Why These Seasons Suck

 * 1) The main problem with these seasons is that they lack the charm and cleverness of the first four seasons, and to lesser extents, the fifth and seventh seasons.
 * 2) * Out of these seasons, Season 9 is considered the worst of the bunch because they not only showed a lot of flanderization and had a few more issues than the rest of the bad seasons, but these seasons hold some of the all-time worst episodes of the series in general.
 * 3) There are so many problems with the characters, many whom are now flanderized beyond recognition to the point of becoming unlikable and lacking the charm they previously had
 * 4) * Ten in Seasons 8-11 suffers the worst flanderization and character derailment of all the Ten & Oggy characters, as he gone from a short-tempered, yet likable and comical dog who cares about his friends and will fight anyone that tried to hurt them to a malicious, monstrous, and incredibly cruel psychopath who does illegal and evil things in almost every episode and always gets away with it.
 * 5) *Oggy in Seasons 8-10 has gone from Ten’s sarcastic, yet loyal friend with a wild imagination and a mature mindset to an everyday punching bag who constantly gets abused and bullied by everyone despite not doing anything to deserve it. Worst of all, Oggy going through unnecessary abuse and torment is always used just for the sake and hopes of laughs and comedy, and it feels like the writers just wanted to express all their unjustified hatred towards him.
 * 6) ** He also became a massive yes-man who will always joins Ten’s antics without question, particularly in Season 9.
 * 7) ** However, unlike the other characters, he didn't experience a huge decline in character and would thankfully revert back to his original personality in Season 11.
 * 8) *Drew has gone from a somewhat crass yet strong and hilarious simpleton to a completely dimwitted character who rarely acts his age.
 * 9) * Cuddles went from a somewhat arrogant yet cute and helpful puppy to a despicable idiot who always mess things up and is extremely cruel to his friends.
 * 10) *The Kat in Seasons 8-10 went from a typical yet entertaining and clever villain whose bent on destroying all dogs so cats can rule the world to just an annoying, uninteresting, and idiotic villain who is used to be little more than filler or cheap attempt at comedy.
 * 11) *During Seasons 8-11, they often put too much focus on Ten And Oggy. While there are supposed to be the titular characters, the other seasons focused on other characters as well. In fact, there are even a handful of episodes in the classic era where Ten And Oggy are absent. However, they practically appear in almost every episode in these seasons whether they have a major or minor role.
 * 12) *These seasons also ruined the great chemistry of Paul and Cuddles as they would begin to treat each other like rivals and get into unnecessary arguments. While they were moments where they would argue and fight against each other in the previous seasons, it mostly felt understandable and didn't feel too hostile.
 * 13) *In Seasons 8-11 they would introduced a new character and then immediately just throws them aside with little to no character development. The most notable example is Kinny, a new dog that Oggy become friends with when Ten left.
 * 14) The flash animation in Seasons 8-10 are a pretty big downgrade of the series and has many problems that was never present in the first seven seasons and even Season 11.
 * 15) *The color scheme looks very washed out and unappealing.
 * 16) *The facial expressions are far too creepy, nightmarish, weird, odd-looking, and traumatizing for its targeted child audience.
 * 17) *Most of the imagery is just outright disgusting, graphic and disturbing for its targeted children audience, such as the infamous scene in the episode "A Few Little Problems,” where Ten and Oggy kills and eats a dead whale while using the skin as a napkin.
 * 18) *The backgrounds can look very unfinished in some aspects.
 * 19) *The characters movement and design are very stilted, limited, and off putting.
 * 20) *The lighting looks far too saturated which will most likely give people headaches.
 * 21) **Even before the switch to flash animation, the animation in Season 6 can suffer from these problems in episodes such as "The Journey" and "Crappy Land".
 * 22) The show also had a massive downgraded in the writing as it went from being creative and clever to being completely atrocious and nonsensical, almost to the point of irredeemably.
 * 23) * In fact, the writing has resulted in so many awful episodes from these seasons that there are too many to list, the most infamous examples include:
 * 24) ** “Ten Finds Help” (the worst episode of the series)
 * 25) ** “A Few Little Problems” (also counts as the worst)
 * 26) ** “Paul And Cuddles: Going To Asian”
 * 27) ** “Dog Shenanigans”
 * 28) ** “Ten Vs Santa Claus”
 * 29) ** “A Joke That’s Hard To Frown”
 * 30) ** “Oggy’s Playground”
 * 31) ** “Paul And Cuddles: Going To Jail”
 * 32) ** “Drew’s New Friends”
 * 33) ** “Crappy Land”
 * 34) ** “Dog Plus Kat Equals” (also counts as the worst)
 * 35) ** “The Balloon”
 * 36) ** "Ten's Yes Day"
 * 37) ** “A Doofus Job”
 * 38) ** “Desert Dogs”
 * 39) ** “Jealous Drew”
 * 40) ** “Cuddles Broken Leg”
 * 41) ** “The Journey”
 * 42) ** “Hey, Drew”
 * 43) ** “Ten’s Brother” (depending on your view)
 * 44) ** “SuperDrew” (which started Season 9 on a poor note)
 * 45) ** “Chili Surprise”
 * 46) ** “The Kat’s Day Off”
 * 47) *Most of the episodes are extremely repetitive, predictable and constantly reuse the same formula with “The Balloon” being the worst offender.
 * 48) *One of the main reasons why Ten And Oggy is so beloved by fans was the fact that back when the show was at hampered by network censorship restrictions it not only controlled its amount of gross-out and disturbing content, yet it encouraged the writers of Ten And Oggy at the time to be more creative and unique with their comedic gags and story executions. However. due to the success in ratings, this resulted to the show losing all of its creativity in favor of overuse of  gross-out and raunchy humor without any comedic timing.
 * 49) There is also a tons of problems with the humor, jokes, and gags.
 * 50) *The humor, in general, is either disgusting, forced, repetitive, awkward, and mean-spirited. For example, jokes of animal abuse, torture, and terrorism are all present.
 * 51) *In Seasons 8-10, whenever Oggy is beating up, it’s not justified, too over the top, and overly mean-spirited, and the fact that this gag is used throughout these seasons, makes it even more frustrating whenever someone beats up on poor Oggy. This would become much more apparent in Season 9 as it is home for some of the worst examples of Oggy torture episode. Seasons 6, 7, and 11 also had the same problem but to a lesser extent then said seasons.
 * 52) *There are also a lot of terrible fart and toilet jokes that was rarely seen in the previous seasons like Ten and Oggy continually farting after eating chili in the episode, “Chili Surprise.”
 * 53) *In Seasons 8-11, it tries way too hard to be hip and cool with the kids, such as having the characters mentioned rappers such as Snoop Dogg, which feels quite out of place since the previous seasons rarely tried to be hip and cool with the kids without trying to be its own style.
 * 54) Mediocre and confusing soundtracks and sound effects in Seasons 8-11. For example, when Ten And Oggy sawing a log  in the episode, “Home Ahoy,”it sounds more like an angry woman than a log being sawed.
 * 55) The voice acting, while just as good as the other seasons, can get annoying due to some of the voice actors mostly screaming their lines.
 * 56) Though contradiction of continuity is present in the series in general, a number of this era's episodes contradict continuity from the previous seasons way too much all for the sake of plot contrivance.
 * 57) These seasons sometimes incorporate things like sci-fi elements that feels very out of place for this show.
 * 58) These seasons encourages the following:
 * 59) *Bullying
 * 60) *Violence
 * 61) *Lying
 * 62) *Breaking the rules
 * 63) *Framing people
 * 64) *Victimizing yourself
 * 65) *Committing crimes
 * 66) *Cheating
 * 67) *Starting drama
 * 68) *Acting like a jerk
 * 69) *Not learning from your mistakes
 * 70) *Doing whatever you want
 * 71) *Being stubborn
 * 72) *Not listening
 * 73) *Not using common sense
 * 74) *Having a bad attitude
 * 75) The writers cannot even handle even the slightest form of criticism whatsoever, going as far as purposely making episodes specifically to mock either the criticism they get or critics, Internet reviewers, and even fans of the the first five seasons of Ten And Oggy.

Reception
While the first four seasons (1990-2000) were well-received and the fifth and seventh seasons (2001-2003, 2005) had mixed to positive reception, Season 6 (2003-2005) received mainly mixed to negative reception and Seasons 8-11 (2006-2009) received mainly negative reception and caused the series to undergo a massive seasonal rot for a variety of reasons.

Season 6
Season 6 (2003-2005) received mixed to negative reviews from both fans and critics who criticized this season for its mediocre writing, more showing of flanderization, weak humor, and more bad episodes including “Crappy Land,” “The Journey,” and most infamously, “Ten Vs Santa Claus.”

Seasons 8-11
Seasons 8-11 (2006-2009) were universally panned by fans and critics who hated these seasons for major flanderization of characters, terrible flash animation in Seasons 8-10, bad morals and plenty of bad episodes like "Ten Finds Help”. There were a few episodes met with critical praise, but not that many due to the latter putting the show down that time.
