Netflix's No. 1 Show Is Completely Ridiculous
The 'Perfect Show' for Two Years into the Pandemic
There’s a show on Netflix called “is it cake?” and it’s literally just people guessing if things are cake or not.

Netflix has released eight episodes so far. Some celebrity judges on the show include rapper Daym Drops, comedian Fortune Feimster, actor Michael Yo, model Camille Kostek, actor Finesse Mitchell, and singers Rebecca Black and King Princess. Saturday Night Live stars Heidi Gardner and Bobby Moynihan also appears on the show.
