The A.V. ClubAshley Ray-HarrisJun 14, 2016
Season 1 Review: While the premise and election plotline that follow are flimsy, the cast is clearly capable of handling anything that’s thrown at them. They make Wrecked worth watching. Read full review

The Lincoln Journal StarJeff KorbelikJun 13, 2016
Season 1 Review: There are lots of sight gags here, with many of them involving the very funny Rhys Darby. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyClark CollisJun 13, 2016
Season 1 Review: The humor can be pretty lowbrow ... but the agreeable cast--which includes Rhys Darby from Flight of the Conchords--suggests that all is not you-know-what. [17 Jun 2016]

Los Angeles TimesRobert LloydJun 14, 2016
Season 1 Review: That it’s shot and scored (and much of the time acted) as if it were a drama--not exaggeratedly dramatic, with a wink, but played straight--gives the silliness some substance and makes watching a pleasure. Read full review

The New York TimesNeil GenzlingerJun 13, 2016
Season 1 Review: By Episode 3, Wrecked is what it wants to be: An enjoyably mindless comedy well suited to the carefree months. Read full review

Colorado Springs GazetteTerry TerronesJun 13, 2016
Season 1 Review: Wrecked is a decent summer comedy but it takes its sweet time finding its footing. The series doesn’t find its true identity until episode three, well after the initial “Lost” jokes have worn thin. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleDavid WiegandJun 9, 2016
Season 1 Review: It’s over the top in some places, such as the discovery of an entire suitcase filled with sex toys and the difficulty the survivors have trying to find a place to defecate in peace. But after a while, it doesn’t seem over the top in enough places, which is often a danger in making high-concept comedies. Read full review

VarietyMaureen RyanJun 14, 2016
Season 1 Review: A number of the characters are actively annoying, and the show’s tendency to have people shout at each other in lieu of supplying briskly paced storytelling or well-crafted jokes becomes wearying. Read full review

We Got This CoveredMitchel BroussardJun 13, 2016
Season 1 Review: Wrecked is so unfunny, shrill, and satirically derelict, that the survivor’s desperate need to escape the island is ridiculously easy to sympathize with. Read full review

Pittsburgh Post-GazetteRob OwenJun 7, 2016
Season 1 Review: The big problem with Wrecked is that the pilot episode is just not that funny. A second episode was slightly funnier but not entertaining enough to warrant watching a third half-hour. Read full review

ColliderChris CabinJun 14, 2016
Season 1 Review: Wrecked is never quite as offensive or simply frustrating as something like, say, The Ranch, but even that thoroughly false comedy had a clear perspective and a narrative trajectory, whereas Wrecked feels--please, please forgive me--lost at sea. Read full review
