Mostly unwatchable because it's boring and inarticulate and Cenk Uygur is relentlessly unfunny.

I actually don't mind watching them every now and then for election coverage, but a lot of their other stuff is basically a far-left soapbox for someone who does very poor fact checking. At times, they can let bias get in the way of reporting, for example when making a story about talking to each politician's supporters they cherry picked supporters making everyone who didn't support Sanders look like an uneducated dolt. I appreciate their solo journalism gig, but I think they're disingenuous.

Obnoxious, vaguely soc-dem Liberals use money from a banker to mock easy-target, low-hanging neo-con Liberals. Thus the illusion of plurality in American politics is maintained.

Watching clips of them on election night 2016 and getting clowned by Alex Jones at the RNC was hilarious. That said they did have a few really good field reporters and had some "I told you so" clout in the wake of Clinton's loss. Of course this was all squandered within a couple of years with Cenk turning out to be a delusional narcissist, and Dore revealed as a grifter who advocates for a red-brown alliance.

Arrogant and a to a moderate degree uninformed panel, who too often ascribe greater significance to issues, simplify issues to an unacceptable extent and overuse anecdotal evidence to support claims contradictory to the scientific method they praise. Edit: the Jones incident revealed the above problems, in addition to uncovering others, to be far more problematic than I thought. Also, they pander; also, the Wolfpac stuff is predicated on a horridly reductionistic account of politics.

Annoying and problematic but not much more so than pretty much every other news outlet.
