= Poochini's Yard =

Poochini's Yard is a animated tv show created by Dave Thomas, which originally aired globally in 2000, but did not debut in the United States until September 1, 2002.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Is mean-spirited toward Poochini, the dog of the family, in a lot of episodes is seen him being tormented by the family (notably Billy), which can be counted as animal abuse, the worst example being in the episode Dog Wanted, Doggie Day Afternoon and Hi-Class Hi-Jinx.
 * 2) The animation is quite cheap-looking, an example comes in some scenes that Poochini runs, which is reused a lot in the show.
 * 3) Terrible use of gross-out and toilet humor, to the point that it seems out of place for a kids cartoon.
 * 4) An example being in the episode Stray Dog, have a scene where the dog vomits and then eat it (thank god, it was off-screen).
 * 5) In Chilli Dog, there's a scene where Billy shits in the Dirt and Bunk dogs.
 * 6) In Smelly Dog, there's a scene where a dog seems to eat poop behind the bush, which makes her have a bad breath.
 * 7) Most of the characters of the show always are portrayed like idiots, as if there was no signal of intelligence here.
 * 8) The Characters and the protagonists of the show are all cliche.
 * 9) Poochini is the butt-monkey of the family.
 * 10) Billy is the troublemaker kid.
 * 11) Walter is the dumb father, he also can be a bad influence for his son.
 * 12) Wendy is the stereotypical sitcom mother.
 * 13) Speaking of Billy, he's one of worst characters of the show, since he always tortures Poochini, like in the episode "The Cone", which he buys a cone for Poochini, and use him for terrible things, like a cup to catch ice, or for making gelatin (with fishes in it), which is equivalent as animal abuse, like said in #BQ1.
 * 14) In the episode The Tail, he makes fun of Poochini just for have a tail, even though this is normal, since all dogs have tails.
 * 15) In Squeaky Fromage, he torments Poochini with the cheese toy, even though he showed he is scared of the toy until the end.
 * 16) In Peanut Butter, hé makes Poochini eating peanut butter, which makes his mouth sticky, and in the entire episode he tries to look for water to drink.
 * 17) In Dog Wanted, he puts Poochini in the dryer, and he is not punished for itt.
 * 18) Some episodes have disturbing or weird plots, like in the episode Bone Sweet Bone and Massive Hound.
 * 19) Mediocre voice acting, as if the voice actors were not interested in dubbing the show, even with talented ones, like Billy West.
 * 20) The humor of the show is just cheesy and generic, not only use toilet humor, as said in #BQ3, but sometimes, the jokes can take way too long, resulting in slow pacing, like the last two seasons of Dexter's Laboratory  and The Powerpuff Girls.
 * 21) In The Visitor teaches that it's ok to let a thief in the house, which is a dangerous moral to teach for the kids.
 * 22) Bad writing, thanks to the mean-spirited theme, and the use of toilet and gross-out humor, resulting in a lot of bad and/or mediocre episodes, like The Cone, Squaky Fromage, Peanut Butter, Doggie Day Afternoon, Hi Class Hi Jinx, Dog Wanted, Whitesylvania Forever, Born Again Dog, Poochersize, Vomitron, Puppy Obey (depending on your view) & etc.
 * 23) As said in #BQ3, It have some innapropriate, disgusting, disturbing and out-of-context moments, similar to The Wacky World of Tex Avery, The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy (Seasons 5-6), George of the Jungle and Scaredy Squirrel, which makes you question if this is show was made for kids or for adults.
