Maybe it's vomit inducing aesthetic is beautiful in its own way

Craig of the Creek, I hate the character designs because of that annoying calarts style, only this time it's even worse. Like what the hell is up with the tallish guy's ear? Or how the girl next to the tallish guy looks less like a normal young girl and more like a hairy gnome. Craig himself is the only character that looks okay but I'm bothered by his weird gamer dent. And don't get me started on that mutated parrot.

I haven't seen the complete show, only clips of it and it just seems generic and catters to the nerdy weird outcast kids(I was one though), but I hope it's good and the clips I watched were out of context. It's just these character design suck more than the show's lame ass food and recipes.


Your critiques on it's art style seem to be that it's not anatomically correct. I personally like the way the 'hairy gnome' girl and Mortimer (the mutated parrot) look. Except you're right about everything else- everyone else doesn't really have anything special going on, like looking like a gnome or looking mutated. And JP's ear has always weirded me out. I can't stand it

A human being looked at that and thought it was acceptable.

That's the scariest part about this image.


I strongly disagree. I know your reply was just oh haha silly, lots of people shall like this reply, and wasn't meant to have any material. But come on. Do you really mean that? I can't believe something harmless produced by a human being and accepted by another human being would be something of terror. Grow up. (In more of an argumentative way than a personal attack)


Edit: Didn't see the date your reply was posted. But I still don't like your reply

The Drinky Crow Show

It's probably not the worst one for anybody else, but I remember how I couldn't grasp any plot because of the awful old 3D animation that made my eyes hurt.

It doesn't look bad, but why does it look so... generic?

Objects show is boring, it is not for amateur animators it is for lazy people

The worst is Big Mouth by far, but honourable mention to Gaither's Pond

I can respect the rough effort put into Gaithers Pond, but Big Mouth chose ugliness.

I strongly disgree with your opinion... I understand why.

I recently rewatched the show, all 95 episodes, yes it may have good and bad elements, I generally think it's a unique show for it's time especially for the visuals.

12 Oz. Mouse, I don’t care if it was bad on purpose. It looks like it was made a preschooler! But I bet a preschooler would make something way better than 12 Oz. Mouse.


But the WORST ANIMATION I HAVE SEEN IN MY LIFE IS the obscure animated German Christmas movie, Rudi Rotnase (Rudy Red-Nose) the animation is so bad, it makes 12 Oz. Mouse look like DaVinci.

and whatever the hell these are


I am glad I am not the only one who finds the new Ralph’s mascots terrifying! Look at these things, they look like molten Lego figures!! They need new more, appealing mascots!

Basically a simple cute design character and an overly detailed biblically accurate celebrity in animated shows.

Take a look.
OH MY GOD I HATE THAT


If you hate that, look at Buster’s dad, https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/p__/images/4/40/2506DF5F-724B-4602-B4A9-E4CDF3BEC77A.png/revision/latest?cb=20190601042249&path-prefix=protagonist. Like, WHO THOUGHT THAT WAS OKAY?!!! 🤮

Are you talking about the gross close-ups? I hate them too!! You need a barf bag handy when they come up.

Is it because it’s by the same guy who made Sanjay and Craig, a bad cartoon. Well, at least BB is good but the animation style is…. interesting. You should watch the brunch episode if you don’t like the animation style, you can see how a variety of different animators would’ve made the show.
