Big article in today's Washington Post about Brother Andrew winning TGABS. A bit late, but still worth a read: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/voraciously/wp/2020/02/24/meet-the-friar-who-combined-flour-and-faith-to-win-the-great-american-baking-show/

I'm really surprised, I can't even remember when this was on last, & wasn't the last season incomplete because a judge got metooed, or am I thinking of another show?

That was season 3, airing 2017, where the last four episodes were unaired because judge Johnny Iuzzini was accused of sexual harrassment during the season. Sherry Yard replaced Iuzzini for seasons 4 and 5 and did a good job.

Huh, I have no memory of seasons 4 & 5, I wonder if I watched.

[MerBearHou]

I just read that Paul Hollywood and Prue Lieth will be the judges!  No Sherry Yard.  The show will appear on free Roku TV which I've never watched but will seek out.  Probably won't be on the schedule until late 2022.

Now, if we could just get Sue and Mel to be the hosts . . . Awesome.

[GaT]

Hmm, doesn't sound like I'll be watching this.

Per TVLine: * Ellie Kemper (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) and Zach Cherry (Severance) will co-host The Great American Baking Show, premiering with Season 6 on The Roku Channel in 2023.

So unless you get the Roku Channel, you're out of luck to see this.  Oh well.

Pretty sure it's free.  All you have to do is download the app.

I've never heard of either of those people so I don't know whether to be happy or shudder.

Oh cool, good to know -- thanks!

FYI, on Twitter they did say that the new season with the regular (non-celeb) bakers kicks off in early 2023.

[NotChristine]

FYI - Season premieres this Friday (May 5) on The Roku Channel, and it is already renewed for season 2.
