''Stickin' Around'' (1996-1998) is a {{cult|Classic}} Canadian animated show about two 9-year-old best friends Stacy Stickler and Bradley, who live adventures with their [[MrImagination hyperactive imaginations]], [[WunzaPlot whatever they might be]]. Their imagination-driven adventures are a way of dealing with the various everyday life scenarios that come their way. [[StylisticSuck The show is intentionally drawn crudely to simulate a young child's drawing]], and it actually looks very convincing.

No explanation for how Getting Crap Past The Radar applies here. It needs to be clear that this is a deliberate attempt by the creators to evade broadcast standards.


* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** Like a lot of cartoons from the 1990s. Especially made apparent with Bradley's [[UranusIsShowing catch phrase]].
** Another apparent one was in "If It Ain't Fixed, Break It", where Frank needs to go get "fixed". I think even kids who never heard of the term before would probably understand, with all the puppies running around.
** "Bet this would look good on Uranus!"
** Bradley says "This sucks!" in "Saturday Afternoon Fever" and "We're Outta Here!"[[note]]To make matters worse, those scenes were left intact when the show started airing in reruns on Qubo, which is mostly shows aimed at ''preschoolers''.[[/note]] But seeing as the show was originally made in Canada, kids' shows like this have gotten away with it.

* ProperlyParanoid: When Stacey, Bradley, Dil, Melody and Polly buy their weekly lottery ticket, they start picturing everything around them as Lance and Russell, including the garbageman and a trash can, an old lady and her dog, and the lights on the back of a car. As it turns out, the old lady and her dog ''really were'' Lance and Russell in disguise.

* {{Bowdlerise}}[=/=]EditedForSyndication: When the show aired on Fox Kids State-side, a lot of scenes had to be cut for time reasons. And oh ''freaking'' '''''boy''''', were there a lot of scenes cut. The intro sequence was also badly edited.

* SadistShow: There are a plethora of times where this show outright is just plain mean and nasty to secondary protagonist Bradley, even in terms of writing. Many of these episodes don't even seem written well enough to pull it off, or even have any good build up or sense of justification, even if it is a kid's sadist show. Local bullies Lance and Russell, though getting their fair share of punishment, seemingly only get it if they mess or get involved with events if Stacey steps in- Many extreme instances involve them either crawling into Bradley's room through his window even while he's sick just to give him a beating, loading him up into a trash can and dumping the entire thing into the public pool, and to where even the series' finale ends with a statue of Bradley receiving a wedgie by them. Granted, there are times where the cast are mean to each other, but a lot of them are portrayed as sympathetic and likeable, to where their faults are childish and out of naivety. Even Bradley's pettiness and self absorbed moments are plain harmless and it is just jarring and disproportionate to what big calamity awaits him for a small mistake, or how practically criminal Lance and Russell act. Hell, considering what kind of delinquency and extremes of bad behavior those two brats engage in, in reality with their reputation, they'd be the ones on the receiving ends, either on a short leash by the law or in juvenile hall.
