Will be watching and hoping our local potter does well, his work is so amazing he is very talented.
I love how lovely they were with each other! Seth’s laugh, and all the judges brought good insightful critiques, the diversity of country of origin before Canada. I know next season we said at the same time how great indigenous potters, and the potters who have come to Canada from China, Vietnam, Syrian, Iranian, afghani, Korean, Nigerian, Congolese, Kerala Indian folks could take that up even one more notch! I can’t wait to see all the guest judges, we gained so many great potters from so many nations! Mohawk smoke ware, Manitoba black duck pottery, ceramics from the west coast cultures! I was so happy to see how uncompetitive it was, folks handing out paper clay to help with cracks, hugs abounded, so much encouragement. It’s so hard throwing to the clock like that, but those sculptures were amazing for such a short time.
yes yes yes! I will watch every single episode of anything involving ceramics
I really loved the British version.

Yup! This doesn't even come close.
I'm so excited to throw it down with these potters!
I am looking forward to seeing the Canadian version of this show. I know that it will be great
What a fantastic show! The creativity and community are amazing. So fun to watch.
Is there anyway to watch this in the uk?
Love the uk version, how do i watch the Canadian version?
Where/ how to watch in the states PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PRETTY PLEASE
Sounds fun, I love pottery. I like the UK show, I assume this will compare.
Yay!
How do you become a contestant? I would love to test my skills with something like this?
Good luck living up to the British version. You have some big shoes to fill.

Potters are potters..l the only thing that would make this show bad is the editing…

This is exciting! But yes, the British have set the bar high and I’m hoping that we don’t poorly just try to imitate their success or even personalities. Tough to “make it your own” when following a successful format, but best wishes hoping it is successful for all! Looking forward to this!!! Cheers.

The diverse potters and the hosts were so themselves! It was so good!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
The first time I saw this commercial, I thought it was a spoof. Pottery competition? Sounds exciting. No offense to all who are into this.
This is sooo exciting! Way to go Seth! Thats so awesome! Will we get to see this in the US???
Have watched the first episode, and agree 100% with the winner this week. That was a splendid piece! Disagree however with the person sent home. That was not the poorest work on display.
Please let me know where to buy the beautiful Jean jumper worn by one of the judges in episode 5 Into the fire!
I'm so sad...The Great British Pottery Throw Down season 7 was uploaded on KZread...the whole season and was taken down today. Anyone know how to watch that in the States? I'm not sure how to watch this one in the UK. Someone had asked.

I've been wondering what happened to it as well...left hanging after the third episode--ahh!
You know I was actually interested in this show until I found out that Seth Rogan was hosting it.
I don’t my taxes to pay for this.
I mean? Seth Rogen? Like almost always entertaining. My wife and I got into pottery last year and have been watching the Brit version since the beginning. But to see Seth's obvious real interests and all nervous?! Priceless bro! All grown up with ashtrays and bongs! Lol I recently stopped puffing but I'd take a hit in one of his homemade bongs fo sho! 😎🤙
If Seth doesn't cry at least once per episode, I'm going to feel this is a serious let down. :D
They shouldn’t copy all the antics of the British version….just be original!
Soooo exciting 😊 👏🏻 😒😬 did seth have to leave the U.s. cause loser pot smoker movies aren't a thing anymore? had to comeback to Canada to do this lame nonsense 🤦
The hosts and judges are stiff and not the least personable as they are on the British series. And, Seth Rogen's laugh may just make me stop watching altogether - it's got to be the most annoying laugh I've heard in a long time; even worse than Fran Drescher's. The fact that Rogen has a weed company and only sells weed ashtrays/accoutrements to justify his pottery credentials is laughable. They don't have any serious potters in the whole of Canada? They had to choose him? Not a good clone of the beloved British series.
