Ulf Lippitz from Spiegel describes the series as “stupid television with musicians participating” and chalked up the fact that one shouldn't have come really close to “the German fun punkers”. Eat or die deliver decent entertainment, be entertaining and guaranteed free from provocation.

In the Süddeutsche Zeitung , Christopher Keil writes that Die Toten Hosen would stage themselves as a therapy group between fun and commerce in the German branch of the music channel.

The triple DVD entered the German charts on July 1, 2005, stayed there for four weeks and reached 34th place as the highest position, while the DVD stayed in the Swiss charts for two weeks from July 10, 2005 and reached number 64.
