During the credits, shots of Homer Simpson clones are shown at work as a Barry White-like singer is heard singing in the background about not wanting to be intimate with the object of the song. Reception. "Kamp Krustier" was watched by 2.56 million people and scored a 1.1 rating with a 4 share, making it Fox's highest rated show of the night. Dennis Perkins of "The A.V. Club" gave the episode a  C− stating, "Well, no one can accuse "The Simpsons" of trampling all over one of its all-time best episodes. Actually, wait—I can, as the 24-seasons-removed 'Kamp Krustier' finds a way to revisit the classic Simpsons episode 'Kamp Krusty' without expanding on it, deconstructing it, or even making a memorable travesty of it. That long-absent original 'Kamp Krusty' writer David M. Stern returned to the show as main credited writer for the first time in some 18 years and produced something so innocuously unmemorable is a genuine disappointment." Tony Sokol of "Den of Geek" gave the  episode four out of five stars stating "'Kamp Krustier' is a flashback episode that's heavy on couples' therapy and repression, but don't let that fool you, it's still a foolhardy enterprise".
