Reception 
The Guardian reviewed the documentary, saying that "We need Hanson exposed for what she is and what she's for, and that's what Broinowski’s documentary does so well: it illuminates a hare-brained and bizarre woman, and the political cynics who direct her."

The New Daily published an analysis of the program by Denise Eriksen, writing that "it’s one of the best television programmes you are likely to see all year."

Hanson livestreamed herself watching and commenting upon the documentary, stating that many of her critics misunderstood her comments due to her always being under public scrutiny. Mashable remarked upon Hanson's stream, dubbed the "Pauline Hanson 'social media echo chamber'" by The Sydney Morning Herald, which they felt was "the weirdest thing you'll see on the internet all day".
