History YMMV / BrainPOP

** Tim saying "How's... THIS?!" and turning into a monster near the end of the "Halloween" video.

* TearJerker: Any episode that deals with a serious subject like death, mourning, and extinction. The mourning episode is the biggest one of all, as it ends with a long, silent tribute to Naomi Kadar, who was a very essential member of the [=BrainPOP=] crew.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The ending of the "Atoms" video. First, Tim gets hit by an electron in a football field, and then we go inside an apple, and then we go back to the field where Moby throws Tim his football and tackles him.

* UncannyValley: In the 1997 Shockwave pilot shorts, Tim & Moby looked rather... ugly, to say the least.

* HoYay: There are quite a few fans of [=BrainPop=] who forget that the videos are supposed to be educational and ship Tim and Moby as a couple, making sexual fanfictions and fanart about them and completely ignoring the existence of Tim's crush, Rita.

* ShoutOut: The "Dreams" video has a bit where Tim's disembodied head is on fire and floating in a swirling vortex, referencing the intro of ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy''.

** The videos being exclusive to subscribers only can be divisive. While some can agree that this is done as its a business, others think the opposite. Thankfully, some videos are free on the website and on the official [=YouTube=] page.

** Moby wrecking a city and shooting YOU at the end of the "Bridges" episode.
** The [=BrainPOP=] interstitials that aired on the Discovery Channel in 1998 and 1999 are perfect examples of this.
** The 1997 Jack Zander episodes ARE EVEN MORE SCARY ON SO MANY LEVELS.

*** Can someone provide a link to these episodes?

* CrowningMomentOfFunny: Many, mainly caused by Moby.
** One notable example is (Of all things) the video on the [[TheTalk reproductive system,]] in which, after reading the fan-mail asking about it, Moby [[CrossesTheLineTwice bursts out into]] [[TheHyena maniacal laughter]] [[TruthInTelevision at the subject matter.]]
** Tim had no problem talking about that, and seems to be okay with most general subject matters (Urinary system, puberty, anything really) [[NoPeriodsPeriod EXCEPT for girl's periods.]] In that episode he just looked at the letter, said a ''loud'' [[OhCrap "Uh-oh,"]] then got Cassie and Rita to just take over and talk about it- while he hid the rest of that episode!
** "You have an imagination! At least, I think you do. Like, uh... that time you carved a whale-call out of a bowling pin! That was pretty creative."
*** "Whoa, they're climbing out of the water! I didn't know whales could do that!" (motorcycle revs) "Or ride motorcycles, for that matter!"
** ''(After a TimeSkip)'' "Alright, it's been three weeks. [[LampshadeHanging ...and I'm still wearing the same shirt.]]"
