Criticism and controversy
Despite the positive reviews the show had, the episode "The Worst Camping Trip Ever!" spawned a major controversy when it first aired, receiving many complaints from parents due to one scene where Peck and Unipuppy get punched by BigFoot in the forest, causing Unipuppy to say "you stupid s**t" but Peck grabbed Unipuppy's lips to silence him before he could say the last word entirely. One viewer said, "I'm just confused... I mean... how did they get away with adding that swear word in the episode? Sure, he didn't say the whole all the way, but it's still rather inappropriate for a show aimed at like 8-year olds." The episode still airs on Cartoon Network, but with the controversial scene being cut from the episode.
