In 2007, Simon Crerar of ''[[The Times]]'' listed Tony Hawk's performance as one of the thirty-three funniest cameos in the history of the show.<ref name="Crerar">{{cite news|last=Crerar|first=Simon|title=The 33 funniest Simpsons cameos ever|url=https://www.thetimes.com/sunday-times-rich-list/profile/article/the-33-funniest-simpsons-cameos-ever-vg9jgq67gxr|access-date=2022-01-28|newspaper=[[The Times]]|date=2007-07-05|archive-date=May 17, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110517054959/http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/film/article2021776.ece|url-status=live}}</ref>

In 2011, Colin Jacobson of ''DVD Movie Guide'' said the episode seems dated due to the appearance of Blink-182 and Tony Hawk, who were popular in the early 2000s. He also thought the episode "isn't bad, but it's ordinary."<ref>{{cite web|first=Colin|last=Jacobson|date=December 16, 2011|title=The Simpsons: The Complete Fourteenth Season [Blu-Ray] (2002)|url=http://www.dvdmg.com/simpsonsseasonfourteen.shtml|website=DVD Movie Guide|access-date=November 9, 2024|archive-date=August 23, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120823020618/http://www.dvdmg.com/simpsonsseasonfourteen.shtml|url-status=live}}</ref>

On ''Four Finger Discount'', Guy Davis and Brendan Dando also thought the guest stars were reflective of the early 2000s. They enjoyed the episode and liked the premise of Bart tiring of Homer's treatment of him.<ref>{{cite podcast|first1=Guy|last1=Davis|first2=Brendan|last2=Dando|title=Barting Over (S14E11)|work=Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast)|date=October 29, 2021|url=https://fourfingerdiscount.podbean.com/e/barting-over-simpsons-podcast-review/|time=2:00|access-date=November 9, 2024}}</ref>

In 2023, [[Tony Sokol]] of ''[[Den of Geek]]'' named the episode the 9th best episode of the series from the 2000s. He called it "one of the most callous entries in ''The Simpsons'' canon" for having Homer waste the money intended for Bart. He also thought "[t]he episode comes together" with the appearances by Blink-182 and Tony Hawk.<ref>{{cite web|first=Tony|last=Sokol|author-link=Tony Sokol|date=May 7, 2023|title=The Best Simpsons Episodes of the '00s|url=https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/the-best-simpsons-episodes-of-the-00s/|website=[[Den of Geek]]|access-date=November 9, 2024|archive-date=May 22, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240522220353/https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/the-best-simpsons-episodes-of-the-00s/|url-status=live}}</ref>
