1* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: The animation in the cartoons is incredibly fluid for something made in UsefulNotes/ToonBoom, and the backgrounds aren't bad either.
2* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Their songs are just so damn well made.
3** For their covers of pre-existing songs, there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGsHd9RuYRg If You're Happy and You Know It]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ozzo7GQLoAE Heads, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1_UzlOOZOo This Little Light of Mine]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgYCQP-J3jk Here We Go Looby Loo]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qL6i-8lbNAo Rig-a-Jig-Jig]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQhlZgNLG5A Six Little Ducks]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkBLpD9EYbM Mr. Sun]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwlYiJEy0Po Peek-a-Boo]].
4** For their original songs, there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaMhY8uvUWE Ice Cream Song]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zw8fapoBDK4 Dinosaur Stomp]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFNiPY_TA_8 Freight Train]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9KmuXCEBdc Rainbow, Rainbow]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLAp30NQ0E0 Earth is Our Home]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Is9DbPAnlaQ Rockin' Robot]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YbSaRrd4-c Soccer Rocker]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a44NFSiIn54 The Planting Song]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-63Xx7jK26A Eight Planets]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CvTUFlvFYQ A Haunted House on Halloween Night]].
5* BrokenBase: Which is better: their covers or their originals? The live-action or the cartoons? And was the 2015 ReTool necessary?
6* CoveredUp: "Swimming" is actually a traditional song usually sung at summer camps. MGC's cover changed a few lyrics and added new ones, and became so popular to the point where people think MGC created it.
7* EnsembleDarkhorse: The animation-exclusive characters: Humpty Dumpty, his unnamed girlfriend, and Yuri the Monkey.
8* FriendlyFandoms: Parents who let their kids watch ''MGC'' are friendly with those who let their kids watch ''[=ChuChuTV=]'' and ''Little Baby Bum''.
9* GrowingTheBeard: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7ggSLIJJ58 Once they released their version of "Ring Around the Rosy"]], the quality of their videos started to go up, as their live-action videos began to be filmed in glorious HD, and they started making more original songs. That is, until the quality went down the toilet a few years later.
10* {{Moe}}: All six characters, especially in the chibi art style that was used since "The Planting Song".
11* NarmCharm: The program can best be described as six teens/adults wearing ridiculous costumes singing children's songs while dancing against a weird greenscreen. Despite that, the actors clearly do their best and their songs are just so adorable, catchy, and well-made.
12* PeripheryDemographic: Mostly consisting of teens and young adults who find the actors attractive, but also of people who legitimately enjoy the songs. The pre-2017 videos are surprisingly high quality for a nursery rhyme [=YouTube=] channel.
13* SeasonalRot: Since 2017, particularly the Creator/WildBrain buyout, the brand went from unique to just another face in the crowd, constantly chasing trends.
14* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: As evidenced by the pre-COPPA [=YouTube=] and Facebook comments, some parents took issue with the recasting of Mary, Eep, Jack, and Bo Peep. This has since faded away, though.
15* UnintentionalUncannyValley: As of 2022, the animations have ditched the CartoonyEyes and now use huge "normal" eyes to the characters. The end result [[https://mothergooseclub.com/videos/rainbow-rainbow-cartoon-nursery-rhymes/ is a tad unsettling]].
16* ViewerGenderConfusion:
17** A shocking amount of viewers think Eep is a girl.
