* UnintentionallySympathetic: Perry. While his running away from the monastery and refusing to come back supposedly spells doom, it's never explicitly stated exactly ''why'' a Chosen One is needed to keep the brotherhood alive or why no one else can take over those responsibilities. Add to that the fact that Perry appears to be living a very good and stable life outside of the monastery, and it's a little hard to rationalize dragging Perry back to the brotherhood.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The show's plot of the titular Grunts trying to find their brother Perry goes absolutely ''nowhere''. Every single episode shows them doing nothing but goofing off and getting into random trouble with none of them getting a hint as to where Perry is. Though, perhaps that's where the humor supposedly is. The episode where the Detective discovers the monastery probably would have been a turning point for the series.
