Fish Hooks/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Crazy Awesome: Milo
  • Critical Dissonance: The show has not been as well recieved by critics as another animated Disney series, but this show still scores about 3 million viewers on average each new episode. Not to mention the pilot, "Bea Stays In the Picture", scored a huge 4.8 million, which is about more than most SpongeBob SquarePants episodes.
  • Ear Worm:
    • The theme song.
    • Final exam! Final exam! You better get ready for the final exam!
    • Eat Dip! Eat Dip! Eat Dip, Eat Dip, Eat Dip!
  • Marty Stu: Steve Jackson.
  • Nightmare Fuel:
    • Clamantha's appearance is just kind of unsettling and her creepy obsession with Oscar just makes it worse.
    • At the end of Two Clams In Love we get to see the world from Clamantha's eyes. The result is . . . unsettling.

Clamantha: So, do you wanna kiss now or what?
Oscar: (Screams)

  • One-Scene Wonder: Brandon Bubbler, the Justin Bieber Expy.
  • Pair the Spares / Ships That Pass in the Night: With the Oscar x Bea pairing, there tends to be a paring of Milo x Shellsea, despite that both have very little dialogue together, the most being in the sleepover episode, when Milo is Disguised in Drag.
  • Ruined FOREVER: Some fans are declaring this already because of an unaired episode that involves Oscar finding a new love interest and Milo going on a date with Bea.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: both fans and haters of the show agree that if the show was focused less on school, and more on the weirdness, it wouldn't be such a indecisive crowd. Needless to say, episodes like "Fish Out of Water" or "Peopleing" are better received than episodes like "Queen Bea" or "Fish Floaters".
  • Uncanny Valley:
  • The Woobie:
    • Clamantha becomes a much more sympathetic character after "Two Clams In Love."
    • Albert Glass could also count as one.
    • At times, Oscar also qualifies.
