Episodes
Cookie Week
Eight of America's best amateur bakers enter the tent for Cookie Week, where their creativity and technical ability are put to the test by judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith. The bakers start with filled tuiles in the Signature challenge, then take on a classic British biscuit for the Technical challenge. Finally, the Showstopper pushes the bakers to create a sweet depiction of a day in their life.
Cake Week
Cake Week brings a fresh set of challenges for the seven remaining bakers. In the Signature, they must present a fruit-forward bundt cake. Next, the Technical introduces a decadent Brooklyn favorite, challenging the bakers' ability to perfectly replicate this rich treat without a recipe. For the Showstopper, the bakers must create illusion cakes that reflect their ultimate cravings.
Bread Week
It's Bread Week, and the six remaining bakers will knead, proof, shape and hopefully rise above the competition. The Signature challenge starts with a duo of soda breads, testing the bakers' ability to juggle flavors. Then, in the Technical, they face a tricky custard-filled treat that demands precision in frying and filling. For the Showstopper, the bakers create a four-legged bread sculpture, whose design and structure must hold firm.
Pastry Week
The bakers are one step closer to the final, but Pastry Week will test their skills like never before. In the Signature, they tackle a tarte Tatin, a caramelized French classic. Then, they face a Technical that demands finesse with a fancy French pastry. Finally, the Showstopper asks for a decorative vertical pie whose layers tell a story through design and flavor. Only the bakers who master these pastry challenges will earn a place in the all-important semifinal.
Semifinal
It's the Semifinal, and the pressure is on as the remaining bakers tackle three difficult challenges. First up is a Signature crème caramel, where achieving the perfect wobble is essential. Then, the Technical introduces an Eastern European bake that's as complex as it is mysterious. For the Showstopper, the bakers must create a stunning jelly art masterpiece, combining beauty and flavor in one visually captivating creation.
Grand Finale
In the grand finale, the top three bakers face their toughest challenges yet. It begins with a rich chocolate tart for the Signature challenge, followed by a Technical that has the bakers in knots with a braided Swedish bake. For the Showstopper, they must create a breathtaking spring landscape, blending beauty, texture, and flavor into a masterpiece. Only one baker will rise above the rest to earn the coveted cake stand and be crowned America's best amateur baker.

UFC Fight Night
UFC Fight Night is a part of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) which is the largest mixed martial arts promotion company in the world featuring most of the top-ranked fighters in the sport. Based in the United States, the UFC produces events worldwide. The organization showcases nine weight divisions and abides by the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts. The UFC has held over 300 events to date. Dana White serves as the president of the UFC while brothers Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta control the UFC's parent company, Zuffa, LLC. The first UFC event was held on November 12, 1993 at the McNichols Sports Arena in Denver, Colorado. The purpose of the early UFC competitions was to identify the most effective martial art in a real fight between competitors of different fighting disciplines, including boxing, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Sambo, wrestling, Muay Thai, karate, judo, and other styles. In subsequent competitions, fighters began adopting effective techniques from more than one discipline, which indirectly helped create an entirely separate style of fighting known as present-day mixed martial arts.
Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.

Will Ingrid forgive him for being such a pompous shit? One thing is for certain: if Julian thinks Austin is going to be a push over, he's in for a rude awakening.
