To mix sport metaphors, Hoops is like a racehorse with blinders on. It's got one goal: trying hard to make audiences laugh with jarring comedy that it turns into a predictable mess, squandering its potential for multi-dimensional storytelling.
August 19, 2020
Hoops is a frustrating series in its inaugural season as it's so heavily focused on trying to be shocking by being aggressively crass that its storylines and characters suffer.

Here, the idea of great comedy is to throw as many dick jokes as possible against the wall to see which one sticks.
August 20, 2020
This foulmouthed animated comedy isn't half the joke machine it would need to be in order to justify its total lack of nuance.
August 21, 2020
Hoops is one of those shows that escaped a time capsule from the 2010s and somehow ended up in 2020 where adult animated sitcoms are supposed to be nuanced and FUNNY.

When this show gets canceled, it won't be because it was too dangerous. It was because it was boring as hell.
August 20, 2020
Most of the humor is aggressively vulgar, a constant stream of swear words and dick jokes that come off as a desperate effort to appear edgy and transgressive.
August 20, 2020
The series is outrageous, funny and it pushes boundaries more than you expect.
