Screen Rant has the exclusive musical opening from Baking It featuring hosts Andy Samberg and Maya Rudolph singing an intro to the series. The holiday competition show is the second for the Peacock streaming service, following the success of the Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman hosted reality series, Making It. All 6 episodes of Baking It are currently available to stream on Peacock. The first episode of the series will also air on NBC on December 3 at 8 PM.
Hosted by Samberg and Rudolph, Baking It is a competition series in which 8 teams of home bakers show off their holiday traditions and baking skills in a cozy winter cabin. The team are composed of spouses, siblings, and best friends working together in themed challenges with the hopes of winning a cash prize. The contestants are judged by a panel of four opinionated grandmothers who are all bakers in their own right.
Watch the musical opening from Baking It below. The opening features a festive and funny song performed by Samberg and Rudolph. The lyrics explain not only what to expect from the show, but what to expect from the hosts themselves as they provide musical and comedic commentary throughout the competition.

Like Poehler and Offerman before them, Samberg and Rudolph have worked together in the past and share an easy rapport. The actors performed together on Saturday Night Live for a brief time. Rudolph also appeared in the film Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, which was written by and starred Samberg. The clip shows the fun and easy banter that can be expected from the series as well as the hilarious hijinks exhibited by the hosts.

He will next appear in Hotel Transylvania: Transformania as the voice of the human Jonathan. Rudolph can currently be seen in Paul Thomas Anderson's latest film, Licorice Pizza.
