History Horrible / WesternAnimation

* '''''WesternAnimation/{{Fairview}}''''' is Comedy Central's attempt to create a SpiritualSuccessor to ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' (which they used as a lead-in to attract viewers) and is also part of a new adult animation push into streaming services, yet it ended up being one of the most reviled attempts at an AnimatedShockComedy in recent years. It fails at political commentary as its "satire" ends up being far too [[ShallowParody shallow]] and [[{{Anvilicious}} unsubtle]] to hold any water (such as [[TakeThat potshots]] towards anti-vaxxers that amount to them saying that they're against vaccines because they're stupid). The show’s non-political humor isn’t much better, mostly consisting of tired ToiletHumour, shock and gross-out humor, and sex jokes, all delivered with very little actual humor or cleverness. The character designs resemble creepy-looking nesting dolls with overly-detailed, ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}''-style human faces that horribly clash with the simplistic bodies and look more like emojis than actual characters. The characters themselves are [[FlatCharacter flat]] and receive no development. What's more, the voice acting was literally phoned in over '''Zoom''', making it unprofessional and jarring to the point that WebVideo/{{Saberspark}} reported that he recoiled in pain while watching the series. It received enormously negative reviews by getting a 1.4 on [=IMDb=], making the series the lowest-rated Comedy Central cartoon ever. WebVideo/{{LS Mark}} also dissects [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs0CESi_-Xg this dreadful mess]], alongside other inept clones of ''South Park'' that were also ironically made by Comedy Central.

*** It sexualized female characters to a disturbing degree, even before you learn about how Kricfalusi was accused of sexual abuse by several female animators who worked under him. Nowhere is this more evident than the episode "Naked Beach Frenzy", which was a paper-thin excuse to ogle objectified female caricatures -- many of which were ''based'' on said animators. And any ability to watch it completely collapses when you learn that he roped in animator Katie Rice to ''voice'' the character "based" on her (known only as "Soap Girl").

*** It was poorly executed. Its pacing is absolutely ''atrocious''; its episodes are incredibly long and feel slower than even the worst episodes of the original series. The show's habit of just [[LeaveTheCameraRunning lingering on the "action"]] killed whatever momentum the jokes had, making an already unfunny and crass adult "comedy" flat-out insufferable. This trait is at its absolute nadir in "Fire Dogs 2", where there are two scenes dedicated to Creator/RalphBakshi taking a crap that both go on for minutes; the second one follows it up with a similarly long bit of Ren and Stimpy trying to dispose of said crap. Kricfalusi himself [[CreatorBacklash admitted]] to the episode's sluggish pacing.

** '''''WesternAnimation/CansWithoutLabels''''' is an animated film that was also intended to be Kricfalusi's comeback. Instead, it completely torpedoed what was left of his career (well, that and [[OvershadowedByControversy several sexual assault allegations]] that were revealed in 2018). The film was announced in 2008 and crowdfunded on Website/{{Kickstarter}} in 2012 before spending seven years in DevelopmentHell, suggesting it was a labor of love -- but it turned out to betray almost everything Kricfalusi preached as an animator. Rather than use his trademark DerangedAnimation to advance a story, he pushed it to wild extremes to cover for the paper-thin plot. His notorious perfectionism bore no results; the editing is a mess on all fronts, from the production to the acting to the sound, with one piece of background music noticeably and jarringly ending abruptly. The animation similarly looks incredibly cheap; the camera refuses to stop zooming and panning, and the backgrounds are inconsistent between scenes. He even [[TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects uses CG]] -- and [[SpecialEffectFailure jarring, ugly CG]] -- despite having long decried using CG in 2D animation.[[note]]Even worse, the CG models in the short are actually assets which are supposed to be ''traced''. This means that Kricfalusi, a notorious perfectionist, used stock assets in what was supposed to be his magnum opus.[[/note]] And the main conflict is resolved using a mean-spirited [[Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg Seltzerberg]]-esque parody of WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck, presumably as a TakeThat to Creator/{{Disney}}. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter elaborates on the short itself [[https://youtu.be/HCbgXDQoMF4 here]], Daniel Ibbertson goes into detail on what happened with its Website/{{Kickstarter}} situation [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH54JGZjzRI here]], and [=TheGrandMac=] discusses the short [[https://youtu.be/ydzNPLo_H14 here]], as well as the animatic for a [[WhatCouldHaveBeen planned]] ''Ren & Stimpy'' short to accompany [[WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobMovieSpongeOutOfWater the second SpongeBob movie]].

*** Kricfalusi was hoping to use the show as a CareerResurrection. Instead, it helped bury his flagship franchise for about a decade. He was reduced to working on animating music videos and commercials, as well as his blog Blog/JohnKStuff and his personal project ''Cans Without Labels'' (which, as you'll see, is the ''other'' CreatorKiller he made). In 2020, when Creator/ComedyCentral announced a new adult revival of ''Ren and Stimpy'', they made certain Kricfalusi wouldn't be involved in any way, and even then, observers were wary. Creator/SpikeTV, meanwhile, was hoping to make ''Adult Party Cartoon'' the flagship of its animation block; instead, they had to scrap it entirely.[[note]]The other two shows, ''WesternAnimation/{{Stripperella}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/GaryTheRat'', weren't well received either, but neither drew the revulsion that ''Adult Party Cartoon'' did.[[/note]]

* '''''Leo & Layla's History Adventures'''''. Ignoring the fact that the notorious American right-wing think tank [=PragerU=] is behind it, the show offers very little of substance and quality. The animation is [[UnintentionalUncannyValley unnecessarily creepy]] -- characters move and speak like poorly-automated machines amidst lifeless plastic backdrops. The show bungles its core premise - two kids going back in time to meet historical figures - by not only [[ArtisticLicenseHistory mischaracterizing those historical figures' values and beliefs]] in a bizarre inversion of PoliticallyCorrectHistory (for example, UsefulNotes/GalileoGalilei espousing anti-science[=/=]anti-vaccination beliefs or radical figures such as Frederick Douglass and Martin Luther King, Jr. being portrayed as more moderate than they actually were) but also having them make arguments built on logic not even kids could follow--sometimes even in contradiction with the episode's moral. The show offers very little in the way of fun or entertainment value for its intended audience, as episodes almost entirely consist of characters having long conversations with almost no action or humor to keep kids captivated. Its shoddy production values and the incoherent story will drive away all but the most zealous right-wing parents and educators, and everyone else will be alienated by it being a mouthpiece for [=PragerU=]'s politics. Big Joel dissects the show [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKJU0K_ebfU here]]; Creator/HunterAvallone's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGp3gULsLpI review]] is also worth checking out. Even WebVideo/YourMovieSucksDotOrg got in on the action and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92dYqTiiF1c reviewed the Neil Armstrong video]], concluding that its InsaneTrollLogic would be meaningless to children. Worst of all, the Florida Board of Education (under far-right governor Ron [=DeSantis=]) approved the use of [=PragerU=] Kids content in schools, meaning that the aforementioned zealous right-wing educators have the option to ''use the show as teaching material!''

* '''''WesternAnimation/TheIdhunChronicles''''' was a Spanish {{Animesque}} cartoon that adapts Laura Gallego's ''Literature/TheIdhunsMemories'' young-adult book trilogy, but it was poorly received by both critics and fans of the trilogy by making the series pandering with the setting being in the modern times using smartphones (despite the original books being published in 2004) The animation has a cheap-looking quality that can often seem unfinished, sometimes, the story feels pretty rushed, and the characters become {{Flanderiz|ation}}ed into one-dimensional cardboard cutouts. But the biggest criticism will be the original Spanish dub featuring celebrities with little experience in voice acting like Itzan Escamilla and Nico Romero (both of whom just so happened to have played parts in other Spanish Creator/{{Netflix}} originals, leading to accusations of ExecutiveMeddling), with their voices being ill fits for their respective characters and sounding bored out of their lines. After this, the series was quickly cancelled, with the last season being released without any promotion.

*** It was poorly executed. Its pacing is absolutely ''atrocious''; its episodes are incredibly long and feel slower than even the worst episodes of the original series. The show's habit of just [[LeaveTheCameraRunning lingering on the "action"]] killed whatever momentum the jokes had, making an already unfunny and crass adult "comedy" flat-out insufferable. This trait is at its absolute nadir in "Fire Dogs 2", where there are two scenes dedicated to Creator/RalphBakshi taking a crap that goes on for minutes; the second one follows it up with a similarly long bit of Ren and Stimpy trying to dispose of said crap. Kricfalusi himself [[CreatorBacklash admitted]] to the episode's sluggish pacing.

* '''Creator/JohnKricfalusi''''s fall from grace hit hard. In UsefulNotes/TheNineties, he was one of the biggest names in animation. But in UsefulNotes/TheNewTens, a pair of {{Creator Killer}}s (among other things, capped off with a series of sexual assault allegations) knocked him out of the industry and ruined his credibility. Both of those cartoons were Horrible, even though he was given total creative control; they perfectly encapsulate how ProtectionFromEditors is [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools not always a good thing]] and how [[FranchiseOriginalSin the very qualities that put his work on the map can be taken too far]]:

** The AnimatedAdaptation of '''''Webcomic/LeastICouldDo''''': The animation is ''slightly'' better than ''Ctrl+Alt+Del'', though almost anything would be; that's not enough to salvage the rest of the show. It takes every flaw the {{webcomic}} has and multiplies it exponentially. The first lyric of the theme song is "Wouldn't it be great if no one ever got offended?" which should clue viewers in that what they're about to watch isn't exactly going to handle adult themes in a mature, responsible manner. In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3eZY2_Di1c the clip of the pilot posted on their YouTube channel]] alone, we're introduced to the main character Rayne Summers, who has to be the biggest, most intolerable douchebag imaginable. Couple this with bland, repetitive humor that can be best described as "horny" and a waste of good voice actors like Creator/YuriLowenthal, Creator/TaraPlatt, and Creator/SteveBlum, stir well, and you've got a cartoon so bad it's a wonder anyone ever bothers adapting webcomics into animation at all. What's worse, it was crowdfunded through a Website/{{Kickstarter}} campaign that raised over $100,000 -- none of which, evidently, went towards the writing or animation budgets.

* '''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Singer Sam Singer]]''', called "the Creator/EdWood of animation" by Animation Magazine, whose syndicated cartoons were notoriously shoddy.
** '''''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goIkWjwTgMk Bucky and Pepito]]''''' is considered by animation buffs the worst of the lot and frequently cited as one of the worst cartoons ever made. Set against a bleak but beautifully-painted desert backdrop were the crudely-animated and thoroughly-unlikable title characters -- an Anglo kid in a cowboy costume and his [[EthnicScrappy lazy Mexican sidekick]]. The plots often involved annoying animal pests and a tedious procession of contrived visual gags.
** '''''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfPaddyThePelican''''', which barely counts as a cartoon because it's really just a series of ''pencil tests'' that were submitted as finished cartoons. The artwork is generally decent... and that's about all that can be said for them. The picture is often blurry, each shot comprises of one or two seconds of animation looped back and forth, and there is no background. On some occasions, there’s even a blank black screen where there should be a picture. Perhaps even worse is the voice acting, all done by Singer himself in a single take with no script. The finished product [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfvhnUU5lKA sounds (appropriately) like an insane man talking to himself for eight minutes.]] WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter reviewed one of its episodes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0w6LUhl97s here]], where he calls it the worst cartoon of all time (in terms of production values). Two episodes are included in this [[http://www.rembrandtfilms.com/worst-cartoons-ever.htm DVD collection of the worst cartoons ever made]].

* '''''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfKidDanger''''', Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}'s AnimatedAdaptation of ''Series/HenryDanger''. The original is considered a divisive show but still has a following; the adaptation is widely regarded as one of the worst Franchise/{{Nicktoons}} of all time. While the animated version gets rid of the laugh track, it introduces a whole slew of problems in its place: The animation and character designs are completely dull and have been compared to the likes of late-run episodes of ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyTest''. The storylines are very lackluster, which is pretty bad considering that the cartoon could've opened up a huge opportunity for storylines that couldn't be done in its live-action counterpart and full of unfunny or nonsensical jokes, dated references that are about as relevant as expired milk, the lead characters going from dull and annoying at their very worst to outright unbearable, and tons of gross-out humor that isn't charming in the slightest. Newcomers and fans of ''Henry Danger'' disliked it and avoided the show, leading to low ratings that led to the show [[ScrewedByTheNetwork getting quietly removed from Nick's schedule]], with few missing it. Coupled with the fact that Creator/DanSchneider left Nickelodeon, the failure of this show [[FranchiseKiller led to the death of his namesake Schneider's Bakery line of sitcoms]]. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter reviewed the show [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=H1OC6TftZM4 here]] as a separate Animated Atrocity and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sly1XA3N5cM here]] as part of his Nick-o-Rama marathon, and he found nothing positive to say about the show. Not only that, but he also almost considered it for its own spot in his worst cartoons of the 2010's list [[https://youtu.be/NoSXRRdVK6M?t=1267 before giving it a dishonorable mention]] that could also be a tie with ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls2016'' at #4. Alpha Jay Show [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gWGIpANCJU has reviewed the show's pilot]] and similarly has no praise for it.

* '''''The Big World of Little Adam''''' is a standout among awful "educational" TV cartoons from the late '50s and early '60s that were made in a panic after the Sputnik launch in 1957, when the U.S. government pushed for such programs in an effort to raise children's intellects. This one barely qualified as a cartoon -- it was nothing but a still shot of two kids' heads behind a book, conveniently covering their mouths to avoid animating speech, the only movement being their pupils darting back and forth. This "action" framed montages of still pictures of the subject at hand. On a whole other level of awful, one installment dealing with missiles praised the V-1 and V-2 rockets. However, the animated segments and slideshows weren't the only thing present: Website/TheOtherWiki claims the producer, Fred Ladd[[note]]best known for bringing ''Anime/AstroBoy'', ''Anime/{{Gigantor}}'', and ''Anime/KimbaTheWhiteLion'' to America, and thus starting the first wave of anime in the English-speaking world[[/note]] got hold of a bunch of NASA documentaries, and with the space race of the '50s and '60s running about in kids' minds, created the segments as framing devices for said documentaries.

* '''''WesternAnimation/BoysOfValor''''', a standout of low-quality Christian kids' entertainment (no mean feat for a genre near-universally dismissed outside ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales''). The voice acting is atrocious -- one of the actors ''literally'' phones in his performance. The CGI is even worse: a generic grass texture is used for the ground in ''{{Hell}}'', the villains look like huge-headed ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}'' rejects, at least two scenes have one of the boys flying in a loop and colliding with the ground, remaining rock-still while doing so, and some of the models even seem to be directly stolen from ''VideoGame/TheSims1'' and ''VideoGame/{{Halo}}''. To top it all off, the BigBad is defeated by dancing, something [[LampshadeHanging even the bad guy is incredulous about]]. Watch iRawss tear it apart [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGnQv7jdkkQ here.]] He also reviewed the sequel along with the [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/SWRkGzavPgRfk/featured Critic Core]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1H83Q0gBV4 here.]]
* '''''WesternAnimation/{{Bubsy}}''''', Calico Entertainment's AnimatedAdaptation of the ''VideoGame/{{Bubsy}}'' video game series. No one picked up the pilot, for more than a few reasons: the jokes are unfunny, StockFootage is rampant, and almost all of our main [[DesignatedHero "heroes"]] are completely unlikeable and have voice acting that not only wastes the talent of famous names like Creator/RobPaulsen, [[Creator/JimCummings1952 Jim Cummings]], and Creator/TressMacNeille but also ''incredibly ear-grating''. The only likable character is Arnold Armadillo, and he is sadly treated to a downright mean-spirited RunningGag involving his fear of getting run over by a truck. It was so bad that even the creator of Bubsy, Michael Berlyn, hated it, and the title character is one of the ''very'' few roles Rob Paulsen is openly ashamed of. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter took an axe to it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF7W1ZjjBjI here]], as well as [[http://codenamereview.blogspot.com/2012/10/bubsy.html Tooncrap]], [[http://cartoon-watching.blogspot.com/2012/03/bubsy-animated-series-pilot.html Nothing but Cartoons]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCy5ezK36hw Cartoon Palooza]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXXWmbMH0l8 even Joel]] from WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}}. There's also [[TheAnnotatedEdition an annotated version]] as well. And just in case you weren't convinced enough, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmNdbdSCuC4 here's the entire thing]]. "[[CatchPhrase What could possibly go wrong?]]", indeed.

* '''''Mauser y Pirulo''''', a short-lived but disastrous animated series that graced UsefulNotes/{{Venezuela}}n screens for less than a season in 1999. It was promoted as "the very first Venezuelan animated series", but in fact, it was a SameLanguageDub of the Colombian animated show ''El Siguiente Programa'' ("The Following Program"), a vehicle for the duo of comedians/radio jocks Martín de Francisco and Santiago Moure. The original footage wasn't well-animated, but it was saved by witty writing and the voice acting of its main stars. In the Venezuelan "translation", however, the main characters were renamed and transformed into ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHead'' {{exp|y}}ies, and the topical Colombian cultural references were awkwardly changed to Venezuelan ones, among other changes (most incongruently the addition of mild profanity, which is weird because Venezuelan {{Media Watchdog}}s are usually stricter on it than their Colombian counterparts). The result was a show that had to be [[{{Watershed}} stuck at the midnight timeslot]], where it quickly died. What few fans they had [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes never managed to tape it]], so while the original show received DVD releases and episodes can be freely found online, the only proof that ''Mauser y Pirulo'' even ''existed'' is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F7EkNnLHUQ the theme music]], which some say is the best part of the show.

* '''''My Little Pony: Newborn Cuties'''''[[note]]referred to in the title card as ''Once Upon a My Little Pony Time''[[/note]] was a Flash-animated adaptation of ''Franchise/MyLittlePony'' and was the last series of the [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyG3 third generation]] of the franchise, and for good reasons. While the G3 specials and movies aren't the epitome of children's entertainment, the animation is fairly competent, the songs are pretty catchy, professional voice actors give the characters likable personalities, and it isn't above poking fun at its ditzy characters. By contrast, with ''Newborn Cuties'' Creator/{{Hasbro}} put in as little effort as possible to maximize their profits, which ''really'' shows: all the voices were provided by clearly untrained children,[[note]]while there are professional voice actors credited, the credits were ''straight-up reused'' from another G3 project, ''Pinkie Pie's Special Day'', indicating an intentional distancing for the people involved[[/note]] and all sound almost exactly the same, stock sound effects are used ''constantly'', the Flash animation is minimalistic at best, and there are moments where voices come out with no indication of who's saying the lines (to the point that not a single character's mouth ''moves'' in the second short, although there is another version of it that fixes this problem), the characters' movements coupled with their '''ugly''' models make them look [[UnintentionalUncannyValley bizarrely wrong]], plotlines were blatantly recycled from earlier G3 specials, and the reoccurring cast of quirky characters that its fans had grown attached to were completely thrown out to market the same handful of characters and toys. In addition, the writing's completely juvenile, insulting, and contains the [[invoked]][[UnfortunateImplications unintentionally racist]] line, "[[FantasticRacism everyone in Ponyville knows unicorns belong in Unicornia]]." Is it any wonder that it was discontinued two shorts in and replaced with ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''? Watch [[WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter Mr. Enter]] tear apart the second short, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgT4TonYAt4 "Over Two Rainbows"]] which is ''worse'' than the already abysmal first short, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICSUXsnuwAs "So Many Different Ways to Play"]]. WebVideo/PhantomStrider put it as #4 on his [[https://youtu.be/Fso1g_TwnWI Top 5 Worst Forgotten Girls Cartoons]]. [=TheCrimsonMayhem=], who edited some of Enter's reviews, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s63_tzCkOMc reviews it himself]].

* '''''WebAnimation/TheRedApeFamily''''' is an animated series based on (and starring) Bored Ape Yacht Club [[UsefulNotes/{{Bitcoin}} [=NFTs=]]], and itself being hosted on a blockchain, with each episode being sold as an NFT. Claiming to be the first of its kind,[[note]]which isn't true -- four months prior, ''Stoner Cats'', produced by Creator/MilaKunis's Orchard Farm Productions, was launched[[/note]] the show ostensibly centers around a family of Bored Apes [[ApesInSpace leaving Earth to live a new life on Mars]]. The animation looks pretty awkward sometimes; one early scene [[https://twitter.com/saberspark/status/1465020013929275406?s=21 has a glaring typo]], proving how sloppily it was put together; the story is not clearly explained to the viewer, with the only real explanation being in the trailer; and the jokes either [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext make no sense]], are [[UnintentionalPeriodPiece dated]], or are blatant attempts to preach to a choir of cryptocurrency speculators. Its only interest, even to its target audience, is that [[MoneyDearBoy it is technically a form of currency]]. Saberspark [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxiI0vJPgUw took a look at it here]] and concluded that it was a blatant and soulless cash grab, to the point of including it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDrppEZm6Gw in his rant video against NFTs as a whole]] and later returning to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZTdh-sKd5s dance on the show's grave]] when its [[ShortRunners budget ran out during production of the fourth episode]]. It was also reviewed by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cya0KVPyBR4 Sankobyte]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIlrmWEuIFA Prixet]], who were equally unkind in their treatment of it.
* '''''WesternAnimation/SantaInc''''', an "edgy" Christmas-themed AnimatedShockComedy miniseries by Creator/HBOMax, which despite boasting well-known comedians like Creator/SarahSilverman and Creator/SethRogen was reviled for trying way too hard. The show is full of horribly tasteless jokes and crude humor that rely too much on extreme vulgarity, sex, and nudity. Its BreakingTheGlassCeiling premise of a female elf named Candy trying to prove herself as a successor to Santa Claus is [[{{Anvilicious}} constantly hammered in]]. The main characters and supporting characters are either very huge {{Jerkass}}es or [[FlatCharacter one-note]], while the villains are all predictably sexist or corrupt. The show offers a HopeSpot in one of the final episodes, where Santa gives a sensible reason for not choosing Candy as his successor[[note]]while she is certainly a great worker in his eyes, she is simply not good with kids, which his chosen successor, the intern named Devin, is; and, as he explains, being a FriendToAllChildren is ''the'' most important part of the job[[/note]] and offers a compromise, wherein Candy gets all the executive power in the company, while Devin acts as its public face, which [[InformedWrongness she completely rejects with a "Go fuck yourself,"]] cementing the cast as irredeemable in the eyes of Steve Reviews, Just Stop, and other critics. As such, the show proved to be incredibly mean-spirited, offensive, and [[EightDeadlyWords lacked anybody worth caring about in the end]]. To the show's credit, the series has incredible StopMotion animation, meant to pay tribute to the [[Creator/RankinBass Rankin/Bass]] Christmas specials... not that it's enough to save the show's awful writing. It has an [=IMDb=] rating of 1.6, which the star talent blamed entirely on antisemitism.[[note]]While there was backlash from Neo-Nazis due to the show's left-wing politics, outlets of ''all'' political affiliations agreed that [[DontShootTheMessage the show wasn't good on its other merits either]].[[/note]] [[https://youtu.be/dbSPVsNAYhM Steve Reviews]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fG-AiCN38aY Just Stop]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7hMjIfHw1U Cynical Reviews]] had very few kind words to say about the show. It was also given a negative review in [[https://variety.com/2021/tv/reviews/santa-inc-seth-rogen-sarah-silverman-hbo-max-tv-review-1235123061/ Variety]]. And while it was included among the shows purged from the service in the summer of 2022, this was not one of the shows that viewers were disappointed to see leave.
* '''''Slippin' Jimmy''''', an animated miniseries prequel to ''Series/BetterCallSaul'', released by AMC during the latter's final season and depicting the childhood of protagonist Jimmy [=McGill=]. From the moment it was announced, fan reception had been universally negative. Many people had initially thought that the show's [[https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BZWE0MDMyZTYtODIxZC00ZjEyLTliYzUtMjRhMzIxNjRlZDBlXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTI0NTk2MTk@._V1_.jpg promotional images]] were tongue-in-cheek pieces of fanart meant to parody the SpinoffBabies trope and were shocked to learn that it was actually a real show. The character designs are considered ugly and generic, with comparisons being drawn unfavorably to Website/GoAnimate despite being animated by former ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' animation studio Starburns Industries. Despite supposedly being a prequel to ''Better Call Saul'', it's a prequel InNameOnly: the series is tonally inconsistent with the gritty realism present in the rest of the ''Franchise/BreakingBad'' franchise, with episodes showing fart clouds transforming into frogs and the characters nearly getting dragged to Hell, scenarios that feel wholly out of place in the context of the main series, combined with the characters acting nothing like how they do in the actual TV show. Despite Jimmy earning the nickname "Slippin' Jimmy" by being a ConMan, Jimmy pulls off only a single con job over the course of the series. The animation itself isn't anything spectacular either: background props are identifiable as pieces of clipart, even sporting scattered white pixels around their edges on occasion, indicating that the animators hastily erased the white backgrounds around them without bothering to touch anything up; in one episode, the animation budget appears to have been exceeded, as the episode ends on an extended shot of the building exterior while the characters' voiceovers explain what is happening inside. While [=YouTube=] removed their dislike counter in 2022, an official upload of an episode of the series (now taken down) sits at only 1.1 thousand likes despite having over 95 thousand views, which indicates strong negative reception. The series holds a 2.6 rating on IMDB, and on any media related to this, comments sections are unanimously negative, with any praise being transparently ironic in a similar vein to the praise heaped onto the also negatively received ''[[Film/Morbius2022 Morbius]]'' film.
* '''''Film/{{Spaceballs}}: The Animated Series''''', an unfunny animated continuation of Creator/MelBrooks' prominent ''[[MayTheFarceBeWithYou Star Wars]]'' [[MayTheFarceBeWithYou parody]] ''Spaceballs''. Despite the involvement of Brooks himself (writing, producing, and reprising his roles as Yogurt and President Skroob), Creator/JoanRivers (Dot Matrix), Creator/DaphneZuniga (Princess Vespa), and Creator/DomDeLuise (Pizza the Hutt, in a rather undignified final performance before his passing), it just didn't hold up. The designs of the characters range from okay to awful, most notably changing Dark Helmet, originally played by 5'1" Creator/RickMoranis, to a dwarf. The joke may have been about Helmet's phallic appearance, but there was no reason to make him look like a bobblehead with or without the helmet. The animation doesn't fare any better. In an annoyingly lazy move, it rehashes jokes from the movie. In fact, the first two episodes are a loose remake of the movie as a two-parter. The rest of the series is a ShallowParody of other movies, such as ''Film/TheTerminator'', ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'', and non-Sci-Fi films like ''Film/HarryPotter''. That is not only comparable to a Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg movie, but it renders the title of the show and the movie it was based on redundant. Fans of the original movie remembered a gag in which Yogurt has a SequelSnark and refers to ''Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money'', giving them a ready-made unflattering nickname to use as a subtitle for this show. Watch WebVideo/{{Bobsheaux}} tear it apart [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_x9CRj4_lk here]]. [[WebVideo/InfamousAnimation ShogunGin0]] also shares [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3txtt7_spaceballs-the-animated-series-infamous-animation-ep-15_fun his thoughts on the matter]].

** '''''Webcomic/CtrlAltDel: The Animated Series''''' is regarded by many as one of the worst {{Animated Adaptation}}s of all time and easily the worst of the 2000s. Noted for its awful production, unlikable characterization, unfunny "humor," and a plot that continues upon a wildly-despised comic arc. The StockFootage is okay but takes up at least ''half'' an episode. Nothing else is even excusable. The voice acting is poorly done and cheaply recorded (one background character in Season 2 Episode 4 apparently had his single line ''literally'' phoned in), and volume discrepancies are everywhere. The sounds are so badly edited that entire music tracks commonly overlap, and speech starts and stops ''partway through a line''. The animation wouldn't pass on Website/{{Newgrounds}} -- it's often jerky, always unnatural, and rarely ''isn't'' in a 3/4 profile. The series itself was so unpopular that for two seasons done two years apart, it almost cost Blind Ferret their jobs, and they have since gone on record as saying they'll never produce another season. WebVideo/TVTrash riffed it in a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V9GoInPGpc crossover]] with The Cartoon Hero, and Rowdy C declared that it was one of the few shows that he felt had no redeeming qualities. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2uWWjXh3JU tore into the pilot, too]], and considers it to have the worst audio out of anything he's reviewed. It was also the first and [[BookEnds last]] thing riffed by WebVideo/TheAnnotatedSeries.
** The AnimatedAdaptation of '''''Webcomic/LeastICouldDo''''': The animation is ''slightly'' better than ''Ctrl+Alt+Del'', though almost anything would be; that's not enough to salvage the rest of the show. Essentially, it takes every flaw the {{webcomic}} has and multiplies it exponentially. The first lyric of the theme song is "Wouldn't it be great if no one ever got offended?" which should clue viewers in that what they're about to watch isn't exactly going to handle adult themes in a mature, responsible manner. In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3eZY2_Di1c the clip of the pilot posted on their YouTube channel]] alone, we're introduced to the main character Rayne Summers, who has to be the biggest, most intolerable douchebag imaginable. Couple this with bland, repetitive humor that can be best described as "horny" and a waste of good voice actors like Creator/YuriLowenthal, Creator/TaraPlatt, and Creator/SteveBlum, stir well, and you've got a cartoon so bad it's a wonder anyone ever bothers adapting webcomics into animation at all. What's worse, it was crowdfunded through a Website/{{Kickstarter}} campaign that raised over $100,000 -- none of which, evidently, went towards the writing or animation budgets.
* '''Creator/JohnKricfalusi''''s fall from grace hit hard. In UsefulNotes/TheNineties, he was one of the biggest names in animation. But in UsefulNotes/TheNewTens, a pair of {{Creator Killer}}s (among other things, capped off with a series of sexual assault allegations) knocked him pretty much out of business entirely. Both of those cartoons were Horrible, even though he was given total creative control; they perfectly encapsulate how ProtectionFromEditors is [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools not always a good thing]] and how [[FranchiseOriginalSin the very qualities that put his work on the map can be taken too far]]:

** '''''WesternAnimation/CansWithoutLabels''''' is an animated film that was intended to be John K's masterpiece. Instead, it completely torpedoed what was left of his career (well, that and [[OvershadowedByControversy several sexual assault allegations]] that were revealed in 2018). The film was stuck in DevelopmentHell for seven years and crowdfunded on Website/{{Kickstarter}}, suggesting it was [[DoingItForTheArt a labor of love]] -- but it turned out to betray almost everything Kricfalusi preached as an animator. Rather than use his trademark DerangedAnimation to advance a story, he pushed it to wild extremes to cover for the paper-thin plot. His notorious perfectionism bore no results; the editing is a mess on all fronts, from the production to the acting to the sound, with one piece of background music noticeably and jarringly ending abruptly. The animation similarly looks incredibly cheap; the camera refuses to stop zooming and panning, and the backgrounds are inconsistent between scenes. He even [[TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects uses CG]] -- and [[SpecialEffectFailure jarring, ugly CG]] -- despite having long decried using CG in 2D animation.[[note]]Even worse, the CG models in the short are actually assets which are supposed to be ''traced''. This means that John K essentially used stock assets in what was supposed to be a notorious perfectionist's magnum opus.[[/note]] And the main conflict is resolved using a mean-spirited [[Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg Seltzerberg]]-esque parody of WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck, presumably as a TakeThat to Creator/{{Disney}}. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter elaborates on the short itself [[https://youtu.be/HCbgXDQoMF4 here]], Daniel Ibbertson goes into detail on what happened with its Website/{{Kickstarter}} situation [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH54JGZjzRI here]], and [=TheGrandMac=] discusses the short [[https://youtu.be/ydzNPLo_H14 here]], as well as the animatic for a [[WhatCouldHaveBeen planned]] ''Ren & Stimpy'' short to accompany [[WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobMovieSpongeOutOfWater the second SpongeBob movie]].

* '''''WesternAnimation/BoysOfValor''''', a standout of low-quality Christian kids' entertainment (no mean feat for a genre pretty much universally dismissed outside ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales''). The voice acting is atrocious -- one of the actors ''literally'' phones in his performance. The CGI is even worse: a generic grass texture is used for the ground in ''{{Hell}}'', the villains look like huge-headed ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}'' rejects, at least two scenes have one of the boys flying in a loop and colliding with the ground, remaining rock-still while doing so, and some of the models even seem to be directly stolen from ''VideoGame/TheSims1'' and ''VideoGame/{{Halo}}''.

* '''''WesternAnimation/{{Fairview}}''''' is Comedy Central's attempt to create a SpiritualSuccessor to ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' (and even used ''South Park'' as a lead-in to attract viewers) and is also part of a new adult animation push into streaming services, yet it ended up being one of the most reviled attempts at an AnimatedShockComedy in recent years. It fails at political commentary as its "satire" ends up being far too [[ShallowParody shallow]] and [[{{Anvilicious}} unsubtle]] to hold any water (such as [[TakeThat potshots]] towards anti-vaxxers that amount to them literally saying that they're against vaccines because they're stupid). The show’s non-political humor isn’t much better, mostly consisting of tired ToiletHumour, shock and gross-out humor, and sex jokes, all delivered with very little actual humor or cleverness. The character designs resemble creepy-looking nesting dolls with overly-detailed, ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}''-style human faces that horribly clash with the simplistic bodies and look more like emojis than actual characters. The characters themselves are [[FlatCharacter flat]] and receive no development. What's more, the voice acting was literally phoned in over '''Zoom''', making it unprofessional and jarring to the point that WebVideo/{{Saberspark}} reported that he recoiled in pain while watching the series. It received enormously negative reviews by getting a 1.4 on [=IMDb=], making the series the lowest-rated Comedy Central cartoon ever.
* '''''Fantasy Island''''' (not to be confused with [[Series/FantasyIsland the TV series]] or [[Film/FantasyIsland2020 the movie]] of the same name) was a television series that followed up on an embarrassment to animation known as ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfTheTitanic'' and fellow Horrible entry ''WesternAnimation/{{Tentacolino}}'' and is just about as bad as you would expect from that description. The show has about as many continuity errors as ''Tentacolino'', including giving characters over-the-top Italian accents they didn't have in either of the films. Even aside from that, the script is ''insane'', including having sharks create a tidal wave so they can steal beach chairs, ghost pirates attempting to steal the Titanic, and [[ArtisticLicenseBiology a baby being born a week after its conception and aging to ten years old within a few days]], ''twice'', which ''no one questions'', among various other plot points that are abruptly dropped not long after being brought up. The art and animation are both very inconsistent as well; the new characters (including the aforementioned children) look like they came from a whole other universe than the returning characters, while the animation goes back and forth between traditional animation and OffModel, rubbery-looking Flash animation. Having only aired in Italy and North Korea, [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes the series was nearly impossible to find]] until it was uploaded on [=YouTube=] in 2019 on [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLN27akZUvwXAuPxfV7cVn3bcM9-ZRd-0G the production company's channel]]. As a result, it didn't have an [=IMDb=] for a good while, and it still doesn't have enough reviews to have a proper rating (though unsurprisingly, the few reviews it has are overwhelmingly 1-star). [=RaisorBlade=] reviews it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPCu7Vr2OXo here]]. Or watch WebVideo/{{Bobsheaux}} review it himself [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKwLyHAoS9I here]].

What few fans they had [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes never managed to tape it]], so while the original show received DVD releases and episodes can be freely found online, the only proof that ''Mauser y Pirulo'' even ''existed'' is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F7EkNnLHUQ the theme music]], arguably the best part of the show.

* '''''Slippin' Jimmy''''', an animated miniseries prequel to ''Series/BetterCallSaul'', released by AMC during the latter's final season and depicting the childhood of protagonist Jimmy [=McGill=]. From the moment it was announced, fan reception had been universally negative. Many people had initially thought that the show's [[https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BZWE0MDMyZTYtODIxZC00ZjEyLTliYzUtMjRhMzIxNjRlZDBlXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTI0NTk2MTk@._V1_.jpg promotional images]] were tongue-in-cheek pieces of fanart meant to parody the SpinoffBabies trope and were shocked to learn that it was actually a real show. The character designs are considered ugly and generic, with comparisons being drawn unfavorably to Website/GoAnimate despite being animated by former ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' animation studio Starburns Industries. Despite supposedly being a prequel to ''Better Call Saul'', it's a prequel InNameOnly: the series is tonally inconsistent with the gritty realism present in the rest of the ''Franchise/BreakingBad'' franchise, with episodes showing fart clouds transforming into frogs and the characters nearly getting dragged to Hell, scenarios that feel wholly out of place in the context of the main series, combined with the characters acting nothing like how they do in the actual TV show. Despite Jimmy earning the nickname "Slippin' Jimmy" by being a ConMan, Jimmy pulls off only a single con job over the entire course of the series. The animation itself isn't anything spectacular either: background props are identifiable as pieces of clipart, even sporting scattered white pixels around their edges on occasion, indicating that the animators hastily erased the white backgrounds around them without bothering to touch anything up; in one episode, the animation budget appears to have been exceeded, as the episode ends on an extended shot of the building exterior while the characters' voiceovers explain what is happening inside. While [=YouTube=] removed their dislike counter in 2022, an official upload of an episode of the series (now taken down) sits at only 1.1 thousand likes despite having over 95 thousand views, which indicates strong negative reception. The series holds a 2.6 rating on IMDB, and on any media related to this, comments sections are unanimously negative, with any praise being transparently ironic in a similar vein to the praise heaped onto the also negatively received ''[[Film/Morbius2022 Morbius]]'' film.
* '''''Film/{{Spaceballs}}: The Animated Series''''', an unfunny animated continuation of Creator/MelBrooks' prominent ''[[MayTheFarceBeWithYou Star Wars]]'' [[MayTheFarceBeWithYou parody]] ''Spaceballs''. Despite the involvement of Brooks himself (writing, producing, and reprising his roles as Yogurt and President Skroob), Creator/JoanRivers (Dot Matrix), Creator/DaphneZuniga (Princess Vespa), and Creator/DomDeLuise (Pizza the Hutt, in a rather undignified final performance before his passing), it just didn't hold up. The designs of the characters range from okay to awful, most notably changing Dark Helmet, originally played by 5'1" Creator/RickMoranis, to a dwarf. The joke may have been about Helmet's phallic appearance, but there was no reason to make him look like a bobblehead with or without the helmet. The animation doesn't fare any better. In an annoyingly lazy move, it rehashes jokes from the movie. In fact, the first two episodes are basically a remake of the movie as a two-parter. The rest of the series is a ShallowParody of other movies, such as ''Film/TheTerminator'', ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'', and even non-Sci-Fi films like ''Film/HarryPotter''. That is not only comparable to a Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg movie, but it renders the title of the show and the movie it was based on redundant. Fans of the original movie remembered a gag in which Yogurt has a SequelSnark and refers to ''Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money'', giving them a ready-made unflattering nickname to use as a subtitle for this show.

* '''''WebAnimation/TheTransformersCombinerWars''''', a 2016 web series co-produced by {{Machinima}} and Creator/{{Hasbro}}. Initially billed as a more mature work for hardcore fans, said hardcore fans almost instantly savaged it due to poor-quality CGI reminiscent of ''Anime/TransformersEnergon'', a low framerate that makes actions highly janky, an unclear and barebones narrative, a large amount of {{Padding}} despite the full miniseries only clocking in at 40 minutes, little screentime devoted to the characters the series was created to advertise, terrible characterization (with [[NiceGirl Windblade]] being depicted as a murderous psychopath for no apparent reason, and Starscream being depicted as humbled by having a position of leadership, only to reveal it was all an act in the final episodes for no reason) and, most infamously, the fact that the web series was released well after the toyline it was made to promote had left retail. When Website/TFWikiDotNet says ''Energon'' [[https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers:_Combiner_Wars_(cartoon) looks good by comparison]], you know something has gone horribly, horribly wrong. Amazingly enough, it still managed to get '''two''' sequels. And the worst part? They somehow got '''[[WebVideo/DashieXP Dashie]]''' and '''[[WebVideo/HonestTrailers Jon Bailey]]''', of all people, to work on it (they were the voice of Menasor and ''freaking Optimus Prime'', respectively), and not even ''they'' can save this trainwreck. At least the two follow-up series, ''Titans Return'' and ''Power of the Primes'', were improvements thanks to longer episodes, better animation, more consistent characterizations, and an all-star cast.

** They also worked on an AnimatedAdaptation of '''''Webcomic/LeastICouldDo'''''. The animation is ''slightly'' better than ''Ctrl+Alt+Del'', though almost anything would be; that's not enough to salvage the rest of the show. Essentially, it takes every flaw the {{webcomic}} has and multiplies it exponentially. The first lyric of the theme song is "Wouldn't it be great if no one ever got offended?" which should clue viewers in that what they're about to watch isn't exactly going to handle adult themes in a mature, responsible manner. In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3eZY2_Di1c the clip of the pilot posted on their YouTube channel]] alone, we're introduced to the main character Rayne Summers, who has to be the biggest, most intolerable douchebag imaginable. Couple this with bland, repetitive humor that can be best described as "horny" and a waste of good voice actors like Creator/YuriLowenthal, Creator/TaraPlatt, and Creator/SteveBlum, stir well, and you've got a cartoon so bad it's a wonder anyone ever bothers adapting webcomics into animation at all. What's worse, it was crowdfunded through a Website/{{Kickstarter}} campaign that raised over $100,000 -- none of which, evidently, went towards the writing or animation budgets.

* Many of the syndicated cartoons produced by '''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Singer Sam Singer]]''' (called "the Ed Wood of animation" by Animation Magazine) were notoriously shoddy.
** Most animation buffs consider '''''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goIkWjwTgMk Bucky and Pepito]]''''' the worst of the lot and frequently cite it as one of the worst cartoons ever made. Set against a bleak but beautifully-painted desert backdrop were the crudely-animated and thoroughly-unlikable title characters - an Anglo kid in a cowboy costume and his [[EthnicScrappy lazy Mexican sidekick]]. The plots often involved annoying animal pests and a tedious procession of contrived visual gags.
** A [[http://www.rembrandtfilms.com/worst-cartoons-ever.htm DVD collection of the worst cartoons ever made]] features not only two episodes of ''Bucky and Pepito'' but also two episodes of another of Singer's cartoons, '''''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfPaddyThePelican'''''. Paddy's cartoons are especially lousy because they are '''pencil tests''' that were submitted as finished cartoons. The artwork is generally decent... and that's about all that can be said for them. The picture is often blurry, each shot comprises of one or two seconds of animation looped back and forth, and there is no background. On some occasions, there’s even a blank black screen where there should be a picture. Perhaps even worse is the voice acting, all done by Singer himself in a single take with no script. The finished product [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfvhnUU5lKA sounds (appropriately) like an insane man talking to himself for eight minutes.]] WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter reviewed one of its episodes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0w6LUhl97s here]], where he calls it the worst cartoon of all time (in terms of production values).

* While ''Series/HenryDanger'' is considered a divisive show, it still has a following. The same cannot be said for its AnimatedAdaptation, '''''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfKidDanger''''', which is widely regarded as one of Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}[='s=] worst original animated programs[[note]]also known as the Franchise/{{Nicktoons}}[[/note]]. While the animated version gets rid of the laugh track, it introduces a whole slew of problems in its place: The animation and character designs are completely dull and have been compared to the likes of late-run episodes of ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyTest''. The storylines are very lackluster, which is pretty bad considering that the cartoon could've opened up a huge opportunity for storylines that couldn't be done in its live-action counterpart and full of unfunny and/or nonsensical jokes, dated references that are about as relevant as expired milk, the lead characters going from dull and annoying at their very worst to outright unbearable, and tons of gross-out humor that isn't charming in the slightest. Newcomers and fans of ''Henry Danger'' disliked it and avoided the show, leading to low ratings that led to the show [[ScrewedByTheNetwork getting quietly removed from Nick's schedule]], with few missing it. Coupled with the fact that Creator/DanSchneider left Nickelodeon, the failure of this show [[FranchiseKiller led to the death of his namesake Schneider's Bakery line of sitcoms]]. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter reviewed the show [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=H1OC6TftZM4 here]] as a separate Animated Atrocity and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sly1XA3N5cM here]] as part of his Nick-o-Rama marathon, and he found nothing positive to say about the show. Not only that, but he also almost considered it for its own spot in his worst cartoons of the 2010's list [[https://youtu.be/NoSXRRdVK6M?t=1267 before giving it a dishonorable mention]] that could also be a tie with ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls2016'' at #4. Alpha Jay Show [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gWGIpANCJU has reviewed the show's pilot]] and similarly has no praise for it.

* After the Sputnik launch in 1957, there seemed to be a push for "educational" TV cartoons in the USA to raise kids' intellects, and they were generally awful for the time. One of them, '''''The Big World of Little Adam''''', was nothing but a still shot of two kids' heads behind a book, conveniently covering their mouths to avoid animating speech -- the only movement was their pupils darting back and forth. This "action" framed montages of still pictures of the subject at hand. On a whole other level of awful, one installment dealing with missiles praised the V-1 and V-2 rockets. However, the animated segments and slideshows weren't the only thing present: Website/TheOtherWiki claims the producer, Fred Ladd, who is best known for bringing ''Anime/AstroBoy'', ''Anime/{{Gigantor}}'', and ''Anime/KimbaTheWhiteLion'' to America, and thus started the first wave of anime in the English-speaking world, got hold of a bunch of NASA documentaries, and with the space race of the 50s and 60s running about in kids' minds, created the segments as framing devices for said documentaries.

* Christian kids' entertainment is notorious for generally being low-quality with [[WesternAnimation/VeggieTales some exceptions]], but '''''WesternAnimation/BoysOfValor''''' takes it to a whole new level. The voice acting is atrocious--one of the actors ''literally'' phones in his performance--and the CGI is even worse: a generic grass texture is used for the ground in ''{{Hell}}'', the villains look like huge-headed ''Toys/{{Bionicle}}'' rejects, at least two scenes have one of the boys flying in a loop and colliding with the ground, remaining rock-still while doing so, and some of the models even seem to be directly stolen from ''VideoGame/TheSims1'' and ''VideoGame/{{Halo}}''. To top it all off, the BigBad is defeated by dancing, something [[LampshadeHanging even the bad guy is incredulous about]]. Watch iRawss tear it apart [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGnQv7jdkkQ here.]] He also reviewed the sequel along with the [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/SWRkGzavPgRfk/featured Critic Core]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1H83Q0gBV4 here.]]
* There are more than a few reasons why Calico Entertainment's '''''WesternAnimation/{{Bubsy}}''''' pilot never got picked up. Not only because of unfunny jokes and overuse of StockFootage, almost all of our main [[DesignatedHero "heroes"]] are completely unlikeable and have voice acting that not only wastes the talent of famous names like Creator/RobPaulsen, [[Creator/JimCummings1952 Jim Cummings]], and Creator/TressMacNeille but also ''incredibly ear-grating''. The only likable character is Arnold Armadillo, and he is sadly treated to a downright mean-spirited RunningGag involving his fear of getting run over by a truck. It was so bad that even the creator of Bubsy, Michael Berlyn, hated it, and the title character is one of the ''very'' few roles Rob Paulsen is openly ashamed of. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter took an axe to it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF7W1ZjjBjI here]], as well as [[http://codenamereview.blogspot.com/2012/10/bubsy.html Tooncrap]], [[http://cartoon-watching.blogspot.com/2012/03/bubsy-animated-series-pilot.html Nothing but Cartoons]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCy5ezK36hw Cartoon Palooza]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXXWmbMH0l8 even Joel]] from WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}}. There's also [[TheAnnotatedEdition an annotated version]] as well. And just in case you weren't convinced enough, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmNdbdSCuC4 here's the entire thing]]. "[[CatchPhrase What could possibly go wrong?]]", indeed.

* '''''WesternAnimation/{{Hammerman}}''''', a cartoon about rapper Music/MCHammer, is one of the most embarrassing examples of a [[CelebrityToons cartoon starring a celebrity]]. It ran for one season, and it's pretty clear from the start that most of its budget went into getting Hammer himself rather than ''anything else''. For starters, the animation is awful, with a lousy attempt at achieving graffiti-like aesthetics and movement so limited that it could accurately be described as "two-frame animation with the least detail put in each frame, sometimes mirrored or flipped", and the lack of sound effects was compensated with the animation of {{unsound effect}}s. The animation is not the only problem: the theme song is a generic hip-hop loop with MC Hammer singing a hastily-written ExpositoryThemeTune that doesn't feel like a song at all. Not only does each episode [[JustForPun hammer]] [[{{Anvilicious}} a lesson into the viewers' heads]], sometimes [[SpaceWhaleAesop in the most nonsensical and backwards way possible]], but Hammer explains both the Aesop ''and the whole plot'' at the beginning of each episode. Top it with idiotic characters and boring villains, and you get an awkward piece of animated crap that made both [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5tV3PyC-Bk Mr. Enter]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQiwzhTNmtc The Nostalgia Critic]] cringe. Even WebVideo/TheRapCritic mentioned how genuinely awful ''Hammerman'' was when talking about the song that actually ruined MC Hammer's career [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6_BkVXGXdU (Pumps and a Bump).]]

* The disaster that was '''''Mauser y Pirulo''''', a short-lived animated series that graced UsefulNotes/{{Venezuela}}n screens for less than a season in 1999. It was promoted as "the very first Venezuelan animated series," but in fact, it was a SameLanguageDub of the Colombian animated show ''El Siguiente Programa'',[[note]]Spanish for The Following Program[[/note]] a vehicle for the duo of comedians/radio jocks Martín De Francisco and Santiago Moure. The original footage wasn't well-animated, but it was saved by witty writing and the voice acting of its main stars. In the Venezuelan "translation," however, the main characters were renamed and transformed into ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHead'' {{exp|y}}ies, and the topical Colombian cultural references were awkwardly changed to Venezuelan ones, among other changes.[[note]]The most incongruent of those was adding extra (mild) profanity because Venezuelan {{Media Watchdog}}s are more strict on it than Colombian ones)[[/note]] The result was a show that had to be [[{{Watershed}} stuck at the Midnight timeslot]], where it quickly died. What few fans they had [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes never managed to tape it]], so while the original show received DVD releases and episodes can be freely found online, the only proof that ''Mauser y Pirulo'' even ''existed'' is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F7EkNnLHUQ the theme music]], arguably the best part of the show.

* '''''My Little Pony: Newborn Cuties'''''[[note]]referred to in the title card as ''Once Upon a My Little Pony Time''[[/note]]was a Flash-animated adaptation of ''Franchise/MyLittlePony'' and was the last series of the [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyG3 third generation]] of the franchise, and for good reasons. While the G3 specials and movies aren't the epitome of children's entertainment, the animation is fairly competent, the songs are pretty catchy, professional voice actors give the characters likable personalities, and it isn't above poking fun at its ditzy characters. By contrast, with ''Newborn Cuties'' Creator/{{Hasbro}} put in as little effort as possible to maximize their profits, which ''really'' shows: all the voices were provided by clearly untrained children,[[note]]While there are professional voice actors credited, the credits were ''straight-up reused'' from another G3 project, ''Pinkie Pie's Special Day'', indicating an intentional distancing for the people involved.[[/note]]and all sound almost exactly the same, stock sound effects are used ''constantly'', the Flash animation is minimalistic at best, and there are moments where voices come out with no indication of who's saying the lines (to the point that not a single character's mouth ''moves'' in the second short, although there is another version of it that fixes this problem), the characters' movements coupled with their '''ugly''' models make them look [[UnintentionalUncannyValley bizarrely wrong]], plotlines were blatantly recycled from earlier G3 specials, and the reoccurring cast of quirky characters that its fans had grown attached to were completely thrown out to market the same handful of characters and toys. In addition, the writing's completely juvenile, insulting, and contains the [[invoked]][[UnfortunateImplications unintentionally racist]] line, "[[FantasticRacism everyone in Ponyville knows unicorns belong in Unicornia]]." Is it any wonder that it was discontinued two shorts in and replaced with ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''? Watch [[WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter Mr. Enter]] tear apart the second short, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgT4TonYAt4 "Over Two Rainbows"]] which is ''worse'' than the already abysmal first short, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICSUXsnuwAs "So Many Different Ways to Play"]]. WebVideo/PhantomStrider put it as #4 on his [[https://youtu.be/Fso1g_TwnWI Top 5 Worst Forgotten Girls Cartoons]]. [=TheCrimsonMayhem=], who edited some of Enter's reviews, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s63_tzCkOMc reviews it himself]].

* '''''WebAnimation/TheRedApeFamily''''' is an animated series based on (and starring) Bored Ape Yacht Club [[UsefulNotes/{{Bitcoin}} [=NFTs=]]], and itself being hosted on a blockchain, with each episode being sold as an NFT. Claiming to be the first of its kind,[[note]]Which isn't true. Four months prior, ''Stoner Cats'', produced by Creator/MilaKunis's Orchard Farm Productions, was launched.[[/note]] the show ostensibly centers around a family of Bored Apes [[ApesInSpace leaving Earth to live a new life on Mars]]. The animation looks pretty awkward sometimes; one early scene [[https://twitter.com/saberspark/status/1465020013929275406?s=21 has a glaring typo]], proving how sloppily it was put together; the story is not clearly explained to the viewer, with the only real explanation being in the trailer; and the jokes either [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext make no sense]], are [[UnintentionalPeriodPiece dated]], or are blatant attempts to preach to a choir of cryptocurrency speculators. Its only interest, even to its target audience, is that [[MoneyDearBoy it is technically a form of currency]]. Saberspark [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxiI0vJPgUw took a look at it here]] and concluded that it was a blatant and soulless cash grab, to the point of including it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDrppEZm6Gw in his rant video against NFTs as a whole]] and later returning to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZTdh-sKd5s dance on the show's grave]] when its [[ShortRunners budget ran out during production of the fourth episode]]. It was also reviewed by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cya0KVPyBR4 Sankobyte]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIlrmWEuIFA Prixet]], who were equally unkind in their treatment of it.
* Despite having well-known comedians like Creator/SarahSilverman and Creator/SethRogen, Creator/HBOMax's Christmas-themed miniseries '''''WesternAnimation/SantaInc''''' was reviled for trying way too hard to make an "edgy" Christmas AnimatedShockComedy. The show is full of horribly tasteless jokes and crude humor that rely too much on extreme vulgarity, sex, and/or nudity. Its BreakingTheGlassCeiling premise of a female elf named Candy trying to prove herself as a successor to Santa Claus is [[{{Anvilicious}} constantly hammered in]]. The main characters and supporting characters are either very huge {{Jerkass}}es and/or [[FlatCharacter one-note]], while the villains are all predictably sexist or corrupt. The show offers a HopeSpot in one of the final episodes, where Santa gives a sensible reason for not choosing Candy as his successor[[labelnote:*]](while she is certainly a great worker in his eyes, she is simply not good with kids, which his chosen successor, the intern named Devin, is; and, as he explains, being a FriendToAllChildren is ''the'' most important part of the job)[[/labelnote]] and offers a compromise, wherein Candy gets all the executive power in the company, while Devin acts as its public face, which [[InformedWrongness she completely rejects with a "Go fuck yourself.,"]] cementing the cast as irredeemable in the eyes of Steve Reviews, Just Stop, and other critics. As such, the show proved to be incredibly mean-spirited, offensive, and [[EightDeadlyWords lacked anybody worth caring about in the end]]. To the show's credit, the series has incredible StopMotion animation, meant to pay tribute to the [[Creator/RankinBass Rankin/Bass]] Christmas specials... not that it's enough to save the show's awful writing. It has an [=IMDb=] rating of 1.6, which the star talent blamed entirely on antisemitism.[[note]]While there was backlash from Neo-Nazis due to the show's left-wing politics, outlets of ''all'' political affiliations agreed that [[DontShootTheMessage the show wasn't good on its other merits either]][[/note]] [[https://youtu.be/dbSPVsNAYhM Steve Reviews]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fG-AiCN38aY Just Stop]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7hMjIfHw1U Cynical Reviews]] had very few kind words to say about the show. It was also given a negative review in [[https://variety.com/2021/tv/reviews/santa-inc-seth-rogen-sarah-silverman-hbo-max-tv-review-1235123061/ Variety]]. And while it was included among the shows purged from the service in the summer of 2022, this was not one of the shows that viewers were disappointed to see leave.
* During the final season of ''Series/BetterCallSaul'', AMC released '''''Slippin' Jimmy''''', an animated miniseries serving as a prequel and depicting the childhood of protagonist Jimmy [=McGill=]. From the moment it was announced, fan reception had been universally negative. Many people had initially thought that the show's [[https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BZWE0MDMyZTYtODIxZC00ZjEyLTliYzUtMjRhMzIxNjRlZDBlXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTI0NTk2MTk@._V1_.jpg promotional images]] were tongue-in-cheek pieces of fanart meant to parody the SpinoffBabies trope, and were shocked to learn that it was actually a real show. The character designs are considered ugly and generic, with comparisons being drawn unfavorably to Website/GoAnimate despite being animated by former ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' animation studio Starburns Industries. Despite supposedly being a prequel to ''Better Call Saul'', it's a prequel InNameOnly: the series is tonally inconsistent with the gritty realism present in the rest of the ''Franchise/BreakingBad'' franchise, with episodes showing fart clouds transforming into frogs and the characters nearly getting dragged to hell, scenarios that feel wholly out of place in the context of the main series, combined with the characters acting nothing like how they do in the actual TV show. Despite Jimmy earning the nickname "Slippin' Jimmy" by being a ConMan, Jimmy pulls off only a single con job over the entire course of the series. The animation itself isn't anything spectacular either: background props are identifiable as pieces of clipart, even sporting scattered white pixels around their edges on occasion, indicating that the animators hastily erased the white backgrounds around them without bothering to touch anything up; in one episode, the animation budget appears to have been exceeded, as the episode ends on an extended shot of the building exterior while the characters' voiceovers explain what is happening inside. While [=YouTube=] removed their dislike counter in 2022, an official upload of an episode of the series (now taken down) sits at only 1.1 thousand likes despite having over 95 thousand views, which indicates strong negative reception. The series holds a 2.6 rating on IMDB, and on any media related to this, comments sections are unanimously negative, with any praise being transparently ironic in a similar vein to the praise heaped onto the also negatively received ''[[Film/Morbius2022 Morbius]]'' film.
* Despite the involvement of director Creator/MelBrooks (who also reprised his roles as President Skroob and Yogurt, as well as also being involved in writing and producing), Creator/JoanRivers (Dot Matrix), Creator/DaphneZuniga (Princess Vespa), and Creator/DomDeLuise (Pizza the Hutt, in a rather undignified final performance before his passing), '''''Film/{{Spaceballs}}: The Animated Series''''' has been given the FanNickname ''Da Soich for More Money'' from fans of the original movie.[[note]]For those who haven't seen ''Spaceballs'', the nickname references a scene in which the movie's [[Franchise/StarWars Yoda]] equivalent, Yogurt, teases a sequel with that subtitle.[[/note]] The designs of the characters range from okay to awful, most notably changing Dark Helmet, originally played by 5'1" Creator/RickMoranis, to a dwarf.

* '''''Leo & Layla's History Adventures'''''. Ignoring the fact that the notorious American right-wing think tank [=PragerU=] is behind it, there is very little substance and quality behind it. The animation is [[UnintentionalUncannyValley unnecessarily creepy]] -- characters move and speak like poorly-automated machines amidst lifeless plastic backdrops. The show bungles its core premise - two kids going back in time to meet historical figures - by not only [[ArtisticLicenseHistory mischaracterizing those historical figures' values and beliefs]] in a bizarre inversion of PoliticallyCorrectHistory (for example, UsefulNotes/GalileoGalilei espousing anti-science[=/=]anti-vaccination beliefs or abolitionist Frederick Douglass being portrayed as more moderate than he actually was) but also having them make arguments built on logic, not even kids could follow--sometimes even in contradiction with the episode's moral. The show offers very little in the way of fun or entertainment value for its intended audience, as episodes almost entirely consist of characters having long conversations with almost no action or humor to keep kids captivated. Its shoddy production values and the incoherent story will drive away all but the most zealous right-wing parents, and everyone else will be alienated by it being a mouthpiece for [=PragerU=]'s politics. Big Joel dissects the show [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKJU0K_ebfU here]]; Creator/HunterAvallone's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGp3gULsLpI review]] is also worth checking out. Even WebVideo/YourMovieSucksDotOrg got in on the action and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92dYqTiiF1c reviewed the Neil Armstrong video]], concluding that its InsaneTrollLogic would be meaningless to children.

** '''''WesternAnimation/CansWithoutLabels''''' is an animated film that was intended to be John K's masterpiece. Instead, it completely torpedoed what was left of his career (well, that and [[OvershadowedByControversy several sexual assault allegations]] that were revealed in 2018). The film was stuck in DevelopmentHell for seven years and crowdfunded on Website/{{Kickstarter}}, suggesting it was [[DoingItForTheArt a labor of love]] -- but it turned out to betray almost everything Kricfalusi preached as an animator. Rather than use his trademark DerangedAnimation to advance a story, he pushed it to wild extremes to cover for the paper-thin plot. His notorious perfectionism bore no results; the editing is a mess on all fronts, from the production to the acting to the sound. The animation similarly looks incredibly cheap; the camera refuses to stop zooming and panning, and the backgrounds are inconsistent between scenes. He even [[TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects uses CG]] -- and [[SpecialEffectFailure jarring, ugly CG]] -- despite having long decried using CG in 2D animation.[[note]]Even worse, the CG models in the short are actually assets which are supposed to be ''traced''. This means that John K essentially used stock assets in what was supposed to be a notorious perfectionist's magnum opus.[[/note]] And the main conflict is resolved using a mean-spirited [[Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg Seltzerberg]]-esque parody of WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck, presumably as a TakeThat to Creator/{{Disney}}. WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter elaborates on the short itself [[https://youtu.be/HCbgXDQoMF4 here]], Daniel Ibbertson goes into detail on what happened with its Website/{{Kickstarter}} situation [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH54JGZjzRI here]], and [=TheGrandMac=] discusses the short [[https://youtu.be/ydzNPLo_H14 here]], as well as the animatic for a [[WhatCouldHaveBeen planned]] ''Ren & Stimpy'' short to accompany [[WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobMovieSpongeOutOfWater the second SpongeBob movie]].

*** The episode "Naked Beach Frenzy" as well as a few produced episodes involve women that are animated in a very uncomfortable and disturbing manner. They are often sexualized to a disturbing degree. What makes this so unsettling and horrible is that for a lot of the show, they are mocking objectified caricatures of the victims of John K’s sexual abuse, and the women in "Naked Beach Frenzy" are lusted after by Ren (the AuthorAvatar for John Kricfalusi). Given John K’s disgusting crimes and how similar the women look to the victims (Katie Rice, a victim of John K and one of the animators on the show, voices a character named Soap Girl), the show goes from creepy and gross to virtually unwatchable.

* '''''WebAnimation/TheTransformersCombinerWars''''', a 2016 web series co-produced by {{Machinima}} and Creator/{{Hasbro}}. Initially billed as a more mature work for hardcore fans, said hardcore fans almost instantly savaged it due to poor-quality CGI reminiscent of ''Anime/TransformersEnergon'', a low framerate that makes actions highly janky, an unclear and barebones narrative, a large amount of {{Padding}} despite the full miniseries only clocking in at 40 minutes, little screentime devoted to the characters the series was created to advertise, terrible characterization (with [[NiceGirl Windblade]] being depicted as a murderous psychopath for no apparent reason, and Starscream being depicted as humbled by having a position of leadership, only to reveal it was all an act in the final episodes for no reason) and, most infamously, the fact that the web series was released well after the toyline it was made to promote had left retail. When Website/TFWikiDotNet says ''Energon'' [[https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers:_Combiner_Wars_(cartoon) looks good by comparison]], you know something has gone horribly, horribly wrong. Amazingly enough, it still managed to get '''two''' sequels. And the worst part? They somehow got '''[[WebVideo/DashieXP Dashie]]''' and '''[[WebVideo/HonestTrailers Jon Bailey]]''', of all people, to work on it (they were the voice of Menasor and ''freaking Optimus Prime'', respectively), and not even ''they'' can save this trainwreck. At least the two follow-up series, ''Titans Return'' and ''Power of the Primes'', were improvements thanks to longer episodes, better animation, more consistent characterizations, and an all-star cast such as Creator/PeterCullen, Creator/JuddNelson, and Creator/GreggBerger reprising their respective roles as Optimus Prime, Rodimus Prime, and Grimlock, Creator/WilWheaton as Perceptor, Wrestling/SamoaJoe as Predaking, and even Creator/RonPerlman as Optimus Primal and ''Creator/MarkHamill'' as Megatronus.

* Despite the involvement of director Creator/MelBrooks (who also reprised his roles as President Skroob and Yogurt, as well as also being involved in writing and producing), Creator/JoanRivers (Dot Matrix), Creator/DaphneZuniga (Princess Vespa), and Creator/DomDeLuise (Pizza the Hutt, in a rather undignified final performance before his passing), '''''Film/{{Spaceballs}}: The Animated Series''''' has been given the FanNickname ''Da Soich for More Money'' from fans of the original movie.[[note]]For those who haven't seen ''Spaceballs'', the nickname references a scene in which the movie's [[Franchise/StarWars Yoda]] equivalent, Yogurt, teases a sequel with that subtitle.[[/note]] The designs of the characters range from okay to awful, most notably changing Dark Helmet, originally played by 5'1" Creator/RickMoranis, to a dwarf. The joke may have been about Helmet's phallic appearance, but there was no reason to make him look like a bobblehead with or without it. The animation doesn't fare any better. In an annoyingly lazy move, it rehashes jokes from the movie. In fact, the first two episodes are basically a remake of the movie as a two-parter. The rest of the series is a ShallowParody of other movies, such as ''Film/TheTerminator'', ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'', and even non-Sci-Fi films like ''Film/HarryPotter''. That is not only comparable to a Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg movie, but it renders the title of the show and the movie it was based on redundant.

* '''''Full English''''' was an attempt by British network Creator/Channel4 to create an adult cartoon to capitalize on the success of American shows such as ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' and ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark''. Unfortunately, despite using Creator/RoughDraftStudios for its animation and casting well-known British names such as Creator/RichardAyoade and Creator/KayvanNovak, the show was regarded as an abomination by viewers and critics alike. Many labeled it as a "British" ripoff of ''Family Guy'' with [[FollowTheLeader several copied elements]], such as the main character's wife having a billionaire father who disapproves of his son-in-law. The gags were so offensive that ''Family Guy'', at its most shocking, isn't as tasteless. The most infamous was a segment in which the ghost of notorious reality TV star Jade Goody, who had died of cancer three years before broadcast, chats about [[BlackComedyRape her husband's then-ongoing rape case]] -- only to be interrupted by the ghost of Princess Diana, who [[CrossesTheLineTwice apologizes for being late because the traffic was "murder"]], who gets into a fight with Goody's ghost and calls her "baldy" while Goody's ghost calls her a "bulimic slut". That one led even the infamously sensationalist UsefulNotes/{{British Newspaper|s}} ''The Daily Mail'' to [[EveryoneHasStandards call it]] the [[http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2236151/Is-sickest-cartoon-Channel-4s-Full-English-shows-ghosts-Princess-Diana-Jade-Goody-scrapping-Peoples-Princess.html "sickest cartoon ever"]]. It was cancelled after four episodes, the remaining ones were shunted off to sister network E4, and none of it was aired again; Channel 4 still pretends it never happened.
