=== Simmonsisms (Associated Tropes): ===

* [[Character Development]]: As of Season 4, he's no longer ''instantly'' sucks up to Sarge. He'll still usually go along with it, but he'll grumble if the plan is particularly insane, even when it doesn't directly threaten his life.

** Then comes ''Recreation'', where he's more openly critical of Sarge's leadership.

Line 73:

* [[Named After Somebody Famous]]: Take a wild guess.

* [[Ow, My Body Part]]: One of his running character gags is that he does this whenever he's injured.

* [[Professional Butt-Kisser]] Initially, he agrees with anything Sarge says, but overtime he becomes less of one. {{spoiler|He doesn't lose it too much though.}}

* [[Professional Butt-Kisser]]

* [[The Smart Guy]]: Arguably the most rational member of Red Team, next to Lopez, he also possesses astute knowledge of computer technology and physics. But to a fault, it's made him more than a little arrogant, which does tend to blind his rationality.

* [[The Smart Guy]]: Arguably the most rational member of Red Team, next to Lopez, he also possesses astute knowledge of computer technology and physics. But to a fault, it's made him more than a little arrogant, which does tend to blind his rationality. When they find out the reason why they were assigned to project Freelancer since they were low-level officers and rejects from actual military service, Grif wondered why Simmons was there if he was supposed to be smart. Simmons reveals he wasn't good with pressure and timed exercises so he failed because he never finished the tests on time.

** He's also not nearly as smart as he thinks he is or leads others to believe. He does, however, seem to have become very good at faking it and fobbing the work off on more competent people (like Lopez).

* [[The Spock]]: Simmons would love to be this. But his own emotional, psychological hang ups get in the way.
