Food Network competition show. (Although right after I typed that, the woman I was thinking of had something too salty, so maybe that wasn't her problem!)

Baking show alert! tonight (12/1) Mary Berry will be on the Great American Baking Show. No, it's not the GBBO, but it's Mary Berry. It's at 9:00pm Eastern time in my area, on ABC.
Yes! I love how Americans treat Mary Berry and the way British and American double entendres sneak in.
She does that little ... twinkle.
And the Americans all go "Did she just--?"
Ooh, thanks for the heads up!
Also did y'all see americas next top model is coming back, but no Tyra??
Rita Ora is no Tyra. I'm just saying. It also looks like neither of the Jays are attached and a whole new judge panel. Sniff.
With all that, I will still probably check out the first episode just to see what's what.
Top Chef: I am not really okay with where they chose to do the first quick fire. Even before the two people were decided. Ugh.
I watched the Great American Baking Show and was less than impressed. I thought it was a one-off, but it's an elimination series. I kind of liked the guy who decorated his bundt cake with cherries that he'd covered with edible (I assume) gold leaf.
It's a variant on the Great British Bake-Off, but they can't use the term Bake-Off in America, because the Pillsbury Company copyrighted that back in the 30s or something. Mary Berry is/was one of the judges of GBBO until the BBC sold the show to Channel 4 and three-quarters of the host team said they were going to stay with the BBC instead of going to the new boss.
