Reception[]
Reception of the show by the general public has been generally negative. Many subscribers to Netflix threatened to cancel their subscription due to the release of the show.[3]
Critics are mostly negative. Stephanie McNeal wrote for Buzzfeed News that the show managed to "somehow make being young, rich, and famous in Los Angeles seem horribly depressing." She also wrote that the stars, despite their popularity, were ultimately very boring and unmemorable to watch (with the exception of Larray and Nikita Dragun) and the show itself was "certainly an interesting insight into the machinations of content houses and the struggles that come with them, but it is not a very fun or interesting show."[4]
Allyson Weissman, writing for the student newspaper The Daily Bruin, gave it 2 out of 5 stars, calling the series "uneventful and lifeless".[5]
Madeline Roth of The Daily Beast in a negative review called the show "mind-numbing" and that Larray and Nikita Dragun were "the two saving graces of Hype House".[6]
