Reception According to the Eastbay Express, which reviewed the series in its January 6 edition, 'The whole thing would make for a perfect TV show.' The website alterna-tv.com, which reviews television and new media, said of the show: "Despite a proliferation of original webseries sprouting up on the Internet, it is still somewhat of a rarity to find one produced by truly independent industry outsides that is also well-written, well-acted, polished and entertaining... The writing, for instance, is as tight and funny as anything on television—let alone the Internet..." PopCultureMonster.com said the show was "fresh (pun intended)... and ... filled with both jokes and a lovely bit of slap-stick." and that the actors were "very funny, awkward and awfully adorkable" It was reviewed positively by Ned Hepburn's web series column Pass the Mustard. "McCabe & Stanton have cobbled together an impressive series out of a few thousand, good writing and a few twenty-something comedians..." writes Doniphan Blair in Cinesource Magazine.
