* VindicatedByHistory: The series was fairly polarizing amongst fans when it first premiered, mainly due to the {{Flanderization}} of the main cast (especially Po), emphasis on comedy over everything else, and occasionally [[ClicheStorm cliched plots]]. However, the show's detractors have started to warm up to it over the years. Its successor shows ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPandaThePawsOfDestiny'' and ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPandaTheDragonKnight'' both ended up being somewhat divisive, with a particular sore point being that Shifu and the Furious Five were completely absent. As a result of this, detractors began to see ''Legends of Awesomeness'' in a better light, with a few even admitting that some of the series' jokes [[ActuallyPrettyFunny can actually be rather humorous]].

* FanonDiscontinuity: If there's one thing the entire KFP fanbase has disowned is the idea [[NoYay that Tigress had a crush on Shifu]] given the rest of the franchise (including other episodes of this series) had portrayed Shifu as Tigress's ParentalSubstitute

* SacredCow: While pretty much any aspect or episode of the show has received at least some criticisms, most detractors would at least admit that "Enter the Dragon" is a pretty good special.

Added DiffLines:

* SoOkayItsAverage: Most would agree that the show isn't great and has its fair share of flaws, especially concerning the characterizations of the main characters, but most would agree that it's not outright bad and has a few genuinely funny moments and interesting ideas up its sleeve. It just can't be compared to the quality of the movies.

** Po, thanks to his AdaptationalJerkass behavior. Some still find him a funny, lovable idiot as he was in the movies, while others find him an incompetent, self-centered jerk who [[NiceJobBreakingItHero causes most of the show's problems]].

The fact that he constantly suffers from AesopAmnesia doesn't help.

** Peng, solely because of the fact that he's [[spoiler: Tai Lung's nephew.]] There's several fans who consider him an EnsembleDarkHorse, attributing some of the show's best writing to him, while others can't overlook the fact that it [[ContinuitySnarl makes no sense]] for him to be [[spoiler: Tai Lung's nephew since the latter was an orphaned DoorstopBaby]]. And then there's a few who think he's just [[{{Wangst}} too whiny and angsty]].

* BaseBreakingCharacter:
** Fung and the Crocodile Bandits. Either you think their GoldfishPoopGang antics are some of the funniest parts of the show or just annoying and want them off screen. Not helped by the fact that they appeared the most out of the show's RoguesGallery, causing some who originally thought they were humorous to grow tired of them.

** Song is fairly popular among fans despite being a OneShotCharacter, thanks to her heartwarming and hilarious ShipTease with Po and her HeelFaceTurn after BecomingTheMask. Many fans are disappointed she didn't appear in any other episodes.

** The [[ChineseVampire Jiang-Shi]], thanks to being [[NightmareFuel legitimately terrifying]], with the episode they appeared in considered to be the scariest episode of the series.



** Kim the Invincible is also remembered for being a legitimately threatening and strong villain capable of breaking the Great Wall of China apart, intimidating even Shifu along with having an affable attitude to contrast his brutish exterior.
