History YMMV / AdventuresOfTheGummiBears

* SeinfeldIsUnfunny: As mentioned above, when the show first premiered in 1985, its animation and writing were praised for being higher in quality than most other shows that existed at the time. But because many other shows with better animation and serialization have since been released over the years, such as ''WesternAnimation/{{DuckTales|1987}}'' ([[WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017 and its reboot]]), ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooMysteryIncorporated'', ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'', and ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'', modern viewers likely won't be able to see why this show was so revolutionary in terms of animation and storytelling, and will likely dismiss it as being just another cartoon from the 80s.

* HilariousInHindsight:
** Zummi really likes that fire-lighting spell -- does that make him a [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheEmberIslandPlayers Fire Gummi]]?
** In "Girl's Knight Out," Calla enters the competition (including, among other events, archery) to be her own bodyguard. 25 years later, Merida would try the exact same strategy in Pixar's ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}''. [[spoiler:Or maybe ''Franchise/StarWars'', where Calla faces her opponent, and at the end the enemy reveals himself to be her father, King Gregor, much like Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader]].

* WhatAnIdiot: Gruffi in "Road to Ursalia" for leaving a lit candle on the Great Book of Gummi.

** Gruffi, given how he's hard on the younger Gummis.
