely watch anything live on that channel. So gross and such a turn off.

I've sewn for many years, but the time constraints would quickly be my downfall. I've been rewatching previous seasons also. The show has really evolved since the first season.

Had anyone else been doing the gluten free cupcakes, I would have watched. But I won't watch Erica.
