What to Know

Critics Consensus

A battle between heaven and hell translated into daffy slapstick, Exploding Kittens won't blow viewers' minds but serves up some fun animated mayhem.

Exploding Kittens: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) Imagine Bob’s Burger with a streak of Monty Python. Jul 19, 2024 Full Review Exploding Kittens: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Lucy Mangan Guardian It is carelessly made, infuriating and unfunny. It is full of jokes that don’t work because, clearly, no one knew or cared what they were doing. Rated: 1/5 Jul 12, 2024 Full Review Exploding Kittens: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Isobel Lewis AV Club Instead of the fast-paced, lighthearted adaptation similar to the card game, Exploding Kittens feels like learning the rules itself. You can swear you’re interested, but nothing else is going on to keep you hooked. Rated: C- Jul 12, 2024 Full Review Exploding Kittens: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Tara Ariano Cracked We’ve all lived through game-to-screen adaptations — some good, like Clue; some very bad, like Battleship; some still TBD, like the proposed Uno. What Exploding Kittens has over other attempts in the space is that there’s comedy in its DNA. Aug 28, 2024 Full Review Exploding Kittens: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Neil Soans The Times of India Exploding Kittens is a quirky and entertaining series that, despite its flaws, manages to capture the spirit of its source material in a fresh and amusing way. Rated: 3/5 Jul 26, 2024 Full Review Exploding Kittens: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Daniel Kurland BubbleBlabber If Exploding Kittens continues down the same path then there will be nothing worthwhile to glean from more episodes. If idle hands are the Devil’s playthings, then disinterested audiences will all be turned into demons by the end of these nine episodes. Rated: 5.5/10 Jul 18, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Peter B I absolutely love how unapologetically hilarious this show is. The one liners and just the comedic timing are amazing. The writing is so amazing. I'm going to need more seasons of this. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/03/24 Full Review Mel M I just started it and I love it, if your a cat owner and lover I think you’ll enjoy this. Seems lighthearted and silly just something to watch on your free time. I love the actor Mark Proksch! I think this show has potential with more actors like him and it’s not super religious in my opinion even though I consider myself Catholic I enjoyed it! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Patricio H I didn't expect to enjoy this series so much. My girlfriend and I spent an entire afternoon watching the first season and having a blast. We'll be waiting for the second season! Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/24 Full Review Audience Member I hated the pilot and somehow I managed to watch the whole season with a worse opinion about it. Please avoid watching this if you appreciate your time on Earth. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/07/24 Full Review Tillie T I love the idea of this show, but once I got bored of the premise there wasn't much else to keep me watching. Some of the jokes hit, most did not. Yesterday I put it on the TV and walked away to grab some chips. Once I was in the kitchen I sat down for a minute and didn't care enough to go back and watch the rest of the episode. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Emiliano P This one is cool to turn the brain off with some dumb and no-sense comedy/animation, watch out if you take seriously "those mythological figures". I liked it, i mean, nothing remarcable but if you love cats and thinking about life with some humor this one maybe is for you. Congrats to the voice artists and the one who did the stylish for the cats when they sit. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
