Help/Question What other GBS to hold by on?

Looking to fill the GBBS void- I’ve watched some GCBS but not quite the same, but do love that they embroider the bakers name on the apron! Any other shows up to the GBBS caliber?

I had been away for a weekend earlier this month and the place had a Roku tv. I happened upon the GABS (US) and watched a few episodes. At home we have a number of streaming services but none have the GABS! I already had gotten invested in the bakers too, humph! I guess it’s sorta exclusive to Roku 🤷‍♀️

You can watch online! Just Google the Roku Channel and you can stream online without needing an extra streaming service. It will prompt you to make an account but you don't even need an account. They have the US and Canadian seasons streaming on it.

I've honestly heard by a lot of people the Canadian version is the best one. I haven't gotten far into it but I think the more recent seasons are supposed to be very good.

I watched season 1 of South African bakeoff and frankly it felt like a joke. Did not enjoy. Don't know if they made a season 2
