WOW WOW WOW, Outtakes is an outrageous epic journey packed into a few minutes! It’s sly and artful while appearing artless, at once earnest and tongue in cheek, satirical and poignant. This is the best thing online that does not involve cute disgruntled felines or pornographic corgi images.
— Holly Hughes, performance artist
 

Praise for Outtakes Season 1

An intimate response to a huge personal event... I loved not knowing what I was watching—is it an improvised diary? A scripted soap? A hybrid? Something totally new? I just love everything about it.
— Sheila Callaghan, writer, THAT PRETTY PRETTY; OR, THE RAPE PLAY; Showtime's SHAMELESS
Stop whatever important thing you are doing and watch every single episode of OUTTAKES right now. Sylvan Oswald + Becca Blackwell = Next level. Mind blown.
— Travis Chamberlain, Associate Curator of Performance, New Museum
This is the kind of vital, vibrant, important work that mainstream media never makes and mainstream funders wouldn’t support, but pushes the whole thing forward.
