YMMV / Inspector Gadget (2015)

Go To

  • Foe Yay Shipping:
    • Between Penny and Talon, Dr. Claw's nephew. How much there is seems to depend on the writer, as in some episodes they are at each other's throats, in others they banter during their fights and in others still they borderline flirt.
    • In the Valentine's Day Episode, Claw actually gets Gadget as a match on a dating website. Obviously Claw is less than pleased.
    • The episode in which Talon disguises himself as Gadget's old musical partner has a running subplot about how Dr. Claw was a huge fan, which comes across like a Stalker with a Crush in several scenes.
  • Ho Yay: Gadget refers to several other different male characters as "lovely". His descriptions of Chief Quimby are even more romantic-sounding at times, and Quimby never protests.
  • Just Here for Godzilla: Even fans of the original Inspector Gadget who don't like the 2015 iteration will happily admit they watch anyway simply because of the interactions between Penny and Talon.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks!:
    • A lot of fans of the original series don't like the CG style of the new series.
    • Some fans are wary about Penny and Brain being directly involved in missions, as well as Penny having a romantic interest in Talon, one of the villains.
    • There have also been complaints about Maurice LaMarche not reprising his role as Gadget and the new theme song.
  • Another common complaint is that this series has Gadget Take Another Level In Jerkass, which only gets more exaggerated in the later episodes. Likewise, Dr. Claw's more childish depiction has also received much annoyance.
