Overview
- The Hawk began streaming on Netflix on July 16, 2026 as a 10-episode, roughly 30-minute first season created by Will Ferrell, Harper Steele and Chris Henchy.
- Critics have given predominantly negative reviews and Rotten Tomatoes registered a low critics’ score in the mid-20s based on initial reviews.
- Common criticisms cite the series’ length, repetitive jokes and a central character many called narcissistic or mean-spirited, with reviewers saying the half-hour episodes often feel stretched.
- Several reviewers singled out the supporting cast for praise, especially Fortune Feimster’s caddie role and chemistry with Ferrell, plus strong turns from Molly Shannon and Jimmy Tatro.
- Production veterans from Ferrell’s past worked on the show for Gloria Sanchez and T-Street and a single outlet reported an early second-season renewal that has not been independently confirmed, leaving Netflix’s next steps dependent on audience response and viewing data.
