What to Expect from the New Season of Baking Show

The Great British Baking Show is coming back to PBS starting Friday, July 1st at 9/8c (check local listings). Whether you are a die-hard fan or new to the baking tent, here is what you can expect from the new season:

Paul Hollywood’s eyes striking doubt into souls

Finding yourself speaking in a British accent after watching the show

Mary Berry’s jacket collection will induce blazer-envy

Realizing you’re not at the contestant’s level

Why hello there, inferiority complex

Potentially crying when the contestants get sent home

Watching bread cool while time runs out is as exciting as the Kentucky Derby

Often innuendo-laced puns from Mel & Sue

Living in constant fear of a “soggy bottom”

Staring into the dark abyss of an oven door

It happens to the best of them.

Hearing British terms you’ll wish Americans used

Sponge means cake, biscuits mean cookies, and the list.

Baked goods you can’t pronounce

Kouign Amann, Povitica, Schicttorte, and more British recipes

Contestants who…like each other?

This isn’t an American reality show.

Don’t miss the season premiere of The Great British Baking Show on Friday, July 1 at 9/8c.
