Why It Ain't Hip or Cool

 * 1) It repeatedly tries to be hip and cool by making characters do slang dabs and Fortnite dances.
 * 2) The show is can be seen as a ripoff of Regular show, And So Not Worth It
 * 3) *Speaking of Regular Show, the show bears many similarities to that show, that they are mentioned in WIS#3 and WIS#4.
 * 4) *This show is also seen as a ripoff of So Not Worth It, as it revolves around a group of students with different multicultural backgrounds, The only difference being that the aforementioned show is Set in Seoul, while Too hip and cool for you is set in the Bronx.
 * 5) **Ironically, Nicha Yontararak, the actor portraying may, has also portrayed Minnie in So not worth it
 * 6) Tons of unlikable characters, with several examples including:
 * 7) *The main duo Jake and Tom are your typical guys trying to be cool.
 * 8) *The landlord Ted is the most unlikable character as he repeats the line "Or you're evicted!" over and over again.
 * 9) **This is also a ripoff of Benson's quote, "Or you're fired!".
 * 10) *Brayden is a stereotypical "muscle man who bullies and insults the main protagonists".
 * 11) *Leah, despite being likable, is a stereotypical black woman.
 * 12) *Mayumi is the foreign exchange student from Japan, and the new one at school that is nothing more than a Mary Sue, because she likes to help the main characters, and is always a good girl. She can also count as a butt-monkey, due to being portrayed in a bad light compared to the others. She also services as nothing but a love interest for Tom.
 * 13) *Valencia is a typical Mean Popular girl that likes to roast the main characters for no reason at all, she also says a lot of insults towards the characters.
 * 14) *May is Valencia’s best friend and slave from Thailand that likes to help her roast the main characters.
 * 15) *Matthew is the “Smarty pants with glasses” who also makes unfunny jokes, and he is only used as a Comic relief.
 * 16) *Leo is the DJ that likes playing music that is mostly Hip hop and/or Rap.
 * 17) *Anastasia is the tomboy that loves Sports, and playing video games, and she thinks that ”Hip and Cool” stuff is more important than her family.
 * 18) Overuse of toilet/gross-out humor.
 * 19) Obnoxious theme song that just repeats the name of the show 14 times, similar to The Nutshack’s theme song.
 * 20) The jokes in this show are unfunny and mostly repetitive. Some examples include:
 * 21) *Jake and Tom (among with Mayumi (In one episode)) doing Fortnite dances.
 * 22) *Tom and Mayumi flirting.
 * 23) *the ongoing gag with Valencia and May Making the “You are an Idiot” joke.
 * 24) *Anastasia wearing a shirt that says "This is the life of Pi!" And even tells Roxie what the shirt says.
 * 25) **Speaking of which, her name is not Pi, her name is Anastasia. (As already mentioned) Heck, Even Roxie Was Aware Of This!
 * 26) *Valencia saying "You’re nasty, disgusting, gross, disgraceful, Soulless, Dumb, Stupid, Crappy, Useless, and you smelled like you farted" every time May disagrees And/Or ignores. (Even though it can be funny depending on who you ask)
 * 27) It had a cringeworthy crossover with Tyler Perry's Young Dylan, which wasn't any better than this.
 * 28) It had painful lines like the infamous "GET THEM, MAGIC ZERO!" Meme from the episode Fancy Dinner.
 * 29) There is an entire episode dedicated to twerking, called Valencia’s Ultimate Twerking Challenge!, in a kids’ show!'
 * 30) *In fact, that episode was so controversial, that the episode got reworked to Valencia’s Ultimate Dancing Challenge! in future airings, and in the versions of the episodes in the Hulu and Paramount+ versions. The episode (both the original and reworked versions) was also banned in its entirety in certain countries such as Russia, Malaysia, China, and Israel.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Some likable characters such as Leah, Roxie, and the jury in Cool Respect (although as mentioned above, Leah is a stereotypical black woman).
 * 2) *Speaking of Roxie, she was a original character for the show’s time, as she is a perfect representative for characters that don’t get into “Hip and Cool” Stuff, not only that, but she is one of the only Kazakh characters in children’s television, which is very rare, due to Kazakh people having very little representation in television.
 * 3) Some surprisingly good episodes, like Road To Yolo.
 * 4) The show improves in Season 2.
 * 5) Some songs can be really catchy, such as "The Wrong Thing" in the episode May’s Birthday.
