Critical reception.
In the June 30, 1973 issue, "Billboard" published a review which said, "TV's "other family" is a happy collective blending of rich harmonies and finely honed voices. This is an easy to take collection of pop tunes which will appeal to a specific audience which knows and enjoys this act. All the music is straight out in the open; there are no hidden messages or subliminal effects. Rather the instrumental sound of the orchestra is driving and as modern as can be developed. Producer Jackie Mills has skillfully handled all the components with an affection which is matched by arranger Al Capps who fires up the orchestra." The review noted "I'd Love You to Want Me", "A Simple Man", and "Parallel Lines" as the best cuts on the album, with a note to album dealers that "this act appeals to young kids who are loyal to the TV series and who come out in droves for their concerts."
"Cashbox" published a review in the July 7, 1973 issue that said, "Those bright eyed, bushy tailed, dimpled darlings from the TV series of the same name are back again with a wonderfully surprising album that should do much to further their career as music performers. Armed with an entourage of solid studio musicians supplying powerful background music, the Bunch delightfully prance through such good timey material as "Summer Breeze", "Charlotte's Web", "I'd Love You to Want Me", and their great "Zuckerman's Famous Pig" single. Classify this one as simply adorable. Check it out."
