	Media	Author	Review
		Jack Seale The Guardian	"[3rd Season Review]: as disturbing, hilarious and genius as ever (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Ross Bonaime Collider	"[3rd Season Review]: John Wilson's hilarious and touching show comes to end, and it's better than ever"
		Manuel Betancourt AV Club	"[3rd Season Review]: A funny, probing, brilliant sendoff"
		Valerie Ettenhofer The Playlist	"[3rd Season Review]: HBO’s unique comedy series wraps up with a weird, mostly wonderful final season"
		Barry Hertz The Globe and Mail	"[3rd Season Review]: I'll miss you, John Wilson"
		Joel Keller Decider	"[3rd Season Review]: A show that's perfect for streaming when you're in the mood for something with a little weirdness, a little optimism, and a lot of funny"
		Nick Schager The Daily Beast	"[3rd Season Review]: Part helpful guide, part sociological survey, and part intimate biography, it’s at once confessional and universal, as well as slyly profound"
		Daniel D'Addario Variety	"[2nd Season Review]: While each episode begins with a simple and pragmatic question (...) it ends having transcended and morphed the question into an inquiry into grander things."
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"[2nd Season Review]: The show’s second season is generally smoother and more confident in its storytelling approach than the first; it’s less an unexpected treasure, but still capable of surprising."
		Myles McNutt AV Club	"[2nd Season Review]: [It] continues to brilliantly capture our pandemic moment (...) Wilson seems more comfortable treating himself as the main character of these stories"
		Kathryn VanArendonk Vulture	"Weird and funny and sincere and idiosyncratic (...) [Wilson] is a master at the art of defamiliarizing, of taking the kinds of things that happen all the time and presenting them in a way that lets you see just how strange they are"
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Funny, sad and, in the end, shockingly profound (...) A thoroughly winning hodgepodge of elements — part quirky owner's manual for a life strangely lived, part laconic travelogue"
		Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"[It is] by turns hilarious, poignant, and disquieting, and reveal a profound humanity (...) If you give a talented director a camera, he might make something great. John Wilson sure did (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Josh Sorokach Decider	"A surreal grab bag of curious people, bizarre moments, and inventive comedy (...) I loved it"
		Steve Greene IndieWire	"A sweet primer on humanity and the magic of small moments (...) It’s a show that genuinely feels like it’s figuring things out as it goes along. In this particular case, that’s all you could possibly want."
