October 2 - 8, 2022 WHATS UP! T7 BY MICHELLE ROSE TV Media A fter six seasons and several spinoffs, "Nailed It!" is defy- ing the odds and still going strong without feeling the need to shake things up each season — not dramatical- ly, anyway. Emmy-nominated host Ni- cole Byer ("Grand Crew") and head judge Jacques Torres ("On the Money") are back this week for a seventh season, which drops Wednesday, Oct. 5, on Netflix. The series hasn't really followed a set schedule when it comes to releasing new seasons, but there's a rea- son for the October launch date: this time, all the chal- lenges and treats are Hallow- een-themed. Here is how Netflix de- scribes "Nailed It! Hallow- een": "The Emmy-nominated series is back with a season full of tricks and treats as we celebrate Halloween. Featur- ing ghoulish surprises from some favorite Netflix shows — 'Umbrella Academy,' 'Cobra Kai' and 'The Witcher,' the desserts are intentionally scary this time!" (It's worth noting all three series are Net- flix originals.) It should be fun to watch a new batch of cheerfully inept bakers as they try to replicate absurdly complicated cakes and candy-coated confections. As always, winners are re- warded with a $10,000 cash prize and the "Nailed It!" tro- phy. Part of the show's continued success can be attributed to its feel-good fusion of competi- tion, kindness and comedy. "Nailed It!" is basically disas- ter as entertainment in cake form, but the laughs are never mean-spirited because most viewers know we probably wouldn't fare much better. We can all relate to a less-than- perfect execution, and we ad- mire the contestants' willing- ness to simply try. The judges — Byer, Torres and a different guest judge in each episode — recognize this, and they gener- ally do a good job of encourag- ing contestants, even if the creations turn out to be partic- ularly messy and less than tasty. Season 7 of "Nailed It!" only consists of four episodes in- stead of the usual six to eight installments — that's because production was suspended earlier this year due to a labor dispute. Still, filming was completed on the four new ep- isodes that will be available to stream on Netflix beginning Wednesday, Oct. 5. Monstrous messterpieces 'Nailed It!
