* TheWesley: Megan -- the writers don't seem to think "spoiled brat always wins no matter what she does" ever gets irritating. [[{{Understatement}} It does.]]

* CompleteMonster: The criminals in "Drake and Josh Go Hollywood". They tricked Josh by replacing his G.O., kidnapped him and Drake in a warehouse, unfairly make lots of money, and after that, [[MoralEventHorizon THEY TRY TO DROWN DRAKE AND JOSH]]. Definitely horrible.

to:

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Do Walter and Audrey show signs of being responsible parents by grounding Drake and Josh when they do something terrible? Or are they just retarded based on how they never see Megan for what she really is or care about what the boys get put through?
* CompleteMonster: The criminals in "Drake and Josh Go Hollywood".Hollywood" definitely count. They tricked Josh by replacing his G.O., kidnapped him and Drake in a warehouse, unfairly make lots of money, stole a money machine, and after that, [[MoralEventHorizon THEY TRY TO DROWN DRAKE AND JOSH]]. JOSH. Definitely horrible.horrible-even [[EvenEvilHasStandards Megan]] was shocked by them.

** Don't forget how he looked in his cameo at the very end of the {{Victorious}} episode "Wok Star", too.

* JerkassWoobie: Drake. While he might be neglectful, he's hated by his English teacher for no reason, his sister is terrible, and has been through other crap as well.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Crazy Steve was meant as a one time gag, where the seemingly stoned (and mulletted) Gavin being the recurring weird buddy. Jerry Trainor hit that role so well that he was kept on and was brought on to ''{{iCarly}}'' as a main character.
** Mindy also appears to be a textbook example, as she returned some time after her initial appearance and took on a much larger recurring role ''dating'' Josh.


Added DiffLines:

* HilariousInHindsight: Watching the early episodes, where the characters laugh at the mere thought that someone would find Josh attractive over Drake becomes ''very'' funny when you remember how Josh Peck looked when the series ended...


Added DiffLines:

* UnpopularPopularCharacter: By the end of the last season, Josh is looking good. He lost ''all'' of his weight, he has a job, he has serious, long term girlfriends, and in general became just as hot as Drake, but more successful at life. Somehow Josh is still treated as if he is the loser of the two.

* CompleteMonster: Megan. No exaggeration.
** Sorry, but this troper disagrees. Yes, she's an awful brat who tortures her brothers, but a complete monster, no. She's helped her brothers on a few occasions and has been shown to actually love them. Plus, some of things she does are really just things many kids do to their older siblings as jokes (like when she got revenge on Drake & Josh for making her miss her friend's party). So, yeah, to say Megan is a complete monster is an exaggeration.

Removed Wall Banger entry (should only be used in Darth Wiki)


* WallBanger: So, Megan records humiliating footage of Drake & Josh & inserts it into the music video they had made for a school project, before capping it off with a shot of her confirming that it was her doing... And Drake & Josh ''don't'' show the video to their parents to prove that they aren't lying about Megan being evil?
** Hell, she has a website ''which features videos of her doing stuff to her brothers whilst they sleep'', her brothers know the site exists (And presumably, it's address) ''but never show it to their parents?''
** Of course, what makes you think that [[KarmaHoudini something wouldn't go wrong]] [[XanatosGambit in telling them anyway?]]
** In one episode, Drake and Josh find out that Walter is seeing another woman and start to believe that he's having an affair. When they finally catch him with her in a restaurant, they drive her away by dumping food on her and they feel they've accomplished something. However, their victory is cut short when Walter irritably points out that the woman is the head a news program called "Good Morning, Today" which, according to Walter, is dubbed the number one news program in America, and how she wants to elevate his position as weatherman to a higher status by making him become the weatherman on her show, [[{{Understatement}} which could have been the start of a better life for him and his family]]. Walter has no choice but to punish his sons for having this chance blown, by having pour food all over themselves, of course, but what some may not realize is that it was in fact Walter's own fault for being secretive about the whole thing. Should Drake and Josh have still been snooping around, they would have gotten in trouble anyway, but still, Walter should have tried to protect his family simply by not keeping it a surprise so that it wouldn't lead to the revelation of him cheating on his own wife. Or better yet, he should have told them right from the start who the woman really was before Drake and Josh drove her away, provided Drake and Josh confronted him about it first.
