Reception
Alasdair Wilkins from The A.V. Club gave the episode a "B+" and wrote that "that speaks to how all the Belchers function: sometimes as a bridge to us in the audience, but mostly just there to support their equally silly loved ones. It’s a winning combination."[1]
The episode received a 1.2 rating and was watched by a total of 2.46 million people.[2]
