Bad Qualities

1. They were the company responsible for creating some of the most hated adult animated series of all time. Such as Allen Gregory, Brickleberry, Bordertown, Legends of Chamberlain Heights, Paradise PD, Hoops, The Prince, to name a few.
2. The art style of most of their cartoons is either very bland, incredibly ugly, or both. They are also infamous for their cheap-looking animation style. Legends of Chamberlain Heights and The Prince are the worst offenders here.
3. A lot of their worst programs try way too hard to be edgy and vulgar with heavy use of foul language and shock humor, with Hoops and Paradise PD being the worst offenders of this.
   • Also, many of the company's animated productions are raunchy comedies with jokes about sex, drugs, and violence.
4. Stiff animation in most of their cartoons. 90% of the time, character models just stand up or sit down motionless apart from their lips.
5. Most of their productions are the same thing with the only difference being the setting.
6. The logo looks annoying at worst.

Good Qualities

1. They did produce a handful of good shows like Bob's Burgers, Central Park, Duncanville, The Great North, The Awesomes, Out There, Lazor Wulf, Neighbours From Hell (do not confuse the 2003 game of the same name) (which started their career on a high note), Glove And Boots, Wolfboy and the Everything Factory, Smiling Friends, Saturday Morning All Star Hits!, and Hazbin Hotel.
2. Their animation for Smiling Friends is a huge step up from their previous works due to how the animation in that show has worked in several ways, including using stop motion and CGI. The same also goes for their work in Hazbin Hotel.
3. They did create some fun animations that typically mess with their logo, and post them on the Internet. Here is an example.
