"KELSEY IS DESPICABLE FOR KILLING ALL OF HER BIRDS!!!" "CRAIG WAS SO MEAN TO JASON, AND FOR WHAT??"
God forbid LITERAL kids from growing and learning.
Same, I don't like it when the fandom passes the characters off as "evil" or something like that, ppl mainly call Eliza that but just in general.
Also for the Kelsey one, it reminds me of when kids would look after the class pet but end up killing it by accident (cough cough Brianna from Dork Diaries). Kids don't understand responsibilities that big unfortunately and they usually end up screwing up, hopefully their mistake gives them at example of what not to do when taking care of an animal.

Eliza's parents not being shown despite everyone else's (aside from the Stump Trio) having one or both parents (in Toman's case — extended family) appear feels very much like the crew couldn't care less about Eliza other than using her for unnecessary conflict because they ran out of ideas.
I can't help but agree tbh. I'm kinda bitter the crew put in the effort to include Bobby's parents when honestly, he's pretty useless to the show (and not very interesting) besides being the comic relief who thinks he's Craig's bestie. But exclude Eliza just for the sake of it, she's a lot more interesting to me. Eliza had a lot more potential to be more than just the pink mean girl who causes drama. They could've at least given us a family photo of them.

I’m neutral towards VanCraig. I think the concept of a kid who’s main schtick is bringing in various types of kids together and a kid who prefers animals over people is really fascinating. But it never feels truly acknowledged.
Also Cartoon Network videos promoting the ship over JpxManey and KelsxStacks feels like their forcing it which leaves a bad taste in my mouth. The fact that Wildernessa was on the CTFG poster spite having a limited presence only adds insult to injury. I can respect the creators not completely knowing what to do with er at first and then finally setting on something for her, the episode Breaking The Ice was pretty good but Puppy Love feels forced and unearned because Craig just likes her for NO APPARENT REASON other than she likes him. I can understand if he feels weird about this but he just flat out says he likes her back. Before someone says J.P and Maney didn’t have a massive build up as critic of my point I think that’s valid, but my counterpoint would be because that was done in the earlier stages of the show. We spent more time with them together than apart which makes up for the slightly rushed beginning of their relationship. A more reasonable comparison to this is Kelstacks, we spent episodes getting to see their dynamic unfold with hints of romance on both parties sprinkled in but not the main focus of said episode. And when we actually see it come to fruition, all the build up feels earned.
We had 2 seasons of Wildernessa being a bitch to Craig, after BTI it seemed like something special would develop but it feels bad because it only happened in 2 episodes. The finale of season 3 and Puppy Love. This unbalanced journey between them is the main reason why I’m not a fan of their relationship.
Unrelated note, theirs a clip of the worst ships consisting of CraigXEileen which seems really odd to me and almost feels like they put that in there just to make Craignessa seem good by comparison.
Marry me platonically, please

love teakeeper but wish more ppl would seperate them when talking abt one or the other🙏
So real.
No reddit users, George shouldn't ditch Eliza and Jane just that you can make George's personality being gay.

Not really a hot take but just an observation.
The fact that Wildernessa is in many poly ships, only excluding JP/Omar/Maney, kinda says a lot about how people view her relationship with Craig.
BRO WHY DID YOU NEED TO EXPOSE ME WHAT DID I DO TO YOU/nm
I'm a Wildernessa x Stacks x Kelsey and a Wildernessa x Beth shipper, I just like headcanoning her comphet. Also anon what other poly ships have you seen Vaneessa in? I'm curious. The only other one I've seen is Wildernessa x Jason x Craig and my own.

I simply don’t understand how anyone can like kelsey. Seriously? The girl who killed dozens of dozens of innocent birds? Its despicable and I genuinely hate how her fans fail to mention it? Like boowoo shes 9 okay? Learn some goddamn responsibility and take care of animals
I think the accidental bird deaths was a lack of maturity on her end, not excusing it, of course, but I'm not gonna expect much responsibility of a 9-10 year old. Ex: Toddler Gumball Watterson.
Neil running to the pet store to get another bird, only for the employee to tell him the last two flew away when they saw him enter.

I like omaya but my brain also just threw a lesbian HC at maya for whatever reason
I thought Omaya was okay (wrote for it a few times when people requested it) but lesbian Maya has my heart and always will.

I like George x Secret Keeper, HATE how some people (not all obviously) make them being a couple their only traits
SAY IT LOUDER AND PROUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!! (The subreddit)

My hot take is that the sleepover chronicles episodes were pretty boring (maybe except for the toman one)
The Toman one is my favorite. (Remind me to make something where his family appears)

I low-key wish they would've shown JP's dad. Like bro gets mentions but we've never seen at least a picture of him. I REALLY JUST WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE MERCERS-
I know bro is in Canada but it would've been cool if we got an episode where Jp goes right Canada to visit his dad. I would gave even appreciated him appearing in a photo or sm.

New rule: Do NOT use this blog/my inbox for donation begging. Your ask will be deleted. (Do not try being slick and putting it in my comments or sm you will blocked and your comment is getting deleted.)
Sorry that you need help, but I want to stay on topic, and this blog is for ppl's takes on Craig of the Creek, not a clarity show.
Welcome to Craig Of The Creek Hot Takes where you tell me and all of the fandom your unpopular opinions about Craig Of The Creek. I'll go first: Vancraig has got to be the worst mistake Craig Of The Creek made. There I said it, now it's your turn/nf
But firstttt we need to set some rules:
1. Just cause I post a take doesn't mean I agree with it. Ìf you disagree with a take I post, don't go to me about it.
2. Keep the takes about Craig Of The Creek only. Hot Takes about any other fandom will be ignored, stay on topic.
3. No nsfw takes. Slight mentions of sexual themes are fine but hot takes sexualizing the characters is a no.
4. No proships please
5.Do not attack other people just cause you disagree with their opinion. You can respond to others take and politely say how you don't agree and why but straight up bullying isn't allowed
6. This blog is run by one person, me (You can call me Arsonist :o) So posts might be a tad slow.
7. If I tag your take incorrectly please tell me so I can fix my mistake.
That's allll I may add or remove rules so take a look at this post before posting your take just to be sure.

BIG AGREE WITH THE OTHER PERSON WHO SAID THAT PEOPLE BABY GEORGE TOO MUCH!!!! I love love love all the Tea Timers so much, but it's important to remember that all three of them kinda suck! They make other kids fight for fun and all enjoy it (see literally their introductory episode). Does this make them horrible? No! They're eleven at the oldest! There is plenty of time for change and growth and all that. Could the girls treat George better? Yeah, but I think that's the least of the issues when it comes to them and morality.
I think it comes down to the lovely trend in fandoms where people love and forgive guys for pretty much anything but girls have to like "prove it" or whatever?? Idk that's a much bigger conversation, bottom line WE LOVE ALL THREE TEA TIMERS!!! THEY'RE SO FUN!!! WE LOVE GOOFY VILLAIN CHARACTERS!!!!
TEA TIMERS SLANDER IS NOT TOLERATED!!!
I feel like the George babying got worse after SK confessed to George, it literally got to point people wanted George to stop being friends with the Eliza and Jane all together and only spend time with SK.

The Tea Timers genuinely like each other. Despite how the fandom portrays them (specifically George and Eliza's dynamic), the Tea Timers do not have an unhealthy friendship.
Eliza is not forcing Jane and George to be mean. At the same time, Jane and George are not being friends with Eliza because they're scared.
The series shows time and time again how much the Tea Timers genuinely have fun together and yet the fandom treats their friendship as if they're faking it for appearances.
The demonization of Eliza isn't really making the fandom look any better either, as her personality is far more tame than how the fans describe it as.
As a Tea Timer lover, you have no idea how happy I am to read this.

Ppl who say they dont like George x Secret Keeper cause its not developed/came out of no where baffle me 😭 like no duh it’s underdeveloped its two background characters who we barely see anything of to begin with
Also not to mention? SK was shown mainly in like one other episode before Iron Fist (i think thats the episode name) and his ?? whole thing is being secretive OF COURSE we wouldnt know about his crush on George before the episode THATS THE POINT 😭😭😭
If you dont ship it i dont mind sorry if this sounds like aggressive or anything ship what you want dislike what you want those are just my thoughts on it
I recently lost interest in Bottled Blueberries. But I like your point on the Secret Keeper being secretive, so that's why we didn't know that they like each other.
However, I would have preferred for them to have some interactions prior to Silver Fist Returns, even if it was minor interactions. It's just a preference me and a lot of people have when it comes to canon ships, if the show wants to make a ship canon they have to show the characters interacting I hate when a ship just comes out the blue and we're expected to like it.
