Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
Between the thoughtfulness with which the series tells the story of Wrexham’s everyday supporters, the light touch it takes when incorporating the club’s players and staff, and the winking ribbing it weaves through all the “Ryan and Rob” bits as an exercise to keep them from coming off as too self-serious or driven by ego, Welcome to Wrexham has set itself up to turn in one of the more engaging, down-to-earth, funny sports stories in recent memory.

Season 1 Review:
The beauty is, it works wonderfully. ... There’s nothing cynical about the show, but nor is this a gawpy real-life Ted Lasso with clockwork tearjerker scenes. And somehow, this direct, honest approach makes the whole production more affecting than it might otherwise be.

Season 1 Review:
If you found Ted Lasso too cloying to watch, Welcome to Wrexham might be more enjoyable, as it’s a less-dopey version of the same story. But all Ted Lasso viewers—or football/soccer fans in general—will appreciate Welcome to Wrexham as a pacifier while we wait for Season 3.

Season 1 Review:
Welcome to Wrexham desperately wants to position itself as "the real 'Ted Lasso,'" but that's only part of what's going on in this FX docuseries, in which Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney buy a struggling Welsh soccer team. The resulting series is a little of this, a bit of that, and like its featured franchise, plays more like a wannabe than a true contender.
