I think the new GBBO was trying to focus more on Paul because he's the only member of the original GBBO judges/presenters left. Easily the least great part of the show IMO, but eh, I guess they didn't have any choice. This subject has come up before and other people have said they think it's to do with Paul being the "good" judge now because Prue is more of a hardass and I think there's some truth to that as well.

Mmm, totally. Plus I think the other three needed time to find their feet. I wonder whether it'll change at all now that Prue, Noel, and Sandi have more of an idea what they're doing on the show.

I think they're sort of settling in already... the first new season was rough, IMO. Prue's comments could be rather tactless at best and I think she's backed off that a little. Noel and Sandi still seem slightly awkward at times but I think that's the show's attempt to have them engage in whimsical banter a la Mel and Sue when they're not Mel and Sue.

I feel terrible for saying this, but I prefer Noel and Sandi to Mel and Sue. I know that what went down when they left wasn't good. But Mel and Sue just never worked for me and were the worst part of the show. Their humor just made me uncomfortable.

Prue is nowhere near as good as Mary, though. I miss Mary.

I love all four of them, but prefer Mel and Sue. They made a better duo in terms of comedy, IMO. I also liked that they had a lot more interaction with the bakers AND tasted the bakes and gave feedback on them, which Noel and Sandi don't do nearly as often.

I think the #1 thing that I still need to see from Noel and Sandi is them being as positive and enthusiastic and supportive as Mel & Sue often were. I think that's the biggest thing missing at this point - it was so important in the vibe of old GBBO.

This. Noel and Sandi aren't there yet.
