10* AdaptationalJerkass:
11** ''Anime/{{Hamtaro}}'' has turned from being a helpful Ham-Ham into a crazed hamster who'll fuck anything that moves. Penelope, instead of being the TagalongKid, is a freak of nature who was exposed to Chernobyl's radiation by her blanket, and Boss is just lazy.
12** ''[[WesternAnimation/NoddysToylandAdventures Noddy]]'' becomes a pimp who kills Mr. Plod's pets [[ForTheEvulz for no apparent reason]].
13** [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} Optimus Prime]] is a {{Jerkass}} who tortures and kills people he's annoyed by instead of protecting lives wherever the Autobots find any.

14*** Bumblebee is also portrayed as a [[PaedoHunt pedophile]] [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Teleshits/comments/du159n/he_later_went_to_prison_and_was_forced_to_share_a/ as with this comic]].

21* ButtMonkey:
22** ''WesternAnimation/{{Caillou}}'' is depicted usually as a comically suffering cancer child instead of a BrattyHalfPint-turned imagination lover. The show being pulled from Creator/PBSKids was commemorated with a strip where it's revealed that [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Teleshits/comments/l3rpp8/the_real_reason_why_caillou_was_pulled_from_pbs/ The Get-Along Gang was apparently behind his show's hatedom and his abuse in the Teleshits posts over the years]].
23** The titular character of ''Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile'' is depicted as the object of Joseph Primm's affections.
24* DullSurprise: [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Teleshits/comments/dv531o/dont_worry_optimus_killed_hot_rod_so_ultra_magnus/ In one comic]], [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} Optimus Prime]] is sentenced to death for murdering members of ''WesternAnimation/TheGetAlongGang'' for not giving Roller back to him after an activity they did. Prime isn't surprised given his tendency for [[DisneyDeath Disney Deaths]].
25* ForTheEvulz: Everyone's apparent motivations.
26** [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Teleshits/comments/as5zhq/monster_jam_tv_was_better_suited_as_a_show_on/ One comic]] has Alex Blackwell of ''UsefulNotes/MonsterJam'' [[Main/DoNotAdjustYourSet hijacking the local TV station]] in order to threaten every child in town into giving FELD Entertainment money, or else he will run their grandmothers' cars over with Captain's Curse.
