Reception

Shirleen Holt of Film.com said: "Victoria Gotti has the warmth of an ice pick and her sons the charm of, well, thugs."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Robert Hofler, reviewing the series for Variety, said that it was too "controlled" and too focused on Victoria Gotti, who also acted as an executive producer, and that "A&E has the potential for a sleeper hit with its new reality TV show [...] but they clearly muffed the title. 'Mommy as Monster' is closer to the target."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Alessandra Stanley, of The New York Times, said that the show was "a one-joke novelty item, but it is at times quite funny and Ms. Gotti is an oddly compelling figure.".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Genovese Crime Family Soldier Ciro Perrone and Ralph Scopo were recorded on tape criticizing the show, with Perrone commenting "it’s a soap opera, and the kids look like girls".

Reunion

On November 10, 2014, the network aired a one-hour anniversary special entitled Growing Up Gotti: Ten Years Later. The special featured Victoria Gotti and her three sons who reunited to talk about the highlights of their family reality series. Growing up Gotti: 10 Years Later was produced by Left/Right.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
