Slant MagazineMichael HaigisAug 23, 2017
Season 1 Review: Bates convinces as a hippie trying to resist transforming into a curmudgeon, and her performance would truly soar in a show that endeavored to contrast Ruth's charisma with a sincere exploration of her flaws. But Disjointed refrains from such inquiry, feigning intelligence through vulgarity and unfocused irony. Read full review

Season 1 Review: While "The Big Bang Theory" producer Chuck Lorre clearly felt liberated plying his trade for Netflix, the resulting stoner comedy, Disjointed, runs on fumes. Read full review

New York PostRobert RorkeAug 25, 2017
Season 1 Review: Lorre and Javerbaum disguise Disjointed’s monotonous humor with an intrusive laugh track and cutaway spoofs of TV commercials for potato chips and Marlboros that are funnier than the jokes delivered by Bates and company. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Most of this show is stupid stoner humor. ... There aren’t enough drugs to find the funny in Disjointed. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Disjointed operates on another plane of altered consciousness, which may begin to explain this genial, harmless misfire. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Disjointed doesn’t quite offend as much as its unyielding and unfunny flippancy renders each episode null and void as an experience. Read full review

TVLineDave NemetzAug 23, 2017
Season 1 Review: Across the board, Disjointed is marred by very broad, yell-y acting, with the cast straining to sell woeful jokes that range from tired pothead stereotypes (boy, are they forgetful!) to vulgar double-entendres. Read full review
