Jamey Giddens of Zap2it said it was "too bad" Porte never received "any material worth his talent during his stint", also saying, "Dude isn't a bad actor!" "On-Air On-Soaps" said Porte's dismissal came "just as fans were starting to dig evil Ricky Williams". Giddens predicted Porte's exit within the storyline would give Paul's tear ducts "a workout".
