"I feel like a broken record praising this season of Grey's Anatomy . It's the best season the show's done in at least half a decade, and its doing it without being "old school". Old school Grey's was a brand new show with a huge audience that flitted in and out each week. They had to keep people watching by throwing huge emotions and huge disasters at the audience. This Grey's renaissance is a result of comfort." - FemPop [3]
The episode was well received by the television critics. Spoilertv wrote, "Season 11 so far has been strong – stronger, even, than season 10 and certainly season 9." [4] The TV Addict also praised the episode, Oh, how I've missed you GREY'S, how I've missed you. After a week of absence this week's episode was a biggie." [5]
Entertainment Weekly gave a positive review stating, "This week, there were many elements being juggled, which made for a fine hour, though it wasn't anything particularly special for the show that has proven before that it knows how to handle its ensemble. By separating everyone out somewhat distinctly, the episode didn't flow as well as it could have. But like I said, it was perfectly fine." [6] and added, "the episode had its moments: The Jackson-April story played well, and I can't tell you how happy I am that Meredith and Derek are finally smiling at each other/"showering" together. Also, Jo and Alex are great. If only everything ran together a bit more smoothly, I'd have no complaints."
