Plank Magazine | November 18, 2010 | Justin Haigh & Ryan West
“Notable Individual Performers: Ian MacIntyre of Approximately Three Peters definitely won some notable favour with his righteous Shitty Beards rant, showing as much skill as an impassioned orator as a sketch comedian.”
(On Approximately 3 Peters) “…a visually dynamic James Bond opening sequence that kicked off their set with an undeniable high note. Luckily they managed to continually hurdle the high bar they’d set for themselves…”

Sketchy Situations
Now Toronto | October 28, 2010 | Glen Sumi
(On Approximately 3 Peters) “Nobody puts on a full-length show like Peter Gal, Pete Hill and Ian MacIntyre, a trio of geeky, likeable guys… Their imaginative, slightly absurd act works just as well in smaller chunks, as they’re sure to prove November 6…”
(On The Sketchersons) “The group behind the weekly Sunday Night Live show has proven a breeding ground for some of the best talent the country has to offer.”

Preview: Toronto Sketch Comedy Festival: APPROXIMATELY 3 PETERS
Panic Manual | November 05, 2009 | Wade Vroom
“Approximately 3 Peters are certainly among the heavy hitters in the Toronto sketch scene. Pete, Peter and Ian have been making a name for themselves since 2005. You may recognize Ian MacIntyre as one of the finalists on CBC’s reality TV show, Second City’s Next Comedy Legend.”
Political Theatre Moves To The Stages
Toronto Star | October 05, 2008 | Susan Walker

Best Of Sketchfest 2008 (Chicago)
Timeout Chicago | January 15, 2008 | Steve Heisler
“Peppy and smart, the 3 Peters’ show mixed time travel humor with bits about bitter ex-Beatles and confessions from cops trapped in a bank vault.”
Sketchfest Weekend
Chicagoist | January 8, 2008 | Justin Sondak
“The strongest Peter (heh heh…) is actually named Ian, and his facial quirks alone could’ve carried the set. His turn as Paul McCartney, desperate to become the last surviving Beatle, was the hour’s highlight.”
Pet3rs Kill Time
Eye Weekly | October 17, 2007 | Sean Davidson
“Like most nerds, the guys behind Approximately 3 Peters have put a lot of thought into time travel — “Should I buy Apple stock in 1980 or try to kill Hitler?” — though, in this case, Peter Gal, Pete Hill and Ian MacIntyre came up with enough material on the subject to fill an entire show. “
