This show was my childhood, and maybe it's nostalgia but it still holds up well today, there's some childish humor but a lot of the jokes genuinely made me laugh hysterically, no idea why people were so hard on this show when it came out.
I think people hated this show originally because, especially during this time, cartoons like gravity falls and Steven universe were very popular, smarter shows with deeper stories and characters. So people wanted EVERY kids show to be that. But this show just wanted to be a dumb, surrealist comedy, and in that aspect it's amazing, you can just turn your brain off and laugh, that's what this show is for.
