''Stickin' Around'' is a Canadian animated show about Stacy and Bradley, two 9-year-olds who live adventures with their [[Mr. Imagination|hyperactive imagination]], [[Wunza Plot|whatever it might be]]. Their imagination driven adventures are a way of dealing with the various everyday life scenarios that come their way. [[Stylistic Suck|The show is intentionally drawn crudely to simulate a young child's drawing]], and it actually looks very convincing.
 
The series was beloved by many Canadian children during [[The Nineties]].

{{tropelist}}
=== This series includes examples of: ===
 
* [[Accidental Pervert]]: As seen in the episode "Hit the Showers", when both the boys and girls see each other after running out of their respective showers.
* [[Adults Are Useless]]: Most of the time, especially during the "Imagination Sequence of the Week".
Line 16 ⟶ 14:
* [[Art Evolution]]: The second and third seasons boast sharper detail than the first season.
* [[Assumed Win]]: "And The Wiener Is" is centered around this. Also happens at a lesser extent in a few other episodes.
* [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]]: Bradley and Stacy are accused of this in one episode, which is mostly due to the fact that they're frequently with each other throughout the entire series. Despite this, [[Just Friends|there's no confirmed romantic relationship between them at all]].
* [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]]: Bradley and Stacy (at least according to the shippers)
* [[Black Bead Eyes]]
Line 23 ⟶ 21:
* [[Canadian Series]]
* [[Catch Phrase]]: Numerous!

<br />
'''Russell:''' Yeah, [insert word that Lance just said] }}
* [[Child Prodigy]]: Polly, given the fact that she's young enough to be in kindergarten and is in the same grade as the two lead characters.
Line 45 ⟶ 43:
* [[Doomy Dooms of Doom]]
* [[Double Entendre]]: Because no Canadian kids' show would be complete without them.
* [[E Equals =MC Hammer]]: "And the cosine is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to [[Blah Blah Blah|(gibberish)]]."
* [[Episode Onon a Plane]]: "Return Your Seats To An Uptight Position", where Stacy demonstrates her airplane flying skills [[Hilarity Ensues|with hilarious results]].
** Also, be on the look out for those "unexpected turbans" and Lance and Russell's international terrorist attack.
* [[Expository Theme Tune]]: How's this for expository? "For your big fat information, this is our imagination."
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better Withwith Princesses]]: Done several times with Stacy. Ashley arguably counts as one as well, [[Alpha Bitch|albeit a rather fresh one]].
* [[A Day Atat the Bizarro|Every Day At The Bizarro]]
* [[Fan Disservice]]: Lance and Russell succumb to being this during school picture day when they're shown wearing their more "[[Stock Underwear|casual clothing]]".
** Same goes to Stacy, who shows up in her pajamas, wearing a bird's nest as a hat, with mud covered on her face.
* [[Feud Episode]]: Goodbye, Adios, Sayonara Bradley.
* [[Four -Fingered Hands]]
* [[Gag Boobs]]: Happens at least twice in the later seasons, once to Bradley and Stacy.
* [[Genre Savvy]]: In addition to [[Lampshade Hanging]] and [[Medium Awareness]].
Line 69 ⟶ 67:
* [[Improbable Hairstyle]]: Pretty much every character that HAS hair, this especially goes for Bradley and his [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|purple]] [[Funny Afro|afro]].
* [[It Tastes Like Feet]]: The central premise of the "Beware the Lunchwad" episode. Taken a step further when Bradley asks Stacy if she's ever eaten anything gross.
* [[Jerkass]]: Stacy, Bradley, Stella, heck, everybody's got a Jerkass moment in this show. [[Jerkass With A Heart Of Gold|Some less than others.]]
* [[Jerk Jock]]: Lance
* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: Originally intended to come out on DVD, but Nelvana never got around doing so.
* [[Kwyjibo]]: Inverted during a game of Squabble, since it requires one to spell out anything that isn't a word.
* [[Lady Land]]: "It's the Planet of the Girls!"
Line 102 ⟶ 100:
* [[Parental Bonus]]: The movie references count as this.
* [[Parent Ex Machina]]: Some of Stacy and Bradley's imagination driven hijinks do get them in trouble at times.
* [[Potty Emergency]]: Bradley suffers this in the episode Hold It.
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: See [[Episode Onon a Plane]] for one of the more "extreme" examples of this.
* [[Refuge in Vulgarity]]: The reason why Bradley keeps saying Uranus. And no, that's not [[Alternate Character Interpretation]], he actually admits it in the very first episode.
* [[Riding Into the Sunset]]: Done with washing machines. Lampshaded in the same occasion by Mr. Doddler.
* [[Sadist Teacher]]: Both Mr. Lederhosen and Principal Coffin, though the former counts as more of [[Drill Sergeant Nasty|a bossy drill sergeant]].
* [[Serial Escalation]]: The "kids making their own cartoon" premise pretty much speaks for itself.
* [[Shout -Out]]: See [[Parental Bonus]] for a good chunk of them.
* [[Six -Student Clique]]
** The Head — Stacy
** The Muscle — Lance
Line 122 ⟶ 121:
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]
* [[Stylistic Suck]]: The show ''itself'' '''IS''' an extended example of this trope.
* [[Superhero]]: The most frequently used alternate persona of Bradley and Stacy. In one episode alone, Bradley takes the form of [[Five -Man Band|five superheroes]] while playing baseball with his friends, including [[Rubber Man|"The Amazing Rubber Guy"]].
* [[Suck E. CheesesCheese's]]: Captain Hook And Slice.
* [[Swimming Pool]]: Seen many times throughout the series, to a point of being a supplementary plot element in several episodes.
* [[Take That]]: Stacy and Bradley do this to one another a lot.
Line 134 ⟶ 133:
* [[Troperiffic]]
* [[Two Shorts]]
* [[Two -Teacher School]]
* [[Uranus Is Showing]]: Bradley's favourite joke. Which isn't to say Stacy doesn't get her fair share in regards to using it.
* [[Well, Excuse Me, Princess!]]: Another notable element in Bradley and Stacy's relationship.
* [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not Awesome?]]: Especially considering the overall premise, it's hard to imagine that Stacy and Bradley are just going through episode after episode enduring everyday life situations.
* [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's for Kids?]]: A good portion of the episodes kinda push it (the aforementioned [[Episode Onon a Plane]] comes to mind).
* [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made Onon Drugs?]]
