Critical reception
Writing in Irish Film Critic, Thomas Tunstall reported that the show's "subject matter runs all over the board, as if designed for an audience with attention deficit disorder. Though Shatner enthusiastically poses many questions, he provides far fewer satisfactory answers – perhaps by design in order to retain the sense of mystery."[2]
