Some viewers took to Twitter to express their disappointment with the celebrity satire, with one person writing: "#TheBubble is a missed opportunity. It starts off brilliantly and then just loses steam. Also a little too early to genuinely find funny when the pandemic is far from over," while another added: "Just finished watching #TheBubble on @netflix! DON'T BOTHER WATCHING!"
A third person commented: "I was so looking forward to this but it’s just a huge disappointment #TheBubble."
