Pepper Ann: Difference between revisions

* [[Fiery Redhead]]: Pepper Ann

* [[Fictional Video Game]]: Crunch Pod

* [[Freaky Friday Flip]]: There was a ''Freaky Friday''-style episode with Pepper Ann and Lydia switching personalities after the two of them argue over who has it tougher.

* [[Friendly Enemies]]: Janie and Margot in "The Sisterhood" until Janie realises she doesn't have to pretend to like Margot just because she's a fellow woman.

* [[Groundhog Day Loop]]: "T.G.I.F."

* [[Hartman Hips]]: Pepper Ann's mom is a rare overweight example.

** The cynical substitute teacher Ms. Bladdar is voiced by Bebe Neuwirth (who played Fraiser Crane's ex-wife on ''Cheers'' and ''Fraiser'').

** Milo Kamalani is voiced by Danny Cooksey, best remembered for playing Bobby Budnick on ''Salute Your Shorts'' and voicing Montana Max on ''Tiny Toon Adventures''.

* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: Pepper Ann's mother in "The Sisterhood" forces Pepper Ann to go to a Woman's bonding weekend seminar, talking about how ''her'' mother forced her to do all sorts of things she didn't want to and learned all sorts of skills that had no place in the real world (all the while making her do stuff like chainsaw ice statues and participate in a mock women's rights protest)

* [[Imagine Spot]]: Lots and lots. Let's just say Pepper Ann has a very... active imagination.

* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy|I Want My Friend to Be Happy]]: Nicky also has a crush on Craig Bean, but she's still willing to help Pepper Ann get with him.

* [[Jewish Mother]]: Averted with Lydia, but played straight with her own mom.

** Maybe Moose as well.

* [[Opening Shout Out]]: In "Like Riding a Bike" which starts with Pepper Ann finding maracas under her desk and Dieter taking them back. Then in the next scene, Pepper Ann is explaining her conspiracy theory that Mr. Carter is somehow responsible for her being late for school every day, listing a number of things that make her late in the opening.

* [[Parental Bonus]]: In the first episode Pepper Ann goes into Abe's Mall (which features a big statue of Abe Lincoln out front) to buy some pimple cream. The names of various shops in the mall float behind her, including "John Wilkes Photo Booth," "Getty's Burgers," "Four Score and Seven Year Pets," and "Civil Wear."

** Nearly everything the [[Jerkass]] [[Nietzsche Wannabe]] title character of the episode "Effie Shrugged" says is some kind of literary reference.

* [[Visit By Divorced Dad]]: Pepper Ann's parents may be divorced, but there are episodes where Pepper Ann's father visits.

* [[Voices Are Mental]]: A noteworthy rare ''aversion'' of this; when Pepper Ann and her mom swap minds, the voice actors do not trade jobs, but they do trade inflections and speech patterns.

** Allegedly, Pepper Ann's "real" name is Jennifer, but this is never spoken on the show, nor is it officially confirmed. It is only seen on some old Internet episode guide listings.

* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]: Nicky Little is a lot more soft-spoken especially compared to her younger self, but still as tough as iron. Of course, she still shows streaks of...

** [[Cute and Psycho]]: A running gag with Nicky is her short tempered personality. It becomes even more apparent when it's revealed she used to be a grade-school bully in The Way They Were.
