Critical reception
7 Television Commercials received mixed reviews from critics. Reviewer Ian Reed felt that "it could have been better".<ref name="Ian Reed"/> Reed also commented on the duration of the video, just over 30 minutes, only seven music videos.
Christian Hoard of Rolling Stone gave the re-release collection of videos 2 out of 4 stars, also mentioning the length of the release: "Why only seven? And no bonus material? You'd think that a band as wary of commercial exploitation as Radiohead wouldn't ask fans to shell out for so slight a souvenir."<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
