Critics Consensus
Blockbuster tries to leverage nostalgia for the defunct brand, but this contrived workplace comedy is fatally unfunny -- be kind, rewind, and chuck it into the return bin.
Wenlei Ma News.com.au It’s a genial show that’s perfect for decompressing. Nov 5, 2022 Full Review Liz Shannon Miller Consequence Acknowledging the irony of its premise doesn’t change the fact that Blockbuster the show is trying to make Blockbuster the company a symbol for what we’ve lost — when for a lot of independent video stores, Blockbuster was what caused them to lose. Rated: C Nov 4, 2022 Full Review Caroline Framke Variety Unable to criticize the very entertainment model putting brick and mortar rental places out of business, but trying to sell a scrappy story of comeback kids all the same, Blockbuster quickly gets stuck in a low gear. Nov 4, 2022 Full Review Cristina Escobar Latino Rebels Blandly enjoyable, the TV equivalent of a PB&J: sweet, nostalgic, and true to form. May 21, 2023 Full Review Martin Carr Yahoo! Movies Chocked full of potential which ultimately feels squandered, Blockbuster is barely salvaged by a cast including Brooklyn Nine-Nine veteran Melissa Fumero. May 20, 2023 Full Review Diego Jemio Clarín Blockbuster suffers from flat characters who -- all -- have big hearts and get to mischief when trouble arises.

Junior C It feels like prime superstore Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/06/25 Full Review Agent M I watched three episodes and couldn't stand it anymore. It had the same hateful woke agenda nonsense that ruined the last season of Brooklyn 99 and made it unwatchable as well. I am tired of TV shows trying to force this insane garbage down our throats. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/16/23 Full Review Aisha C Weirdly charming. Love Melissa Fumero as Eliza. It's comfortable to watch and it's like you are watching a reality show about a neighbouring small town. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/08/23 Full Review Teddy B A contrived, pitiful, derivative, and "meta" show that is hopelessly short on comic invention. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/29/23 Full Review Sammy V Wanted to like this, but wow, it is just not worth watching Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/16/23 Full Review Azad O It's by no means as bad as shown here, just for the balance 5 stars Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
