Why It Doesn't Deserve 10 Stars
- Carl Azuz, the show's main news reporter, is very annoying and acts more like a comedian than an actual news reporter. Carl Azuz was later replaced by a new host in September 2022 in which Coy Wire now hosts the show nowadays.
- Not to mention, he fires off too many cringeworthy puns in a row at the end of each episode.
- ID Me and 10 Second Trivia are complete buffoonery, especially the latter; it asks questions that even three-year-olds would know, and it usually asks about states around the world, which gets boring after a while.
- Whenever CNN 10 is aired on a Friday, Carl Azuz always goes on about how awesome Fridays are and always rushes through the news as well.
- He also repeats the quote "Fridays are awesome!".
- Their news tend to either consist of either hurricanes, economical issues, retail apocalypse (closures of brick-and-mortar retail stores) or state wars, which also gets boring after a while as well, and it also makes this show extremely useless when it comes to teaching students.
- At the end of each news, ten out of ten categories are introduced, and it is very unnecessary because it's only used as an excuse to make reports on either everyday objects or people. Also, there was once ten out of ten categories involving a basketball player trying to make a trick shot where he shoots the basketball way up into the air, but they edited it to make it look like he made it, although he missed. The 10 out of 10 music can also be ear-piercing.
- September 2022, is the year where CNN 10 received a big overhaul. In which the host Carl Azuz was replaced with Coy Wire, most of the transitions looked and felt way cheaper, and for some reason, they advertise their YouTube channel on Mondays through Thursdays rather than using stock footage for the background at the end of the episode.
- Generic EDM themes for the older episodes. The power pop/pop punk theme for the newer episodes is also quite generic.
Qualities That Deserve 10 Stars
- Catchy theme song and intro.
- Some good episodes.
- It gets interesting here and there.
- It is less biased in news reporting than its predecessor and the main CNN network.[citation needed]
- Around the end of the school year, it tries to get as much news reported as possible before the school year is over.
- Coy Wire is a better host than Carl Azuz, despite the cheaper stuff that came with him.
Reception
CNN 10 has received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics and audiences over the years. Several CNN 10 episodes had more dislikes than likes prior to YouTube removing the dislike counter.[citation needed]
Trivia
- Many of the pre-2019 episodes have long been removed from the official CNN website, thus forcing you to watch them on YouTube, if not through other means.
