"Moss Piglets" is the eighth episode of the twenty-first season of the American animated television series South Park.
When Nathan and Mimsy try to take credit for the water bears progression and refer to them as government workers, they reveal that they are actually with the National Football League (NFL) led by Jerry Jones.
"[1] Jesse Schedeen of IGN gave the episode an 8.6 out of 10 rating and summarized in his review that "'Moss Piglets' showcases South Park doing what it does best – telling a mostly standalone story about the kids getting into wacky shenanigans with a sprinkle of continuity and a dash of topical humor.
While this episode dabbled in some familiar subject matter, it managed to deliver an entertaining take-down of the NFL and establish Heidi as a true force to be reckoned with.
"[2] Chris Longo of Den of Geek gave the episode a 2 out of 5 stars rating, stating in his review that "The promise of Nathan and Mimsy took a backseat to Jerry Jones and the NFL searching for new fans to make up for people tuning out the NFL because of protests, concussions, or because generally the league puts out a trash product on a weekly basis.
Even for viewers fed up with the NFL, the storyline came out of nowhere, barely connects to the glorious Water Bears, and wastes the potential of Nathan and Mimsy, and Jimmy and Timmy for that matter.
