Line 8:
The show debuted in April, 2008. After a rough air schedule, ''The Mighty B!'' was pretty much forgotten halfway through 2010. It took a station change to Nicktoons Network and another year before the final episodes ever got released, eventually ending its run in June 2011.
Please ''do not confuse'' with ''[[The Mighty Boosh]]''.

=== ''The Mighty B!'' provides examples of: ===
Line 80:
* [[Halloween Episode]]: "Catatonic"
* [[Hartman Hips]]: Mary Gibbons (Portia's mom), oddly
* [[Heel Face Revolving Door]] Penny is Bessie's best friend, and yet she frequently goes behind her back to team up with Portia and Gwen (sometimes to gang up against her, even). What's even more odd is that Bessie never seems to have a problem with this.
* [[Hook Hand]]: Daren, the neighbor has hooks for his hands.
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: Subverted. See the trope entry.
Line 94:
* [[Literal Minded]]: Never drive through Bessie's neighbourhood with a bumper sticker that says "How's my driving?" and a phone number unless you really want her to call that number and comment on your driving.
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: The crew may have gotten bored with the direction of season 1, so most season 2 episodes have some sort of unnecessary action sequences from nowhere, which seem highly out of context compared to season 1. (Water) Gun fights, (multiple) giant monster fights, sword fights, a high speed downhill chase, and piledriving a bear, just a to name a few.
* [[Meganekko]]: Bessie. The episode "Blindsided" shows that she does in fact look better with glasses.
* [[Merit Badges for Everything]]: And how: there are even merit badges for {{spoiler|farting and time travel}}.
* [[Missing Mom|Missing Parent]]
** [[Disappeared Dad|Bessie]], [[Missing Mom|Penny]], [[Disappeared Dad|Portia]] and Gwen are all in single parent families.
** Unresolved in Gwen's case. Since she has five younger siblings, including one who's still an infant, one suspects that her mom can't be that far away. And we don't know for certain that Mr. Wu, who runs the local Chinese restuarant, is Gwen's dad.
** Oddly enough, MF Gibbons is referred to as "Mrs. Gibbons", and not "Ms. Gibbons".
* [[New Age Retro Hippie]]: The Nameless Hippie, as well as Rainbow, the female hippie.
Line 142:
* [[Tongue on the Flagpole]]: Penny once tried to do this on purpose. [[Springtime for Hitler|She failed]].
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: Penny, The Honey Bees, Geniva, & Anton in "Ten Little Honey Bees".
* [[
* [[Ungrateful Bastard]]: Anton St. Germain
* [[Unstoppable Rage]]: Happy hulks out in "B-Chip" after his suppressed bad behavior breaks loose.
