“I Saw The TV Glow is about the places we escape to when we don’t feel at home in the real world and the brutal truth that even fantasy has its limits.” – Jourdain Searles, Hollywood Reporter
“It has a mix of styles, ideas, and emotions fitting for this chaotic moment in a trans person’s life.” – Drew Gregory, Autostraddle
