For the most part, though, the ensemble’s work feels urgent and in the moment, and that matters for a series like this. Ultimately, “Clickbait” doesn’t say anything singular about the anonymity of the Internet, and it flirts with a lot of big ideas it doesn’t pursue as vigorously as it could have. ... But a show that went down those roads wouldn’t have been “Clickbait,” and also probably wouldn’t have been this silly or low-brow entertaining.

“Clickbait” has a suitably noir-ish look and a few neat wrinkles, but far too often, we branch out and fall down too many different rabbit holes. ... The cast turns in solid work and we appreciate the ambition and scope and timeliness of the subject matter, but the payoff is delivered off in currency that’s pure counterfeit.

The show’s problems start with the fact that, well, it’s doing this over eight 45-ish-minute episodes. ... It’s not so incompetent as to be dismissed as total trash, but nor is it interesting enough to embrace as a hidden gem. It’s just kind of there, waiting for someone to find its title provocative enough to give it a click.

This is yet another series that wants to be taken seriously thanks to the trappings of prestige drama, but gives us nothing but dreck. And yet, it’s too boring and offensive to be camp, either. I wish it could be the kind of Lifetime movie-level story that one could cuddle up and cackle along with; instead it’s deeply miscalculated in its delusions of grandeur.

This show was so twisty. I loved it! Many surprise moments. Once it grabbed my attention it didn't let go. I don't often review shows, but I felt the need to give this one some props.

A mini series showing how someone can ruin multiple lives when they don't protect their privacy. If it wasn't for the drama, it would be a South Park comedy.

I only made it through one episode of this series, which seemed to have been written by algorithm -- with every "edgy thriller" cliche imaginable thrown in. Though I thought the plot sounded intriguing at first, the phony characters and dialogue killed it for me.
