Season 2 adds Matt Besser as Miranda's estranged father. Netflix described the show as "a strange family comedy, and a comment about today's society and our fascination with fame."

The event is named for Miranda Sings' signature slogan that he uses when responding to negative comments on his YouTube video.

Miranda Sings
Since 2008, Colleen Ballinger has posted the video as a talentless, narcissistic and unique character, Miranda Sings, especially on the Miranda Sings YouTube channel. The character is a bad satire, but selfish, the players who record themselves sing as a form of self-promotion. Miranda is portrayed as an eccentric and infantilized eccentric young woman, narcissistically believing that she was born famous, and obsessed with the fame of show business. Miranda uses Spoonerisms and malapropisms, irritable, selfish, selfish, socially awkward, and has a challenging and arrogant attitude. He responds to those who offer criticism with his slogan, "Haters backwards!"
In March 2009, Ballinger uploaded a Miranda video called "Free Voice Lessons", full of terrible singing advice, which quickly became her first viral sensation. This led to a request for Ballinger to appear live as Miranda, and he then began touring around the world. The Miranda Sings YouTube channel has received more than 1 billion views and has over 8 million subscribers, while Ballinger's private YouTube channel has over 900 million views and 5 million subscribers. Miranda has appeared in the characters on the television show and Ballinger released a 2015 book, Selp-Helf , written in the voice of Miranda, who was ranked No. 1. 1 at The New York Times Best Sellers list for Suggestions, How-To & amp; Miscellaneous.
Development
Ballinger told the interviewer that he and his brother Chris began to develop ideas for performances about five or six years before the premiere. Initially they considered the treatment of the film but then decided on the television serial format. Ballinger chose Netflix via HBO to generate Hat Hat Back Off because he felt Netflix understood and was enthusiastic about his character and origin and his online fanbase. Comparing the show to Christopher Guest's Waiting for Guffman, Perry Rein's retainer said: "This is the first time we've done a show about really bad dancers and singers. [It has] a character that carries them. serious in their very small world. "This event is one of the first draft series created by the personality of YouTube.
On YouTube, Miranda always has an off-stage relationship with her mom and uncle, and Ballinger long had an idea for Miranda's best friend, Patrick, but both characters were first seen in Season 1 of the series. Emily, Miranda's sister, was also introduced as a new character in Series 1. Ballinger said that she wanted to use a longer format of the series to expose Miranda's vulnerabilities and make her believable; to explain the source of insecurity that made Miranda so rude and eccentric. Emily is the only normal person in the Miranda family, but they treat her as strange, like Marilyn in The Munsters. The series extends Miranda's world visible on YouTube. Miranda represents "an extreme version of what an ordinary gawky teen might feel." Season 2 introduces Miranda's estranged father, played by Matt Besser.

Reception
The first season of The Back Off Hater received mixed criticism from critics. At Rotten Tomatoes, the season ranked 47%, based on 17 reviews, with an average rating of 4.67/10. The site's important consensus reads, " The Official Hater Back Off is weird, painful, and often very funny - but YouTube's transport attractiveness did not get carried away in a longer television format. " At Metacritic, the season had a score of 54 out of 100, based on 9 critics, showing "mixed or averaged reviews". The show debuts as the 2nd most popular digital original series in the US for the week of October 14-20, 2016. It won the "Best Comedy" award at the CelebMix Awards 2016.
Positive reviews from Season 1 include Robert Lloyd's at the Los Angeles Times, which observes that, unlike in the YouTube video Miranda, the action of characters in TV series has consequences and affects other characters and their feelings. Lloyd thinks that this series works "shaping a funny idea into a life resemblance". He praised the show, especially Kinsey. The Guardian scored two positive reviews: Brian Moylan called this series a "funny transfer to Netflix.... Ballinger gets something that is not just a cultural critique but often touches the ego's fragility and everyone needs to accept. "In their other review, Stuart Heritage wrote:" This is a single uniform comedy about the effects of fame, and often very funny.... [I am] extraordinary, after you adjust to his habits. "Melanie McFarland, at NPR, compares Miranda's world with Pee-wee Herman, saying that they are a very funny world, cartoons that are also strangely innocent. there is something wrong about it that makes it very true. '"Daniel D'Addario wrote in Time magazine that this series is" not perfect, but it is more than it should be... Ballinger checks what obsession by having fans of papers and new problems that he created. "The Paste Magazine ranked the" Haters Back Off "as the 9th best" Netflix Original Series 2016 "Jon O'Brien later write for Metro :
Even if you're not a fan of Miranda Sings... there's still plenty to be enjoyed about Haters Back Off . Slightly extraordinary absurd because Uncle is almost identical to Miranda himself, while Reale brings out pure sympathy as the only "normal" character that is regularly overwhelmed by his brother's ambitions. And by combining the strange city suburbia of Napoleon Dynamite and the cartoon antics of Pee-wee Herman, the show remains one of Netflix's most strange natives.
TheWrap's Michael E. Ross calls this series "funny, sometimes wise, often laugh-out-hard funny art imitating life imitating art", noting that "there comes a time... when the ego layer is stripped away, and we find a young woman who shy and insecure behind harassment. Haters reflect a sincere sense of humor about the origins of online celebrities... [W] hat resonates... is the underlying humanity of Miranda, her basic encouragement to be acknowledged , to stand apart from the crowd, and we can all relate to the pain of rejection ". Jasef Wisener from TVOvermind.com gave the series 3.8 stars out of 5. He was very impressed with the development of characters and performances, especially Ballinger and Reale's. He also liked the structure and scores of his music, but felt that the exposition sometimes stalled early in the episode with a detailed explanation and sometimes panders to Miranda's well-established audience on the internet; he feels that the series is improving in the next episode. She dislikes sexual innuendo and finds Miranda's relationship with Uncle Jim uncomfortable, even though this is the element brought from the YouTube video Miranda. The A.V. Club's Danette Chavez commented that "Ballanda's portrayal of Miranda is multidimensional regardless of single mind character...... haters perfecting the environment that would spawn such selfish personality. [L] aughs is consistently delivered "with a comedy funny, though" domestic infighting and even sadness "makes the series almost dramatic. But he feels that "sometimes the shadow is just a little too worrying.... tonal shifts are not always bland."
In the diverse review for the New York Vulture magazine of the site, Jen Chaney judged that "not everything at Haters Back Off! works. You find Miranda Sings annoying after watching a two minute YouTube clip, you have to find something else to put in your queue. But... fans... who have a fair amount of patience are likely to discover some of the redeeming qualities that can be achieved, especially when the episode continues... Miranda is a very annoying character. But Ballinger is committed to her in full and with a specific physi... that she is often fascinated to watch... [But] maybe Miranda Sings is better in more doses short. "Similarly, for The New York Times , James Poniewozik writes that:
Like Miranda's show, Haters can be terrible and stunned at the same time.... Ballinger is committed to hunger and histrionic Miranda.... There is a deeper sadness for Miranda's situation, but this season did not investigate deeply until late, at that time the haters have long since retreated.... There's a lot at Haters Back Off! to satisfy Ms.'s fan base Ballinger on YouTube.... Beyond splendor, there is something human in his film about internet thirst: an insatiable urge to put oneself out into the world and suppress refreshment, refreshment, refreshment.
Brian Lowry, writing for CNN, had the most negative reaction. While he feels that the series' critics of a culture obsessed with fame must have accomplished, and that the next episode "cherishes patience", the show is too "cartoon-like", and "there is a sense that this series extends beyond what is offered." Keith Uhlich, in The Hollywood Reporter, found the jokes funny, but he concluded that although Miranda is "a sour critic of celebrity celebrities who make up the majority of the YouTube community", it's more effective "in short bursts". In the "Netflix series eight episodes... comedians lose the edge". He also thinks that many of the pathos in the series are "unacceptable, inconclusive" and the characters are "shallow ships weighed down by complicated plot complications...... and there's more than a bit of arrogant YouTuber's right 'where the Haters finally ends, satire finally thickens into pomp. "Sonia Saraiya from Variety does not think that this series has" the same organic appeal as the strange Ballinger video, the pastiche-y...... Miranda does not have some innocent naivete that makes her character work on YouTube.... Miranda's behavior... can be very funny [for some viewers], an example of geek-geek self-obsession done by the geek For me, however, Miranda's obsession and perception... proved more tragic than funny. "Rob Lowman of Los Angeles Daily News wrote:" The series seems to want to be somewhere between the worlds of Herman Pee -wee, where M iranda is in its own reality, and Waiting for Guffman or another parody of people who do not understand themselves, do not work well, nor in their own terms.
