Mar 3, 2018I never heard of the youtube channel Miranda Sings until I read reviews of this series, and having been neither able to make it through the pilot nor through any of the several videos I checked out, I can say this series isn't for me. But the lead does have some talent playing a no-talent - the opening song in the pilot is cleverly bad - so I can see where this might really appeal to some people.

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.
