Austin & Ally is a sitcom that aired from December 2, 2011 to January 10, 2016.

Ally Dawson is an aspiring singer-songwriter with extreme stage fright who works at her father's instrument shop at the Mall of Miami. Austin Moon is an aspiring singer who visits the shop one day and ends up finding her "Inspiration Room" the same time Ally is working on her newest song. After unceremoniously kicking him out, she is shocked when a day later, her good friend Trish brings news that Austin has become an Instant Web Hit overnight ("Actually, it was more like two nights" Austin admits in an interview) but what really shocks her is the fact it happened with him singing her song.

After an episode's worth of misadventures trying to get Ally the credit she deserves, the two decide to combine forces. Ally writes the song, Austin sings it, Trish is Austin's manager and personal stylist, and Austin's friend Dez is their producer and music video maker.

Will Austin and Ally make it big? We'll have to watch and find out.


Tropes used in Austin & Ally include:

Austin: Then imagine you're at the beach.
Ally: Ugh! Sand's getting everywhere. Ew! Is that guy really wearing a thong?

Austin: These official record officials will be officially recording our official time...*Beat*...Officially!

Ally: The one I have upstairs is older than the lady I'm dating Sunday.

"Its my first day... And probably my last."

    • And by the time we see her again, she has another new part time job.
    • In "Bloggers & Butterflies", we learn that Trish got fired from her first job in Kindergarten because she didn't realize a hall monitor can't charge people to use the restroom. In other words, she's been doing this since she was 5.
    • Also in "Bloggers & Butterflies", Trish wants to support Ally, but she and Dez have to work. Dez points out that they could just ask for the night off, but Trish decides they need to get fired instead because it's just the way she does things.
    • In "World Records & Work Wreckers", Trish finds a job she is good at, but ends up quitting anyway.
    • In "Burglaries and Boobytraps", all the mall store owners are offering a reward for the capture of the burglar. Trish offers yarn (she's working at the yarn store) but says she'll probably get a job with better stuff to offer soon.
    • She manages to get a job at police station even after openly admitting that she doesn't do any actual work.
  • Woman Scorned: Ally, after she finds out that Austin read her book.
