In a four out of five review, Caroline Framke of Vulture described the premiere episode as "trippy" but also "successfully intriguing". Framke saw it "wild" for the return of Agatha Harkness since the character has not been "billed on the same supervillain level" such as Thanos or Doctor Doom. She felt Hahn's police detective performance as a Miss Congeniality (2000) "threw pre-makeover Sandra Bullock into True Detective" having a breakdown, and clarified it as a compliment.[3]
