Technically, nothing either show did is a retcon, since they had actual plot lines to explain the change in perspective or relevance on past events.

On Kevin's father, he would be born by having a different father who we simply don't hear about? The character of Devin Levin actually creates an irreversible plot hole: Max not knowing anything about Kevin in the original series. Or at least, I think so. I may be forgetting an explanation, but if there wasn't one, that's a pretty poorly conceived character right there. It's pretty cliche and lazy in general for Kevin's dad to have been a Plumber, and also have been killed so that Kevin can want vengeance or something.

I don't remember how the "past" parts of the Rooters thing went down, but if they didn't explain Ben and Gwen not recognizing the amalgam kids in AF, then yeah, derp move OV.

I can understand and somewhat sympathize with not getting satisfaction out of the show, but at the same time I don't really get any from UAF, what with things like Vilgax being some brutish, pushy king instead of a rampaging, unstoppable warlord, most of the designs after Alien X being ugly, and so on. So it's mostly opinion either way.

I'm mainly just tired of people acting like OV is factually awful.
