Hannah Montana: Difference between revisions

** Lilly mentions a brother once, in Season 1 -- then never again. In Season 3, she says sometimes she ''wishes'' she had a brother.

* [[Shallow Love Interest]]: Many, which is understandable given the main characters are all [[Hormone-Addled Teenager|teenagers]]. Notable examples include Becca Weller and Gabe "Hottie Lamati with the Swimmer's Body" Lamati.

* [[Shouldn't We Be in School Right Now?]]: Hannah has been known to be on tour for weeks at a time, and engages in activities and publicity stunts during school hours, such as reading to a group of preschoolers. Yet, as regular old Miley Stewart, she attends a public school, and her absences are never referenced, nor do they arouse the suspicion of anyone at school.

* [[Shout-Out]]: Many. Notably, the episodes are named after songs.

* [[Token Minority]]: Subverted with Rico. He may be the only Latino in an otherwise [[Mighty Whitey|monochrome]] cast, but he subverts the TV stereotype of Latinos by being intelligent, wealthy, and motivated.<ref>He's also greedy, conniving, and selfish.</ref>

* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Played straight in the first two seasons with Lilly and Miley, respectively. Lilly eventually [[Girliness Upgrade|becomes more of a girly girl herself]], though she remains much more athletic than Miley, who is [[Picked Last|terrible at sports]].

* [[Trailers Always Spoil]]: The official promo for "I'll Always Remember You" showed very few clips from the first half of the episode, and almost entirely put emphasis on Hannah taking off her blonde wig and exposing her identity as Miley Stewart to the world.

* [[Tsundere]]: Miley towards Jake Ryan. When they first meet, she treats him with disdain, calling his antics "disgusting" and turning him down three times when he asks her to a dance. It isn't until Hannah guest stars on Jake's TV show and they almost kiss during a scene that she realizes - or admits to herself - that she actually likes him.<ref>Eventually, Jake and Miley enter an on-again, off-again relationship. From then on, every time they are ''not'' a couple, Miley is generally nice to him, but her [[Belligerent Sexual Tension|angry reactions to any perceived slight]] are well out of proportion to the [[Just Friends]] status they are supposedly at.</ref> Lilly with her usual [[Genre Savvy]] is actually aware of Miley's true feelings from the start:

** Miley's identical cousin, Luann.

** Robbie Ray's brother and Luann's dad, Bobby Ray Stewart.

* [[Vacation Episode]]

* [[Very Special Episode]]: "Been Here All Along", in Season 4, honors military families with a touching episode that includes cameo appearances by real families of the [[Yanks With Tanks|U.S. Armed Forces]].
