Multiverse and Friends (seasons 9-12)


 * -|1="Multiverse and Friends was once a masterpiece. It had that charm of an adult sitcom with characters from kids shows, and it was well-executed. This caused the show to even attract younger audiences because their favorite characters appeared there. The show used to be clever and played safe when using these characters. Now, this charm is destroyed and all we have is a complete joke of an adult animated sitcom."

- PhantomStrider during this era.
 * -|2="This is an unwatchable season, and I'm not joking. This is something that should be seized by the FBI, because how could they allow such stuff like "A Private Date"?"

- RebelTaxi while reviewing season 11
 * -|3="This decline in quality is far worse than any other show that has experienced that. It makes Modern Family Guy and Modern SpongeBob look like masterpieces in comparison to this pile of garbage."

- WatchMojo, in their Another Top 10 Cartoons that went Bad
 * -|4="Welp, I'm surprised. I mean, I know the show would have gone downhill with all these seasons but I never thought it would stoop this low. I thought it would be like Rick and Morty's decline, but nope, instead we're getting shitty seasons that get shittier everytime they release, and to say I lost faith on this show would be an absolute understatement."

- Cartoonshi, on his video "The PAINFUL Decline of Multiverse and Friends"

'''NOTE: This is a fake show, so don't take it too seriously. It's based on my [https://web.archive.org/web/20220926171423/https://crappygames.miraheze.org/wiki/Blog:My_(probably_over-)ambitious_game_project. project] that I talked about on Crappy Games. Plus, you can edit it if you want and add whatever you want. In fact, you can add every character you want in the show and imagine your own episode for the show, especially for these seasons. But vandalism will not be tolerated. Whoever does that will be dealt with.'''

Multiverse and Friends is a 2020 show distributed by Warner Bros. It's based on the video game Multiverse. Like Teen Titans Go!, the show takes a more comedic approach to the Multiverse franchise and makes it an adult animated sitcom with various franchises, including the ones for kids. While the first eight seasons and season 13-18 were well-received, seasons 9-12 were near-universally panned by critics and audiences, and while the show did redeem itself, these seasons have gone down as one of the worst examples of seasonal rot and flanderization.

Seasons 1-10, 13-present
The show revolves around the characters from various IPs doing wacky and random stuff while also living in a house and they enjoy staying with each other.

Seasons 11 and 12
The crew decided to go on a summer vacation to Italy to have fun.

Overall

 * 1) The core problem is that these seasons clearly lack the charm and cleverness of the first eight seasons and seasons 13 onward. Also, the writing went from being clever, unique, amazing, funny, and serious sometimes to atrocious, catastrophic, lame, nonsensical, boring, stale, repetitive to the point it was nearly irredeemable. Even more shocking, the budget is more than 20 million dollars, with 120 writers who are perfectly capable of writing a great show and yet they come up with this stuff. To add insult to injury, plenty of the original writers that worked on several shows, games, and movies before, like Dana Terrace (The Owl House), Alex Hirsch (Inside Job and Gravity Falls), Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy) were hired to work on this show, and yet they still managed to ruin their respective works. Even worse is that, unlike other shows that encountered seasonal rot, where they give a small sign of decline in quality, the series didn't even show a small sign of decline in quality as everything was going fine!
 * 2) *Because of how horrible the writing is, it spawned multiple bad episodes, such as:
 * 3) **Friends Day (Which started the downfall of the whole series, started this era on a sour note, and is commonly considered to be one of the worst episodes of the entire show).
 * 4) **A Private Date (The worst episode of the entire show because it's just about Luz and Amity having sex and nothing else)
 * 5) **Why Not Rainbow? (A torture Rainbow Puppy episode, as well containing a cutaway gag that is nothing but the full 101 Dalmation Street intro).
 * 6) **A Festival Mess (The worst episode by critics).
 * 7) **A Simple Day (A basic episode with nothing interesting, as it consists of characters doing their life).
 * 8) **26 Minutes (a slow-paced episode that consists of characters doing random stuff).
 * 9) **An Italian Holiday (The episode when the show officially jumped the shark and started season 11 on a horrendous note).
 * 10) *Seasons 10 and 11 are not only considered the worst seasons of this era, but also the worst seasons of the show as a whole, as they sped up the seasonal rot, they barely have any good episodes, with season 11 having none of them, and also have some of the worst episodes in the entire show like A Private Date and A Festival Mess.
 * 11) **Season 11 is arguably the worst season in the entire show, as it doesn't even have a good episode, flanderizations were cranked up to eleven, filled with political propaganda to pander towards politics, and also had some of the worst episodes of the entire show such as A Private Date. It is also considered the season when the show officially jumped the shark.
 * 12) Quantity Over Quality: Despite being 2 years old, the show managed to span 15 seasons in a total of 376 episodes! While the show is still good despite this lifespan, it can sometimes jump the shark, especially in these seasons,
 * 13) These seasons either lazily rehash/recycle plots from older episodes or just straight up make dull and uninteresting premises, as usual to shows that encountered seasonal rot. However, Seth MacFarlane revealed that the staff had indeed brand new creative ideas for the seasons but Warner Bros. threw them out of the window in favor of Dorn Aduls's ideas (who never worked on the Multiverse franchise nor any other franchises that are in the show and he was just new to the industry), making it a case of executive meddling. Even worse, when these brand new creative good ideas are used, they were usually botched by new writers, as Warner Bros. just keeps choosing new writers for each episode. Here's a list of recycled plots, dull premises and good ideas that were botched.
 * 14) *Hell of Greed, while great, is a rehash of Season 3's episode Only Money, No Respect (which, by itself is a bad episode), but with Hunter being replaced by Lilith.
 * 15) *So Gullible is a rehash of Season 1's Don't Be Gullible, as the plot is literally identical to that episode.
 * 16) *26 Minutes is just a dull slow paced episode that has nothing interesting and just consists of characters doing random stuff.
 * 17) *A Simple Day is essentially a basic episode with nothing interesting and all the characters do is what would you expect from a typical episode from an adult animated sitcom.
 * 18) *An Italian Holiday had a fun premise of the crew going to Italy to spend the entire 2 seasons (Season 11 and 12) having fun, but the premiere itself was horribly botched as it became a torture episode for Luz and Amity.
 * 19) *It does not help the fact that like The Simpsons and Family Guy, these seasons tend to make episodes that are literally rating traps. A notable example is A Sad Funeral.
 * 20) Most of, if not, all the characters were flanderized to the point they became unlikeable and lacked the charm they once had.
 * 21) *Luz Noceda (The Owl House) went from a relatable girl with niche interests who cares about her friends and especially her girlfriend, Amity Blight, into a blatant Mary Sue who makes very sexist comments towards men and acts more like a homophobe than a bisexual girl.
 * 22) *Amity Blight (The Owl House) went from a girl who is overly ambitious and a perfectionist who cared about her friends, especially Luz, her girlfriend, into a character with her character development undone and became even worse her debut counterpart, as she became a stereotypical bully who bullies everyone who's around her, even her girlfriend. Like Patrick Star from seasons 6-8 of SpongeBob SquarePants, she also became a malicious selfish jerk who has little care toward everyone.
 * 23) *Eda Clawthorne (The Owl House) went from a snarky mentor to Luz who genuinely cares about her and later became more of a maternal figure to luz in TOH S2 into a carbon copy of modern Peter Griffin.
 * 24) *King Clawthorne (The Owl House) became more of a punching bag but has still done horrible actions such as forcing Chris and Martin Kratt to rob a store for his own benefit and harassing women. He was at his worst in A Festival Mess, as he was stalking Luz and Amity for no reason. Much like Meg Griffin and Lincoln Loud, he constantly gets unnecessary torture for the sake of laughs, to the point the audiences themselves called out the show for doing this. Thankfully, this was toned down in season 12, but his selfishness was still kept.
 * 25) *Lilith Clawthorne (The Owl House) became a carbon copy of Modern Lois Griffin, but 10 times worse, as she once punched a pregnant woman out of spite, mistreating Eda (HER SISTER!), forced Luz and Amity to do some cringeworthy TikTok trends, as well murdered 3 people, again, out of spite.
 * 26) *Gus Porter (The Owl House) went from a young and precocious witch who is known for veing excitable and enthusiastic into an egotistical jerk who treats everyone like trash and claims he's the best witch in the town.
 * 27) *Willow Park (The Owl House) went from a bubbly and friendly witch to an outright moronic witch whose only running gag was making unfunny jokes about feminism. The idea itself of Willow making unfunny jokes was already unfitting, as it could easily fit Luan Loud. Willow also became very selfish.
 * 28) *Alador Blight (The Owl House) went from a clumsy and easily distracted scientist who genuinely cares for his daughter Amity into a self-absorbed, pretentious, egotistical person who sacrifices everyone for his own benefits.
 * 29) *Chris and Martin Kratt (Wild Kratts) went from wild brothers who usually discover animals and fight tough ones but still caring towards and protecting them from evil forces that want to kill animals for their own gain into animal abusers who have little care towards the animals.
 * 30) *Lincoln Loud (The Loud House) has suffered from an even worse flanderization from his already flanderized counterpart in the original show, as he became a jerk who cares about nobody and doesn't get any comeuppance, making him a Karma Houdini.
 * 31) *All the Loud sisters and parents were removed for unknown reasons.
 * 32) *Ronnie Anne Santiago (The Loud House and The Casagrandes) went from a compassionate and forgiving person who cares about other people into a stereotypical mean bully who just hurts everyone who's in front of her and EVEN KILLED SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THAT!
 * 33) *Clyde McBride (The Loud House) went from Lincoln's best friend who is intelligent beyond his years to a brainless boy whose intelligence can be compared to Lloyd and Harry from Dumb and Dumber.
 * 34) *Rusty (The Loud House) was reverted to his flanderized personality from the original show into a stupid and selfish boy who does good deeds for his own benefits.
 * 35) *Carlos "CJ" Casagrande Jr. (The Loud House and The Casagrandes) was flanderized into a kid with the mentality of a 2-year-old despite being 13 year old and became a whiny brat who's often ungrateful of the presents they give him.
 * 36) *Peter Griffin (Family Guy) suffered from an even worse flanderization from his already flanderized counterpart as he became a mentally disabled manchild who destroys everything in front of him and kills everyone in front of him and always gets away scot-free, making him a Karma Houdini). Like his already flanderized counterpart, he constantly cheats on Lois with other women.
 * 37) *Rainbow Puppy (Blue's Clues) went from a harmless pop singer who would usually put on a show for her fans to enjoy into a sort of political pandering monster who would usually try to put cancel culture and everything she doesn't like.
 * 38) *The Winx (Winx Club) became a huge joke of feminism, as they became just pandering girls. To add insult to injury, they lean into radical feminism, whereas in the first eight seasons and season 13 onwards, they remained neutral. They're also very selfish.
 * 39) *Hilda went from a fearless adventurous girl who is a decent role model to the kids who is very loyal to her friends and her mother into a tiny plot device that is only used for several plot elements. She also acts like a coward.
 * 40) *Anne Boonchuy (Amphibia) had her character development completely undone and became an absolute joke of a female protagonist, as she became a selfish pandering girl who likes to use modern stuff to be "hip and cool" with the audience, even though the target audience for this show isn't even for kids.
 * 41) The show tends to shove unnecessary political stuff. While most of it is satire, some of them are propaganda that just shows political correctness right in the face. A great example is the Winx group, who became nothing more than a huge joke of radical feminism.
 * 42) The humor was downgraded from funny, hilarious, clever, and amazing to downright stupid, mean-spirited, lame, bizarre, and nonsensical. The humor ranges from questionable to outright offensive and disgusting.
 * 43) *The jokes are often over-reliant to pop culture references and while it makes sense for a modern show like this, since it's also supposed to be satire, some references blatantly try to be "hip and cool" with the audience, but this show fails even more with that because not only stuff like this usually get outdated, but the target audience for this show isn't even for kids, making the writers absolutely ignorant. Because of this, many people joke about the staff not knowing that their show is not for kids.
 * 44) Due to budget restraints during this era, Warner Bros. forced the animation studio to change the animation from Toon Boom Harmony to Flash. As a result, the animation looks horrible and stiff, and the character designs look ugly and stilted, despite being animated by Nelvana, which is known for providing great shows (aside from a certain atrocious reboot).
 * 45) *Season 9 has by far the worst animation in the entire show, due to lifeless emotions, static designs, and very stilted movements that are ugly, even for Flash standards.
 * 46) While the first eight seasons and season 13 onwards tend to have gore, they never go too far, as they usually limit to just killing or some non-fatal injuries. But in these seasons, the gore was cranked up to eleven. It's so disturbing that it wouldn't look out of place in an exploitation movie or even video games like People Playground. And there are many examples, such as:
 * 47) *When Chris and Martin killed a cashier with 90 bullets when robbing a shop for King, they show his body bleeding. And the main reason why it's disgusting it's because the holes are very detailed.
 * 48) *The infamous scene where a drunk man with a shotgun just shot Lilith's head, showing her skull in "Sunny Day".
 * 49) *A 30-second compilation with happy music showing the death of several characters (whether they are antagonists or protagonists) and their bodies in "The Mafia War".
 * 50) *The episode "The Lab of Death", which serves as an inspiration for the videogame People Playground, is notorious for being torture porn for several characters (Luz, Amity, Lilith, King, Chris, Martin, Peter, Hilda), as they were constantly killed or injured in brutal ways that are very disturbing, even for its target audience, such as Luz pending herself with a cable around her neck, a car crushing Lilith, showing her broken bones and lot of bleeding, Hilda getting hurt with an acid syringe, all of them in a truck that would later crash on explosions, Peter drowning and other malicious stuff happening.
 * 51) Continuity is just non-existent. While other seasons tend to have continuity errors, these seasons have it completely thrown out of the window, due to botched writing. Some examples include:
 * 52) *Lilith once told other people that she never worked with a villain, even though she once worked with Belos, the main villain of The Owl House.
 * 53) *King claims that he's not a really important person, despite the fact that in The Owl House, he was revealed to be a Titan, a colossal, humanoid being whose remains form the Boiling Isles.
 * 54) The plots are severely downgraded from the first 8 seasons and become a lot more nonsensical and stupid, even for sitcom standards, due to these being overly mean-spirited and also having unfunny jokes. The plots can also be very dumb and have jokes that are extremely offensive (mentioned in WTSDHF #11). This was something that was sped up in season 11, due to the overuse of mean-spirited jokes, most notably with King Clawthorne, who is known for being a punching bag in these seasons.
 * 55) These seasons are extremely offensive and mock tragedies, much like South Park and Family Guy. Except, unlike South Park, which does it way better, these seasons do them in an unfunny taste to the point that some episodes were even banned. They also overuse jokes like handicap jokes, domestic violence jokes and suicide jokes, and wrist-slitting jokes. They're also very racist and homophobic. Numerous examples include:
 * 56) *Lucas Drein (a one-off character) insulted Christians, calling their religion an "evil cult" in "This is Lucas", which caused backlash and caused the episode to rarely air on television. However, it can still be found on streaming services.
 * 57) *Lilith once called people who commit suicide idiots because they want to kill themselves, which resulted in the episode getting lambasted and later caused Lilith to be hated by critics and audiences.
 * 58) *A random guy once called Osama Bin Laden (we're not joking) the greatest man in the world, despite the fact that he's responsible for the 9/11 attacks.
 * 59) *The scenes where Luz acts homophobic all contradict the fact that she's bisexual.
 * 60) *Much like Modern Family Guy, these seasons are also not afraid of making jokes about illegal stuff like suicide, school shooting, Neo-Nazism, and terrorism, among other controversial stuff.
 * 61) Speaking of awful jokes, these seasons don't know how to make jokes anymore, as they became comparable to Modern Family Guy.
 * 62) *Like Modern Family Guy, these seasons outright explain the jokes before the punchline is set up, which already ruins the purpose of the joke, something that even Joker said: If you have to explain a joke, there is no joke! This is because the writers are shallow enough to think the audience is brain-dead and don't know the jokes, which also contributes to the joke that they don't know the show is not for kids.
 * 63) *The seasons also overuse shock value, to the point it was more creepy and disturbing than funny. It does not help the fact that these seasons already mock tragedies (as mentioned in WTSDHF #11), making these jokes already tasteless.
 * 64) It's clear that the writers (except writers who worked on the IPs included in the show and Fred Dungles) can't take criticism, as they often mock critics and audiences for criticizing the show. Episodes like Critics are Idiots are a great example of this, as this episode is about characters getting criticized and they decided to respond harshly to criticism.
 * 65) These seasons shove unnecessary shipping moments way too much. While shipping isn't a bad idea, and in fact, it could work, these were moments that were overused so much that it even beat Multiverse: The Fall of N.W.O. - Part One as the poster child of unnecessary romance. In fact, even shippers were tired of these moments being overused.
 * 66) *Lumity (Luz x Amity from The Owl House) is the worst offender, as the writers had a clear bias towards the ship and decided to make this ship the most overused couple of these seasons. It does not help the fact that the couple also got a lot of backlash after the infamous A Private Date.
 * 67) *Ronniecoln (Lincoln x Ronnie Anne from The Loud House) is also another worst offender, as it was another overused couple despite the fact that their relationship is platonic and while there is a chance that they get together, these seasons overused without them getting together, which comes of as trolling fans of this couple.
 * 68) While the voice acting is great, some characters' voices can be annoying, such as Lincoln's voice or Luz's voice, despite the fact that they're voiced by the same voice actors.
 * 69) While the show still has some mean-spirited vibes, these seasons took these vibes and cranked up to eleven, to the point these seasons became unwatchable because the writers thought it was a good idea to make multiple characters into punching bags.
 * 70) These seasons also tend to encourage morals that range from bad to horrible, such as:
 * 71) *Lying.
 * 72) *Committing suicide.
 * 73) *Framing others.
 * 74) *Cheating your partner.
 * 75) *Cheating when playing with others.
 * 76) *Being an idiot.
 * 77) *Cry to get problems solved.
 * 78) *Doing wrist slitting.
 * 79) *Being racist.
 * 80) *Being homophobic.
 * 81) *Breaking laws.
 * 82) *Breaking rules.
 * 83) *Be stubborn.
 * 84) *Play the victim card.
 * 85) Even though the show having a TV-14 rating was reasonable, these seasons don't deserve that rating due to the exaggerated gore, overuse of sex, and offensive jokes. These seasons could have been better rated TV-MA.
 * 86) Overall, these seasons destroyed the reputation of the entire show, even after it redeemed itself. While the show itself is still well-received since season 13, there are still people who hate this show because of seasons 9-12. It was to the point that many people considered the show as one of the worst cartoons of all time and one of, if not, the worst example of seasonal rot. To make matters worse, Adult Swim, like Cartoon Network with Teen Titans Go!, had the nuts of milking it all of its worth during this era, making the show a cash cow.

Final Seasons of Pre-Vacation era (seasons 9 & 10)

 * 1) To end an era that was considered the golden age of the show, was a pretty sour way to end it. Not to mention, the episode Shoplifting wasn't a big episode to be considered a finale of an era, as it was extremely basic, and its plot was awful.
 * 2) Terrible and ugly animation, with season 9 being the worst offender. Everyone lacks emotions, in a similar vein to Modern Family Guy and the movement is very stilted and awful.

Vacation era (seasons 11 & 12)

 * 1) The biggest point of this era was the concept itself: It had a lot of potentials to be well-executed and many people were pretty excited about the announcement of this idea, but it was sadly botched for various reasons.
 * 2) * The "jumping the shark" in An Italian Holiday already killed the potential of the concept.
 * 3) * In season 11, the show didn't explore Italy that much, as it had a lot of potentials, but it was underused, so much it was no different than an average season of Multiverse and Friends. You could have literally set it in the regular world and everything would have been the same. This was later changed in season 12, where it was expanded a lot.
 * 4) All flaws that were introduced in seasons 9 & 10 got worse in season 11.
 * 5) *The show no longer stays consistent with the jokes and they're told in the most lifeless way possible, due to the characters telling them like they're robots.
 * 6) *Even worse plots that range from cruel to outright disgusting and illegal, like A Private Date.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The show used to be good in the first eight seasons and has massively improved during seasons 13 to 18.
 * 2) Great voice acting despite some characters having annoying voices.
 * 3) There are still plenty of great episodes, but season 11 has sadly none of them, such as:
 * 4) *Faux News (an episode mocking Fox News and its conservative propaganda)
 * 5) *Hell of Greed (despite being a rehash of Season's 3 Only Money, No Respect)
 * 6) *A Special Gift
 * 7) *Weaboo or Anime Fan?
 * 8) *The Awful Firewall
 * 9) *SOPA is Soup
 * 10) *This Is Illegal
 * 11) *Political Mess
 * 12) *Operation: Rob a Bank (Part One and Two) (The only two good episodes of season 10)
 * 13) *A Typical One-Shot Short (An episode based on the one-shot shorts, and started season 12 on a high note).
 * 14) *TrashTok (An episode mocking TikTok)
 * 15) *Social Justice Warzone (A war between SJWs and Anti-SJWs, and teaches that everyone can be whatever they want).
 * 16) *A Memorable Performance (Which ended season 12 on a high note and saved the show from its downfall).
 * 17) While the animation is a huge downgrade, some episodes took advantage of the Flash animation, most notably the two-parter episode Operation: Rob a Bank.
 * 18) While all the characters were flanderized, they can occasionally return to their original personalities.
 * 19) Despite the atrocious decline, seasons 9 and 12 are considered the least bad:
 * 20) * Season 9 isn't as bad as other seasons. While it is considered the start of the downfall of the show, it still has plenty of good episodes, and some of them are beloved such as Faux News, Hell of Greed and A Special Gift. However, that doesn't say much due to the flaws this season introduced.
 * 21) * Season 12 is a slight improvement over seasons 10 and 11, as some of the characters reverted from their original personalities, the animation became more solid, and had some beloved episodes like "Social Justice Warzone" and "TrashTok". In addition, Italy was explored a lot compared to season 11. However, that doesn't say anything, as this season still has numerous flaws, such as other characters still being flanderized, exaggerated gore and there are still horrible episodes.
 * 22) It’s not as bad as the second downfall.

Reception
While the first eight seasons and season 13 onwards were well-received, seasons 9-12 were near-universally panned by critics, audiences, and fans of not only the Multiverse franchise but also of the IPs included in the show as well. Season 11 was considered the moment when the show has hitten rock bottom. It was to the point the show as a whole was considered to be one of the worst cartoons of all time. WatchMojo ranked n.1 on their "Another Top 10 Good Cartoons That Went Bad", stating that "This decline is quality is far worse than every other show we've ever seen". At one point, the Rotten Tomatoes scores went down because of these seasons. During these seasons, the critic score downgraded from 92% to 78%, before it would later eventually return to the previous score.

Season 9
Season 9 received a mixed-to-negative reception from critics but was negatively received by audiences and fans. It was criticized for the flanderization of several characters, bad cutaway jokes, atrocious writing, and other problems.

Season 10
Season 10 was negatively received by critics, audiences, and fans of the franchise. The season has a 14% critic score and a 19% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. The consensus states that "Multiverse and Friends just worsened the writing and it's doubtful that it will ever improve".

Season 11
Season 11 was universally panned by critics, audiences, and fans, to the point that Warner Bros. even received a lawsuit, mainly because of "A Private Date". IGN gave the season a 2/10, stating that "Season 11 is definitely when Multiverse and Friends has hitten all-time low, with clusterf*cks like "A Private Date" and "Why Not Rainbow?" clearly showing this". PhantomStrider ranked n.1 in his top 10 worst seasons of good shows, stating that "Multiverse and Friends once had a that charm of an adult sitcom that had kids shows characters in it that was well-executed and even attracted younger audiences, but this season destroyed this charm and made the entire series a complete joke". RebelTaxi said that in his review of the season that "it's an unwatchable season that should be seized by the FBI". The season has a 0% critic score and an 8% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. The consensus states that "Multiverse and Friends has become an illegal show thanks to the godawful writing".

Season 12
Season 12 received a mixed to negative reception from critics, audiences, and fans of the Multiverse franchise. The season has a 34% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 30% audience score. The consensus states that "Multiverse and Friends might have improved but it's still far from not being a clusterf**k."
