Pierce Conran South China Morning Post May 14, 2024
Even among Netflix's growing catalogue of dystopian dramas, twisty thrillers and sci-fi tentpoles, Chicken Nugget stands out, thanks to its saturated colours, heightened tone and absurd sense of humour. Go to Full Review Joly Herman Common Sense Media Mar 27, 2024
Some sinister undertones and the copious use of language makes this show a better choice for older teens. Fans of irrational sci-fi will appreciate this one the most. Go to Full Review Sarah Musnicky But Why Tho? Mar 16, 2024
8/10
Chicken Nugget dials everything up to a ten and then some. It is absurdist, comedic fun and spares no expense or time in embracing its quirky energy. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider Mar 15, 2024
Chicken Nugget is silly as hell, but it promises to be one of those shows where two people go on a crazy adventure. It just happens to involve a woman who becomes a chicken nugget. Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut Mar 15, 2024
3.5/5
I do not recall ever hating a show as much as I hated the first few episodes of Chicken Nugget, only to then discover it’s a work of sneaky genius. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen C @bob25009 Jun 2, 2025 10 funny and successful episodes!!!!!!!! In Korean and English dubbed versions with English subtitles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Eliav C @RT14929263 Oct 9, 2024 The writing? Surprisingly clever. The humor? Extra crispy. The satisfaction of watching someone navigate the complex emotions of being a nugget? 10/10. This show is the most oddly satisfying thing I’ve watched in a long time, and I’m seriously questioning why more people aren’t discussing the moral implications of turning into delicious fast food. In short: If you don’t watch this, you’re missing out on one of the greatest nuggets of our time. See more Justin M @RT93014025 Jun 22, 2024 All that watching made me crave Chicken Nuggets. Absolute must see! See more Read all reviews
