Critics' reviews

"The show is a more-forced-than-usual exercise in pop-cultural satire."

Mike Hale: The New York Times
"[It] would seem fresher in a world without 'Archer (...) 'Moonbeam City' lacks a clear comedic point of view because several episodes in, its characters remain cyphers."

Daniel Fienberg: The Hollywood Reporter
"A lot of it is funny, for sure, but probably not funny enough to justify what's essentially a second 'Archer'."

Ray Rahman: Entertainment Weekly
"The series (...) can’t maintain the initial burst of energy that its design and ‘80s-inspired opening titles convey, and settles for being puerile as opposed to consistently clever."

Brian Lowry: Variety
