  • Crosses the Line Twice: for the few people who don't dislike "Everyone Knows It's Bendy," Bloo's "Shaggy Dog" Story is funny, considering how much of a Jerkass Karma Houdini Bloo usually is.
  • Fandom Heresy: "Everyone Knows It's Bendy" was already very disliked upon its initial airing, mainly because of the plot being mostly driven by the characters acting like idiots or out-of-character, but has progressively gathered more and more hatred among fans of the series and even people outside of the fandom for just about every single aspect they can point out at the titular Bendy instead, to the point that they place him among the worst of their character/general opinions seemingly for the sake of getting some kicks. Any small mention or speech about the episode or Bendy being good in the slightest is guaranteed to get you pummeled with neverending, burning hatred. Its sister episode wasn't any better received, but would be overshadowed due to the backlash towards Bendy.
  • Fanon Discontinuity: Most fans don't consider the infamous "Everyone Knows It's Bendy" canon.
  • Never Live It Down: Bendy. While the premise of Bloo being stuck with another Jerkass was a good premise, a lot of fans have a problem with the idea of not just him, but his friends also being blamed, as it doesn't make sense for them to cause trouble.
  • The Scrappy: Bendy from "Everyone Knows It's Bendy" is an unusual example. While he is meant to be despised for framing Bloo, Wilt, Coco, and Eduardo for his wrongdoings, he ended up being even more hated than the creators wanted him to be due to not getting punished for it (Lauren Faust also hated the episode he appeared in as much as the fans did, so he never appeared again).
  • Signature Scene: The unraveling of Bloo’s plot against Bendy, albeit for negative reasons due to it being the climax of the most hated episode of the series.
