Review of "Nailed It!"

Did Netflix's New Series

"Nailed It" nail it?

• I'm a giant fan of a well known great British baking show. 
• Also, I may have also taken the time to watch a certain Australian Dessert show on Netflix 
• So tonight I jumped at the chance to watch the new Netlix original "Nailed It" 

Only a few episodes in and I already have four reasons to watch this show:

4. The train wreck of bakes, makes it feel like maybe I could be a contestant and win ten thousand dollars.

• The one down side, I'm afraid the high prize price might make it to expensive to produce beyond the first season.
• A $300 prize would have worked going in, but at this point, no one would accept a dip.

3. The guest judges

•  Honestly, so far, they have been fascinating, and with only two people running the show, the guests get more screen time then any other show I've seen.
• They also have a panic button element where one of the judges actually helps contestants for 3 minutes
• Giving the guests even more direct contact with contestants

• The first judge was so far my favorite of all of them. 
• Here she is saying, "I want to give you credit for having courage and guts to do this."

2. The show is surprisingly encouraging

• Thanks to the vibrant host and French judge, the feeling of show is fun, light and loving.
• Event the worst creations get praise of some kind. 
• Which is just nice, after a long day at work.

1. And my number one reason I've enjoyed it:

• The show is fascinating study in watching a show grow into a better product.
• The first episode is a bit of train wreck its self with clunky editing and lack of focus.
• There are moments where we watch the host move the contestants from point A to point B...
• which should've never made it past a rough edit.
• But each episode incorporates a new element
• Quicker editing

• More focus on baking tips
• Judges explaining what the contestants are doing wrong and how we can avoid making the same mistakes.
• Graphics suddenly become a thing.
• Which I realize probably meant more money for editing.

• Tutorials are added which then gives materials for:
• active side by sides

• It's very educational to watch a train wreck of a show grow into a better version of it's self.

• It's cheesy, it's positive and it's educational both in baking and how TV shows are made and improved upon. 
• So...
•  I loved it. 
• Can't wait to watch more episodes.

• If you watch it, let me know what you think.
