The Great Canadian Baking Show: Season 3

November 9, 2019 2:37 PM - Season 3 (Full Season)

It's another baking show spin-off, this time in Canada! Do you long for the days of Mel and Sue? The old GBBO niceness? Praise instead of tears? Do you wish the judges had more adventurous palates? Do you miss the focus on technique? Then GCBS is for you!

I've seen the first two seasons, which were good, but the new judge and new hosts are delightful and so are the bakers. Watching it really highlighted how far afield GBBO has gone from its roots. Also: LIAM.

Darn you! Does anyone know where this can be streamed in the US, if at all?

I had to use . . . unofficial routes.

Yes! I loved this season. Carolyn and Aurora are fantastic hosts and the judges are so nice!

This article shows that the judges are aware of flavours they don't personally like and try not to penalize contestants for it.

I'm really enjoying this, everyone is so different, and so nice, it makes for very relaxing tv. Though I am hungry a lot...
I like how so many of them react when being told that they are leaving the show; there's first a wistful, knowing nod, like they were totally expecting it. Then the other bakers look really sad and hug them, and then the person leaving puts on a brave smile, and says "ooh, it'ok" and comforts the other bakers. It's so sweet and non-competitive.
