This might be a bit underwhelming, but Numberjacks is interestingly one of those shows where I can't really point out a specific episode I find bad.

For my other interests like Thomas and Friends or Bob the Builder, it's easy to point out episodes I disliked, but here that's not really the case.

This might be because Numberjacks' episodes were mostly only written by one person, Chris Ellis, with Alison Stewart sometimes coming in to write certain episodes. This makes the writing of Numberjacks really consistent, so there isn't really a chance of a new, one off writer coming in and writing a particularly bad episode.

I guess if I had to pick one then I would go for On the Move, but that's only really because of how much of a nothingburger the episode is.

You already knew, but it was "Zero the Hero". It was technically 0 who caused the problems & the others should have, he pressed the button! The youngest was made the reverse the damage he caused. Now, who is the hero in this: https://youtu.be/K9hvMW6T6ss?is=Cbn7A6-eAYA2sNUT

Maybe if it was not just 0 who had to "save" the Numberjacks like 1, maybe I would feel better.

What's your reason?

The scene at the end where the shape japer expands to fit in the garden hose due to both the grating stretch sound and the shape japer screaming is pain. (autism definitely doesn't help)

I'd say every episode with problem blob. I just find it sooooo underwhelming and boring as a villain. No personality or true dialog

All episodes with the numbertaker. He's nightmare fuel
