* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: Judith starts out annoying, arrogant, callous, more than a little jealous of Joan's other friends, incredibly irresponsible, and there are even hints that she might be trying to steal Adam away from Joan (or Joan away from Adam, for that matter). However, as episodes go on it is revealed that she is actually a very loyal and caring person when properly motivated. Key moments in her evolution include her blocking the bulldozer to keep it from destroying Joan's garden, her telling Adam how much she values Joan while they're building his kinetic sculpture, and her behavior surrounding Joan and Adam's first official date, which it is strongly implied she planned in its entirety. [[spoiler: And then, in a TearJerker moment, she is murdered]].

* AuthorTract: The show in general is very pro-cop (natural, given that Joan's father is the chief of police), but the episode "Drive, He Said" is particularly notable because it dismisses the idea of pervasive police racism, framing Kevin as "harsh" when he critiques police policy to Will's face (Will takes this as a personal accusation that he is a racist) and implying that Kevin's boss, a black woman, has been cherry-picking statistics to support an anti-police slant in her journalism.
* CriticalResearchFailure: The episode "St Joan" frequently refers to the "British" winning the Battle of Agincourt in 1415 and being driven out by Joan of Arc. [[UsefulNotes/BritainVersusTheUK For once]], this should be "English", given that no-one started referring to them as British until at least two centuries later and England and Scotland were very much separate countries at the time. (Given that the point of the episode is that the history teacher Mr. Dreisbach has lost his passion for the subject and is just going through the motions, this ''may'' be deliberate. But it probably isn't.)

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: The episode "The Rise and Fall of Joan Girardi" delivers two: Joan randomly going from a revered hero to a hated outcast based on one high school reporter asking completely unfounded questions about her heroism, and Adam's boss blatantly stealing his idea (i.e. committing plagiarism) and everyone's reaction is essentially "oh well, that's the risk of being a teen."
