{{quote|'''Conroy''': It says here that "Fish Hooks is one of the most original, inventive animated series on television".<br />
'''Doggy''': How can a show taking place in school be inventive? ''(Lists long list of shows occurring in high schools)''<br />
'''Conroy''': Yeah, but this is the first to have '''fish''' in school! Thats totally original!|'''''[[The Cartoon Chronicles of Conroy Cat]]''''', [http://dtoons.com/conroy/2010/09/a-school-of-fish/ A School of Fish]}}

=== ''[[Fish Hooks]]'' provides examples of: ===
* [[Abhorrent Admirer]]: Clamantha to Oscar, Randy to Bea.
* [[Actor Allusion]]: Milo thinks Kyle Massey is a magical dude. [[Don't Explain the Joke|Kyle Massey is his voice actor]].
Line 23:
* [[Anti-Humor]]: Despite the show having [[Punny Name|punny character names]] such as "Clamantha" and "Jocktopus," any reference to the fish-world equivalent of a real-world locale simply has the word "Fish" attached to it rather than a fish-related pun, such as "Fish Broadway" or "Fish Austin, Texas."
** Semi-justified as there are other species around the pet shop, a point brought up in "Hooray for Hamsterwood".
* [[Attack of the 50 -Foot Whatever]]: Milo in "Big Fish", complete with [[Shout-Out]] to [[Ghostbusters|Stay-Puff Marshmallow Man]].
* [[Berserk Button]]: If you happen to be a [[Jerkass]], don't even touch Bea. [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass|Oscar will be very pissed.]]
* [[Casanova Wannabe]]: Randy Pincherson, though he [[Single-Target Sexuality|only targets Bea]].
Line 44:
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: Piranhica, despite even appearing in promotional artwork, has had a grand total of ''seven'' lines through out season 1. One of them being a part of background noise.
* [[Description Cut]]: One in the first episode.
{{quote| '''Oscar''': Uh oh, she's losing it again, Milo.<br />
'''Milo''': Is she bro, is she?<br />
(Cue [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/fishhooks/images/3/38/Fish_Hooks_Bea_starts_panicking.PNG this])<br />
'''Oscar''': Yes! }}
* [[Disguised in Drag]]: Milo and Oscar dress as girls to get into Bea's all-girl slumber party. No one was fooled.
** Except Clamantha.
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: Milo and Bea's reaction to Oscar's blogging, and in the same episode, Oscar's attempt at flushing himself down a toilet.
{{quote| '''Bea''': Listen to me, whatever is troubling you, you'll make it through.}}
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]: "I'm a claaaam!"
* [[Drugs Are Bad]]: "Big Fish" can be viewed as a "don't do steroids" episode.
Line 67:
* [[Gentle Giant]]: Koi
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: This wouldn't have been that big a deal if it wasn't on Disney, but in "Fish Out of Water", the teacher, a seahorse, starts ranting:
{{quote| '''Teacher''': You think you got problems? Look at me! [[Mister Seahorse|I'm pregnant!]]<br />
''[class gasps with horrified looks on their faces; Clamantha laughs, unfazed]''<br />
'''Teacher''': You probably didn't know that male seahorses could get pregnant. Well, neither did I! But LIFE HAPPENS! }}
** Not to mention the use of "screw" in the same episode, which again wouldn't be a big deal if it wasn't on Disney.
Line 120:
* [[Somebody Doesn't Love Raymond]]: "Fishing for Compliments: The Albert Glass Story"
* [[Stalker with a Crush]]: Clamantha

* [[Valley Girl]]: Shellsea
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Shellsea
{{quote| '''Shellsea:''' ''Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirlllllllllll.''}}
* [[Widget Series]]: You'd be surprised how amazingly weird this series actually is.
* [[Worthless Yellow Rocks]]: Jocktopus is given money on his birthday and thinks it's just worthless paper. His girlfriend Piranhica knows what money is, but intentionally keeps him in the dark so she can keep it for herself.
Line 139:
** And was about to beat up Bea in one episode until Oscar stopped him.
* [[Yandere]]: In the episode "Fishing for Compliments: The Albert Glass Story", Bea becomes obsessed with Albert Glass because he doesn't like her. It bugs her so much because she's not used to people not liking her and she spends the entire episode trying to get on his good side. In the end, after going to so much trouble, she no longer cares if anybody likes her or not and realizes that what's important is that she likes herself.
{{quote| '''Oscar:''' I like you.<br />
'''Bea:''' Yeah whatever. }}
** Which, ironically, is how she finally becomes friends with Albert in the end.
* [[Yeah! Shot]]: FRIENDS!
* [[Your Head Asplode]]

'''Bea''': Um... we, like, kinda already knew.<br />
'''Clamantha''': We did? ''[head explodes]'' }}
