=== Provides examples of ===
 
* [[A -Cup Angst]] - Courtney. Justified, as she is a young adolescent, but she is not pleased about her small size. {{spoiler|To the point where an episode's plot involves foiling a plan by two [[High School]] [[Alpha Bitch|Alpha Bitches]] to expose her as a bra-stuffer.}}
** Macie has a more subdued version of the trope. In "The Easter Ham" when Dodie was ranting about how Darren's Birthday Party was one of "the most important BFF thing to happen since we got to buy training bras!" Macie then replied "Those were my darker days," and then left it at that.
** Averted with the other girls who seem comfortable with their bodies.
Line 66:
* [[She Cleans Up Nicely|He Cleans Up Nicely]] - Darren upon getting his braces off.
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]] - Carl and Hoodsey
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]] - This show features a number of easily recognizable voices, but one that really sticks out in two episodes, "The Wicked Game" and "Butterflies Are Free" with the inclusion of a minor character, the wacky evil bird-girl Polly Shuster, are instantly made hilarious when one recognizes who [[Jump Start Adventures 3rd Grade Mystery Mountain|Carl's VA is.]]
** [[Tomoe Hanba]] dubbed Ginger in Japanese.
* [[Iconic Item]] - Darren only has his headgear in the first season, and they're off for the rest of the series. But they are still one of his most recognized features, and the opening credits stay the same throughout the show's run.
Line 119:
** Miranda is a straighter example.
* [[Rich in Dollars, Poor In Sense]]: Courtney
* [[Screwed Byby the Network]] - Only ''half'' of Season 3 ever aired. At a 6am timeslot no less.
* [[Serenade Your Lover]] - Ginger confesses her crush on Sasha in the first Camp Caprice special by playing him a song she had written for him on the guitar.
* [[Shout-Out]]- Carl takes a liking to a eccentric old lady named Maude due to her having a lot in common with him. a Shout out to the movie [[Harold and Maude]].
Line 127:
* [[Slippery Swimsuit]]
* [[Spoiled Sweet]] - Courtney, she's naive and more than a little vain. But she almost always has good intentions and genuinely seems interested in Ginger's life. And one time she actually helps Ginger avoid a breakup when Courtney's two friends and Ginger's two friends try to do so.
* [[Stuck Onon a Ski Lift]] - Ginger's brother pays off the operator to stop it in order to break the world record for the longest time stuck on a ski lift.
* [[The Talk]]
* [[Those Two Guys]]: Carl and Hoodsey.
Line 133:
* [[Uncanny Valley Makeup]] - In one episode the girls try to look glamorous by wearing makeup they made themselves. The fact that they have no prior experience in applying makeup is made ''very'' clear. They end up looking like clowns.
* [[Ungrateful Bastard]]: Hope. She tries to tell Ginger that she'll be a loser if she hangs out with Courtney. The only reason she's now the most popular girl in school is because Ginger helped her gain confidence and advice on how to improve her image
* [[Visit Byby Divorced Dad]] - Ginger and Carl's dad shows up in a handfull of episodes. He is shown to be more than a little flakey, and it is probably for the best that he wasn't the one with custody of them, considering he doesn't even remember Carl is deathly allergic to peanuts. But he is shown to genuinely care about them.
* [[Walk On the Wild Side Episode]]: Ginger gets fed up with being called a nice girl and crashes a high school party. This leads to a rumour getting started about her and a bad boy called Jake. Ginger realises she preferred being known as a nice girl.
* [[What Could Have Been]] - The unaired pilot was quite different from the show we know of today. The main difference were the designs and art style. The hair styles were different, Miranda and Darren were [[Race Lift|white]], and the style was similar to the [[Rugrats]] ([[Deranged Animation]] and all).
