History YMMV / KidsIncorporated

* SeasonalRot: There's a bit of a BrokenBase here, but most consider the show to have jumped the shark by the time the series ended in 1993. Part of the shows charm was that it was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Db74N6gPeAc bright, sparkly, and colorful,]] basically the Eighties personified. By the final season in 1993, things had gotten [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ME4vGAU0gU a lot more subdued.]] You can't fault them for changing with the times (at that point, the Glam of the Eighties had given way to the Grit of the Nineties,) but it was just... weird. Some were actually glad the show didn't last any longer as the proposed direction would've included some episodes with no songs whatsoever which would've been very far from the shows original premise.

* JustHereForGodzilla: Many people who watch the episodes on Website/YouTube nowadays usually watch it for either a young Music/{{Fergie}}; Creator/JenniferLoveHewitt, Music/{{Martika}} or to a lesser degree Creator/EricBalfour and/or Creator/HaylieJohnson.

** In "School's For Fools", The Kid is brushing off his studies because he plans to be a rock star and doesn't care about school. Instead of studying for finals, he plans to go to a rock concert. Why is this funny? One of the things he's supposed to be studying is the difference between [[TheGreatPoliticsMessUp East and West Germany]]. And the rock star he's going to see? ''[[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff David Hasselhoff]]''.

** The 1987 episode "Russian 101" (in which Ryan is smitten with a member of the [[UsefulNotes/SovietRussiaUkraineAndSoOn Russian ballet]]) is a particularly noticeable example with references to the USSR and an {{Eagleland}}-focused original song that, watching in hindsight with TheGreatPoliticsMessUp, serve as a dead giveaway of its being produced late in the UsefulNotes/ColdWar.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: The theme song is a lot like "[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kids_in_America_(song) Kids in America]]" (which they have done a cover of).

* TheScrappy: Many fans' opinion of Haylie Johnson, who joined in 1991 and stayed for the remainder of the show's run.
