Raised by Wolves received general acclaim; The Daily Telegraph called it "terrific" and "refreshingly honest", as "every one-liner was a zinger." while The Independent said it was "great fun". and "had joie de vivre to spare". The Guardian and The Observer also praised the show, with the latter calling it "highly moreish." Amidst this acclaim, in a review of the pilot episode, The Herald complained about the focus on a character's first period, labelling the comedy "a bloody mess".
With the arrival of the second series in 2016, the Radio Times declared that "the comedy gets even better. And filthier."
The first series attracted an average of 1.3m viewers and 6.3% share of audience per episode, making it Channel 4’s second highest-rating comedy of 2015 to date.
