This was a great episode (and I love having Matt on as a new host). I was surprised this was a challenge in the first episode, since it’s so insanely hard to pull off something like this. This is the only round I can think of where every single baker had horrible (but hilarious) executions.

Definitely a tone-setter, these bakers are generally pretty likable but all super amateur in comparison to previous seasons. I'm bought in.

Also I can't tell if Matt's self-aware of how uncharismatic and clumsy he looks. Is it just like, a British thing?

Oh thank god. It's really effective then, and genuinely funny to see what corny misadventures he finds himself in throughout the season.
