Elliot Smith IndieWire 04/06/2020
The show is aided greatly by the talents of host Will Arnett, whose snarky delivery is ideal when diving into the strange clips and odd trends explored in each episode. Go to Full Review
Jen Chaney New York Magazine/Vulture 04/06/2020
Will Arnett walks us through clips of pop-culture disasters from decades past, like Canada's horrifying SkyDome opening celebration in 1989 and the movie Gymkata, and, if you haven't guessed already, this is definitely my favorite show on Quibi. Go to Full Review
Randall Colburn AV Club 04/06/2020
Unfortunately, the show's excavation of "the most cringeworthy events in pop culture" doesn't dig very deep, and Arnett's lame-duck one-liners are delivered with minimal gusto. Go to Full Review
Rob Hunter Film School Rejects 05/13/2020
They're not all winners, but I can't shortchange a quibi that has the smarts to devote a few minutes to 1985's action masterpiece Gymkata. Having Patton Oswalt deliver the pitch seals the deal. Go to Full Review
Chris Evangelista Slashfilm 05/13/2020
That sounds niche as hell, and it is - but it's also pretty amusing, and, like 90% of Quibi's content, completely disposable. Go to Full Review

5/10
While it can be amusing to watch some of these embarrassing moments in Canada's history, it feels like Arnett's talents are wasted here. Go to Full Review

samuel j 07/25/2022 Sure it's a little bit of a rip-off of The Soup. However, if you're a fan of Arnett and older pop culture, I highly recommend it to pass by the time.
