I have read the reviews for this show, and most of them are complaints of the animation. What these people don't realize is that Monster by Mistake is one of the world's first fully CGI animated TV shows, meaning that it ,of course, won't have greatly advanced animation by today's standards. Back in 1996, fully computer animated shows were revolutionary, and these people need to realize that at the time, they didn't have the advanced technology they have today. If it wasn't for shows like Monster by Mistake and Reboot, The US would have not at all or been late to create it's popular CGI shows today, such as Jimmy Neutron and Penguins of Madagascar. Yes show's plot is kind of lame, but this show is not just about a boy sneezing and turning into a monster. It is about a boy who has had this curse put on him by some douche wizard, and he learned to use this curse to help him solve mysteries. This sends a great message of optimism and always trying to make the the best out of a bad situation. This is exactly what the protagonist did.
