[edit] Why Lazlo Was His Name O
- The animation is solid and fluid thanks to Rough Draft Studios.
- Likable characters, including Lazlo, Raj and Clam.
- It borrows elements from Rocko's Modern Life and SpongeBob SquarePants, in fact, Joe Murray created the former show.
- Good morals and lessons.
- Good voice talents from Carlos Alazraqui, Jeff Bennett, Tom Kenny, Mr. Lawrence, and Jodi Benson.
- Catchy theme song and music themes.
- It featured heartwarming moments.
- Characters like Slinkman, Patsy Smiles, and Commander Hoo-Ha can be very funny and entertaining to watch.
- It featured an hour-long TV special Camp Lazlo: Where's Lazlo?, which is a prequel to the show, and aged so good.
- While the last episode was mean-spirited, the series proudly ends, with Lumpus getting arrested for messing up the joy and goodness of Camp Kidney.
- Had a handful of great episodes such as "Gone Fishing(Sort Of)", "Boxing Edward", "7 Deadly Sandwiches", "Swimming Buddy", "I've Never Bean On The Map/ Harold and Raj", "Tusk Wizard", "Snow Beans/ Irreconcilable Dungfrences", "The Nothing Club", "Bearly A Vacation", "Strange Trout From Outer Space/ Cheese Orbs", "Lazlo's First Crush", and "Oh Brother, Who Art Thou?".
[edit] Bad Qualities
- Scoutmaster Lumpus (its main villain), Ms Mucus, Gretchen, and Edward can be unlikable characters at times.
- Some bad episodes here and there such as "Samson Needs a Hug", "Living La Vida Lumpus", "Burpless Bean", "Mascot Madness", "Dirt Nappers", "Dosey Doe", "Camper's All Pull Pants", "It's No Picnic", "Camp Kidney Stinks", "S is for Crazy", "Bad Luck Be A Camper Tonight" and "Lumpus' Last Stand" (the series finale).
- Similar to Rocko's Modern Life, some of the humor can feel a bit too juvenile.
- Some plots were stupid, like the episode that revolves around Lazlo having to go pee really badly only for all the bathrooms to be occupied.
- There was a couple of weird episodes as well such as "Camper's All Pull Pants", "Hello Dolly", "A Job Well Dung", "Scoop Of The Century" and "The Engagement".
- While the show itself is enjoyable the episodes that don't feature Lazlo can be boring and uncomfortable to watch at times.
[edit] Trivia
- This was the first show Regular Show creator J. G. Quintel ever worked on.
- Edward and Scoutmaster Lumpus were Joe Murray's favorite characters to write for because of how fun they are.
- Thurop Van Orman, who was first the writer of The Powerpuff Girls (1998) is also the writer of this show.
