I don't. I mean, it's not my favorite, but I like the fact that it has a story. It's also funny, although, like any webcomic, it has some bad strips. Hopefully, this won't start any flaming. I'm genuinely interested in why people hate it so much. So far, I'm 80% sure that it's just :bandwagon:.
Because it's not funny.
He tried making a serious drama story but failed horribly and is overall not funny.
So I guess this falls under "to each, his own."
California Ass Detectives?
It started off as a kinda crap webcomic, but i sorta like it now, because I find the characters interesting. I dont need it to be funny.
The only funny part I find are the photoshops, especially the "replace last image with miscarrige panel," thing.

You can't have an abrupt serious story in a comic with wacky characters doing wacky things. It just doesn't work.

It does, like the guy above me said, look at Family Guy or the Simpsons, it's just Ctrl+alt+del did such a craptastic job of it that they automatically ruined themselves (not that they were much good before hand).
Family guy has never been serious.

It could be a class A camel-toe
Honestly, I got confused by the title and thought you were referring to the Computer-Aided Design thing.
Hah, just as I started reading teh CAD Mock Megathread over on SA.
Let's open up this can of worms, hmm?
Putting aside for a moment the issues of the comic having [I]incredibly[/I] shite art ([B]B^U[/B]), the really fucking stupid idea of having serious drama in a humorous gaming webcomic and the slobbering legions of Asperger's-riddled thirteen year olds who voluntarily lap up this shit every week, the horrible scheduling, the more-badly-animated-than-south-park animated series, misogyny and sexism in the comic itself...
The writer of the comic, Tim Buckley, is a [highlight]giant asshole.[/highlight]
He outright insults his fans.
Anyone who criticises his art, even constructively, is instantly banned from his forums.
At conventions where he signs his "art", he sits behind the desk and plays Xbox, waiting until 'the queue is long enough' to start.
He sent a picture of his dick to a 14-year-old girl he met online.
He experienced a miscarriage in a real relationship he was in, and stated that he was glad because the relationship was 'toxic' from the start.
He is outright sexist and in all probability beats his wife.
He threatened to sue a kid in high school because the kid wanted to use his characters for a school project - something that would be perfectly legal in all respects.
So yeah. It's a horrible horrible comic drawn and written by a gigantic sexist douchebag with a huge ego. :eng101:

When they did it they at least kept some of the humour and character when they did serious stuff. In CAD it just came out of nowhere.
oh also

Power-up comics is so much better.

tbh I really don't find those comics very funny.
The comic is shit, but the community on the forums there is pretty damn good.
Except when Tim posts.
