* SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct: "Hot Spring Fever" can best be described as Creator/JeffBennett hamming it up as Samson and Raj for 10 minutes. There's a reason Creator/JoeMurray said he should've won an award for his work in this episode.

* FanonDiscontinuity: A lot of fans don't like the series finale (and to a lesser extent, the entire last season) and don't consider it to be canon, due to how it heavily contradicts the show's history (even for a show like this.)

* AssPull: The finale "Lumpus' Last Stand" revealing that [[spoiler:Lumpus was an imposter who locked up the real scoutmaster of Camp Kidney and stole his job for the whole summer.]] It has nothing to do with the rest of the episode and contradicts many of [[spoiler:Lumpus's]] actions throughout the show ([[spoiler:mainly his attempts to leave Camp Kidney and explicit refusals to do his job]]) and his established history with the camp.

* SoOkayItsAverage: Although it's not as funny as [[WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy most]] [[WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy of]] [[WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor its]] [[WesternAnimation/FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends contemporary]] Creator/CartoonNetwork shows, and doesn't have as much [[{{demographically inappropriate humour}} adult humour]] as much as Joe Murray's [[WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife previous show]], it's still an altogether decent show with more than a few SugarWiki/FunnyMoments. It ''did'' win an Emmy after all.

Added DiffLines:

* VanillaProtagonist: Lazlo, with his nonchalant and chipper attitude, is much less interesting than his supporting cast, like [[LovableCoward Raj]], [[CrazyIsCool Clam]], and [[PsychopathicManchild Scoutmaster Lumpus]]. Creator/JoeMurray noted in his book that the writers loved coming up with crazy scenarios involving the side characters, but when he'd remind them to think about what Lazlo would be doing, they'd reply "Can't we just lock Lazlo in a closet for this episode?" Indeed, the later episodes would often put Lazlo OutOfFocus to focus more on exploring the side characters.

The tortoise and the frog in that episode both look and sound like Filburt and Rachel (deadname: Ralph) respectively.
