Entertainment Weekly named it the worst Simpsons episode of all time, stating that, "while Bart to the Future was likely better than anything else on TV the week it first aired, even Mojo the monkey could've banged out a more inventive script," and that, "We didn't know it was physically possible for something to both suck AND blow."

The title is a pun on Back to the Future.

Trivia
