He ruined All Stars. He's offensive af. He's a mockery of MPD. He's boring. Without his personalities he's as bland as stale bread and with them he's a slap in the face to those with actual MPD. He's a screenhog. He's a godplayer. He's a shameless plug for Cory Doran's voice acting abilities. The reset button. He reduces Zoey's character to a needy, whiny, codependant sue when she could possibly be a really good character, but can't since Mike exists. Demonizing MPD. He promoted self harm. He's trying to make mental dissabilities look "cool" to kids. Everything he does is not how things work in real life, and since he's basically representing a real life and very serious mental dissorder, the writers should have put a TAD of effort into portraying him correctly, but instead use him for multiple gags. No, being a cartoon does not excuse any of this. He's awful. He was a pathetic attempt to keep the "Cody fan" train going by being another bland guy with a gap tooth. All characters are dumbed down whenever they interact with him. He's never protrayed as doing anything wrong and any character in the show that tries to tell him otherwise is instantly painted as a "bad person" and is brutally punished for doing so. Zoke sucks. He just started liking Zoey for absolutely no reason whatsoever and as far as I can tell, he still has no legitimate reason. Zoke exists to fill the hetero quota. There is nothing special about their relationship, litteraly every other relationship in TD has at least had SOME common ground between the two characters, litteraly Mike and Zoey are both just considered "nice". Mike isn't a nice person. Mike spends 90% of his time thinking about, talking about, existing about Zoey. Same vice versa. Mike's hair is stupid. Mal is stupid. Mal only got to the finale because he godplayed. The writers dumbed down the ENTIRE cast of All Stars just to Mal could stupidly waltz to the finale with absolutely no tactics or solid gameplay whatsoever. He ruined All Stars. He almost ruined Revenge. Everything about Mike is awful.

He's also incredibly ugly.
