Hi there, I'll be reviewing this article. Here are just a few issues I found and some suggestions for improvement:

  • received positive reviews from critics, who praised its combination of subplots involving the Belcher parents and children, as well as Hader's performance as Mickey – a summary of the reviews in the lead could mention "drew positive comparisons to The Simpsons". I'm also not sure about the last clause, since the critics seemed to enjoy Mickey's character rather than Hader's performance specifically.
    • Reworded slightly; incorporated these suggestions into the lead. Holiday56 (talk) 15:04, 13 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • Mickey, whom the family had previously family befriended – I'm assuming the second "family" shouldn't be there?
  • Despite airing as a part of the show's third season, it was actually produced as the twelfth episode of its second season, hence bearing the production code 2ASA12 – the reference given for this is the episode itself, but I'm not sure how the episode could provide this information.
    • The production information/code is listed in the last frame of the episode's ending credits. Holiday56 (talk) 15:04, 13 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • Megan Mullally, who voices the character Aunt Gayle in the series,[5] also guests in the episode – awkward wording; perhaps "also makes a guest appearance in the episode"?
  • Is there any information on the episode's ratings as compared to other networks? Its performance is given in relation to other Animation Domination programs, but if the information is available it would be more valuable to note how it performed against other shows and networks that night.
    • TV by the Numbers gives information on the NBC and CBS programs which it aired alongside the episode – incorporated that into the section. Holiday56 (talk) 15:04, 13 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Other than that, the article is in great shape in accordance with the GA criteria. Well done especially on writing in a very clear manner that makes it easy for non-viewers (such as myself) to understand the plot without any problems. Ping me once you've addressed the issues above or if you have any other questions or comments. :) 97198 (talk) 13:49, 13 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
