Season 5 Review:
What a perfect show it’s been. Ms. Berry’s authority and, yes, kindness provide an elegant counterweight to Mr. Hollywood’s lad-ish qualities. The Ms. Perkins and Ms. Giedroyc are smartly funny and always supportive of the struggling competitors. The contestants are normal, diverse and inspiring. And highly accomplished.

Season 3 Review:
Thanks the lord Mary Berry that literally nothing has changed about the contest's winning formula. ... [A] rosewater-infused layer cake of TV delight. [1 Jul 2016]

Season 4 Review:
Regular viewers can expect to encounter all the usual Baking Show elements: a weekly series of challenges focused on different types of baked goods, from cakes to breads to botanically inspired concoctions; competitors who come across, without exception, as likable, decent humans; dashes of humor and encouraging pep talks from hosts Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc, for whom this is also the last season; and that huge wedding tent of a set that appears to have been set up in Lady Mary Crawley’s sprawling backyard.

Season 9 Review:
Replacing [Sandi Tosvig] with [Matt] Lucas, known for his own cringeworthy style, turns both hosts into a sideshow rather than reassuring emcees. In the first episode, his bits were more distracting than amusing. But the real problem with the season premiere was the showstopper challenge. ... It wasn't a test of baking but of sculpting, and how many home bakers are champion sculptures of the human form? What does that have to do with baking something that tastes good? ... COVID isn't the reason "Baking" is failing. The flavor of the series is off, and it might never be quite as sweet again.
