If you look at any post about it on social media, almost all of the comments will be complaining about Alpha Pig being removed.

Hit 'save' too soon. Anyway, most people seem to like Woofster.


* SeasonalRot: The third and final season is usually regarded as the worst. This can be attributed to the animation downgrade and that they didn't go into fairytales anymore (most of the books they went into were original).



* TheyChangedItNowItSucks:
** The addition of [[TeamPet Woofster]] to the team may count to a few fans.

* SweetnessAversion: Even considering that the target audience is little kids, this show suffers pretty harsh pushback for this. While somewhat expected with its fairy tale aesthetics, conflict-free storytelling and cutesy designs, more often the not the complaints come from how they {{Bowlderize}} the original fairy tales to have the most safe and boring resolution possible. While it makes sense to do that relative to some of the source material, some will say they manage to sanitize the already sanitized version of the story, resulting in an edge less cutesy overload that can cause some parents’ eyes to roll.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley: The characters, including the Super Readers, can come off as quite uncanny to some viewers, likely due to their eyes not blinking for a while, and in the case of the latter, how the Super Readers suddenly come into the screen at the end of some stories.
