''Hitting the Fan'' received critical acclaim from critics, with some ranking it among their best episodes, but with a few noting it works best for those who had closely followed the show.
 
Chris Harnick of [[The Huffington Post]] called it a "riveting hour of TV that I wished could have lasted forever."<ref>[http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-harnick/the-good-wife-hitting-the-fan-recap_b_4152717.html The Huffington Post]</ref> [[James Poniewozik]] of [[Time (magazine)|Time]] stated, "You title an episode “Hitting the Fan,” and you had best ''bring'' it. Last night’s '''''The Good Wife'''''–in which Lockhart Gardner discovered Alicia and Cary’s plans to bolt the firm–brought it."<ref>[http://entertainment.time.com/2013/10/28/the-good-wife-watch-this-means-war/ Time magazine]</ref> [[Alan Sepinwall]] on [[HitFix]] said that, "Earlier this week, I wrote about how terrific this season of "The Good Wife" has been, and tonight's episode was a cut above even what's come before.<ref>[http://www.hitfix.com/whats-alan-watching/review-the-good-wife-hitting-the-fan-the-firing-line#GVJvbcdwKdkKd64k.99 Hitflix]</ref> On [[The A.V. Club]] it won the ''Golden TV Dinner'' in their ''Tournament of Episodes'' by beating the "[[Cooperative Polygraphy]]" episode of ''[[Community (TV series)|Community]]''. In the discussion Myles McNutt praised it for "pulling every piece of the show into the fray and never looking back" while [[Scott Von Doviak]] voted for "[[Cooperative Polygraphy]]" instead as he felt "Hitting the Fan" might be best for longtime viewers. Zack Handlen also indicated "Hitting the Fan" might be less rewarding to newcomers.<ref>[http://www.avclub.com/article/its-community-versus-good-wife-tournament-episodes-206002 The A.V.
