Line 29:
** And to an extent, everyone else in the town (excluding Stephanie and Sportacus).
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: Played with in the episode [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Defeeted]]. As far as Sportacus and the mayor are concerned, the kids not wanting to play outside is ''just as serious'' as a natural disaster:
{{quote| '''Sportacus''': "Mr Mayor, what's the trouble?"<br />
'''Mayor''': "Well..."<br />
'''Sportacus''': "Flood?"<br />
'''Mayor''': "No."<br />
'''Sportacus''': "Fire?"<br />
'''Mayor''': "No."<br />
'''Sportacus''': "Earthquake?"<br />
'''Mayor''': "No."<br />
'''Sportacus''': "Thunderstorm?"<br />
'''Mayor''': "Actually...it's that nobody wants to go outside and play!"<br />
'''Sportacus''': "What?! That ''is'' terrible!" }}
* [[Ask For A Little Help]]: Stephanie. In "Rottenbeard", she yelled for help almost CONSTANTLY, causing Sportacus to think she was in trouble, but it turns out that she pretended to be in trouble because she and her friends were playing Pirates and she had to walk the gangplank.
Line 57:
* [[Can't Argue with Elves]]: Partially subverted in the original Latibær plays. Íþróttaálfurinn (Sportacus) doesn't exactly ''lecture'' the humans on how to live better, healthier lives. Instead, he ''teaches'' them.
* [[Catch Phrase]]:
{{quote| '''Sportacus''': "Someone's in trouble!"<br />
'''Stephanie''': "There's always a way!"<br />
'''Robbie Rotten''': "I meant to do that!" }}
* [[Chest Insignia]]: Sportacus' '10'.
Line 131:
* [[Not Allowed to Grow Up]]: In season 2 Stephanie, despite very visible growth in the season break, is still played as a young girl. However, there ''are'' limits -- in 2013, for season 3, Julianna Rose Mauriello (now in her 20s) was replaced by the ''much'' younger Chloe Lang.
* [[Not Evil, Just Misunderstood]]: Robbie:
{{quote| ''"They want me to be nice<br />
They want me to be good<br />
But I’m a simple rotten guy<br />
Who’s just misunderstood"'' }}
* [[Oh Wait, This Is My Grocery List]]: Parodied in the episode "Rottenbeard" where Robbie Rotten, disguised as a pirate, pulls out his grocery list instead of the treasure map.
Line 156:
* [[Power-Up Food]]: The "sports candy", particularly if eaten by Sportacus, but sometimes characters will also benefit from eating them.
* [[Robot Dog]]: Robbie built one of these. The dog attacks when the word 'trouble' is uttered. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwS4the0uE0 There's even a song about him.]
{{quote| ''I love my purple ball of fluff / I’ll flip a switch and turn him off''}}
* [[Rose-Haired Girl]]: Stephanie
* [[Save the Villain]]: Sportacus will usually do it for Robbie Rotten. In at least one episode, "LazyTown's New Superhero," Robbie then betrays that help by trying to leave Sportacus stranded on top of the billboard hiding the entrance to his lair, the same one that he was trapped on top of.
Line 178:
* [[Talk Like a Pirate]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6oKjuvA55g YOU AAAAARE A PIRATE!]
* [[Team Spirit]]: While many of LazyTown's episodes revolve around the values of working together, there is one in particular that focuses on teamwork, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmlW277w3-A complete with a song]:
{{quote| ''"Teamwork, do it together / Teamwork, friends forever,<br />
We're all for one and one for all / We'll help each other stand tall,<br />
With teamwork!"//'' }}
* [[The Cast Showoff]]: Sportacus showcases Scheving's amazing stunts and talent as a gymnast, to the point where the character won't simply ''walk'' anywhere - instead he'll flip, somersault, walk on his hands, cartwheel, etc. just to get to wherever he needs to be. Granted, the show was ''created'' by Scheving himself, but still...
Line 189:
* [[Training Montage]]: Played with when Sportacus was training Ziggy to be a hero like him. The music even vaguely sounded like the Rocky music.
* [[Treasure Map]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6oKjuvA55g YOU ARE A PIRATE!]
{{quote| ''We got us a map<br />
That leads us to a hidden box<br />
That's all locked up with locks<br />
And buried deep away<br />
We'll dig up the box<br />
We know it's full of [[Pirate Booty|precious booty]]<br />
Burst open the locks<br />
Line 208:
* [[Where the Hell Is Springfield?|Where The Hell Is LazyTown?]]
* [[You Are Not Alone]]: From one of the original plays, the song [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csTWwGBAsE4 Ég á Góðan Vin] (I Have A Good Friend) song fits this trope to a tee.
{{quote| ''"You are never alone / Even though someone tossed you aside.<br />
You are never alone / Because you have me."'' }}
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|You Gotta Have Pink Hair]]
