Line 17:
* [[Big Eater]]: While it isn't shown on-screen, "The Great State Fair" and "Omega Kids" hints that he can be one, and this was also hinted in some print material.
* [[Big Fun]]: He's not "huge", but he's a bit plump. As for "fun", ''you'd best believe it''
* [[Big Man
* [[Blue Eyes]]: He has bright baby-blue eyes according to [[Word of God]].
* [[Book Dumb]]: He got a C- on a book report because he used the book's cover blurb, thinks "spy" is spelled S-P-I, gets a 10.1% on a test, however, on the playground, he can pull of elaborate schemes (literaly) under his hat.
Line 34:
* [[Dumb Is Good]]
* [[Embarrassing First Name]]: His first name is ''Theodore''.
* [[Embarrassing Middle Name]]: His middle name is ''Jasper''. No wonder he [[Only Known
* [[Estrogen Brigade Bait]]: While unintentional, he apparently has more fangirls than any other male character.
* [[Fat Idiot]]: He's pudgy, though his dumb side comes out of laziness instead of actual stupidity. He's very street smart, just not book smart.
Line 55:
* [[Nice Hat]]
* [[Nice Jewish Boy]]: While slightly ambiguous given the events of the [[Christmas Episode]], he's a sweetie
* [[Only Known
* [[The Other Darrin]]: He was replaced a number of times in the series. Ross Malinger played him in season one, Andrew Lawrence (who's considered the best of all the kids who did his voice) played him for the rest of the series and movie, and Myles Jeffrey played him in the direct-to-video movies released after the show ended, as well as the ''[[Lilo and Stitch: The Series]]'' crossover episode.
* [[The Pete Best]]: There aren't many fans who remember that Ross Malinger was the voice of T.J. in season one, and only remember him being voiced by Andrew Lawrence from the second season until the end of the series.
* [[Puppy Dog Eyes]]: Arguably his default set of eyes in season one.
* [[Round Bushy Hair]]: [[Depending
* [[Rousing Speech]]

* [[Wide
* [[Youthful Freckles]]
Line 95:
{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' Pamela Segall-Aldon}}
* [[Action Girl]]
* [[Ambiguously Brown]]: Spinelli's ethnic background has been called into question. Since she has almond-shaped eyes found on Asian girls in cartoons and light brown skin, many viewers have assumed that Spinelli was originally from somewhere in South Asia and was adopted by Caucasian parents. On the other hand, Spinelli's skin tone is also found on Southern Italians (Silicians, specifically) and [[That Other Wiki]] has established that Spinelli's family (possibly her father's side, as he has really dark hair and almost the same skin tone as his daughter, and her mother looks like she could be white European) is Italian (right down to Spinelli's penchant for fighting, which comes from the stereotype of the hot-blooded Italian) so either Spinelli's mom isn't really her mom, Spinelli's mom being a redhead is an [[Actor Allusion]] to Katey Sagal [who played Peggy Bundy -- a redheaded housewife who wore tacky 1960s housewife clothes and has a big bouffant, like Spinelli's mom does -- on ''[[Married...
** [[But Not Too Foreign]]: On the episode in which Randall discovers Spinelli's embarrassing first name ({{spoiler|Ashley}}), Spinelli reveals she was named after her great-aunt who was from Alaska and ran in the Iditarod, meaning that Spinelli could be Inuit (Alaskan Native) on her mom's side and Italian on her father's side.

* [[Cool Old Lady]]: On a good day
* [[Even Evil Has Standards| Even Finster Has Standards]]: Finster may understand punishing TJ and his friends for accidently breaking a statue but the idea of separating the kids into different schools that Mayor Phillip Fitzhugh wanted was too ruthless, even for her.
Line 504:
* [[Fiery Redhead]]: She was a redhead when she was younger, but still very fiery.
* [[The Dragon]]/ [[The Lancer]]: to Principal Prickly.
* [[I Was Quite a Looker]]: In ''[[Recess:

{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' Dabney Coleman}}
* [[Apathetic Teacher]]: Most of the time
* [[Ascended Extra]]: He gets a bigger role in ''[[Recess:
* [[Adult Child]]: At times.
* [[Characterization Marches On]]: In "The Great Jungle Gym Standoff", he's another [[Sadist Teacher]] in the series, which isn't seen again for the rest of the show (with him being [[Apathetic Teacher|apathetic]] instead.) This could've been because the episode was one of the earliest ones made.
* [[Hippie Teacher]]: In the `60s.

Line 542:
* [[The Cutie]]: And ''how!''
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: "This Brain for Hire" shows that when she needs to be, she's probably the snarkiest character in the entire series.
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: She only appears two times in ''[[Recess:
** In ''Recess: Taking the Fifth Grade'', she only has a few speaking lines and that's it. Justified, however, as the main kids weren't in her class anymore.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
* [[Jerk
=== Chad LaSalle ===
Line 596:
=== Dr. Slicer ===
* [[A Nazi
* [[Knight of Cerebus]]: His episode is one of the darkest episodes of the series and every scene he appears in takes a darker turn. Not to mention, that unlike all other antagonists, his actions are played seriously and he is downright cruel (calling TJ sappy boy, just because he showed emotion and humilliated him in front of the school) and every other characters fear him, even TJ, who normally stands up to evils of adults.
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: Despite appearing in one episode, he is the cruelest character in the entire series and is one of few antagonists of the series that can be called truly evil.
