Ahsan Haque of IGN thought that the episode has some "unfunny (not funny) ideas" but that it "succeeds for the most part". He said that there was a better balance of humor and story. Genevieve Koski of "The A.V. Club" did not like how the episode started with "Jackass", but he thought that the rest of the story is "far superior". Robin Pierson from The TV Critic did not like how the jokes were put together. He said that the episode has "no point to it."
