Club claimed that "Manic energy makes Bob's Burgers work best, so having a little too much of it isn't likely to turn the show bad." Despite this, Kaiser claimed that "we get that crazy energy, but it gets excessive. There's a lot of shouting here, without much to balance it out." Kaiser noted that the episode "leans almost entirely Gene, separating the kids from one another for most of the show." He also noted that "It also doesn't help that the boy is so over-the-top awkward that it isn't really a respite, just more crazy." Kaiser concluded his review by giving the episode a grade of "B". Dyanamaria Leifsson of TV Equals also enjoyed the episode, mentioning that "Tina had a funny little side story of her own at the TV studios."

Leifsson concluded her review by claiming that "the summer will seem very long without new Bob's Burgers on Sunday nights and I'm already looking forward to seeing the remaining thirteen episodes as well as the brand new season 3 episodes that are in the works.
