Season 1 Review: The writing is juvenile, hormonal and often pretty dang funny. Read full review

Boston HeraldMark A. PerigardOct 27, 2011
Season 1 Review: The cartoon is often laugh-out-loud funny, pulling off ridiculously zany sight gags, such as when Mondo decides to impress a girl by surfing and, instead, inadvertently beheads a bird, among other things. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesRobert LloydOct 27, 2011
Season 1 Review: None of the characters--including the usual smart hot girl, mean hot girl and mean hot guy--range beyond well-established types, and the show would have to stand on a chair to aim any lower. But it is mostly sweet-tempered and oddly moral, and, as I write these words, I do not hate it. Read full review

New York Daily NewsDavid HinckleyOct 27, 2011
Season 1 Review: While it has contemporary music, appliances and vernacular, it has the soul of an old-school sitcom where the issues are basic: boys and girls, grownups and jobs, rogue waves and colorful surfboards. Read full review

Season 1 Review: As for Good Vibes, think of it as another one of those ho-hum waves you can safely let roll by. Read full review
