The hardcore fans of "Great...Bakeoff/Baking Show" who watch the original
on PBS never warmed to Iuzzini and were more unhappy when Paul Hollywood
replaced Mary Berry this season (Berry quit the franchise when it moved to
Channel 4 in the UK, stating that the show should've stayed on the
BBC--she's now doing cooking shows for the Beeb and I believe will be
hosting and judging a new competition series).  Add the fact that the first
week didn't get good numbers and ABC probably did the right thing.
