	Author	Review
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"'Weird City' is very funny, but it puts story and characters above commentary all the way through (...) What drives the series is its enthusiasm"	POS

United States	Caroline Framke Variety	"An interesting experiment (...) 'Weird City’s' writing is sharp and self-aware enough (and its casting exciting enough) to at least give it a shot."	POS
