Season 1 Review:
The soundtrack is relentless, there are banal messages – delivered in artfully lit black-and-white cutaways – about Important Things such as conquering fear, or the beauty of the world; and a cast of photogenic adventurers who accompany Smith. ... Other episodes, as befits a big budget and a Hollywood film-maker’s eye, have moments of real wonder.

But when the star confesses that he was a frightened, bullied child and hopes to inspire others to conquer their fears, it’s heartening stuff.

Season 1 Review:
I found myself doing a lot of googling for clarification on information left only half-explained by Smith’s jokey bantering, and I honestly wonder if that’s how Welcome to Earth ended up on Disney+ and not on NatGeo. Again, the reason you’ll want to watch Welcome to Earth is the visuals: Every episode has some piece of imagery, or two or three, that left me slack-jawed. ... I kept wondering why somebody felt the need to add an unnatural star-driven narrative to all of this natural wonderment.
