 Michael Tedder of "New York" praised the writers work and for giving "nice character moments" to the cast, particularly Kinsey.He also praised them for giving Kinsey "more to work with", comparing her role in previous episodes which featured her character being "exaggerated to cartoon levels for the sake of a laugh".ScreenCrush reviewer Damon Houx was slightly more critical with his review, writing that while the cast was quite good, the episode was too struggled with "find[ing] stuff for everyone to do", and that the Pete-Erin-Pam and Jim-Stanley-Phyllis subplots "ultimately have nowhere interesting to go".
