If The Muppet Show helped '70s America rediscover irreverent joy, Earth to Ned might be here to convince 2020 America that our world is worth saving. Go to Full Review
Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 11/23/2020
It's the kind of thing many of us humans need to hear these days. Go to Full Review
Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) 09/16/2020
A meta-commentary on chat shows and an improvised comedy, it's silly but smart viewing that plays on different levels for different ages. Go to Full Review
Ethan Anderton Slashfilm 08/24/2021
Though it gets off to a rocky start, it quickly becomes a quirky and fun series replete with candid, improvised, and entertaining conversations with celebrity guests and a vibe that hearkens back to Space Ghost: Coast to Coast. Go to Full Review

It's the strangest thing on Disney+ by a considerable margin and that's a good thing -- Earth to Ned has a personality and flavor all its own. You'll be begging to be beamed up, again and again. Go to Full Review

Scott S. @LAtvProducer Feb 15 One of the LA Times “10 Best TV Shows of 2020,” Earth to Ned is one of the most under appreciated original series in recent memory. Disney+ didn’t know what they had when they unceremoniously failed to renew the series for a second season. “Earth to Ned is the joyful answer to our darkest worry.” — Vulture “Restore your faith in humanity with Disney’s new alien talk show.” — LA Times See more Christoph B @RT59537406 09/25/2021 großartige Idee,großartige Umsetzung. Ich liebe die Figuren von Henson und die Gäste sind gut ausgewählt See more 07/04/2021 There simply has to be fake reviews messing up the average on this show. See more judy s @RT89871247 05/26/2021 Just saw it today it's terrible. I guess it is suppose to be funny? It is not funny at all. It's actually trying way too hard to be funny. So hard that the jokes fall flat, skits are just stupid. It is not worth paying for that's for sure. Disney is losing its edge with these cheap streaming shows. Jim Henson and Walt Disney are rolling over in their graves. They must be so upset. See more 12/12/2020 We love the escape! The art production is perfect. The puppeteering is masterful as always. The jokes and relationship with characters gets better with each episode. And the Clodsssss. We LOVE the clods. See more 10/09/2020 Really good talk show I love the guest See more Read all reviews
