Hottoceame The Age of Commercialism

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Irishchatter Who doesn't like seeing the decorations on every cakes that Buddy does? They are colorful, yummy looking and it makes you feel you want to have the exact cakes he does on your birthday! However, i just don't like the fact himself and his family don't really consider Carlos Bakery as a proper bakery. I mean, every food that's in the States is always big, fattening and disgusting so I think the cakes they make would fit onto those categories.As some reviewer said on here, I was surprised to see that they don't go with the health and safety guidelines when they are handling the cakes. I wonder too if any healthy and safety officer would even go into the place, and see whats wrong with it? They don't appear really to be wearing gloves, head nets or even proper clothing to protect themselves from getting dirty! I know Buddy has a coat but the rest of them only wear aprons and thats really not enough to cover themselves! That is kinda worrying to show this as a television programme on a well known channel and TLC is a big paid company!The show can be sort of entertaining but its bland at the same time. Thats why I would give it a 4/10 because its not that well loved or not even great at the same time.....

ikrani I have seen 20 seconds of Jersey Shore, and it was terrible. I have seen 10 seconds of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, and it's even worse. In fact, every reality show that I've seen even a glimmer of has left me with nothing but disgust to think that such people find its horrible cast of horrible people as entertaining.But not Cake Boss. FDA violations aside, this show is justified in its tension and melodrama. Unlike other shows which feature either jobless party-goers or cutthroat contest competitors, Cake Boss delivers a cast of characters that are tolerable and I'd venture to even call likable.They have a real job, which already puts them above previously mentioned reality show stars, and they have a legitimate reason to be stressed or a bit tense while working: they have a time frame within which to finish whatever overdecorated creation they're creating while still running the store for the walk-in customers.And when they pull a mean-spirited shenanigan, it's not your foul-mouthed drunken-minded prank, oh no, it is CALCULATED, DIABOLICAL meanness. Best example would be when Buddy ("The Cake Boss") found out that one of his brothers (I think) had a fear of clowns. So what does he do? Why, have a clown come in and help his bro get over his fear with a hug (and a lot of panicking). That was so spectacularly evil that I still remember it to this day.Is the show good? Eh, it's all right. But the fact that its characters aren't outright despicable towards one another, coupled with the fact that the cakes they make are cool, plus the fact that they usually find some way of delivering them to the wackiest people on the face of the Earth elevates this show above the rest of its competitors in what I consider the worst genre of television to ever exist.

bernardverna Okay, so I was watching Law and Order: SUV (A must watch show) and then my mother turned the channel to this show. And I have to say, It's not that bad, kind of average. Basically it's about a cake shop, "Carlos cakes," but most importantly its workers. They bicker back and forth during the cake building, but it mostly to liven up the show a little. The cakes are amazing by the way, in one episode they even built a whole bus station (I think it was). There is one major thing I don't like about the show, they show you what the cake will look like at the beginning of the show. That kind of ruins the bang when they finish it at the end. After watching two episodes of it, I could say it's a good show to watch when you're favorites shows aren't on and you're bored.

jrohara-2 I was excited to watch this show as I love Ace of Cakes. The first few minutes were promising, a great Italian family and their delicious looking cakes! After watching two episodes that both had clearly fake reality moments put in ruined the show. In one episode a bride to be pours ugly icing all over the cake when he steps out of the room and in another someone gets painters to paint the kitchen hot pink...fake situations and even worse reactions by the cast. These were only of a few of many unbelievable moments. Why can't we watch this clearly interesting family and talented bakers make cakes...to me that would be much more entertaining!
