The sextet wonders why they've all been drawn to the same farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. The answer is obvious: to give us several good laughs with which to end the weekend. [19 Sep 1992]

As a concept, "Woops!" has satirical possibilities. But they aren't realized in the premiere.

A stupid, boring show with a bleak future. [25 Sep 1992]

Hey, I like laughing at the apocalypse as much as the next guy, but from its title on down, Woops! is depressingly timid, displaying far too little of the Fox network's time-honored tastelessness.

In messages delivered with ball-peen bluntness, the sextet talk of creating ''a new and better world'' from scratch. The only thing better about this one is there's no TV, no Woops! [25 Sep 1992]

It's just about as huge a bomb as might have been expected. [25 Sep 1992]

Something is missing in "Woops!," besides a second joke. ... It could have been the funniest show in the world, if there was a nuclear war, really, and this was the only one show left. "Woops!" is moronic on so many levels. [5 Oct 1992]
