That comedic vibe is really what makes Baking It distinctive from TGBBS. ... If you want a gentle, family-friendly baking show that’s pretty funny, then Baking It is a good choice to watch over the holidays. Rudolph and Samberg are on their A-game here, but the opinionated grannies are the show’s secret weapon.

Ms. Rudolph and Mr. Samberg, who admit that their close bond is rooted in "the one half of one season where we overlapped" on "Saturday Night Live," have virtually no chemistry and no material. They also have a show with no focus. What they do have are a group of very likable contestants, in teams of two—a brother and sister, a father and son, a husband and wife, a husband and husband—who are set loose at their baking stations with the most unfocused of assignments.
