Added DiffLines:

* ArcFatigue: One of the most criticized aspects of the show is how little focus the plot revolving around Roman and Riker there has been. The two were first introduced in the series premiere and were built up to be the big threat of the story. However, multiple standalone episodes took up the majority of Season 1, making fans lose interest in the main plot. It doesn't help that the two only physically reappeared in one episode and the series finale and that's pretty much it.

Added DiffLines:

* ShipMates: Kaz/Chase and Bree/Skyler shippers tend to get along great, due to it getting the potential straight pairings out of the way, with most fanfics about the show being dedicated to both groups dating. These fans also tend to ship Oliver with Adam [[ShipsThatPassInTheNight despite the two not interacting much]].

* AuthorsSavingThrow: Many fans felt cheated that the events of ''Mighty Med'''s Arcturion/Mr. Terror storyline were finished offscreen. The writers seemed to be aware of this copout, so they decided to continue the Arcturion Arc in the episode "The Rock", where it is a plot point.

* BrokenBase: The exclusion of Leo and Adam has has not gone well with more than a few fans.
** For a lot of fans, the show itself. Mighty Med not getting a proper ending except from a few sentences from Oliver, the lack of plot in the episodes and the lack of fan favourite characters are what turned a lot of long time fans of both shows off, which may have led to ratings falling and the subsequent cancellation of the series. While several ''Lab Rats'' characters, like Donald, Douglas, Perry, and Tasha made a few appearances on the show, the highly anticipated returns of Leo and Adam (presumably saved for special episodes) never materialized due to the show's short lifespan, and none of the Mighty Med cast returned besides Kaz, Oliver, and Skylar.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Roman and Riker have garnered a rather positive reception by most fans. The fact that they're portrayed by [[Film/{{Descendants}} Booboo Stewart]] and [[WesternAnimation/BigHero6 Ryan Potter]] was considered a bonus in addition to including the Mighty Med Cast.

For a lot of fans, the show itself. Mighty Med On the ''Mighty Med'' side of things, there's not getting a proper ending except from outside a few sentences from Oliver that imply most of their supporting cast died and the awkward characterization of Kaz, Oliver, and Skylar that implied the lack of plot in writing staff only had the episodes and the lack most basic knowledge of fan favourite characters are what turned a lot of long time fans of both shows off, which may have led to ratings falling and the subsequent cancellation of the series.

* MoralEventHorizon: Roman and Riker destroyed Mighty Med hospital because of Kaz and Oliver forcing their dad to live a life as a Normo in order to save his life. Such an act has killed not only a number Kaz and Oliver's superhero friends, but perhaps many innocent patients and doctors in Mighty Med. Even Douglas didn't do this kind of damage when he blew up Donald's lab.
* ReplacementScrappy: For fans who only watched Lab Rats, the Mighty Med side of the cast comes off as this, replacing fan favorite characters like Adam and Leo, it doesn't help Might Med was notably far less popular than Lab Rats, and less well received so to some it looks like this series was an attempt to make its characters more popular by riding on Lab Rat's coattails.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: In Mighty Med's finale, Oliver's mother, Bridget absorbed the Arcturion, gained numerous superpowers, and smacked around two of the strongest superheroes in Mighty Med's canon like they were nothing. Come the premiere of Elite Force, she is already locked up, having been defeated by Oliver, Kaz, and Skylar. Offscreen. Then again, Oliver using present participle when he said "off captur'''ing''' my mom" and future tense "'''will''' spend the rest of her life in prison" makes the situation extremely ambiguous. To compensate, the Arcturion Arc will continue in the ''Elite Force'' episode "The Rock", where it is a plot point again.
** On that note, the arturicon plot would've worked better if Leo was part of the show. Being only partially bionic, they could've made a "wanting to have more powers to feel more important to the team" storyline work better with him than with Bree.
