Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley:
** The bunnies seen in the episodes in Bunningham Palace look a little off. Especially when the queen briefly shows up.
** The grandmother just has a rather...''uncomfortable'' vibe about her, it doesn't help that she's the '''[[NonStandardCharacterDesign only]]''' [[NonStandardCharacterDesign character with colored eyes.]]
** The "look" and animation of Max and some of the smaller rabbits can be odd. While Ruby and older characters have a more or less "normal" look to their bodies, Max and younger characters are basically dragging their butts on the ground when they walk. In fact, Max' legs often look like they're attached at his ''waist'' rather than his hips.
** Auditory example: for people who grew up on the older seasons where Max had a limited vocabulary, hearing him speak full sentences as of Season 6 can be very off-putting.

Blooper isn't a YMMV trope, and Ruby is not voiced by Tabitha St. Germain


* {{Blooper}}: Once, during "Ruby's Birthday Party", Martha's voice actress, Creator/TabithaStGermain was having too much fun that she accidentally dropped her high pitched voice to her normal voice.



* OlderThanTheyThink: Before the Nelvana animated series, ''Weston Woods Studios'' made two animated direct-to-video adaptations of the "Max & Ruby" series for ''Scholastic Storybook Treasures''. The first was ''Max's Christmas'' released in 1988, and ''Max's Chocolate Chicken'' which was adapted in 1991.

Not only is this complaining, but these shows have nothing to do with each other. Also, Dueling Works is a trivia trope, not a YMMV trope


* DuelingWorks: With ''WesternAnimation/Animaniacs2020''. ''Max and Ruby'' is easily mocked by the internet due to Ruby being a jerk and not being the best example of an older sibling. ''Animaniacs'' easily wins because Yakko, Wakko, and Dot do a much better job of working together as siblings/best friends, and are considered one of the best cartoon characters of all time.

* AdaptationDisplacement: The Nelvana animated series is more well-known to the general public than the original (and ongoing) children's book series of the same name by Creator/RosemaryWells.

** The ending to the episode "Goodnight Max" where it ends with Max falling asleep while wishing goodnight to Walky Talky Bear with it replying to Max's comment.
** A sweeter ending similar to that episode is "Max's Rubber Elephant" where Max finally founds his toy elephant under a pile of stuff Ruby put on Max's bed. Before Max leaves his room to sleep in his sister's bed, he looks back and says "Goodnight Ruby" in a sincere tone. This moment shows that despite messing with his sister most of the time, he really cares about Ruby.
