Critics treated the DVD's additional behind-the-scenes featurette, "The Making of Blonde and Blonder", with a fair amount of respect: "This featurette ...is actually somewhat entertaining", "it at least appears that it was fun making this movie", "the film looks like it was a hoot to make", "the occasional interview goof makes it interesting."
