m (Mass update links)
Line 17:
* [[Break the Cutie]]: During the Nickelodeon Christmas special
* [[Cannot Spit It Out]]: Goes the entire series without being able to reveal his feelings towards Patti...until Patti asks Doug to go on a "date-date" with her, revealing her feelings.
* [[CaptainsCaptain's Log]]: His journal.
* [[Character Development]]: He becomes less shy in the Disney series and gets more of a backbone as the series goes on.
* [[Charlie Brown Baldness]]: Made odder by the fact that he needed to get a haircut in one episode, and in another episode, worried that he was going bald.
Line 49:
* [[Expy]]: Of [[Peanuts (Comic Strip)|Snoopy]].
* [[Hero With Bad Publicity]]: In "Doug's Christmas Story".
* [[Non -Human Sidekick]]
 
=== Mosquito "Skeeter" Valentine ===
Line 109:
* [[Cats Are Mean]]
* [[Morality Pet]]: As nasty as Roger can be there is no doubt about how much he loves his cat. Check out "Doug's Fat Cat" where Roger actually breaks down in ''tears'' when he thinks Stinky is sick.
* [[Right -Hand -Cat]]: To Roger
* [[Samus Is a Girl]]: Thought to be a boy until she had kittens.
* [[Your Tomcat Is Pregnant]]
Line 120:
* [[Bratty Teenage Daughter]]
* [[The Chick]]: Though she can occasionally be a [[Badass Normal]] too; the girl knows how to get what she wants.
* [[DaddysDaddy's Girl]]: At times.
* [[Fallen Princess]]: In the episode "Beebe Goes Broke".
* [[Fiery Redhead]]
Line 126:
* [[Lovable Alpha Bitch]]: Despite being filthy rich and her family owning the whole town, she's usually quite nice.
* [[Rich Bitch]]: When the plot calls for it.
* [[Rich in Dollars, Poor In Sense]]: At times, like in one episode where she doesn't even know what the term "broke" (as in, bankrupt) means.
* [[Spoiled Sweet]]: When not needed as a [[Rich Bitch]] in the plot.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Girly Girl to Patti's Tomboy.
Line 141:
* [[Cool Shades]]: Wears these all the time.
* [[Large Ham]]: Proud to put the "drama" in "drama queen".
* [[May -December Romance]]: Roger and Judy. Roger being 14/15,and Judy being 18!
* [[Nice Hat]]: Her beret.
* [[One Shot Character]]: Judy had a boyfriend named Kyle who left by the end of "Doug's Sister Act" and never came back!
Line 174:
=== Al and Moo Sleech ===
* [[Amazingly Embarrassing Parents]]: Played with. A lot of the kids think their dad's some sort of insane and amoral [[Mad Scientist]] that Al and Moo hardly try to deny, and in fact act afraid about any of the kids meeting him. However, when we meet the man he's... A donut maker. Granted he builds his own equipment, but hardly the sort who conducts 'strange experimentations.'
* [[May -December Romance]]: Both have crushes on Judy.
* [[The Smart Guy|The Smart Guys]]
 
Line 201:
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Whenever he's in a more villainous role (namely ''Doug's Christmas Story'' and the movie), he always turns around at the end and does the right thing.
* [[Hot Dad]]: Admit it!
* [[Knight Templar]] / [[Well -Intentioned Extremist]]: In "Doug's Christmas Story".
* [[Lantern Jaw of Justice]]: While the "Justice" part [[Corrupt Corporate Executive|varies]], he's got a pretty impressive chin.
* [[One Judge to Rule Them All]]: In ''Doug's New School''. After Principal (formerly Mayor) White holds a contest to name said new school, Mr. Bluff names it the "Beebe Bluff Middle School" after his daughter, making the whole contest (and conflict of the episode) pointless.
* [[Papa Wolf]]: ''Very'' protective of his beloved daughter Beebe. When it seems that Porkchop has attacked her in ''Doug's Christmas Story'' (when he was ''really'' trying to save her from thin ice), Mr. Bluff's actions border on [[Knight Templar Parent]].
** To wit: He strong arms then-mayor White into forcibly incarcerating Porkchop in the county's toughest, meanest dog pound, starts a public smear campaign against Doug and his family simply because they protested Porkchop's harsh treatment, and blatantly attempted to rig Porkchop's trial by overdramatizing Bebbe's injury. (the leg cast was clearly fake)
* [[Rich in Dollars, Poor In Sense]]: In one episode, he tries to "inspire" Doug with the story of how he started his bumper sticker business all by himself... before he remembered he was filthy rich and hired people to do all the hard work for him.
* [[Southern Gentleman]]
* [[Upperclass Twit]]: More of this than a [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]] in the Nickelodeon episodes.
Line 216:
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "BANG!", "BIG BIG BIG", "MONDO", and "That's HOT"!
* [[Disco Dan]]: Guy's favorite kind of music.
* [[Flanderization]]: He's an [[ItsIt's All About Me|obnoxious egotist]] but not really ''that'' much of a jerk in the show at all, as stated below. [[The Movie]], however, inexplicably takes his negative qualities to the extreme and turns him into an outright villain.
* [[Intergenerational Friendship]]: Guy with [[Southern Gentleman|Mr. Bluff]]. Especially since Guy's parents are never shown and Mr. Bluff is the [[Disappeared Dad|closest thing]] [[Missing Mom|to a parent]] he has on the show.
* [[ItsIt's All About Me]]: Guy surely thinks so, at least to a mild extent.
* [[Jive Turkey]]: Guy should be the [[Trope Namer]] of this trope, seriously! EVERYTHING that comes out of his mouth is either this or [[Totally Radical]]!
* [[Keet]]
Line 227:
** [[Unknown Rival]]: Guy doesn't realize how much a burden he is on Doug.
* [[School Newspaper Newshound]]
* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]: And since his name is "Guy", it's literatelly a small name.
 
=== Willy, Boomer, and Ned ===
Line 235:
* [[The Cutie]]: Willy. With that cute little tooth and clueless personality, how could you NOT want to hug him?
* [[The Ditz]]: Willy
* [[Five -Bad Band]]:
** [[Big Bad]]: Roger
** [[The Dragon]]: Boomer
Line 259:
* [[The Lancer]]: To Guy
* [[The Mentor]]: Essentially is this to Doug when Guy sends him out to do an investigative report for the school newspaper. A [[Running Gag]] throughout the episode was her advice being proven wrong mere seconds after she gives it to him.
* [[No Hugging, No Kissing]]: Guy and Sally work together, but yet as much time they spend with each other, there's absolutely no romance between them.
* [[Plot Allergy]]: In one of the "Doug" books, we find out Sally's allergic to chalk. Due to the fact, Doug is trying to find out who drew on the wall with chalk.
* [[Recurring Extra]]
Line 275:
* [[Alpha Bitch]]: Cassandra ''is'' this trope.
* [[The Beautiful Elite]]
* [[ItsIt's All About Me]]
* [[Jerk With a Heart of Jerk]]: She's DEFINITELY the biggest jerk on the whole show...even worse than [[The Bully|Roger]] and [[Southern Gentleman|Mr. Bluff]] by a landslide! She's not even misunderstood!
* [[Valley Girl]]: Her voice surely applies, even if she's not [[The Ditz]] by any means. She's just [[Book Dumb]] at times.
