History YMMV / YogiBear

* {{Narm}}: Yogi's use of the [[StockScream Wilhelm Scream]] has garnered infamy to the point where some call it one of the worst uses of the scream. This isn't helped by how [[NeverTrustATrailer he actually yelled in pain in the trailers]], which begs the question as to why the Wilhelm Scream was still used in the final product.

* WTHCastingAgency:
** Many fans were quite surprised when Creator/DanAykroyd was cast as the voice of Yogi Bear for the 2010 movie, and even more were outraged when Music/JustinTimberlake was cast as Boo Boo Bear. Surprisingly, as revealed by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hiJ2dbpRY0 the teaser]], Timberlake was actually quite spot on.[[note]]It probably helped that Timberlake imitated cartoon character voices as a child as a voice exercise, and Boo Boo was one of his favorites.[[/note]] Aykroyd, on the other hand, was more divisive, but even then many did like his take on Yogi.
** Creator/TomCavanagh is not the first actor who comes to mind when you think "strict authoritarian ranger". And for good reason.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The 1988 revival is definitely a product of the 1980s. The series features three episodes with Ninja Raccoon as part of the 1980s ninja craze. The episode "The Big Bear Ballet" has Yogi meeting a Russian lady bear; he mistakes her for a spy due to the Cold War.

* UnintentionalUncannyValley: The "great things come in bears" poster comes off as unnerving due to the fact that it uses extreme close-ups of Yogi and Boo-Boo's realistic stock images.

* AccidentalInnuendo: In "Booby Trapped Bear", the chief of the Rangers arrives to assess the situation because he was informed that someone was "[[BestialityIsDepraved molesting a bear]]." In the sixties, [[HaveAGayOldTime "molest" meant]] "pester and harass", as opposed to pestering and harassing in [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil a decidedly different sense]].

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Yogi ''really'' goes off the deep end when it comes to his obsession with human food in ''Yogi the Easter Bear''. Not only does he eat all of the Easter candy that was meant for the kids in the Jellystone Easter Jamboree, but he also destroys the Easter Bunny suit he used to get past security while escaping Ranger Smith. To his credit, he does feel guilty about it and manages to fix his mistake.

* SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct: If there's one thing that people will give the live action movie credit for, it's that Justin Timberlake does a surprisingly very good job as Boo-Boo.

* ClicheStorm: The plot is so predictable you can tell what's going to happen next even if you've never seen it before.

* RomanticPlotTumor: There’s literally no reason for Rachel Johnson to be Ranger Smith’s love interest. You could take that subplot away and still have the same movie.

** One of the movie's posters had a close-up of Yogi's and Boo Boo's smiling faces, with Yogi behind Boo Boo. The tagline? "[[http://cdn.collider.com/wp-content/uploads/yogi_bear_poster_02.jpg Great things come in bears]]".

* BrokenBase: While Justin Timberlake's Boo-Boo was very well-received, Dan Aykroyd's Yogi proved to be more divisive. Some thought he sounded completely off, others thought he did a good job.
** Was the brief 1988 reboot a solid return to form for Yogi (after he dabbled in numerous spinoffs like ''WesternAnimation/YogisGang'' and ''WesternAnimation/YogisTreasureHunt'') or just a lame modernized reprise of the classic Yogi shorts?
* ClicheStorm:
** The 2010 movie. The plot is so predictable you can tell what's going to happen next even if you've never seen it before.
** Likewise, most of the plots in the 1988 reboot (some of which are flat-out remakes of older Yogi cartoons).

* SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct: If there's one thing that people will give the live action movie credit for, it's that Justin Timberlake does a surprisingly very good job as Boo-Boo.

* RomanticPlotTumor: There’s literally no reason for Rachel Johnson to be Ranger Smith’s love interest. You could take that subplot away and still have the same movie.

* TheWoobie: Cindy Bear. The minute she cries, it's hard not to want to reach out and give her a hug.
** Especially in ''Hey There, It's Yogi Bear!''.

* WereStillRelevantDammit:
** ''Yo! Yogi''
** The 1988 shorts also sometimes gave this impression with their awkward 80's pop culture references, ranging from referencing ''Film/TheTerminator'' to the character of Ninja Raccoon[[note]]an obvious take on the popularity of Japanese Martial Arts in the late-80's[[/note]].

* TearJerker: You can't help feeling bad for Boo Boo in ''Hey There, It's Yogi Bear!''. First he thought Yogi has been sent to the San Diego Zoo (Yogi tricks another bear in his place and hid for a while), then Cindy gets herself transferred out to be with him. At first he finds some solace knowing that Yogi and Cindy will be together, until Ranger Smith told him Cindy has been sent to the St. Louis Zoo instead. Boo Boo tries to stop the truck but it's too far gone, leaving him all alone with the knowledge that Yogi and Cindy will [[StarCrossedLovers forever be separated]]. Until he reunited with Yogi, who's determined to find Cindy and take her home.

* MorePopularSpinoff: The Yogi Bear Show was basically a SpinOff of ''The Huckleberry Hound Show'', but it is much more remembered than its predecessor today.
