 * 15) Even though Outfit7 is not what they used to be back in 2009-2017, this show still proves that they can make good shows.
 * 16) This show is a huge improvement over Talking Friends, as the animation improved, the character designs got better, & some of the characters became more tolerable.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Despite the show never going downhill, the characters were flanderized after Season 1:
 * 2) *Angela went from being a likable, cute, & playful cat to a overly bossy & nagging princessy cat who always bosses Tom around for no reason and makes him look like a prince.
 * 3) *Hank went from being an enjoyable, likable, & innocent dog to a jerky king-like dog who sides with Angela to make Tom look like their prince, & uses him as a punching bag.
 * 4) *Despite not being a flanderized character, Tom is used as a punching bag during the second season, as Hank & Angela treat him very unfairly in some episodes, like Master of Trash.
 * 5) **Tom's pets can also be unlikable, as they side with Angela & Hank & also use Tom as a punching bag.
 * 6) **Even before Season 2, the characters can still be unlikable.
 * 7) Episodes 1-11, while great, are not as good as Episodes 12-onwards, as Tom was the only character in the show, making it have a lack of characters.
 * 8) Some bad episodes.
 * 9) Some characters, such as Gina, Larry, Baby Hippo, Pierre, Dot, & Sugar are not seen in the show at all.

Reception
The show was met with positive to mixed reviews from fans & critics alike.
