History YMMV / ParadisePD

* DracoInLeatherPants: Gina Jabowski is a cruel, violent, disgusting sexual assailant in the TV show. However, lots of fans make artwork of her being cute, cool, [[NiceGirl friendly, lovable]], and above all, [[EvilIsSexy sexy]]. They usually cite [[spoiler:Gina's childhood trauma]] as an excuse for her heinous actions and treat her character like a misguided woobie with a good heart in their fan works.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: [[spoiler:The series finale ended on a cliffhanger, due to the network not telling the writers about the show's cancellation until long after the finished writing the season. However, Roger and Waco were still able to animate one last scene [[TheStinger during the credits]] of the last episode, where Robby and Delbert walked up and [[BreakingTheFourthWall broke the fourth wall]] to explain why the show ended this way and assure the audience that they'll be giving the show a [[GrandFinale proper finale]], via [[{{Crossover}} crossover]] with [[WesternAnimation/{{Farzar}} Farzar]] during the latter show's second season.]]

* EvilIsSexy: Most of Gina's fans like her just because she's hot.

* HarsherInHindsight: In "Karla", (airdate: August 30th, 2018) Dusty collected the skulls of all three of the dead [[Series/TheGoldenGirls golden girls]] and had them all preserved in glass display cases, but lacked that of the then-alive Betty White. Dusty caressed his empty display case and creepily crooned, "Sooooon ... Sooooon." On December 31st, 2021, Betty White would be found dead in her apartment, just weeks shy of what would have been her 100th birthday.

** Season 4 is considered to be the absolute ''worst'' season by even the show's most loyal fans for a myriad of reasons. This season saw [[spoiler:the police department getting abolished]], which not only [[ArtifactTitle went against what Paradise PD was all about]], but also made this season even more directionless than Season 3, since now not only was there absolutely no police case to serve as a seasonal story arc, but now the show was so loosely based on an overall plot, every episode was basically just the characters screwing around and doing whatever random nonsense the writers came up with for them. This allowed for many pointless [[RandomEventsPlot random events plots]] such as "A Star is Porn", "The Butt Cut", and "Boat!". Worst of all, there was also the fact that [[spoiler:this season ended the series on a [[{{Cliffhanger}} cliffhanger]]. However, this last thing is justified, since Roger and Waco didn't know this was going to be the last season, when they wrote this.]] [[note]]During [[TheStinger the credits]] of the series finale, Robby and Delbert even [[BreakingTheFourthWall broke the fourth wall]] to announce that they'll be "wrapping up the series on [[WesternAnimation/{{Farzar}} Farzar]]", suggesting that [[AuthorsSavingThrow Season 2 of the latter series will give this show a proper conclusion]].[[/note]]

* DiagnosedByTheAudience: Some of Edna's scenes seem to imply that she's not entirely there, specifically, where she suddenly announces that does ''[[ADateWithRosiePalms things]]'' with her feet.

* MoralEventHorizon: Kevin was consistently the [[TokenGoodTeammate token good teammate]] of the show, being the only character to never commit any crimes or selfish acts of villainy until halfway through Season 3 when he went through some slight derailment and started to approach this.
** In "How the Cookie Crumbles", Kevin broke into a robbed a sperm bank in an attempt to steal Randall's semen, since Randall was too cheap to actually buy it himself. It could be argued, however, that the bank overcharged him for the semen and Randall desperately needed it, since, as an impotent man, this was his only chance at getting Karen pregnant, so Kevin was breaking the rules for the greater good.
** In "What Happens in Twatemala", Kevin drugged Dusty's drink and got into his clothes to wear his unconscious body like a suit so that he could have a more attractive appearance when having sex with Gina. Although he didn't succeed at having sex with Gina, he did manage to break a hole through the floor with Dusty's weight added to the bed, crushing the couple beneath him to death. Though his murder could be labeled an accident, it was still wrong of Kevin to spike Dusty's drink like this.

** In "Showdown at the O-bese Corral", Gina looked around town and saw a bunch of naked fat people, which got her wet. Some of the fat people in these shots included women. She later rubbed off to a bunch of hot naked fat people in the Golden Corral and squirted all over them. Again, this group of naked fatties included other women.

* UnacceptableTargets:
** In Season 2, sexual harassment is treated like the epidemic it is. ([[DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale if it's happening to a woman]]). In "Paradise Found", Harvey Weinstein was hired as a member of a villain team but Fitz swiftly cut him from the crew, claiming even ''he'' [[EvenEvilHasStandards is too disgusting for them]]. Harvey Weinstein serves as the butt of the joke, rather than the women he harasses when the final zinger of the episode is him getting slapped across the face by a potted plant.[[note]]Referencing the often-told story of how one of his assaults involved cornering a woman in a restaurant and [[{{Squick}} masturbating in front of her into a potted plant]].[[/note]]
** At the end of the season, [[spoiler:The Legion of Dooooom has a big musical number about how "Bad Guys Don't Have to be Bad at Being Guys", wherein they detail how they'll proudly indulge in just about every other sickening act; murdering police, kidnapping babies, mutilating people to death, but sexual harassment of ''any'' kind is a step too far. [[BrokenAesop Sadly, it sort of turns back into a joke again]], when Fitz, Thester, and Edna all do ImmediateSelfContradiction jokes after expressing their distaste for such the matter.]]

* SoOkayItsAverage: Many people who don't outright dislike the show or aren't fans just find it to be another run-of-the-mill adult cartoon with occasional moderately funny jokes. That being said, it is considered to be a bit better than ''Brickleberry''.
