As Told by Ginger: Difference between revisions

* [[Enter Stage Window]]

* [[Evil Laugh]] - Miranda does this in "The Nurses' Strike," when she discovers Ginger's mom is working as a cleaning lady, effectively scaring a nearby family away.

** When Ginger sees her friends defecting to the other side in ''Battle of the Bands'':

{{quote| Et tu, Dodie? }}

* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]] - One episode, "The Right Stuff" involved a minor plot point in which girls from Courtney's and Macie's high-school French class try to expose her as a bra-stuffer at Macie's (unwanted) pool party. This later became [[Missing Episode|pulled from rotation]], however this statement was blurted in passing by Courtney's little brother Blake in the unaired pilot, which DID make it to a DVD.

** In another episode Ginger writes a fake love letter to Dodie from a secret admirer and, when writing, asks how to spell "voluptuous". Dodie is '''twelve'''.

* [[She Cleans Up Nicely|He Cleans Up Nicely]] - Darren upon getting his braces off.

* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]] - Carl and Hoodsey

** [[Tomoe Hanba]] dubbed Ginger in Japanese.

* [[Iconic Item]] - Darren only has his headgear in the first season, and they're off for the rest of the series. But they are still one of his most recognized features, and the opening credits stay the same throughout the show's run.

* [[Important Haircut]] - In the special "Foutleys on Ice" Ginger gets her hair straightened and given a blue streak to signify how much she's changed away from home.

* [[Jerkass]] - Miranda.

** Mipsy manages to be even worse. At least Miranda shows a few occasional moments of compassion. Mipsy shows nothing but cruelty towards her (except for that one time when she and the others needed her help and that was pragmatism.) She masterminded the plan to get Ginger set away (granted it was too a really prestigious boarding school but still.) she also spread nasty rumors during the time away and tried to break up the Darren relationship to make her more vulnerable (and there's the whole "defame the school statue.")

* [[The Pollyanna]] - Brandon Higsby, especially in relation to his monkey.

* [[Power Trio]] - Dodie is the Id, Macie is the Super-Ego and Ginger is the Ego.

* [[Race Lift]] - [[Word of God]] has it that Miranda was originally white, but they redesigned her as black to introduce more diversity to the cast.

** Can be seen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zEwzOU4-bQ in the pilot].

* [[Rich Bitch]] - Courtney, who's more of a [[The Brainless Beauty|Brainless Beauty]] so her bitchiness is not really mean spirited.

** Miranda is a straighter example.

* [[Screwed By the Network]] - Only ''half'' of Season 3 ever aired. At a 6am timeslot no less.

* [[Serenade Your Lover]] - Ginger confesses her crush on Sasha in the first Camp Caprice special by playing him a song she had written for him on the guitar.

** The pilot's since been uploaded [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zEwzOU4-bQ here] (though Darren looks more grey than white....).

* [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic]] - In-universe. Ginger wrote a poem about a girl who wants to fly and ends up vanishing. Everyone interprets it as a metaphor for suicidal thoughts, and asks her to get counseling for depression.
