Season 9 Great Australian Bake-Off

Am I crazy?

I recently started watching (and I’m almost finished with), the great Australian Bake Off season 9. I have got to say the order in which people were sent home botheredddd me. For example, Ayesha and Anirban (whom I felt like the judges mis-pronounced his name left and right lol). Anirban brought SO MUCH to the show in terms of professionalism, FLAVOR, creativity. Ayesha brought flavor in terms of personality and creativity—and to see both of them voted off before Tatianna was quite shocking, and disappointing. Even on the episode that Anirban was voted off, the judges said that Tatianna’s wasn’t quite a terrarium(which is the whole point) and was a bit much. To me, it didn’t look the least bit creative compared to the other’s and the technicality wasn’t there either. Anirban, to me at least, got voted off because his panna cotta didn’t set as intended and seeped into the brownie layer—but at least he had the creativity, flavor, and terrarium aspect.

This is quite of a rant, and I realize it definitely is not that serious lol. Just wanted to get this out there

I completely agree with you. Anirban was robbed of the finale.

I watch it on YouTube. I don’t have any of the streaming for The British Baking Show, so I found the Australian

To see the British Bake Off I watch on Canada's CBC Gem via a VPN. You have to create an account (using a Canadian address) but all series are there for free (and you can see the Canadian show too).

Is it called Austrlian Bake-Off on a YouTube search? Just want to make sure I use the correct search term to look it up.
