Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times 06/29/2019
Although "Mission Hill" is billed as a series that will both "embrace and satirize youth culture," its value and benefits from animation are not immediately apparent. Nor is there much distinctive about the voices. Go to Full Review Laura Fries Variety 06/29/2019
Not as pretty as "SpongeBob SquarePants" or as ugly as "South Park," "Mission Hill" resides in its own aesthetic neighborhood where the animation is just a vehicle for clever writing. Go to Full Review John Carman San Francisco Chronicle 06/29/2019
The animation style seems a throwback to the late '50s and early '60s... But the animation is rarely used to advantage, to take stories to the realm of the outlandish and even impossible, where live action can't go. And the writing fizzles. Go to Full Review Kevin Cortez Screen Rant 06/29/2019
The series' humor was delivered in a dry, subtle manner unmatched by most cartoons at the time, essentially standing as a smart man's animated sitcom for a generation not yet ready to appreciate it. Go to Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel 06/29/2019
Mission Hill fails to take advantage of any of the edges animation offers. The characters are dullards and the premise desultory. If it's not an oxymoron, this cartoon is lifeless. Go to Full Review Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) 06/29/2019
This animated half-hour is ugly to look at, stupid and offensive. Oh, and while it's supposed to be funny -- it's not even close. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Gamer S @RT50449030 09/01/2023 The best show ever. The voice cast is the best. The animation is great. The plots are good. The jokes are really funny. I almost laughed at every joke. I wish this show come back. See more Timmy M @RT67342116 08/11/2023 Mission Hill- One of the cartoon I feel I'm the only one who remembers it. This is one of the funniest citcom cartoons out of the late 90s early 2000s. Unfortunately only lasting one season it was cut way to short of what potential it could have had. Even with that said it was definitely full of laughes. See more Jaust W @RT12629033 05/12/2023 The critical rating of Mission Hill is yet more evidence of how useless and extraneous to entertainment professional media critics are to society. They're the one job that should be outsourced to AI. See more 07/31/2020 This is one of my favorite shows of all time. The animation is vibrant, beautiful, and uniquely drawn. Every character in the show is enjoyable and relatable in some way. The humor is well-balanced in that it's certainly an entertaining and funny show, but it's grounded in reality enough to give some depth to the series. Overall, an amazing show. I think it was ahead of its time and wasn't marketed properly at the time of its release, but I would love to see another season. See more Read all reviews
