* CultClassic: The series never achieved mainstream popularity even in its heydey, but it has gained a surprisingly large fanbase in recent years due to the cartoons surreal qualities and Flip himself for being an anti-WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse of sorts. It helps that all of them are in the PublicDomain, meaning they’re easily accessible online.
* FriendlyFandoms:
** Flip fans tend to overlap and often be acquainted with fans of the works of Creator/FleischerStudios (i.e. WesternAnimation/BettyBoop, ComicStrip/{{Popeye}}) due to their series having very similar comedic/surreal tones to each other due to the influence of ex-Fleischer animation staff (mainly Creator/GrimNatwick) working on Flip.
** Ironically, theres also one between Flip and WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse despite the series starkly contrasting tones, possibly due to both characters [[Creator/UbIwerks sharing the same creator.]]
** Flip and ''VideoGame/{{Cuphead}}'' fans tend to get along as well, due in part to the former being a major influence on that series.
* SoOkayItsAverage: What allegedly led to the series' cancellation. Being done by Ub Iwerks, the animation and timing is excellently crafted for its time, but the plots and character humour are considered pale compared to what the likes of Disney were crafting at the time. This was noted by Chuck Jones who worked on the shorts, believing Iwerks pioneered giving his characters a sense of depth, but had no concept of actual humour.
* ValuesDissonance:
** The salesman in "The New Car" is one of the few unambiguously antisemitic caricatures from a [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation Golden Age]] cartoon.
** In addition, the shorts suffer from the occasional use of racist humor, but more often have a surprising frequency of CampGay stereotypes.
