Sonny With a Chance/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Non Sequitur Scene: At times the show can easily be called "Disney's Big Lipped Alligator: The Show".
  • Complete Monster: Penelope in "Sonny with a Secret".
  • Crazy Awesome: Zora.
  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: Sonny finally getting to show off her singing talents on the show. Even Tawni says that she's good.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome: "Me, Myself, and Time", which Sonny sings on the show once.
  • Ear Worm: The "Ckeck It Out Girls" theme song. Check it out.
    • And from the episode Dakota's Revenge - "Chad Chad Chady Chad Chad".
      • Chad, Chad, Chaddie, Chaddie, Chad, Chad~Chad, Chad, Chaddie, Chaddie, Chad...
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel: "Sonny With a Secret": Sitting in a plane with its hatch open while wind is blowing in darkness, and you don't have a parachute.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: The Punkd parody where Zora tricks Chad into thinking he's the host becomes more funny when the revival of the show had Justin Bieber do the same thing to Miley Cyrus
  • Ho Yay: Nico and Grady, bordering on Ambiguously Gay. For example, one episode had Grady and Sonny pretending to date whilst Nico and Tawni pulled a prank. Later when they meet up they both ask "Was she better then me?" That's right Nico was asking if Sonny was a better girlfriend then him.
  • Iron Woobie: Acting as Those Two Guys (or is it as a Heterosexual Life Partners?), this trope defines Nico and Grady. When working or hanging out together, there's nothing - physical or emotional - that can hold them down for very long.
  • Les Yay: The episode where Sonny's friend Lucy visits pinged more than a few radars. Also, Tawni and Sonny.
    • "I need you. I need you! I need you! I need you! I need you more than a flower needs rain, more than a balloon needs air and more than you need a spray tan." Then they hug, and Sonny starts giggling.
    • The Eric episode had Tawni trying to kiss Eric!Sonny.
    • Not to mention the sheer amount of girl-fighting between Sonny and Tawni.
    • "Falling for the Falls" has a few pieces of Does This Remind You of Anything?.
  • Nausea Fuel: Some of the "Sicky Vicky" sketches.
  • Portmanteau Couple Name:

Tia: And welcome back to Tia. I'm here with Hollywood's it couple du jour. Sonny Munroe and Chad Dylan Cooper, or as I've just decided to call you, Channy.
Sonny: Oh, that's cute! Channy, I like that.
Chad: Oh, we've got our own mashup name.

  • Shipping: Pretty much Channy (Chad/Sonny) as the Fan-Preferred Couple by a huge margin. Next biggest is Tawni/Sonny. Occasionally other ships are teased, such as Sonny/Nico in the pilot (with no Chad), and Sonny/Grady in a more recent one.
