Nailed It! is an American reality television series that premiered on March 9, 2018. The series is exclusively available on Netflix. The series is a bake-off competition in the style of reality television, where three amateur bakers compete to replicate complicated cakes and confectionery in order to win a $10,000 cash prize and the "Nailed It" trophy.

A second season was released on June 29, 2018. A holiday season, dubbed Nailed It! Holiday!, was released on December 7, 2018. The third season was released on May 17, 2019. A second holiday season of Nailed It! Holiday! was released on November 22, 2019.[1] The fourth season was released on April 1, 2020. The fifth season, dubbed Nailed It! Double Trouble, is the series' first spin-off season that features contestants competing in pairs. It premiered on March 26, 2021.[2] The sixth season was released on September 15, 2021.[3] The seventh season, dubbed Nailed It! Halloween, was released on October 5, 2022.[4]

On March 1, 2022, it was reported that production was suspended indefinitely on the series after crew members went to strike to secure a contract with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees.[5] The strike saw the seventh season's episode total halved, as only four of the planned eight episodes had been filmed before the strike commenced.[6]

The spin-off The Big Nailed It Baking Challenge was released on August 4, 2023.

The series has received critical acclaim and was nominated for five Primetime Emmy Awards, including three for Outstanding Competition Program and twice for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Competition Program. The latter nomination made Nicole Byer the first Black woman to be nominated for the award.
