Part of it is the constant repetition of his catch-phrase "This I command!", I was tired of it after two episodes. CC was entertaining, Serpentor was grating. He felt like an unnecessary addition to me.

Serpentor acts as a field general and leads the troops into battle. Cobra Commander usually sits back at base and deals with the grand strategy.

Cobra Commander. I have him command all but the most mundane of requests in Cobra. If a tank commander needs to move tanks, it must go through Cobra Commander first.
Cobra Command uses a very convoluted structure loosely based on how the Nazis operated. The Crimson Twins handle the Crimson Guards along with four Crimson tank units. However the Cobra Navy and Air fleet have two separate commanders (Barnoness and Zarana) and do not answer to the Crimson Twins. The Cobra Vipers are a separate section that fight alongside the standard Cobra Troopers, they answer to Destro who in turn has to answer to Cobra Commander. The Vipers and CTs also have 6 tank units split between the two of them. Destro has no control over the Cobra youth division, who are headed by Serpentor. Cobra's scientific division V.E.N.O.M. is headed by Miles Mayhem, who also answers to Cobra Commander when making decisions. Every decision has to go through Cobra Commander, and this is his downfall. No one other than Cobra Commander can really do anything without permission nor does anyone besides CC have any true control.

Serpentor was designed by Hasbro to fill what they mistakenly thought was a need to fill. It would be like trying to replace Darth Vader. Serpentor was not well received by Larry Hama either, when he was told to kill off Cobra Commander (so the story goes) He said it was a mistake. Serpentor opened the door to wilder more crazy characters like Dr Mindbender, Crystal Ball, Raptor, Croc Master etc. Up until that point things were still kept to a more militaristic theme. Two organizations with militaristic themes. Those that were attracted to those themes were suddenly faced with this science fiction/horror movie creation. If Hasbro had said Serpentor was Cobra Commander just a new uniform, would the reception been different? Perhaps. The new character that was suddenly supposed to replace Cobra Commander (who was still alive and could not be killed after all these were kid's toys and cartoons) was not written into the story very well. It depends on if you like the more scifi aspects of Joe or the militaristic ones.
