-All Hanna Barbera shows reuse the same character designs over and over again, limited to "the mom, the dad, teen boy, teen girl, kids, and the dog", and every male character over 30 has the same exact stubble and face. Best example, that spinoff show where Pebbles and Bam Bam were, uh, mystery solvers or something and their character designs looked exactly like all the other teens in literally every other HB show ever made, clashing comically with the adults' character designs.
-Looping backgrounds when running, cycled many times, even reused for later episodes.
-Poor quality control, if any.
-Too many HB shows in general, most were flops anyway.
-Too many "teen group solves mysteries with their quirky pet" shows
-Reused cels and backgrounds constantly, even with some shows reusing monsters' cels by painting over it a bit and adding wings or something.
-Highly derivative character design; something gets popular, so literally every other show makes their own knockoff version of that thing, usually much lower quality.
-95% of shows out back then were objectively garbage, usually some terrible excuse to sell toys or to cash in on some fad.
It works like the music industry, you look back and only remember the best of the best, so you assume everything was that good.
