"I was surprised The Great British Baking Show did a season this year, but it was so wholesome to see how all of the contestants got along while quarantining with each other and to see the new friendships being formed. I always take comfort in seeing the gorgeous bakes, rolling my eyes at the cohosts' pun-filled intros, and soaking up the beauty of the English countryside. Once I saw the celebrity busts in the season premiere, I was hooked." — Chanel Vargas, editorial assistant, trending and viral features
"The Great British Baking Show has been the only show I really needed this year. It's cheesy, funny, heartwarming, and truly, does it get more soothing than a show where you watch British people bake and be kind to each other? No, I think not." — Tara Block, growth and strategic features content director
