Finny McCloud of "The World of TV & Film" said,"Benny & Rafi really express the rather unknown connections between objects in our world like how they found a connection between Edgar Allan Poe and the Hot Air Balloon."
After previewing the series' very first episode, Tom Conroy of Medialife Magazine concluded that although the "rules of TruTV’s Six Degrees of Everything are infinitely stretchable", the Fine Brothers' stretches "are strained and silly." And in speaking only toward that first episode, decided that while the comedy shtick would be okay if in a shorter format, it overwhelms a 30-minute segment. [12]
