Reception

The series has received positive reviews. Anna Brand of The Daily Beast cited hosts Nikki Glaser and Sara Schaefer's "refreshing lack of diva behavior," "harmless sarcasm," and real-life "closeness" as crucial elements to the success of the show, which she deemed "late-night TV's best-kept secret."[7] Jezebel writer Erin Gloria Ryan called the show "pretty great, like having a slumber party with the girls you thought you were never cool enough to be friends in high school with but who turn out to be super nice."[8]
