	Media	Author	Review
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"A worthwhile thought experiment in addition to a yarn that is, as the title promises, doubly wild."
		Ben Travers IndieWire	"Fascinating and fiery (...) The show overall is an incredibly dense examination of religion, immigrants, and Americans’ perception of both"
		Jen Chaney Vulture	"If you’re like me, 'Wild, Wild Country' (...) will open your eyes to what is a flat-out crazy and fascinating chapter in American history."
		Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times	"A highly pleasurable new documentary series (...) The story is almost tragic, but essentially comic, and unexpectedly poignant"
		Mike Hale The New York Times	"It is a great story (...) What’s most striking about 'Wild Wild Country' is how present, and unyielding, the passions of the combatants remain."
		Katie Rife AV Club	"Sheela in particular is a fascinating character (...) At the end of the series, though, the legal and cultural questions raised by the story remain largely unanswered."
		Nick Allen rogerebert.com	"Fascinating entertainment (...) Easily one of the craziest documentaries I’ve ever seen (...) It's a binge-ready epic in which the filmmakers are dedicated to all major plot details"
		Gary Garrison The Playlist	"The production, at times, falls short of the mesmerizing and absurd story at its heart (...) Chaotic and overstuffed (...) Enthralling"
