Netflix Ladles on the Whimsy With New Food Series Crazy Delicious

Produced in partnership with Great British Baking Show broadcaster Channel 4, Netflix's new food series shares a similar ethos with its predecessor, only as Primetimer's Joe Reid describes in his review of the new series, it's shot in an elaborate garden of eden-like setting, where everything is edible (and contestants must forage for their ingredients). The feel-good series drops its six-episode first season today. Also: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.EL.D. visit the 70s, HGTV debuts a new self-shot organization series, and Netflix returns to Lenox Hill during the height of the global pandemic.
