* CriticProof: The series is widely loathed by cartoon fans, and generally considered among the absolute worst of CN's Canadian imports during the late 2000s and early 2010s by Internet critics. This didn't stop it from not only lasting 3 seasons and 52 episodes, but also getting AdoredByTheNetwork to the point of even becoming the first third-party show featured on Creator/CartoonNetwork's ''WesternAnimation/CartoonPlanet'' reboot, as well as getting a ton of licensed merchandising for the US market.

Entry complaining and not a valid example (the show was actually successful).


* AudienceAlienatingPremise: Just read the title. A lot of people didn't even bother to give the series a chance from that alone, which certainly wasn't helped by the character designs immediately earning the show a lot of bile for their grotesque appearances.

* CriticalDissonance: The show received a lot of hate on the Internet during its day, with many calling it one of the worst cartoons ever (regardless of whether they had actually seen it or not) and user ratings on sites like [=IMDb=] and TV.com being around 2.0-3.0. Despite this, the show managed to get heavy merchandising (including plushies, water bottles, clothes, umbrellas, and even Taco Bell kids' meals toys!), Gemini Award nominations, a third season, and even praise from professional critics like Common Sense Media (which called the show " smart enough that adults will get some laughs right alongside their kids") and People Magazine (which called it one of the best children's shows of 2011).
