History DannyPhantom / TropesAToG

** Despite being villains, Desiree, Penelope Spectra, and fan favorite Ember McLain are all very easy on the eyes.

** Vlad's residences are always a large, extravagant mansion.

* CuffsOffRubWrists: Freak Show in "Reality Trip."

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: "What You Want," "Memory Blank," both of which involve Desiree the wish-granting ghost.

* EverybodyLaughsEnding: "Attack of the Killer Garage Sale," "Public Enemies," "Double Cross My Heart", let's just say the series is riddled with this.

* BadFuture: The premise of "The Ultimate Enemy."

* DramaBomb: "The Ultimate Enemy." Period. The show had, for one and a half seasons, chugged along its storyline with a fairly cheerful and optimistic tone. Then "The Ultimate Enemy" aired and was, hands-down, the most serious and disturbing episode in the entire show, leaving many viewers speechless upon its first airing.

** Played with in the AlternateTimeline in "Ultimate Enemy." [[spoiler:Danny seeks Vlad's help when his friends and family are killed, and Vlad seems to be genuinely sympathetic when Danny arrives at his door]].

* {{Fanservice}}: There are quite a few good looking people on the show and BareYourMidriff and GoofyPrintUnderwear come up somewhat frequently. You can see where this is going.

* BareYourMidriff: Every developed female character, whether hero, villain, or supporting character has worn an exposing outfit at some point. [[PerkyGoth Sam]], [[AlphaBitch Paulina]], and quite a few female students of Casper High [[NoDressCode dress in navel-baring outfits]]. For Danny's RoguesGallery, there's [[EvilDiva Ember]], [[JerkassGenie Desiree]], [[EmotionEater Penelope Spectra in her second appearance]], and [[ClingyJealousGirl Kitty]]. Even Jazz had one twice (both times it was an Ember-like costume) and Maddie in her camping suit with her shirt tied over the navel.

* {{Exposition}}: Particularly awkward, repetitive uses of AsYouKnow, TellMeAgain, [[TalkingToHimself Talking to Themselves]], postponed questions, etc.

* FromZeroToHero: The series has shades of this, which is to be expected of something reminiscent of ''ComicBook/SpiderMan''. Danny Fenton is a loser who gains ghost powers and has to fight against the supernatural.

** In "Realy Trip", Danny uses the Reality Gauntlet to transform Lydia into a fish, a hammer, an apple, a teddy bear, and back to her normal self, in order to scare her away.* ForeignExchangeStudent: One episode has a Hungarian transfer student coming in to be Sam's RomanticFalseLead. [[spoiler:Turns out that he was an American guy putting on a show just to get closer to Sam]].

* BalefulPolymorph:
** Technus uses some sort of remote control to turn Danny into a cowboy, a model, and [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries Spock]].

* AwesomeMcCoolname: Danny ''Phantom''! In fact, Butch Hartman claims to have come up with the name first and then created the character around it.

** Sidney Pointdexter and his crew cut.

** [[spoiler: Danny himself gives up on his powers in "Phantom Planet" when the Masters' Blasters make him feel obsolete and he comes to the conclusion that all his powers do is put his loved one in danger. However, he soon returns to his superhero duties when the world is in danger and he recovers his powers.]]

* FunnyForeigner: Subverted with Gregor. He's not funny at all, [[spoiler:his real name is Elliot, and he's from Michigan]].
* FutureBadass: The Box Ghost.

* BunnyEarsLawyer
* ButtCannon: An episode where ghost erased Danny's memories, how to use his powers included, had him attempt to use his ghost ray by firing it from his hands. Instead, however, he somehow accidentally channels it through his rear. Naturally, Danny [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] the ridiculousness of it.

* ButterflyOfDoom: Cheat on your CAT, and the world gets boned. [[spoiler:[[NiceJobBreakingItHero By YOU!]]]]

** Vlad's residences.

* BirdPoopGag: Danny gets pooped on by one of the ghost vultures in the cold open to "Bitter Reunions".

* BookDumb: Danny (and Tucker).

* AbsenteeActor: "Bitter Reunions" was the only episode in the series where Sam and Tucker were completely absent.

* CricketChirps: "King Tuck" has cricket chirps heard after Tucker makes a joke about the name of Pharoah Duul Aman (as in "man, is this dull"). The cricket chirps are heard again when Dash then steals Tucker's joke, afterwards Dash raises his fist to persuade the other teens to laugh at the joke he just plagiarized.
