Go To

1* {{Adorkable}}:
2** Slippery Jack is a shy and clumsy nerd with glasses, bowtie, and NoSocialSkills.
3** Shaggy Mane, due to his clumsiness and overall vulnerability when compared to the rest of his group. This is also solidified when he becomes good friends with Slippery Jack.
4** Panther Cap, due to his shy and socially awkward nature. [[spoiler: Although this changes in season two.]]
5* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic Just try to find ''one'' song in this series that isn't good.
6* BaseBreakingCharacter: Despite being a pitifully small fanbase, the fans seem to be evenly split on their opinion of Mistle Toad, one side calling him a ReasonableAuthorityFigure and the other calling him an UngratefulBastard exploiting the naïve Toad Patrol into doing all the work for him.
7* CultClassic: ''Toad Patrol'' has gained a few fans over the years. There is a small group of people who truly appreciate the show. The show has gained a minor "I (vaguely) remember this show exists" reputation amongst millennial and Gen Z kids (as well as Gen Z Latinos who grew up watching the Spanish-dubbed reruns on what was then called [=Telefutura=]).
8* MemeticMutation: Hating Mistle Toad became one thanks to a livestream pointing out that he left a bunch of orphans to fend for themselves, fully thinking they wouldn't last the season.
9** "Earth Star is dead." [[labelnote: Explanation]] In "The Sacrifice", [[spoiler: Earth Star turns into a toadstool by the end of the episode]]. Since the episodes that resolved this issue aren't currently online (in English), a few fans have come to this conclusion. [[/labelnote]]
10** Poorly Dubbed carrot grating. [[labelnote: Explanation]] The Bosnian dub for this show is particularly atrocious, to the point where fans have compared Panther Cap's voice to that of a carrot being grated. [[/labelnote]]
11* HilariousInHindsight: The entire show is this given the existence of ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'', a similar show aired on the same network as ''Toad Patrol'', Toon Disney (now known as Creator/DisneyXD).
12* PeripheryDemographic: Given that the show was dumped by Toon Disney in an early-morning graveyard slot, it wasn't surprising that it picked up a bit of one from insomniacs and night owls who watched & liked.
13** It also doesn't hurt that in Canada the show continues to be kept in the public eye by the Run for the Toad still being held annually.
14* PopularWithFurries: Many members of the fandom are also furries, and Beauty Stem, Shaggy Mane, and Cleopatra the Skunk have attracted quite a lot of furry fans.
15* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: Every year, toad children have to go through a rite of passage of sorts. They have to brave several dangers, including various predators, to reach a magical portal before the end of summer. If they don't? They turn into toadstools for (supposedly) all eternity! Keep in mind that this was a show that was made for younger kids.
