History YMMV / AngelaAnaconda

* AcceptableReligiousTargets: Played with. Josephine is a devout Christian who is portrayed sympathetically, but the humor comes from the moments of her more extreme (and bizarre) religious expressions.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Angela's {{Imagine Spot}}s, considering [[RefugeInAudacity the sheer ridiculousness]] of the cruel and unusual situations she tries putting Nanette or anyone else through, [[ThisIsReality and how impossible it would be for her to actually pull any of them off]]. [[ButtMonkey Not to mention how low her chances already were in the first place.]]

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Angela herself; a funny and relatable protagonist or a CreepyChild (and sadly not the {{Goth}} kind) with an annoying voice that provides an awful theme song?

* MisBlamed: For a while, it was very common for people to believe that the show being owned by DHX Media was what prevented Nicktoons from airing the two ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'' episodes with the original ''Angela Anaconda'' shorts in reruns. This was debunked in the early 2010s when the creator of another ''[=KaBlam=]!'' short revealed on a (now defunct) fansite that Creator/{{Viacom}} still owns the two original shorts, just nothing else. The episodes continued to air in reruns on Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} even after the short was spun-off on Fox Family.

* ValuesResonance: The episode about the allowance shows a lot. Angela's brothers are given $5.00 per week allowance, she's only given $1.25 a week, but she only takes out the trash once. When she does extra chores, she's only given a bonus of $0.50. That strikes *very* hard for people who do extra work but are told it's not really worth much.

* CriticalBacklash / VindicatedByHistory: Of a sort. The series was reviled by many thanks to the ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie'' tie-in, the [[ClicheStorm mundane plots]], and the bizarre animation style. But the show still has its fans outside the BileFascination, with some even appreciating it - especially when the creator made a [[https://www.youtube.comwatch?v=vPNBEoEVP84 video]] discussing that its intention was to be itself, and it's something that is conveyed very well with the show's overall theme of BeYourself and accept other people for who they are.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: This is arguably the point of Angela's {{Imagine Spot}}s, considering [[RefugeInAudacity the sheer ridiculousness]] of the cruel and unusual situations she tries putting Nanette or anyone else through, [[ThisIsReality and how impossible it would be for her to actually pull any of them off]]. [[ButtMonkey Not to mention how low her chances already were in the first place.]]

* {{Designated Hero}}ine: Angela Anaconda can come off as this in her {{Imagine Spot}}s, where she fantasizes harming or even murdering ''anyone'' who dares does something she doesn't approve of, especially Nanette and Mrs. Brinks. Then again, see CrossesTheLineTwice above for how they're likely supposed to work.

* NeverLiveItDown: The infamous short that preceded ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. Not only was it full of CriticalResearchFailure [[ShallowParody in regards to the franchise]], [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment at no point was the short even advertised as being part of the movie]] resulting it being ''very'' jarring for the vast majority of ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' fans who have never even seen the show. A lot of the show's hatred comes from this single short alone.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Many people actually like the idea of the clip-art scrapbook style, but often consider that the plotlines of episodes are often too bland or over-the-top, while other people think that they are excuses for Angela to have more fuel for her Nanette (and Mrs. Brinks) hatred.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Despite it being a Canadian-American series, it proved noticeably more popular in the UK than Canada ''or'' the U.S., with the series being a staple of childrens' channels well into the mid-2000s, and its merchandise being popular for a good few years. This can probably be chalked up to UK audiences generally being more accepting of the brand of offbeat, mean-spirited humor embodied by the series.

* CriticalBacklash / VindicatedByHistory: Of a sort. The series was reviled by many thanks to the ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie tie-in, the [[ClicheStorm mundane plots]], and the bizarre animation style. But the show still has its fans outside the BileFascination, with some even appreciating it - especially when the creator made a [[https://www.youtube.comwatch?v=vPNBEoEVP84 video]] discussing that its intention was to be itself, and it's something that is conveyed very well with the show's overall theme of BeYourself and accept other people for who they are.

* HilariousInHindsight: The town is named 'Tapwater Springs'. A report years after the show ended revealed that much of what's bottled and marketed as "spring water" is really just ordinary, filtered tap water.

* CreatorsFavoriteEpisode: Ruby Smith-Merovitz (Nanette Manoir) said her favorite episode was "Goodbye Mrs. Brinks" because she got to play Nanette as a rebel biker and use a different part of her voice.
* CriticalBacklash / VindicatedByHistory: Of a sort. The series was reviled by many thanks to the Digimon movie tie-in, the [[ClicheStorm Mundane plots]], and the bizarre animation style. But the show still has its fans outside the BileFascination, with some even appreciating it - especially when the creator made a [[https://www.youtube.comwatch?v=vPNBEoEVP84 video]] discussing that its intention was to be itself, and it's something that is conveyed very well with the show's overall theme of BeYourself and accept other people for who they are.

** Cici Lecreme from "The French Connection". While she is far from a major antagonist, Angela's immediate hostile reaction to her becoming friends with Nanette is very heavy-handed, especially as Cici herself still remains fairly kind to Angela and even admits to still caring about her.

* WatchItForTheMeme: Many people watch the show due to the reviews by The Mysterious Mr. Enter, [=PhantomStrider=], AmazzonKane if you're a fan, or for the theme song.

* AmericansHateTingle: The ''Angela Anaconda'' short attached to ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. For American viewers (especially among those who never heard of ''Angela Anaconda''), this was a BigLippedAlligatorMoment that seemed [[{{Filler}} only to exist to pad out the movie before it even began]]. The Latin American crowd likewise hated it, as the Digimon movie was the only product that used the North American localization script and included Angela Anaconda as a short.

* MemeticMutation: The ''Angela Anaconda'' short attached to ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie'' is regarded as terrible {{filler}}. It's apparently so bad that, according to a conspiracy by a Website/FourChan user, their parents divorced when they thought that the other brought them to the wrong movie during a tumultuous time in their marriage.

* MisBlamed: For a while, it was very common for people to believe that the show being owned by DHX Media was what prevented Nicktoons from airing the two ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'' episodes with the original ''Angela Anaconda'' shorts in reruns.

The episodes continued to air in reruns on Nickelodeon even after the short was spun-off on Fox Family.
** The show itself gets a lot of this for the infamous tie in with ''The Digimon Movie'', likely resulting in the beginning of the extensive online backlash against the show. However, the tie in was more likely a studio decision and not that of the creators and crew.
* NeverLiveItDown: The infamous short that preceded ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. Not only was it full of CriticalResearchFailure [[ShallowParody in regards to the franchise]], [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment at no point was the short even advertised as being part of the movie]] resulting it being ''very'' jarring for the vast majority of ''Digimon'' fans who have never even seen the show. A lot of the shows hatred comes from this single short alone.

** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KppHQow2jVI two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wENdQNu_NI original]] shorts that aired as part of Kablam make the series look adorable by comparison.

** The original shorts aired on Kablam, which were much more crude in comparison to the later series. The fact that characters like Nanette and Johnny have cherub-smiling faces that don't change makes it worse.

* NeverLiveItDown: The infamous short that preceded ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. Not only was it full of CriticalResearchFailure in regards to the franchise, [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment at no point was the short even advertised as being part of the movie]] resulting it being ''very'' jarring for the vast majority of ''Digimon'' fans who have never even seen the show. A lot of the shows hatred comes from this single short alone.

* NeverLiveItDown: The infamous short that preceeded ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. Not only was it full of CriticalResearchFailure in regards to the franchise, [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment at no point was the short even advertised as being part of the movie]] resulting it being ''very'' jarring for the vast majority of ''Digimon'' fans who have never even seen the show. A lot of the shows hatred comes from this single short alone.

* NeverLiveItDown: The infamous short that proceeded ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. Not only was it full of CriticalResearchFailure in regards to the franchise, [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment at no point was the short even advertised as being part of the movie]] resulting it being ''very'' jarring for the vast majority of ''Digimon'' fans who have never even seen the show. A lot of the shows hatred comes from this single short alone.

** Surprisingly, Nanette can come off as this, as WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter points out in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzDNojt7_HA his review of]] "The Substitute".

* CriticalResearchFailure: In "Fall Weather Friends", Nanette is said to have laryngitis, but is still able to speak, as though she had just lost her voice rather than, oh I don't know, ''been infected with laryngitis.''

* MemeticPsychopath: The title character has become one in later years. People make her out to be a psychopath who imagines herself killing Nannette, ignoring the fact that she doesn't intend it seriously ([[RefugeInAudacity and how]] [[CrossesTheLineTwice it shows]]), and that she's only a child and that a lot of children tend to do that.

** The show itself gets a lot of this for the infamous tie in with The Digimon Movie, likely resulting in the beginning of the extensive online backlash against the show. However, the tie in was more likely a studio decision and not that of the creators and crew.

** Baby Lulu alone is considered as one of the ''absolute CREEPIEST examples in Western Animation history'', to the point where her face can make even the most horrific monsters from ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'' look like {{Ridiculously Cute Critter}}s in comparison.

* AmericansHateTingle: The ''Angela Anaconda'' short attached to ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. For American viewers (as ''Angela Anaconda'' had become past its prime at that point in the States), this was a BigLippedAlligatorMoment that seemed [[{{Filler}} only to exist to pad out the movie before it even began]]. The Latin American crowd likewise hated it, as the Digimon movie was the only product that used the North American localization script and included Angela Anaconda as a short.

* AmericansHateTingle: The ''Angela Anaconda'' short attached to ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. For American viewers (as ''Angela Anaconda'' was essentially non-existent in the States), this was a BigLippedAlligatorMoment that seemed [[{{Filler}} only to exist to pad out the movie before it even began]]. The Latin American crowd likewise hated it, as the Digimon movie was the only product that used the North American localization script and included Angela Anaconda as a short.

* TheScrappy: A rare invoked example in [[AlphaBitch Nanette Manoir]], [[GirlPosse Karlean, and January.]] Although Karlean seems to be treated as the least of three evils as unlike January, she actually got some {{character development}}.

* ClicheStorm: For those not turned away by the art style and the lead character's voice, the general plots are the same used in many other SliceOfLife cartoons, and many character-arcs are based around common stereotypes (such as Johnny's grandparent's Mafia-like feud with a conflicting pizza restauarant, and Nanette being both the AlphaBitch and RichBitch).

** For some, Baby Lulu's face may make even the most horrific monsters from ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'' look like {{Ridiculously Cute Critter}}s in comparison.
** The original shorts aired on Kablam, which were much more crude in comparison to the later shorts. The fact that characters like Nanette and Johnny have cherub-smiling faces that don't change makes it worse.

* Creator's Favorite Episode: Ruby Smith-Merovitz (Nanette Manoir) said her favorite episode was "Goodbye Mrs. Brinks" because she got to play Nanette as a rebel biker and use a different part of her voice.
* CriticalResearchFailure: In "Fall Weather Friends", Nanette is said to have laryngitis, but is still able to speak, as though she had just lost her voice than, oh I don't know, ''been infected with laryngitis.''
