I only saw Episode 1 once, but I too remember feeling it was racially 
stereotypical but in a really vague ambiguous ways...

of course, I never really understood the 
Princes-in-a-metal-bikini-and-golden-leash-held-by-Jabba-the-Hutt 
plot element either.

Powerpuff girls is another one that uses racial/cultural stereotypes 
in its evil villans.  (Evil Monkey MoJoJoJo has a Japanese accent, 
for example.)
