“Such a terrible, and not a loving, love story. In real life we’d call that an abusive, dysfunctional relationship. She’s cruel—and no one cares why—and selfish. Maybe she has a personality disorder. She’s completely unlikeable, a harsh personality, and even harsh in appearance. Hard, sharp,...”Read full review »

“I look forward to Jace Lacob’s interviews with the cast, writers, producers, and other creators of some of my favorite shows ever, especially All Creatures Great and Small. He does his research and asks great questions that make watching the shows even more enjoyable. It is clear how much he...”Read full review »

“I loved listening to this interview regarding this last episode which expounded so much on her past and her feelings. She spoke almost as if she was being interviewed during that era yet I believe it is her reality of life today. That makes me realize how superficial many of our...”Read full review »

It’s uncomfortable to listen to, because all the enthusiasm for the topic is coming from...”Read full review »

“This show is fantastic. Host Jace Lacob is excellent interviewing everyone involved in Masterpiece Studio shows. He creates an atmosphere that allows the guests to open up and he lets them speak in paragraphs without interruption. He is a true talent.”

“I ran Season 4 on passport, just couldn’t believe the story itself,#1 dealing w/ Cassie’s being denied her full 30yrs retirement. Her tackling the freezer headless/handless corpse.
But typical she’d get her man, no matter how negative the Dept became...writing on the wall of her finishing up her...”Read full review »

“I enjoy the Masterpiece but this podcast doesn’t do justice to the quality of the shows. The interviewer sounds like he has a prewritten list of questions, and throws those questions one by one to his guest. There is no follow up questions nor spontaneity. I enjoy when the guest starts to talk...”Read full review »

“There’s a lot to unpack in Long Song and some feels like ambivalence on part of Masterpiece compared to All Creatures and even the Miss Scarlet both playing same time. Those are Masterpiece de rigeur and All Creatures beauty and acting is an easy A. But Long Song is tremendous! If a bit...”Read full review »

“Well produced, good production quality, as expected.
Funny thing is, Mr. Lacob’s questions are often more interesting than the answers. The actors are left without much to add. (At least, for Poldark. The exception so far is Ms. Blakiston: she makes every answer interesting!)
Also, the titles...”Read full review »

“Jace Lacob is an EXCELLENT interviewer, and really seems to ask questions that are on point and encourage the actors to talk in something other than sound bites.
The downside is that there are too many spoilers - not on every episode, but they can be disappointing.”

“I would normally give a podcast produced by Masterpiece Studio a five-star and then some review but Jace Lacob is an insecure and poor interviewer.
