We have not enjoyed the show this season near as much as before. What's wrong with repeating challenges from a few years ago instead of being so outlandish? And the new sidekick, Matt, is just plain annoying. Both he and Noel are too intrusive and way too much time is spent on their dingy behavior, especially this season. It is distracting and annoying. They need to get back to basics and focus on the baking, not the side show.
