YMMV / The ButterCream Gang

Go To

  • Accidental Innuendo: Apparently no one working on the film realized that the words "buttercream" and "buttercreamers" could easily interpreted as something really perverted.
  • Ho Yay: There's a lot of talk about Scott loving Pete.
  • Moment of Awesome: In The Buttercream Gang in Secret of Treasure Mountain, when Eldon manages to save Dr. Almoldovar's life despite great personal risk.
  • Narm:
    • Tons of it. Here's an example.
    • The title makes it sound like it could be a porno. Even worse is the fact that the titular gang calls themselves "Buttercreamers."
  • Tear Jerker: The less narmy stuff Pete does arguably qualifies when you consider that he and Scott used to be best friends. Pete finally rejecting Scott's attempting to repair their friendship is pretty narmy, but the act itself is pretty harsh.
  • Unintentional Period Piece: With references to Life Call'snote  "I've fallen and I can't get up" ads and the Diet Pepsi "You Got the Right One Baby, Uh Huh!" commercials featuring Ray Charles; the setting for The Buttercream Gang screams early 1990s; specifically roughly 1991-92.
