The popularity of this show perplexes me

Im French and I really dont get why this show is so popular. Ive watched several episodes when babysitting etc and it just seems incredibly bland/offensively stupid to me. The premise has been done a trillion times, and this iteration of it brings nothing new to the table, except some pretty nice looking 3D characters and abysmal everything else. I feel like this is a show I would have hated as a kid.
Id understand better if only kids like it, because kids sometimes like really dumb stuff or just stuff I don’t understand, but this show also seems to have a pretty large teenage/adult fan base as well.
Can someone explain the popularity of this show to me
