Jason Biggs Brings His ‘American Pie’ Jokes On The Blue Ribbon Baking Championship As A Show Host; DEETS

As a longtime fan of Jason Biggs and his iconic role in American Pie, I must say that it’s truly fascinating to see how his life has evolved since those high school days. From being synonymous with pies on the silver screen to hosting a baking competition show, Biggs has certainly come a long way.


Jason Biggs, the current host of Netflix’s Blue Ribbon Baking Championship, recently shared a humorous remark related to his well-known movie, American Pie. Biggs quipped, “No pies were harmed” during the production of the baking contest series. He reassured viewers that the program is suitable for family viewing and can now be streamed on Netflix.

Biggs shared with USA Today that he was thrilled about hosting the food-related show, “I’ve been eager to be part of the culinary world. You might catch a wink or two from me while I’m the baking show host, and when I run out of words, I always have a pie joke ready to crack everyone up.”

The show premieres following the 25-year mark since the 1999 release of American Pie, a movie that made Biggs a household name, particularly for his memorable role in the iconic apple pie scene from the comedy.

The original scene became famous enough to inspire multiple films in the “American Pie” series, such as American Pie 2 (2001), American Wedding (2003), and American Reunion (2012). In these movies, Biggs is frequently depicted with a pie.

Biggs explained to the media, “My life can be divided into distinct phases, with getting married and having children being key milestones. However, the most noticeable changes occurred before and after the release of American Pie.”

Even though the program is designed for all ages, Biggs continuously adds humor to it. For instance, in one episode, he quips, “Believe me when I say this: that’s an incredibly appealing pie.”

As a dedicated follower, I’d say, “I watch Biggs on Netflix’s Blue Ribbon Baking Championship where ten state fair champions from different parts of the nation battle it out for a grand prize of $100,000 and the prestigious title of Best In Fair.”

In this show, Biggs shares the spotlight with his captivating personality, demonstrating talents such as juggling and catching edibles mid-air. However, when it comes to making decisions about pies, Biggs takes a back seat, leaving that task to experts like Sandra Lee (a lifestyle guru), Bill Yosses (a past master in the White House kitchen), and Bryan Ford (an accomplished baker).

In simpler terms, American Pie follows the story of four high school friends – Biggs, Chris Klein, Thomas Ian Nicholas, and Eddie Kaye Thomas – who decide to lose their virginity before they graduate. This comedy also features a star-studded cast that includes Seann William Scott, Alyson Hannigan, Natasha Lyonne, Tara Reid, Mena Suvari, Shannon Elizabeth, Jennifer Coolidge, Eugene Levy, and more.

In his mid-forties, Biggs has almost equal fame for his pie-making prowess as for his acting career. Despite being raised in New Jersey, which is quite distant from the fair settings depicted in the Netflix baking competition, he’s managed to make a significant impact in the world of pies and has become a well-known figure.
