	Author	Review
United States	Kristen Baldwin Entertainment Weekly	"Drive-by appearances from celebs including Pete Davidson and Catherine O'Hara don't add much. We're just here for the Kids, who are a little older but as wonderfully weird as ever"	POS
United States	Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"These guys aren’t just recycling material. They’re still hilarious, smart, and sometimes brutal"	POS
United States	Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times	"Another gift from Canada to American comedy (...) Well-written, expertly performed, unashamedly odd and full of beans"	POS
United States	Romey Norton Ready Steady Cut	"The work is fresh, current, and relatable (...) highly recommend this if you’re a fan of comedy sketches and if you’ve liked shows such as Monty Python (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Josh Spiegel SlashFilm	"[A] sharp and funny return (...) The guest stars are a nice bit of oomph, but almost an unnecessary one. The Kids are good enough on their own"	POS
Canada	Josh Bell CBR	"'The Kids in the Hall' is better when it sticks to bizarre concepts that double down on their strangeness, mining laughs from unexpected swerves into new, often darker territory."	POS
United States	Sean L. McCarthy Decider	"The Kids have deftly handled the minefield which, these days, has proven to be maintaining a sense of humor into your 50s (...) they haven’t lost touch with what works for them and with audiences as they’ve hit middle age"	POS
Canada	Peter Martin Screen Anarchy	"If your brain operates on the same wavelength as 'The Kids in the Hall', my job here is done (...) You need to set aside time as soon as possible in order to enjoy [the episodes]"	POS
United States	Jesse Hassenger The Wrap	"[It] is able to offer something unusual for sketch comedy: the daft illusion of growing old together."	POS
United States	Nick Allen The Playlist	"[They] are still making things their way —having lost none of their punk and progressive mentalities— and, as a result, their comedy is both relevant and laugh-out-loud great. Funny how that works"	POS
United States	Melanie McFarland Salon	"Their self-aware approach to repurposing old friends from the show [is] incredibly topical –unsettling, even. But it also comforts by reminding its longtime fans that who we were is still who we are"	POS
Canada	Alex Maidy JoBlo	"Personally, I have nothing bad to say about 'The Kids in the Hall' in their newest season (...) For fans of the comedians, rest assured they are back and just as hilarious as before"	POS
