Hasbro has turned numerous its hottest toy manufacturers into multimedia franchises lately. The listing of toys-turned-movies consists of Transformers, G.I. Joe, and Power Rangers. And they’ve even turned some board video games into films or exhibits, like Clue and Ouija, which did properly sufficient to get a sequel. But a TV present primarily based on a toy oven? That’s undoubtedly breaking new floor.
And now it’s taking place, over at Netflix. The streaming service will quickly launch Easy-Bake Battle: The Home Cooking Competition, which in line with its official plot synopsis is “inspired by Hasbro’s iconic Easy-Bake Oven, featuring skilled and ultra clever home cooks, all with a ton of heart and soul, facing off and using their most ingenious kitchen hacks to prove who can make the easiest, fastest, and most delicious food.”
The Easy-Bake Oven is without doubt one of the hottest toys of all time. Introduced by Kenner in 1963, it’s nonetheless produced to at the present time. The authentic fashions baked varied treats from packaged mixes utilizing the warmth from a 100-watt mild bulb.
More current variations of the toy, which is now made by Hasbro, up to date the inner-workings to comprise a extra standard heating aspect. (The machine has tiny slots on its sides to insert and take away the baked items with out sticking a baby’s delicate fingers inside a working oven.)
Here is how Netflix describes the premise of their new Easy-Bake Battle:
In every fast-faced and hack-packed episode, host Antoni Porowski (Queer Eye) invitations three imaginative dwelling cooks into the Easy-Bake Kitchen. Over the course of two rounds, they’ll go head-to-head, racing towards the clock in each savory and candy challenges, every primarily based on relatable food-filled life conditions that require them to drag off a quick and intelligent meal inside a delegated time, and making it as straightforward as potential! Cooks will compete for $25,000 in every battle, with the winner transferring on for the prospect to win as much as $100,000!
So they don’t particularly say the contestants need to cook dinner issues utilizing an Easy-Bake Oven, but when this present truly consists of individuals making $25,000 baked items in kids’s toys, I’m completely watching (and presumably shopping for an Easy-Bake Oven after which auditioning to get on Season 2). And then I need a sport present primarily based on Hungry Hungry Hippos the place individuals need to feed as a lot meals as they presumably can to actual, dwell hippos. That’s a can’t-miss idea.
Easy-Bake Battle: The Home Cooking Competition premieres on Netflix on October 12.
