Reception
John Schwarz of Bubbleblabber gave Welcome to the Club a five out of ten stating "The late Pat Carroll is spinning in her grave for this one. Yes, we get another Tom Hiddleston cameo, but really this short is quite skippable. The song, while containing some funny lyrics, abruptly ends and really features no resolve to the initial bit the producers were trying to pull off with Lisa. As cool as it was to see The Simpsons again after several months off, the shorts are starting to irk me a bit in their execution".[16]
