    She should be ashamed of herself!!!!!!!    … Expand

    There is nothing funny about this show. It's painful to watch. The level of stupidity involved in making this is astounding! Watching this show will give you brain cancer.

    This is way too forced to be funny. All characters are exagerated past minimum tolerance. The main message is a pretty valid one but the show is just more onoxious than I can take. Some very funny and intelligent situations end up being ruined by the cringeworthy overacting, everything is dialed up on 10. It's a shame.

    A one note joke, that falls flat when extended, excruciatingly, over eight episodes. It works on youtube, sort of, when you don't know the shtick, but even then it's the same thing iterated endlessly.
    The characters never really find their footing or develop any discernible depth, and it becomes more of an exercise in cringe-endurance.

    The aim of the show is to make fun of sensitivity and emotional intelligence and the only way you could enjoy the show is if you jumped on the bandwagon and became a hater yourself. Lazy humour, making fun of other people is so easy why not make me laugh with something more original?

    Haters Back Off is an unfunny comedy. With decent acting, horrible writing, and horrible characters. I had to stop watching at the 3rd episode it was just that bad and I have not watch any episode scene.

    I really wanted to like this as she's a nice youtuber and she's funny, but this series is horrible. It bored and and irritated me from the first minute, but I kept watching the rest of the episode thinking it will go better... but, no, sadly...

    This is the most disturbing thing I've ever seen on a TV show. This isn't funny. It's tragic. You have a young delusional woman in need of a major course correction in an environment where her uncle is a spaz and her mother is a weak push-over. They both contribute to the problem. The main character has zero dimension or character arc; she is just a weak stick figure from one show toThis is the most disturbing thing I've ever seen on a TV show. This isn't funny. It's tragic.

The main character has zero dimension or character arc; she is just a weak stick figure from one show to the next that you can't really do anything with. Who the frig had money and thought this was a good idea!? Even the 'Cone heads' barely had enough to put a movie together with and this is a fraction of the potential of that! As a comical satire, it's too over-the-top. On YouTube, a few minutes here or there is fine but it doesn't translate well to TV.… Expand

    É, com certeza, a série mais chata que eu já assisti. O enredo é manjado, os personagens são chatos e o cenário é sempre o mesmo.

    This is an origin story, and like "Saturday Night Live" sketches blown up to big-screen size ("The Blues Brothers," "Wayne's World," "Superstar," et al.), it faces the challenge of shaping a funny idea into a semblance of life, and succeeds.

    Miranda sings badly with great gusto; she is witheringly sarcastic to people even though we know she has misunderstood what they’ve said. It’s a very impressive, thought-through presentation by Ballinger. I admire it, but I also didn’t find it funny.

    Not everything in Haters Back Off! works. In fact, a lot of it doesn’t. It’s a show whose title basically serves as a warning.
