Perfect Hair Forever (2004, 2007) [[Too Good to Last|Sadly short-lived]] [[Adult Swim]] series that showcased [[Japanese Media Tropes]] the way a Peacock displays his feathers. Lasting a mere six episodes, this series from the same minds that brought you ''[[Aqua Teen Hunger Force (Animation)|Aqua Teen Hunger Force]]'' and ''[[Squidbillies]]'' definitely qualifies as an [[Affectionate Parody]], with the April 1st marathon even being made to look like a fake Chinese bootleg. A seventh and last episode was added in 2007.

=== Tropes: ===
 
* [[Action Girl]] - Brenda.
Line 20:
** The credits in the first episode are written in Wingdings font.
* [[Blind Idiot Translation]]: Spoofed during the April Fools marathon of the show. For example:
{{quote| '''Gerald:''' You're pissing me off!<br />
'''"Translation":''' You're beginning with the anger. }}
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]
Line 42:
*** Coiffio's dialogue is basically what would happen if Elmer Fudd had a Cajun accent.
* [[Hair Decorations]] - Brenda has got some nice ones... hair decs, I mean.
* [[Everything's Worse Withwith Bears]] - [[Drinking Game|Drink when you see the bear!]]
* [[Evil Twin]] - Give Uncle Grandfather hair and a smaller beard and you have Coiffio.
* [[Fairy Companion]] - Gerald's eclectic acquaintance, Action Hot Dog.
Line 51:
* [[Friend to All Living Things]] - Young Man, to some degree.
* [[Helpful Mook]] - {{spoiler|Cat Man is the one who tells Gerald how to get to Tuna Mountain.}}
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]] - [[MFDOOMMF DOOM]] voices Young Man's giraffe friend. There's also a song on his Dangerdoom album named for and about the show.
* [[A House Divided]] - A few examples:
** Terry/Twisty and Norman Douglass are (much to Gerald's annoyance) constantly fighting with each other.
** Cat Man has no respect for his large haired master, Coiffio (the feeling is mutual).
** None of Young Man's animals seem to listen to anything he says, despite the fact that he is supposed to be the "King of all Animals."
* [[Kaleidoscope Hair]]: Parodied with Coiffio, who has a [[Dragon Ball (Manga)|Super Saiyan-esque]] hairdo that continuously changes colors.
* [[Killed Off for Real]] - {{spoiler|Model Robot}}. Considering the wacky and loose nature of the show, however, it is entirely possible that {{spoiler|--he--}} could have been brought back in later episodes had it not been canceled.
* [[Let's You and Him Fight]] - "Enough! Fight now for three minutes!"
* [[Mind Screw]] - As a parody.
** The last line of the series is Young Man saying "You don't understand. It's a mind*EFF*."
* [[Minion Withwith an F In Evil]]: Cat Man really doesn't give a damn about much of anything, most of all his mook duties.
* [[Mistaken Identity]] - Two at once. Astronomic Cat brings Coiffio the severed hand of Young Man, which Coiffio assumes belongs to Gerald. Coiffio then calls Uncle Grandfather to brag about killing his son, only Gerald is his nephew. Or maybe just his student. It's a mind*EFF*.
* [[Naked Apron]] - Gerald's mom in "Woke Up Drunk"
Line 80:
* [[The Resolution Will Not Be Televised]] - The last few episodes were released on the Internet.
** Even in the final episode, the resolution isn't shown, Gerald just walks toward Tuna Mountain, then it cuts to some other scenes, then Gerald is coming back from Tuna Mountain, with perfect hair. He even mentions a bunch of cool adventures they went on that the audience doesn't get to see.
* [[Shout-Out]] - Woo, where do we start? In the first three episodes or so we get rapid-fire parodies of ''[[DragonballDragon Ball]]'' and ''[[Dragonball Z]]'', ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'', ''[[Sailor Moon]]''... and ''[[Space Ghost Coast to Coast]]''.
* [[Something Else Also Rises]] - Subtle, but Uncle Grandfather just so happens to be holding certain objects between his legs while [[Male Gaze|his gaze]] is directed at Brenda, such as a liquor bottle or a banana.
* [[Sound Effect Bleep]] - Every use of "fuck" is censored with the sound of Coiffio yelling "EFF!"
** Coiffio's bleep sounds like it's run backward. (Could actually be an F bomb played backward. Needs confirmation.)
* [[Stripperiffic]] / [[Ms. Fanservice]] - Just ''look'' at Brenda. The skirt part of her sailor fuku ends ''above her waist'', leaving her gorgeous ass clad only in a thong for the entire world to see.
* [[Surrounded Byby Idiots]] - Inverted. All of Coiffio's minions are far more intelligent than him (which still isn't saying much), except for Catman, who is the [[Only Sane Man]].
* [[Title Drop]] - The first line of the series. "Uncle Grandfather, I want perfect hair forever."
* [[Transforming Mecha]]: Model Robot. Just don't expect him to finish any time soon (unless he's transforming into an A-Bomb and blowing up in your face.)
