15[[/index]]
16
17[[folder:A]]
18* AbhorrentAdmirer: Tootie to Timmy Turner for most of the series. He's mostly creeped out by her StalkerWithACrush tendencies, but the live action movie shows that he also just finds her unappealing in general.
19* AbsurdlyLongLimousine: Remy Buxaplenty has a limousine that's ridiculously long. When it first shows up, it takes a full 5 seconds for his limo to pull up.
20* AbsurdlyPowerfulSchoolJurisdiction: One episode features Truant Officer [[PunnyName Shallow Grave]] chasing down Timmy and an aged down Adam West, despite the fact Adam is normally an adult and thus wouldn't have been enrolled in Dimmsdale Elementary. Said truant officer is also a PsychoForHire BountyHunter who uses excessive force and has to be reminded he isn't allowed to do anything lethal to the kids. Ultimately justified because of RuleOfFunny and Shallow Grave being fired at the end when Timmy stages it to look like he had been with an adult the whole time (which he technically was...just one that was in the form of a kid), implying there are at least some limitations of school jurisdiction.
21* AbsurdlyPowerfulStudentCouncil: In ''Hail to the Chief'', where we learn that the student body presidents, among other things, have access to the school's lunch budget, the ability to cut in any line they want, and have their own set of Secret Service-like bodyguards.
22* AbusiveParents: Seen frequently, partially justified in that having Abusive Parents and[=/=]or ParentalNeglect is often a prerequisite for having fairy godparents.
23** Timmy's parents constantly belittle him, neglect him, and use all the money meant for him on selfish needs. This is PlayedForLaughs, and a big reason why Timmy has fairies.
24** Remy's parents spend two minutes a day with him, and don't even remember his name.
25** Unfortunately, even ''Cosmo and Wanda'' of all beings have displayed shades of this tropes, especially when it comes to prioritizing their biological son Poof over their godson Timmy. Special mention goes to Wanda poofing Timmy into an alligator pool when Timmy failed to to be a good babysitter AND after Timmy tried explaining himself.
26* AccidentalDanceCraze: In "Mind Over Magic", Timmy writhes in pain on the floor after reading too many minds at once. Chester and AJ think it's a "new birthday dance" and copy him.
27* AccidentalKiss: Multiple occur in ''Wishology Part III'', due to various people interrupting Timmy's various attempts to kiss Trixie.
28* AccidentalMisnaming: A lot of characters get Empty Bus Seat's- er, Tommy- er, ''Timmy's'' name wrong.
29** Ed Leadley does this with Mr. Turner, practically spelling his last name wrong multiple times.
30* ActionFigureJustification: Timmy learns a lesson where it's not nice to control people, as demonstrated by the character-shaped voodoo dolls, and that boys like Timmy shouldn't play with dolls, and that they should play '''action figures'''!
31* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: Timmy frequently gets cocky after wishing for a lot of power, which usually comes around to bite him in the ass. "A Wish Too Far" is a standout example, since after his wish to become popular, Timmy acts so rude to his fairies that he gets put on Fairy Trial to see if he even deserves to keep them.
32* AcronymsAreEasyAsAybeecee: At the start of "Smart Attack!", Timmy's attempt to do geography homework doesn't go well.
33-->'''Timmy:''' Where's America? All I can find on this stupid globe is (''points to "USA" on globe'') Yoosa!
34* ActorAllusion:
35** For the Crimson Chin (voiced by Jay Leno), Catman (voiced[[note]]mostly[[/note]] by Adam West), and Dr. Rip Studwell (voiced by show creator Butch Hartman).
36** Darran Norris (the voice of Cosmo, Jorgen von Strangle, and Timmy Turner's dad) plays Gordy the janitor in ''Series/NedsDeclassifiedSchoolSurvivalGuide''. In one episode, [[ItMakesSenseInContext he voices two Ken-looking dolls]] (as well as a female {{Franchise/Barbie}} lookalike), one buff and leathery and the other whipped and effeminate, using his Jorgen Von Strangle voice for leathery and his Cosmo (and Anti-Cosmo) voice for the effeminate and female dolls.
37** In ''Series/BigTimeRush'', Darran uses his Cosmo voice again when the janitor is knocked out and thinks he's a fairy.
38** In one episode, Chip Skylark (voiced by Chris Kirkpatrick) gives a NonSequiturThud of "The album comes out July 24th". Music/NSync actually had an album coming out on July 24th of the year that the episode first aired.
39** The charades plot of "Pipe Down" seems to have been inspired by Hartman's time as a contestant on the mid-1980s game show ''Series/BodyLanguage'', which revolved around charades.
40* {{Acrofatic}}: Principle Waxelplax can be astonishingly lithe, although no snack is safe from her.
41* ActuallyADoombot: In "Wish Fixers", Jorgen von Strangle seems to be working with the Pixies, but turns out to be a Pixie-controlled robot. When the real Jorgen finds out, he's not happy.
42* AdamWesting: Adam West guest voices as himself multiple times starting with the "Miss Dimmsdale" episode. He is portrayed here as being famous for playing Catman, a [[BatmanParody spoof of Batman]] as portrayed in [[Series/Batman1966 the 1966 TV show]], and under the delusion that he actually is the superhero he used to play on TV instead of just being an actor. "Lights...Camera...Adam" and "Birthday Bashed" are the only episodes he appears in where he isn't under the Catman delusion.
43* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Timmy, Vicky, and Tootie [[Film/AFairlyOddMovieGrowUpTimmyTurner all]] [[Film/AFairlyOddChristmas look]] [[Film/AFairlyOddSummer better]] with their live-action counterparts.
44** [[Creator/DrakeBell Timmy]] is portrayed by a [[Series/DrakeAndJosh familiar Nickelodeon favorite]].
45** The gorgeous Devon Weigel plays Vicky in the films and so does the equally lovely Creator/MaryKateWiles in ''[[Series/TheFairlyOddParentsFairlyOdder Fairly Odder]]''.
46** Like Timmy, [[Creator/DaniellaMonet Tootie]] is also played by an attractive [[Series/{{Victorious}} Nickelodeon icon]].
47* ADayInTheLimelight: "The Big Scoop" replays the events of "A Wish Too Far" from Chester and AJ's perspective, as they try to uncover how Timmy suddenly grew so popular. Timmy himself has less than a minute of screentime.
48* AddedAlliterativeAppeal: Timmy's middle name is Tiberius.
49* AdultsAreUseless: A main theme, mainly with Timmy's parents, is how stupid and oblivious adults are to the problems their children face.
50--> '''Mr. Turner:''' "Hey! She's key-scratching 'Vicky was here' on my car! I punished Timmy for key-scratching 'Vicky was here' on my car!"
51* AerithAndBob: The Yugopotamian royal family: King Grippulon, Queen Jipjorrulac, and their son Mark.
52* AnAesop: In "Ruled Out", Timmy gets fed up with all the rules his parents enforce when they won't let him watch a violent TV special, so he wishes that his parents would "[[ParentalNeglect care less]]" about him. At first, he enjoys it as he's allowed to do whatever he wants, but two weeks into the wish, Timmy gets sick from eating nothing but junk food and the Turners' hygiene and the house goes to pot. The whole episode demonstrates that while it might be annoying for your parents to not let you do whatever you want, the rules are there because your parents care about you and want you to be healthy and safe.
53* AesopAmnesia: Timmy, and to a lesser extent, Cosmo, only seem to learn from their mistakes for the duration of that episode.
54* AffablyEvil:
55** Anti-Cosmo, being Cosmo's exact opposite, is charismatic, refined, and charming. He's also pure evil, but he's very polite about it.
56** The Head Pixie has a mostly business-like demeanor and a dry sense of humor. He's conniving, but always plays fair and is motivated by profit rather malice.
57* AfraidOfClowns: In "A Bad Case of Diary-Uh!", Vicky [[KidsShouldntWatchHorrorFilms forces Timmy to watch scary movies]] and he mentions that clowns freak him out.
58* AgainWithFeeling:In "Ruled Out", Timmy gets fed up with his parents' rules and wishes that they "couldn't care less", which not only makes them more lenient but also completely lazy and irresponsible. But when Timmy runs off and puts himself in danger, their love and concern for him shines through and undoes the wish.
59-->'''Mom:''' Timmy!
60-->'''Dad:''' Be careful!
61-->'''Timmy:''' Oh, now they care? ({{Beat}}) Hey... now they care!
62
63* AgelessBirthdayEpisode: Averted in "Boys in the Band" (as "Abra-Catastrophe" states that he was about 9 when he got Cosmo and Wanda), and ''A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up Timmy Turner''. Played straight in "The Fairy Flu" and "Birthday Wish!" for Tootie and in "Birthday Bashed!" for Timmy.
64* TheAhnold: Fairy Sergeant Jorgen Von Strangle is the most muscular and powerful fairy around, and has the Germanic accent to boot.
65* AIIsACrapshoot: ''Future Lost,'' where Timmy wishes for the world to be like one of his futuristic comic books, not realizing that the book in question was the one where the robots turn evil and try to take over the world.
66* TheAlcatraz: Abra-catraz is an inescapable prison for magical beings.
67* AlienAmongUs: Mark Chang, as of ''New Squid in Town'', when he decides to hide out on Earth from his ArrangedMarriage to the princess of Bodacia.
68* AnAlienNamedBob: Mark Chang is an alien with a weirdly mundane name.
69* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Mark Chang is an alien who speaks normal English, and it's TotallyRadical, dude! And contains AcCENTUponTheWrongSylLABle.
70* TheAllegedComputer:
71** Mr. Crocker's computer is horrendously slow enough to qualify. When he tries uploading something, the progress bar goes into the ''negative'' percents.
72** Averted when Timmy's dad made one himself and it worked fine. [[DoomItYourself Unlike his other stuff.]]
73* AllianceOfAlternates: In "The Crimson Chin Meets Mighty Mom and Dyno Dad", Timmy called forth the many version of the Crimson Chin from the 30s pulp version to the 80s Edgy version to defeat the Nega-Chin.
74* AlliterativeName: Timmy Turner, Trixie Tang, The Crimson Chin, Doug Dimmadome and the list goes on.
75** In the case of Mr. Dimmadome, the alliteration has also become a prevalent RunningGag.
76--> '''Doug:''' I'm Doug Dimmadome, owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome!
77* AllCheeringAllTheTime:
78** In "A Bad Case of Diary-Uh", there was a competition wherein Timmy sabotaged Vicky. Her cheer was all her gross habits. The girl who won improvised a cheer indicating that she had none of Vicky's gross habits.
79** In the double-length episode "Timmy's Secret Wish", Timmy wishes for his own groupies that will constantly cheer for him. However, during Timmy's trial, the groupies will not leave Timmy alone with their constant cheering for him.
80* AllergicToLove: Chester gets "the hives" from girls, while Mark Chang's entire species is biologically averse to love or even cuteness. This is one reason why he can't marry Mandie, despite her being against all that is cute and cuddly.
81* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Every unmarried character is spurned by their crush.
82* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Very much the ordinary life of Timmy is being an outcast who is mocked and picked on by everyone else, and one of the reasons why he has Fairy Godparents.
83* AllThereInTheManual: The special ''The 77 Secrets of the Fairly Oddparents'' revealed, among other things, Cosmo and Wanda's full names.
84* AlmightyMom: Mrs. Turner tries this occasionally, especially in the earlier episodes. To the point where her super-powered persona occasionally wished up by Timmy is named "Mighty Mom", and in the episode where Timmy first makes the "Mighty Mom and Dyno-Dad" wish, their explicit cause for fighting crime is summed up by [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep Timmy's Dad]]:
85--> '''Mrs. Turner:''' "We don't have time for Timmy... we're trying to make the world ''safe'' for Timmy!"
86* AlmostKiss: [[spoiler:Several between Timmy and Trixie in ''Wishology Part III'']].
87* AlphaBitch: Trixie, "the most popular girl in school." Parodied, to the point where even her BetaBitch Veronica is obsessively jealous of her to the point of having a shrine dedicated to Trixie in her bedroom.
88** LovableAlphaBitch: [[DependingOnTheWriter Depending on the episode]], Trixie was shown to have more depth, being much nicer than thse initially appears and being somewhat uncomfortable with her popularity. [[CharacterizationMarchesOn This has largely been discarded in later episodes]], which have eliminated most of her more endearing qualities.
89* AlwaysChaoticEvil: The anti-fairies, who exist only to cause mayhem.
90* AmateurFilmMakingPlot: "Movie Magic" features Timmy entering and trying to win a film-festival to impress Trixie. He and his friends create a film of them badly reenacting other films, which they liked but the other kids hated. Timmy tries again, having Cosmo and Wanda poof him to where some action is taking place so he can film it, and has [[Creator/SylvesterStallone "Sylvester Calzone"]] as the main star. However, his friends are sad at being replaced, so he shows the original film at the festival and wins an award for "best comedy", although Trixie is unimpresses as doesn't think very highly of the genre.
91* AmbiguouslyBi: Catman has flirted with a few women over the course of the series and is implied in "Cat-Astrophe" to have had nine wives, but also fell in love with Timmy's Father at a beauty pageant. He did mistake Timmy's father for a female, but even when Timmy told him that was his dad, he didn't care.
92--> '''Catman:''' "Say, think I can get her phone number?"
93--> '''Timmy:''' "That's no she, that's my dad!"
94--> '''Catman:''' "So you have it then!"
95** Mr. Bickles typically comes off as a gay stereotype since he is a flamboyant drama teacher who is [[AllGaysLoveTheater extremely emotional about theater and art]], though he did show attraction to Princess Mandie in "What's the Difference?"
96* AmbiguouslyGay:
97** Cupid, the pink-haired god of love with extremely camp mannerisms who in later episodes spends a lot of time around noted hunk Juandissimo. The only time he showed any attraction to a woman was chasing down Mama Cosma after being hit with one of his own arrows. Given a nod in one episode while at a Pancake Party.
98--> '''Cupid:''' "I'm in love with Jack!... -Flap-jack, that is!"
99** Sanjay, one of the outcasts, who seems very obsessed with Timmy in later episodes (one episode makes a deliberate parallel between him and [[StalkerWithACrush Tootie,]] and in one episode he dates a girl named Kimmy who looks a ''lot'' like Timmy, which creeps Timmy out.
100* AmericaIsStillAColony: In the episode "Twistory", which eventually got banned from airing on {{Creator/Nickelodeon}} as it was considered to take the anti-British sentiment a bit too far. Timmy wishes the founding fathers to appear in his tree house to help him with a history report. Their removal from history, however, turns the US back into a British colony. Everyone gets [[BritishTeeth bad teeth]], all the houses of Dimmsdale turn into tudor thatched room cottages (despite construction being very past that point by 1772 in the UK) and there is no electricity due to Creator/BenjaminFranklin never discovering it -- completely in ignorance of the discoveries in the fields of electromagnetism by the Englishman Michael Faraday. Timmy then has to go back in time to stop Benedict Arnold from convincing the revolutionaries to surrender.
101* AMindIsATerribleThingToRead: In "Mind Over Magic", where Timmy wished for telepathic powers. Crocker exploits this trope against him.
102* AmusingInjuries: Every episode has comedic injuries subjected to people, mainly Timmy and Cosmo.
103* AndIMustScream: Every Unwished Wish is put into storage, even if they're sentient. And they live forever... [[spoiler: Oddly subverted after Timmy discovers the island where most of his unwished enemies/objects end up. He makes a few wishes to ensure that the island is as comfortable as possible for everyone trapped there. These improvements include luxurious resorts and servants in his image that accept physical violence as payment.]]
104* AndImTheQueenOfSheba: In "Marked Man", Chloe doesn't think aliens exist. After Timmy describes all the weird traits of his friend Mark Chang, Chloe says, "And I'm the queen of the planet you're full of baloney".
105* AnimalsFearNeutering:
106** "Dog's Day Afternoon" entails Timmy Turner wishing that he'd switch minds with Vicky's dog and having to undo the wish when it turns out that Vicky has scheduled an appointment to get her dog "fixed".
107** "The Big Superhero Wish" has this happen when Dr. Crocktopus imprisons Cosmo and Wanda in an anti-magic sphere while they are in the forms of Clefto and Ace the Chin Hounds and threatens to "fix" them, Cosmo responding by pleading that he doesn't want to get "fixed".
108** "The Past and the Furious" has Sparky cover his groin and tell Timmy that he shouldn't ever say "fixed" to a dog when Timmy mentions fixing the timeline.
109* AnimationAgeGhetto: Lampshaded in "Movie Magic" when Trixie says the only form of entertainment lower than [[ComedyGhetto comedy]] is animation.
110* AntagonistInMourning: Vicky in ''Wishology'', briefly, when she thinks Timmy has been swallowed by The Darkness.
111* AnticlimaxCut: When Timmy, Cosmo and Wanda entered a scavenger hunt, one of the items was a Pot of Gold from the 15th century. Timmy commented on how leprechauns are usually protective of their gold. Cut to a leprechaun willingly giving them his pot.
112* AntiGravityClothing: The fairy crowns are always shown floating above their fairies' heads.
113* TheAntiGrinch: In "Christmas Every Day", Timmy Turner wishes for Christmas to be every day. This backfires as everyone grows tired of neverending Christmases, and the fairies are unable to cancel the wish as their magic was sent to empower Santa Claus. Only by convincing children all over the world to write letters to Santa and have him end the neverending Christmas was the wish finally broken.
114* AnticipatoryLipstick: Done in the episode "Stupid Cupid" when Wanda is hypnotized by one of Cupid's love arrows, and stalks Wandissimo as she puts on lipstick to kiss him while he attempts to hold her off, but effect of the arrows is broken before she can kiss him.
115** Also featured in the episode "Love at First Height" when Vicky mistakes an older Timmy for a supermodel, and puts on lipstick in an attempt to kiss him in the Tunnel of Love. However Timmy returns to normal as they leave the tunnel and she ends up kissing the normal version of him instead, to both their dismay.
116* AnvilOnHead: Actually averted in "Presto Chang-O", Wanda poofed away a split second before she could get Mama Cosma's parting gift of an anvil.
117* AppleForTeacher: "Teacher's Pet" has AJ ''clone'' an apple for Mr. Crocker, afterwards he is warned by his time-traveling future self that he shouldn't do that. After Present AJ explains to Future AJ that his warning came too late, they both panic.
118* ArchEnemy: Timmy has Vicky and Mr. Crocker. He has many enemies but these two are at the top of the list.
119** Which grows and grows the more wishes he makes turn against him.
120* ArmorPiercingQuestion: How Timmy exposes Alden Bitterroot as a witch.
121-->'''Timmy''': Alden Bitterroot! I accuseth thee of being-eth... a ''witch!'' ...eth. \
122'''Bitterroot''': Thou art mad! Mad, I say-eth!\
123'''Timmy''': Oh? Then why don't your feet touch the ground?\
124[''the camera pulls back to show Bitterroot is levitating; the townspeople gasp'']\
125'''Mayor''': You know, some of us were quite perplexed about that.
126** In the episode, "This Is Your Wish" where the audience is about to vote to make Cosmo move back to Fairy World because he's a danger to himself and everyone around him. Before they do, Timmy asks them one question:
127-->'''Timmy:''' Hey, before you push that button, think about it: Do you ''really'' want him back here in Fairy World?
128-->''Everyone looks at Cosmo sucking on his wand like a pacifier. Cue MassOhCrap from the audience, who all immediately vote to let Cosmo stay with Timmy''
129* ArmyOfTheAges: In "The Crimson Chin Meets Mighty Mom and Dyno Dad", Timmy assembles an army of [[ShowWithinAShow Crimson Chins]], each with their own EraSpecificPersonality.
130* ArrangedMarriage: Mark has an arranged marriage with Princess Mandie. Mark isn't happy about it, leaves her at the altar, and Mandie's appearances all revolve around her trying to drag Mark back to the altar. [[{{Yandere}} Or kill him]], depending on her mood.
131* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking:
132** Crocker's "birthday wish list". What does he want? To rule them all, to make them pay, and... a jet ski.
133** In "Emotion Commotion": "Just think of it like a dive at your local swimming pool, except with fire, ravenous sharks, dangerously sharp scissors, and one ''really angry tourist''."
134** In the episode where Wanda was missing (with noir elements), Timmy's dad tries to argue that he could be a suspect because he steals cable, rips the tags off of mattresses, and jaywalks.
135** The [[FunWithAcronyms MERF]] fires several things at the rogue destructinator in an attempt to destroy it. The last "weapon" mentioned by name is a [[KitchenSinkIncluded ginormous kitchen sink]].
136** In "Hassle In The Castle", it's revealed that the three Hall of Infamy children's infamous wishes were Maryann wishing for [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarI Archduke Franz Ferdinand to be assassinated]], Sammy wishing for tornadoes to always hit mobile homes, and Pierre wishing for the French to always be rude to American tourists.
137** Timmy's grandpa discussing old cartoon violence in "The Good Old Days:"
138--> '''Pappy:''' The generation that grew up on these started three wars, two police actions, and the National Hockey League!
139* ArtisticLicenseBiology: In one episode, Timmy takes Poof to the rabid animal zoo, which includes rabid alligators. Rabies is a mammalian disease. You do the math.
140* ArtisticLicenseMarineBiology: The episode "Something's Fishy!" treats the giant squid animal as a mythical creature that may or may not be real. Apparently, the writers were unaware that it is an actual marine animal known to exist.
141* ArtisticLicensePhysics: Lampshaded by Wanda when Cosmo is trying to light candles to complete a candlelit dinner. While inside of Timmy's fishbowl.
142--> '''Timmy''': Hey, Wanda, what's new?
143--> [''Cosmo successfully lights the candles underwater'']
144--> '''Wanda''': Uhh... the laws of physics?
145* ArtEvolution:
146** In the ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' shorts, the characters' appearances were slightly different from those in the show itself. For example, many of the characters had stretched heads and bodies, Wanda's skin tone was a little more pink, and Timmy's eyes were always crossed. In an issue of Magazine/{{Nickelodeon Magazine}}, Creator/ButchHartman, the creator, mentioned that Timmy looks much cuter than when he first appeared.
147** About halfway through Season 10, the series switched from traditional animation to Flash animation, and outsourced all of the storyboarding and animation to Elliott Animation, a Canadian animation studio most known for animating the ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' series. The same studio also animated another one of Creator/ButchHartman's shows, ''WesternAnimation/BunsenIsABeast''. This led to some of the character models getting slightly altered (Cosmo and Wanda's eyes are slightly more oval-shaped, Crocker's eyes are almost completely circular, ect.).
148* ArtShift: Many, many times. (For example: "The Good Old Days" when Timmy and his grandpa are poofed into classic cartoons, which they both love.)
149* ASharedSuffering: Vicky for Timmy (as his BabysitterFromHell) and Tootie (as her [[BigBrotherBully bullying older sister]]), and depending on the episode expands it for whoever she's babysitting/watching over.
150* AsHimself: "TV's Adam West!"
151-->'''Adam West''': Where?! [''chuckles''] Man, I never get tired of that.
152* AsianAirhead: Trixie Tang. Earlier episodes suggested that this was ObfuscatingStupidity to protect her reputation, but this became a more permanent part of her characterization later on.
153* AsinineAlternateActivity:
154** Timmy's dad sets the child locks on the TV in the episode "Ruled Out". It causes the channel to change to a parody of Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood just as "The Legend of the Sewer Gator" is about to get violent.
155** In "That Old Black Magic," before Timmy was old enough to go to the exciting amusement park Adrenaland, his parents took him to Escalator Land, an amusement park that just consisted of an escalator. Timmy was bored, but his parents were thrilled. At the end of the episode, [[spoiler:Adrenaland sinks into the earth]], so the Turners decide to go to Escalator Land for their day of fun.
156* AthleticallyChallenged:
157** Bucky [=McBadbat=], Chester's father, is said to have been the worst baseball player of all time. Tellingly, his own baseball card shows him holding his baseball bat upside down. Because of his infamy, Bucky wears a BrownBagMask over his head.
158** Chester himself has shown that he inherited his father's less-than-stellar baseball skills in the episode "Foul Balled". He scores 27 outs in one swing at a little league game, earning ire from the crowd. Timmy makes a wish for him to become the greatest baseball player there is. After which Chester excels, to the point where he plays every position, winning all the games and earning the ire of his team as he ends up being a glory hound. But he goes back to his inept ways after he and Timmy [[PlotMandatedFriendshipFailure temporarily end their friendship]] after the latter confronts the former. Because Timmy phrased it as he wishes "[[ExactWords his friend was the greatest baseball player there is]]" and since the friendship ended, it cancels out the wish.
159* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Timmy and Cosmo.
160--> '''Timmy''': My name is Timmy. I have a short attention span. And, uh... [''pauses for a moment, then just walks off'']
161** And at least in "The Big Scoop", a RunningGag is that Principal Waxaplax tends to lose her train of thought as soon as food is tossed into her line of sight.
162* AttractiveBentGender: Timmy in ''The Boy Who Would Be Queen'' unknowingly gets the attention of A.J. after wishing himself female.
163* AuthorityInNameOnly: The Mayor. He doesn't seem to have any real power, he's just a glorified tour guide with a cushy job.
164* AwardBaitSong: Cosmo and Wanda's duet "Floating With You" from "School's Out: The Musical" is a slow love ballad parody of this, and was in fact sung to make Jorgen so emotional he wouldn't notice Cosmo and Wanda escape.
165* AxCrazy:
166** Vicky completely relishes inflicting all sorts of pain on the children she babysits. She even literally uses an axe every now and then as part of her reign of terror over Timmy.
167** UsefulNotes/GeorgeWashington is portrayed in "Twistory" as having a compulsion to chop up anything made of wood he sees.
168[[/folder]]
169
170[[folder:B]]
171* BabiesMakeEverythingBetter: Poof was born because of this trope, with Timmy seeing Cosmo and Wanda yearning for a child and wishing one into existence. Since then, Cosmo and Wanda are noticably more amicable towards each other. This is subverted with Foop, who made his parents happy in his debut, but makes everybody else miserable.
172* BabyMorphEpisode:
173** In "Baby Face", Timmy wishes to be turned into a baby in order to hide from Francis.
174** As part of a plan to get Poof some other fairy babies to play with, "Poof's Playdate" has Timmy Turner invite Jorgen Von Strangle, Cupid, the Tooth Fairy and Juandissimo so he can have Cosmo and Wanda turn them into infants. When Timmy takes Poof and his new playmates on a wagon ride, Cosmo and Wanda decide to turn themselves into babies to join the fun, which results in Timmy having to distract his parents until he can find a way to restore his godparents and the four fairies he invited over to adulthood.
175* BabysFirstWords: In the climax of "School of Crock", Poof reaches the final stage of Pooferty and utters his first eligible words: "I!...Want!...My!...''Rattle!''"
176* BabysitterFromHell: Vicky, the demonic patron of this trope vows to make Timmy's life a living hell whenever his parents hire her to watch over him.
177** As shown in "Tiny Timmy!", her heart is literally a black hole and Kindness never showed up for his duty. And according to "Vicky Loses Her Icky," she constantly has an evil bug up her pants.
178* BackingAwaySlowly: In "That's Life!", Mrs. Turner wins a gardening contest and is awarded a prize tulip, which instantly wilts because [[TouchOfDeath "Everything I touch DIIIIIIES!"]] Everyone present takes a step back.
179-->'''Mr. Turner:''' [[BlackComedy Oh, Dinkleburg! Care to give my wife a congratulatory hand touch?]]
180* BackToSchool: In "The Old Man and the C-", Mr. Turner entered a GameShow titled [[Series/AreYouSmarterThanAFifthGrader Are You Brighter than a 4th Grader?]] and lost because he answered "sea cucumber" to all questions except the one where "sea cucumber" was the right answer. He then admitted he didn't finish fourth grade and his wife forced him to go back to school to set an example for their son.
181* BadFuture: The beginning of Channel Chasers, where Vicky has taken over the world.
182* BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad: The Yugopotamians love garbage and find evil people like Vicky incredibly attractive, but are deathly afraid of sweet things like chocolate and stuffed animals.
183* BadlyBatteredBabysitter: Timmy whenever his godbrother Poof is concerned, but also when Vicky briefly gets control of his fairies after he ages her down.
184* BalconyWooingScene: In "Love Struck", Timmy sings a broadway-esque serenade in front of Trixie's balcony, in hopes of becoming her Valentine. It didn't work.
185* BalanceBetweenGoodAndEvil: An anti-fairy is born for every fairy, so after Poof's birth, he is eventually given his own Anti-Fairy counterpart Foop.
186* BalloonBelly: Exaggerated in "Just Desserts" when everyone gets huge stomachs after eating nothing but junk food. They have to roll their bodies around to get anywhere.
187* BankruptcyBarrel: In "The Good Old Times", Cosmo and Wanda accidentally cause the Great Depression (by tripping over a stock chart and rotating it 90°). Cue several panicked investors running around while wearing barrels.
188* BarbarianHero: Timmy in ''Timmy the Barbarian''. It's an obvious parody of Conan, the TropeCodifier.
189* BarbaricBully: Francis. He's about twice the size of everyone else at his school, he wears heavy chains on his clothes, he has grey skin, he apparently feeds first graders to his dog, and he's brought medieval weapons to school on at least one occasion. You know...just like bullies in real life.
190* BasementDweller: Denzel Crocker and [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep The Geek Who Writes The Crimson Chin]].
191--> '''Crimson Chin:''' "Who writes this stuff anyway!?"
192--> '''Timmy:''' "Some 40 year old dude who lives with his mom."
193--> '''Crimson Chin:'''"Any money in it?"
194--> '''Timmy:''' [[PunctuatedForEmphasis "Lives. With. His. Mom."]]
195*** Made even funnier when that 40-year-old dude turns out to be Creator/PattonOswalt, [[ActorAllusion a comic enthusiast and openly nerdy comedian.]]
196** Cosmo is established to have still lived with his mother Mama Cosma before he met Wanda.
197* BatmanGambit: in Tiny Timmy
198-->'''Dad:''' Now me and Mom are going out tonight so whatever you do don't break our new $50,000 vase
199-->(several vase breaks and fixes later)
200-->'''Dad:''' $50,000 vase! And Timmy! We're home!
201-->(wow, the house is so clean scene and small dialogue)
202-->'''Timmy:''' Boring conversation (leans on pedestal holding vase) Can't focus.
203-->(crash)
204-->Vicky: Alright! Timmy broke the vase!
205-->'''Mom and Dad:''' [[Beat glance]] We're Rich!(Beat)Eeeeer
206-->'''Vicky:''' [[FlatWhat What?]]
207-->'''Dad:''' Vicky, that vase was worth and ''insured'' for $50,000. We only bought it for a buck!
208-->'''Timmy:''' Where'd you get it for a dollar?
209-->'''Mom and Dad:''' [[BorrowedCatchphrase Internet]].
210-->'''Dad:''' And, thanks to Timmy's tiny attention span, we just earned $49,999!
211-->'''Vicky:''' *to vase* I hate you.
212* BatmanParody:
213** One of the show's recurring characters is a fictional version of Creator/AdamWest who's under the delusion that he's a superhero he used to play on TV called Catman, who parodies Batman as depicted in [[Series/Batman1966 the 1966 television show]].
214** One of the Power Pals (spoofs of ''WesternAnimation/{{Superfriends}}'') in the episode of the same name is a Batman stand-in named Dark Mark, described as a "mysterious brooding creature of friendship".
215* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Lampshaded. "Let's go to the planet of Almost Enough Atmosphere." Thing is, fairies don’t need oxygen to survive unless they make themselves human.
216* BeardedBaby: Foop is born with a mustache and a goatee.
217* BeatWithoutABut: In "Old Man and the C-", Timmy begins a sentence by saying that he "may hate school..."
218-->'''Wanda''': But?
219-->'''Timmy''': No, that was it.
220* BeautifulAllAlong: [[spoiler:Tootie]], according to ''Grow Up Timmy Turner'' where she's lost her glasses and hyperactive attitude and is now a caring beautiful philanthropost.
221* BeautyIsNeverTarnished:
222** Zig-zagged in "Just Desserts". After everyone has turned fat, the only recurring females we see are Wanda and Trixie. Also, unlike most of the guys and Wanda, Trixie isn't ''grossly'' fat.
223** The outtakes for ''WesternAnimation/SchoolsOutTheMusical'' have one where Cosmo and Wanda burst out laughing because Cosmo farted mid-sentence, followed by another take where it's implied ''Wanda'' cut the cheese this time (quite tellingly, Wanda isn't shown passing gas on-camera).
224* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Quite often, Timmy learns the downsides of his wishes the hard way.
225* BecomingTheCostume: During the second season HalloweenEpisode, due to Timmy wishing for everything to be "real and scary." This becomes a problem due to the popular kids having dressed as four robots that make up a doomsday weapon.
226* TheBermudaTriangle: Cosmo and Wanda put Unwish Island, one giant ContinuityCavalcade that holds all of Timmy's un-wished wishes, inside the Bermuda Triangle.
227* BeggarWithASignboard: used twice. In the Season 1 episode "The Big Problem", Timmy says that one advantage of being an adult is not needing a babysitter. In his Imagine Spot, Vicky is on the street corner, holding up a cup and a sign that says, "Will babysit for food". The handsome adult Timmy stops by and puts a coin in the cup, then pulls it away, as the coin is attached to a string. As he does this, he says, "Psyche!" to Vicky and drives away. In the Season 5 episode "Timmy TV", after his own show, "Leave It to Binky", is cancelled, Binky ends up on the streets holding a sign that reads “Will act for food”.
228* BerserkBoardBarricade: Often, and always useless, as Timmys parents or Vicky have a habit of crashing through the wall. (And completely pointless against Fairies.)
229* BerserkButton: Fairies, for Timmy and Crocker: Timmy, if you do bad things to them; Crocker, if you so much as mention them.
230** The Yugopotamians dislike anything that is sweet and cute. Or any sweets, for that matter.
231** Poof has one, too: Don't do bad things to his parents.
232* BestialityIsDepraved:
233** Naturally, only [[DownplayedTrope a kid-friendly version]] in "Super Poof". In the aquarium, a non-sapient octopus instantly falls in love with Mark Chang. (Double Standard, octopus on alien...nope, not enough examples for a new subtrope.
234** "Love at First Bark" has Timmy wish that his father loved Dinkleberg's dog Peaches as much as Sparky did in hopes that it would make his dad stop preventing Sparky from seeing Peaches. The unexpected result is that Timmy's Dad falls in love with Peaches and competes against Sparky for her affections.
235** The episode "Animal Crockers" involves a species of animals called Crockeroos who happen to resemble Mr. Crocker. Crocker's mom notices the likeness when the Crockeroos appear on the news and asks her son if he married a monkey without telling her.
236* BetterIfNotBornPlot: In the rather infamous "It's a Wishful Life" episode, Timmy is feeling so underappreciated that he wishes he was never born. He gets poofed out of existence, and Jorgen proceeds to show him how everyone's lives are without him. Timmy assumes that at least ''one'' person's life must be worse without him around...but nope. Apparently, if Timmy were never born, his parents would be rich, his friends successful and happy, Mr. Crocker normal, Vicky no longer evil, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking the Cubs would win the World Series]], etc. Timmy manages to reverse his wish and tries to be a better person as a result.
237* BettyAndVeronica: Tootie and Trixie. ''You Doo'' and ''Take and Fake'' are the two only episodes where Tootie is aware of Timmy's crush on Trixie.
238** Trixie also has a friend who is actually named Veronica, and the story plays out the same way. Ironically, Veronica seems to play the "Betty" role.
239* BigBad: Each of the movies has one.
240** Mr. Crocker for ''Abra-Catastrophe'', especially in the third act when he successfully captures Wanda and becomes ruler of the world.
241** Vicky in ''Channel Chasers,'' due to getting ahold of one of Timmy's magical remotes and planning to change world history with it to make herself a dictator.
242** The Head Pixie in ''School's Out'', which turns out to be the consummation of a 30 year plan to gain control of the planet.
243** Anti-Cosmo and the Head Pixie are a BigBadDuumvirate in ''Fairly Oddbaby,'' as they have a shared interest in the first fairy baby birth in thousands of years.
244** The Darkness serves as one for ''Wishology'', though he is later replaced by his DragonAscendant.
245* BigBallOfViolence: often played straight and parodied, but used in a very JustForFun/{{egregious}} way in ''Twistory'', when [[spoiler: Washington and Arnold beat the crap out of each other]], accompanied by the inevitable UnsoundEffect: [[spoiler: ''"FIGHT FOR FREEDOM!"'']]
246* BigDamnHeroes: In "Dream Goat," when Timmy is getting chased by an angry mob for setting Chompy free, Chompy comes in time (with his family) to save Timmy.
247* BigEater: Chester, due to poverty meaning he doesn't get to eat very often. Mark and Grippulon, due to being aliens with literally bottomless stomachs.
248* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti:
249** The ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' short "Scout's Honor" has Timmy trying to find Bigfoot to earn a merit badge. When he meets Bigfoot, he turns out to be an extremely hairy NewAgeRetroHippie whose real name is Victor Bigfootowskowitz.
250** Bigfoot is briefly shown during the reprise of the Pixie Rap that is part of the song "Ten and in Charge" in ''WesternAnimation/SchoolsOutTheMusical''.
251* BiggerOnTheInside: Cosmo and Wanda's tiny castle in the fishbowl is as big as any real castle when Timmy goes inside.
252** Timmy {{lampshade|Hanging}}s this about his room in "Formula for Disaster" when Poof wrecks havoc in it.
253* BigNo: Characters yelling "No" in response to events they don't want to happen is also frequently used. Nice disproportionate example: Chester wants to play with AJ but AJ just goes off to college [[ChildProdigy "hey, it's just for two weeks!"]].
254* BigOlEyebrows: Most characters, due to Butch Hartman's trademark art style.
255* BizarreAndImprobableGolfGame: Magic-based cheating in an otherwise normal game is the climax of "Pixies Inc."
256* BlackAndNerdy: AJ is the current trope image. He's black and the smartest kid at Timmy's school, boasting a straight A average, multiple academic awards, [[ExaggeratedTrope and a secret laboratory from which he consults for the US government and the United Nations.]] Interestingly, he's not as nerdy as Timmy in the conventional sense, not sharing his interest in video games and comic books.
257* BlackComedy: Prevalent, even in a family-friendly fantasy-comedy cartoon.
258** "That's Life" has Timmy's mother cry that everything she touches dies, which prompts Timmy's dad to ask [[SitcomArchNemesis the Dinklebergs]] to come over and give his wife a "congratulatory hand-touch". The main plot is also driven by Timmy's wish causing his deceased pet gerbil Eddie (who starved to death because of his dad neglecting him while he was away at summer camp) to come back as a zombie that tries to get Timmy's parents killed in retribution.
259** "Knighty Knight" has King Arthur reduced to a skeleton after trying to attack a dragon. Timmy goes "Uh, guys" to Cosmo and Wanda, who then use their magic to bring King Arthur back to life while assuring Timmy that they can fix it.
260** When confronted by the angry villagers while inside the world of the book ''Literature/{{Frankenstein}}'' in "Shelf Life", Timmy lowers the threat by changing the word "villagers" to "ill", which makes them all become very sick and bandaged. One girl in particular lifts her bandaged arm, only for it to then break off.
261** "Sooper Poof" has a couple of gags where Timmy's parents catch their son when [[NotWhatItLooksLike he appears to be ready to drop Poof into a tank of sharks and is holding him just inches away from an appliance used to slice meat]].
262** "Farm Pit" has a gag where Cosmo thinking that Cleveland is like the Land of Oz has him dressed like Dorothy Gale, implying that he got the dress by taking the clothes of a corpse he found at a crime scene.
263* {{Blackmail}}: One of the ways that Vicky tortures Timmy psychologically and keeps him in line. One of the earliest examples involves tricking Timmy into saying he steals from his mother and recording it to use later.
264* BlahBlahBlah:
265** Lampshaded in that the opposite sexes need a translator to figure out what the other is saying.
266** This happens with fairy babies as they go through "Pooferty", when they transition from saying "Poof, poof" to eligible words. During the transition, they will constantly speak nonsense gibberish which nobody can understand.
267* BlatantLies: The show made a RunningGag of Timmy claiming he got various wish-created items off the Internet.
268* BondVillainStupidity: ''Back to the Norm'' is all about this. Crocker uses Norm the Genie's magnificent powers to create a variety of overly elaborate schemes to kill Timmy and brushing off Norm's suggestion to simply wish Timmy to Mars. Eventually Norm has simply had enough and gives his lamp to Timmy, who promptly [[HoistByHisOwnPetard wishes Crocker to Mars to suffocate.]]
269* BookDumb: Debatable. Timmy barely goes beyond an F. However, this could not entirely be his fault, since his teacher, Mr. Crocker, is obsessed with giving everyone in the class F's (save for AJ). In a few episodes he actually does pull out good grades on his assignments.
270* BookEnds: So far, the third live-action movie.
271--> Crocker: This assignment is very well written! But I'll give it an "F" Anyway!
272* BoringVacationSlideshow: In "Inspection Detection", Timmy is accused of being a shoplifter on the day of his fairy godparents' inspection from Jorgen Von Strangle, as some of the stolen items are the exact same ones needed for the inspection (including a snowmobile and a wax statue of the Crimson Chin). While Timmy sets out to [[ClearMyName clear his name]], Cosmo and Wanda try to stall Jorgen by showing them their vacation slides. Jorgen is not amused.
273-->'''Cosmo:''' And this is us on vacation in Egypt.
274-->'''Wanda:''' Cosmo had food poisoning.
275-->'''Cosmo:''' And this is us in Paris.
276-->'''Wanda:''' Food poisoning.
277-->'''Cosmo:''' Fancy food poisoning! And this is me getting food poisoning in Kidneyland.
278* BornLucky: Dinkleberg, as often referenced by Timmy's jealous Dad.
279* BornOfMagic: Many wishes granted by the [[strike:Odd]] Godparents result in a character being magically generated
280** The Crimson Chin was wished into reality from his comic book by Timmy after he was disappointed by poor cosplay.
281** Timmy's imaginary friend [[{{Tulpa}} Gary]] was wished into existence, only for him to become Timmy's sworn enemy. After escaping Timmy's mind a second time, Gary rallied the other sentient beings Timmy had wished up, and then wished away--which turned out to mean being sent to a place called "Unwish Island". Somehow, their continued living was portrayed as a FateWorseThanDeath, as opposed to being magically poofed out of existence.
282* BoxAndStickTrap: Crocker attempts to use the old "box held up by stick to be knocked over by prey" trap in "Crocker of Gold" to catch a leprechaun, using Irish stew as bait. Instead of a real leprechaun, the trap captures Cosmo dressed as one.
283* BracesOfOrthodonticOverkill: Chester in ''Hex Games''. They're capable of storing things like phonograph and and entire skateboarding ramp. This gag is only used sparingly afterward.
284* BrainInAJar: In the ZeeRust episode ''Future Lost'', the BigBad is just a giant brain in a vat. Apparently, he only started the robot rebellion because, being a giant brain in a vat, he has literally nothing better to do.
285* BrainwashedBride: The episode "Truth Or Cosmoquences" has Cosmo attending a high school reunion and bringing pop-diva Britney Britney as his "clearly not hypnotized" trophy wife.
286* BrainWithAManualControl: In the episode "Tiny Timmy", Timmy travels through Vicky's body and reaches her brain. He finds out her emotions are controlled by little people in chairs, one of whom, who represented her kindness, never showed up for work. Timmy turns on the machine himself, [[Main/TookALevelInKindness making Vicky a kind and caring person]] as a result... [[StatusQuoIsGod until one of the little people see Timmy left it on and turn if off]].
287* BrainyBaby: Poof's Anti-Fairy counterpart Foop is an evil genius and able to speak in full sentences the moment he's out of Anti-Wanda's womb.
288* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: When asked about his sudden popularity and flashy new clothes in "A Wish Too Far":
289-->'''Timmy:''' Internet? Uh... inheritance? ... I inherited the internet!
290** Also in "Vicky Gets Fired".
291-->'''Mom:''' We gonna get real!
292-->'''Dad:''' We gonna get famous!
293-->'''Mom:''' We gonna get real famous!
294* BreakingTheFourthWall: When the TV spits out a videotape on Dad's butt in "Talkin' Trash":
295-->'''Dad:''' (screams) What is this show rated?
296* BreakoutCharacter: Dark Laser and by extension his RunningGag Flipsy toy. Initially just a one-off villain and gag respectively in ''Hard Copy'', they became recurring characters by popular demand.
297* BrightIsNotGood: The Gigglepies. They're a cheery, saccharine race of stuffed animals...who conquer planets by either a hypnotic control over the population or terrifying them into compliance.
298* BrightnessShadows: Does this when invoking ScaryFlashlightFace in broad daylight. It's also done more naturally during occasional explosions that are meant to look cinematic, casting a shadow that would not exist.
299* BrokenPedestal: Chip Skylark is broke and his record company pays all the bills; anyone who finds this out won't love him anymore. Vicky became this to Chip after learning his secret.
300* BrownBagMask: Bucky [=McBadBat=], Chester's father, wears a paper bag over his head out of shame at being the worst baseball player ever. Some episodes show a framed picture of Chester's mom, who also has a paper bag mask.
301* TheBrute: Francis, a barely literate 12 year old who is still in elementary school, and is apparently the physically strongest human being in the city.
302* TheBully: Parodied with Francis, who treats his bullying almost like a job and engages in acts of cruelty so severe that he should probably be in jail.
303* BumblingDad: Mr. Turner, plays this completely straight, being even dumber than his D-student son and often neglegent to the point of abuse out of sheer obliviousness. He generally means well, though.
304* TheBurlesqueOfVenus: A send-up of Creator/SandroBotticelli's ''Art/{{The Birth of Venus|Botticelli}}'' is among the paintings referenced in "Finding Emo" when Timmy shows on his phone various pictures of his love interest Missy in pastiches of famous paintings.
305* ButterflyOfDoom: According to Jorgen in "It's a Wishful Life", a lot of bad things in the world are Timmy's fault. In the alternate universe where he never existed, the Chicago Cubs have won multiple World Series, for example.
306[[/folder]]
307
308[[folder:C]]
309* CallBack:
310** In "Fairly [=OddPet=]", Timmy wants to get a dog. He wishes up a bunch of cats in the house, to trigger his mom's allergies, so Dad will let him get a dog to drive the cats away. Mrs. Turner's cat allergy first appeared as a quick gag in "Invasion of the Dads."
311** Timmy uses his [[TimeMachine Time Scooter]] from "Father Time!" in later episodes, such as "The Secret Origin of Denzel Crocker!" and "The Big Bash".
312** Magical buildup, a phenomenon where a fairy explodes after not granting enough wishes, is introduced in "The Same Game" and later becomes a major plot point in "Fairy Idol".
313* CanadaEh: In ''Parent Hoods'', where a trip to the Canadian half of the Niagra Falls leads to a parade of Canadian stereotypes. To the point where even Cosmo and Wanda's trademark "poofs" are rendered "Poof, eh?"
314* CantDefaultToMurder: Principle Waxelplax hires truancy officer Shallowgrave to bring Timmy and Adam West to school once she finds out they're playing hooky, specifying they need to be brought back alive. Shallowgrave checks his HookHand collection and says he doesn't have a hook for "Alive," so he charges extra.
315* TheCape: The Crimson Chin, and over-the-top parody of Silver-Age Superman
316* CaptainColorbeard:
317** The ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' short "Where's the Wand?" had Cosmo take on the form of a pirate and call himself Greenbeard.
318** In "Odd-Pirates", Timmy, Poof, Wanda, and Cosmo encounter a pirate named Dirtybeard.
319** "Summer Bummer" once more has Cosmo become Greenbeard in addition to Wanda dressing as a pirate named Pinkbeard and the episode ending with Chloe dressing as a pirate while calling herself Blondebeard.
320* CaptainErsatz: Dark Laser is basically [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]] in all but name, and even the name is a reference to a famous fan mispronunciation of Darth Vader. This is deliberately invoked in ''Abra-Catrastrophe'', where Timmy's dream at the beginning is simply a variety of off-brand movie parodies in a self-conscious attempt at WritingAroundTrademarks.
321** {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d: "I'm the amazing unsue-able Arachnid-Kid!"
322* CaptainObvious: Used in "Knighty Knight".
323--> '''Timmy:''' Y'know what? I wish we were all in the real Middle Ages. (Cosmo and Wanda use their magic) This is great! We're actually in the Middle Ages!
324--> '''Wanda:''' Well, that's what you wished for, Sir Points-Out-The-Obvious-A-Lot.
325* CaptainSpaceDefenderOfEarth: Crash Neblua, protagonist of the ShowWithinAShow Crash Nebula, is a sci-fi hero who battles evil aliens and robots.
326* CaptivityHarmonica: Parodied in Wishology. The harmonica turns out to be music coming from a record player, whose turntable is being operated by the captive fairies.
327* CardCarryingVillain: The Anti-Faries, justified by the very purpose of their existence being to oppose the benevolent fairies. A more literal example is The Pixies, who are just EvilInc taken to its logical conclusion.
328* CareBearStare:
329** The Yugopotamians are aliens whose weaknesses include chocolate, flowers, and hugs. In fact, there was an episode where a [[KillerRabbit Care Bear-esque army of creatures]] invades their planet through the use of cereal boxes and the evil aliens are unable to do anything because the power of cute exhibited by these creatures is too strong. [[spoiler:Until they learn they taste like manure, said aliens' most loved delicacy, at which point they proceed to eat them.]]
330** A greater example is shown in "Wishology" as [[spoiler:the Darkness is defeated by blasting it with a celestial smile, turning it into the Kindness.]]
331* TheCasanova:
332** Juandissimo Magnifico, a pretty straightforward LatinLover iteration of this trope. Ironically, despite being beloved by all of Fairy World's women, he only has eyes for Wanda.
333** Dr. Rip Studwell, a parody of leading men in soap operas like ''General Hospital'', who enters almost every scene he's in with a beautiful woman on either arm.
334* TheCassandra: Crocker's insane ranting about fairies is entirely correct to an almost absurd degree of precision, which we later discover is because he has lingering memories of having had fairies in his youth. No one believes him though, because he's insane.
335* CastAsAMask: "No Substitute for Crazy" has Crocker injured and filled in by a seemingly nicer substitute teacher named Ms. Sunshine, who is voiced by Carolyn Lawrence. After Timmy wishes that Ms. Sunshine was his permanent teacher, she reveals her true colors as a much more competent fairy hunter named Ms. Doombringer, who is voiced by Creator/SusanneBlakeslee.
336* CelebCrush:
337** Chip Skylark: Both of Timmy's parents (yes, the dad too) crush on him. So does Wanda. Vicky ''did'' until she found out he was broke.
338** Pop Diva Britney Britney: Cosmo has a crush on her.
339* CelebrityIsOverrated:
340** Chip Skylark in ''Boys in the Band''. He confides in Timmy that, despite the glamour of his life, he has practically nothing of his own, and is constantly stalked by psychotic fans.
341** Timmy in ''Timmy TV''. Timmy initially eats up the fact that he's Fairy World's biggest celebrity, but quickly comes to resent the complete and total lack of privacy, and the constant interference in his life by the showwriters.
342* CensorshipBySpelling: Wanda tries to take Cosmo to the D-O-C-T-O-R.
343-->'''Cosmo''': What? Doctor? I thought she was spelling plumber. It's worse than I thought!
344* ChainedToARailway: In "The Good Old Days" (a classic cartoon age hommage), Vicky attempts to do this with Timmy's grandpa in a bout of good ol' fashioned villainy, but all good places at the railroad were already taken by other villains. She opts to put him on a log and feed it to a buzzsaw instead, in a direct reference to an old ''Popeye'' cartoon.
345** Vicky herself was tied on railroad tracks in the "Masked Magician" episode.
346* ChainsawGood: Timmy's Dad makes an impromptu love poem to his chainsaw in "Love Struck". (OK, maybe there is lacking a ''tad'' of senseless violence to fully qualify for this trope...)
347** Same goes for "Hairicane", where the barber gives Timmy a haircut with a chainsaw, leaving him a bit mauled and MirrorCrackingUgly.
348* ChaoticStupid: Cosmo. It's shown that ever since he was born, he's been causing untold amounts of destruction out of sheer stupidity. There's no malice behind any of it, he just doesn't know better.
349* CharacterCatchphrase:
350** When Timmy suddenly discovers something useful that helps him in a given situation, he'll use the phrase "Thank you, [concept responsible for whatever helped him]." For example, when he realizes he can escape a gerbil cage he's locked in (episode entitled "That's Life!") because he has thumbs, he quips, "Thank you, evolution!"
351*** There's also "Let's get [adjective]!" whenever Timmy's about to jump into action.
352** Timmy also has "Uh, internet?" as a catch-all excuse when someone asks where he got something. Usually, it works.
353** In-universe, in "Timmy TV," Timmy is put in a reality TV show in Fairy World. The executives make him have a catchphrase, which turns out to be "What could possibly go wrong?"
354* CharacterExaggeration: Cosmo got dumber between the ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' and the actual show.
355* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Cosmo was only a bit spacey in the early days, and Wanda was somewhat similar. Seeing the early shorts seems weird now that it's been established in the main series that Cosmo is a complete dunderhead and Wanda is the smarter of the two.
356* CheatersNeverProsper:
357** In ''Hex Games'', Vicky attempts to cheat by stealing Timmy's secret ramping move to use for herself. It ultimately backfires because the move was designed for Timmy, and she's too tall and heavy to maintain her balance while doing it.
358** In ''The Fairly Oddlympics'', Jorgen is single-handedly dominating the Anti-Fairies and the Pixies, until they trick him into knocking himself out. This ultimately doesn't help their chances, as the rest of the Fairies are still able to compete in events they're suited for, and also the Anti-Fairies and the Pixies [[DickDastardlyStopsToCheat spend more time]] sabotaging ''each other'' than they do trying to win.
359* CheeseEatingSurrenderMonkeys: In "Deja Vu", when a pair of French restaurant visitors get water-bombed (Timmy aimed for Francis...Good that he had a [[GroundhogDayLoop Redo Button]]).
360* ChekhovsBoomerang: Timmy's [[EyeBeams Heat Vision]]. He wishes for it early in Season One and every once in a while reveals that he never wished it away, but simply forgets that he has it.
361* ChekhovsGun: Crops up from time to time:
362** In "Super Bike", Super Bike purposefully breaks his mirror, which clues Timmy in to getting past his NighInvulnerability.
363** Played relatively straight in "Mind over Magic", as Cosmo's elevator music in his head allows Timmy to hear where he and Wanda are.
364** The Charades game in "Pipe Down!" inspires Timmy how to wish the sound back.
365** The Mega Fizzy Juice in "Moooving Day" allows Timmy to break the citizens' mind control and revert Dimmadome Acres to its true state.
366** Played straight again in ''Wishology'', though more of a Chekhov's Death Star due to lack of subtlety.
367* CheshireCatGrin: Dr. Bender, caused by a set of "perfect teeth" too large to completely covered by his lips. His debut episode reveals that this is simply a comically oversized pair of dentures.
368* TheChessmaster: The Head Pixie specializes in this; because he treats magic like a business, his plans usually involve hostile takeovers and exploiting the fine print in contracts. ''School's Out'' is particularly noteworthy, as it is the result of a ''thirty-seven year plot'' to take over the Earth.
369* TheChewToy:
370** Binky, the usual subject of Jorgen's bullying, as well as the rest of Fairy World's designated whipping boy.
371** Chester, who is forced to suffer family disgrace, poverty, and being the show's favorite target for slapstick.
372* ChickenpoxEpisode: A variant that doesn't resemble the real disease, but uses the name for a pun. "Chicken Poofs" is about baby Poof getting the titular disease, which turns him -- and anybody he sneezes on -- into a literal chicken.
373* ChildHater:
374** Crocker, with the sole exception being Poof. He despises the children he teaches, and relishes torturing them physically and psychologically. His backstory episode implies that he's taking out his anger at his own miserable childhood on them.
375** Hinted at with Dinkleberg, who seems to take great pride in being childless. Though he is friendly with Timmy.
376* ChickMagnet: Dr. Rip Studwell is never seen without at least two ladies clinging to him.. Juandissimo has almost all of Fairy World literally metlting at his touch. He relishes the attention, but he's only interested in pursuing Wanda.
377* ChirpingCrickets: The town mayor gets his fair share in "Dream Goat".
378** Likewise, noone shares the enthusiasm of Principal Waxelplax for the Awards Ceremony.
379** Neither for Timmy running for Student Body President...until he switches from his speech [[ItMakesSenseInContext written by Shakespeare]] and begins to improvise.
380** And Thomas Jefferson getting this as LamePunReaction in "Twistory".
381** And Timmy's Greatest Movie Ever in "Movie Magic". (Needs better FX.)
382** And the [[ItMakesSenseInContext Clean-O-Bot Transformer]], who surely is made of awesome, but everyone is simply too ''tired'' for his jokes in "Beddy Bye".
383** And Cosmo thinking he's famous in "Timmy TV", drawn out into a OverlyLongGag.
384** And the April Fool in "Fairy Idol", with all fairies [[VisualPun turning]] into ChirpingCrickets.
385* TheChosenOne: Double subverted in ''WesternAnimation/{{Wishology}}'', where Timmy Turner is stated to be the Chosen One in combating the Darkness. After the first fight with the Darkness another character named Turbo Thunder, who resembles an adult and muscular version of Timmy, appears to be the real Chosen One who [[MissedTheCall slept through the Darkness's attack]]. Later on, however, it turns out that Tmmy is the real Chosen One after all, a revelation that even Turbo Thunder accepts.
386* ChristmasEveryDay: In the first Christmas episode "Christmas Every Day," Timmy wishes for every day to be Christmas. However, the plot goes in a different direction -- as a result, snow piles up everywhere, and the banks are closed. This makes people unable to get money or food. Timmy thus needs to find a way to reverse his wish.
387* ChronicPetKiller: Well, they didn't actually die, no! They just ran away while Timmy was at camp... camp... camp...
388** Specifically, Timmy's Dad forgot to feed them while Timmy was at camp... camp... camp...
389* ChronicVillainy: Remy Buxaplenty. His initial drive to villainy was driven by jealousy at Timmy, but even when Timmy attempts to bury the hatchet, Remy always seems to slide back into being the bad guy.

413* CirclingVultures: In "Mission Responsible", Timmy claims he could totally babysit Poof. Cut to his pets being circled by vultures.
414* ClarkKenting: The Crimson Chin parodies the trope namer with his alter ego Charles Hampton Indigo (C.H.In. for short) who works at the ''Daily Blabbity'' newspaper.
415* ClearMyName: In ''Inspection Detection'', Timmy is accidentally framed for shoplifting, due to unintentionally wishing for a bunch of items that were coincidentally stolen from the mall the same day. He spends most of the episode trying to catch the real shoplifter: Francis.
416* CloseCallHaircut: Happens twice to Timmy.
417** In "Just the Two of Us!", while Trixie is attacking Timmy after he breaks up with her, she eventually manages to corner him with a helicopter, and tries slice him in half with the tail rotor. By the time Timmy wishes everything was back to normal, the propeller had started to cut through his hair.
418** In "Yoo Doo!", he has an even closer call. Near the end of the episode, the doll representing him was going through a wood-chipper while he was unwishing the wish. By the time he wished all the dolls were gone, ''all'' his hair had been cut off.
419* ClothesForChristmasCringe: In "Marry Wishmas", when the kids are complaining about getting gifts that were "not on the list", one boy complains that all he got was brand new underwear.
420* ClothingAppendage: "Fish Out of Water" features female fish with markings on their bodies that give them the appearance of wearing dresses.
421* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Cosmo and Mr. Turner are both pretty eccentric. Case in point, Cosmo revealed in "Chip Off the Old Chip" that he once had an idea for an edible wristwatch that wasn't able to keep time and tasted horrible, which Cosmo claimed was his product's slogan when Wanda pointed out those shortcomings, while "Information Stupor Highway" had Mr. Turner walk away while announcing his intent to make ice cream out of birdseed and gum.
422* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: Crocker, even though he's absolutely and diagnosably crazy, and jumps to conclusions no grown man should consider as the most reasonable explanation. However, his cacamayme theories are usually what's actually going on.
423* CockroachesWillRuleTheEarth: In the episode "Wanda's Day Off!", Timmy wishes he knew what a cockroach was thinking about. When Cosmo grants the cockroach intelligence and the ability to speak, it immediately stands up on its hind legs and yells "WORLD DOMINATION!" Throughout the rest of the episode, the cockroaches organize, gather weapons, and proceed to TakeOverTheWorld, until Wanda comes back and un-wishes the whole mess.
424* CoincidentalBroadcast: Lampshaded by Cosmo in one episode:
425--> '''Cosmo:''' You can see all about it in this conveniently placed television.
426* ColorCharacter Spoofed with "The Crimson Chin". Every supervillain and hero in his universe has a name referring to a color and a bodypart, with a costume color scheme to match.
427* ColorMotif: Most fairies have one.
428** Cosmo and Jorgen: Green ( Jorgen's is slightly darker and desaturated, through )
429** Wanda and Cupid: Pink
430** Poof and Juandissimo: Purple
431** Sparky: Yellow
432** Tooth Fairy and Mama Cosma: Turqouise
433** Timmy himself is usually associated with pink and sometimes blue.
434* CombatStilettos: Mandie, Mark Chang's gorgeousledy-dress would-be fiancee who's also constantly out to kill him.
435* CombiningMecha: The Jack O'Bots/Pumpkinator are robotic pumpkins able to merge into a much larger robot pumpkin.
436* ComedicUnderwearExposure: In one episode Francis is de-pantsed by Timmy in front of the whole school, exposing his red, skull-printed boxer shorts.
437* ComedyGhetto: {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d InUniverse in "Movie Magic:"
438--> '''Trixie:''' “Because, anonymous voice from nobody, you won [an award] for comedy, and everybody knows that comedy is the lowest form of entertainment... [[HypocriticalHumor next to animation]].”
439%% * ComicallyMissingThePoint: Cosmo's getting the wrong Aesop for something. Timmy sometimes too.
440* ComicallyOversizedButt: In "Most Wanted Wish", when Timmy wishes that he were the most wanted kid in the world after feeling neglected, every fairy godparent in the world wants him to be his godchild, so Jorgen sends all the fairies to Texas, where a cage match is held in which each fairy has to blast each other in the butt to eliminate them, and the last fairy standing will win. One fairy couple is upset to be a part of the match, as they have enormous butts, and sure enough, they're the first to lose.
441* ComicallySmallBribe: In "Fairly Old Parent", Wanda and Timmy are arrested by the bingo police for suggesting to Mrs. Crocker that she cheat at bingo (ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext). Wanda then offers them a quarter to just forget about the whole thing. She and Timmy wind up in bingo jail.
442* ComicallyWordyContract: When [[JackassGenie Norm the Genie]] is introduced, the wishes he gives Timmy are coincided with the ExactWords words that Timmy said. After Norm tricks Timmy into wishing Cosmo and Wanda to be trapped, Timmy wises up and wishes for a lawyer. The Lawyer draws up a very lengthy contract, that Norm signs, that states that Timmy's next wish will be conceded with no weird surprises or tricks.
443* ComicBooksAreReal: Crimson Chin and Crash Nebula
444* ComicBookTime: None of the characters ever age in the show. Timmy has even had several birthdays throughout the show yet he remains 10 years old. [[spoiler: This was cleverly explained in the movie Timmy's Secret Wish, where said secret wish was that everyone would stay the same age forever so that he could keep his godparents. As it turns out, everyone had stayed the same age for FIFTY YEARS.]]
445* ComicTrio: The three main characters (Timmy is TheLeader, Cosmo is TheFool, and Wanda is OnlySaneWoman).
446* CompanionCube: Cosmo's various non-living pets, including his pet nickel Philip, which he even sleeps with at night.
447* CompanyCrossReferences:
448** There are several references to ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'':
449*** A RunningGag in "Ruled Out" has Timmy's Dad saying "Pants are for squares" and "X is/are for squares, like pants."
450*** In "Wish Fixers", Cosmo gives Timmy cheese pants and calls him "Cheeseboy Squarepants".
451*** In "Something's Fishy", King Greg says that the merpeoples' diet consists of "crabs, starfish and the occasional underwater squirrel."
452*** In "App Trap", a student at Timmy's school has a familiar-looking pair of buck teeth, white shirt, red tie and brown pants.
453** The PoorlyDisguisedPilot for a Crash Nebula spinoff features a brief shot of a comic book cover depicting the title character of fellow Butch Hartman-created Nicktoon ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom''.
454** Danny Phantom has a cameo on a monitor in "Poltergeeks".
455** Hand puppets of Danny Phantom and [[WesternAnimation/TUFFPuppy Dudley Puppy]] are shown in "Which is Wish".
456** A Dudley Puppy parade balloon appears at the end of "Dimmsdale's Got Talent?"
457* CompressedVice: Many characters display traits or flaws that they will otherwise never suffer from in subsequent episodes. Some of these character flaws have taken off in fanfiction and other medium, while others are used as ammunition in shipping wars.
458* ConnectedAllAlong: In "School's Out: The Musical" it's revealed that the recurring Flappy Bob Learnatorium is part of a massive 37 year plan orchestrated by the Pixies.
459* ContinuityDrift: The series has continuity that got looser as it went on, but it did pop up sometimes.
460** In his first appearance in the ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' shorts, it's implied that Cosmo and Wanda are meeting Jorgen for the first time. The series proper establishes that they've known each other long before hand, and and Jorgen's a prominent figure, making this first interaction strange.
461** In early episodes, losing your fairies did not equate losing your memory of them. This only started in season 3.
462* ContinuityNod:
463** In "Oh, Brother!", Timmy wishes up a fictional country called Tibecaudor to explain where his new big brother came from. It gets mentioned again in "Timmy the Barbarian" and "Wishy Washy".
464** In "Fairy Idol", Cupid's song states that he'll die without love. "Love Struck!" shows that this is NotHyperbole; Cupid shrivels up and becomes seriously ill when both genders go to war.
465** In "Timmy's Secret Wish", among the wishes Timmy made for in the past are "copies of your dad" (from "Add-a-Dad") and Cosmo giving birth (from "Fairly [=OddBaby=]").
466* ContinuityPorn:
467** Escape from Unwish Island. It contains references to everything that's happened in the series up to that point.
468** When Jorgen appears on TV in "Wish Fixers" with a list of bad wishes, all of them are from previous episodes.
469* ContinuitySnarl:
470** The inclusion of Poof as a main cast member has brought up some confusion regarding his absence in the finale of the movie ''WesternAnimation/ChannelChasers''.
471** Also, the addition of Sparky brings on more continuity issues, such as Sparky not being there on the end of ''WesternAnimation/ChannelChasers'' (the same contradiction happened with Poof) and he not being on the live-action movies - ''[[Film/AFairlyOddMovieGrowUpTimmyTurner A Fairly Odd Movie]]'' and ''Film/AFairlyOddChristmas'' - both taking place thirteen years after the events of the main series. In ''[[Film/AFairlyOddMovieGrowUpTimmyTurner A Fairly Odd Movie]]'', there is even a scene in which Wanda states that Timmy doesn't have a dog.
472* ContrivedClumsiness: The "accidental" spill variant gets used by "Icky Vicky" the babysitter. She doesn't just spill a drink, though. It is a significant amount of water, enough to drench the other girl.
473* ContrivedCoincidence: This show has been RUNNING on these since the beginning, even coming in chains and not letting up throughout the show's lifespan, sometimes growing more unbelievable then necessary. Not just to Timmy, but the town in general at times. They mostly take place to make Timmy more as a CosmicPlaything though. There's honestly too many to list, and is the show's main running trope.
474** One early theme to try to avert this trope is Timmy blaming his magically gotten convenient gains on the Internet. Cause you can get anything with no consequence through the Internet.
475*** It has been abandoned though later on.
476* CoolShades: The popular kids Tad & Chad always wear sunglasses.
477* CorruptCorporateExecutive:
478** Doug Dimmadome, a parody of Corporate Executive Ted Turner, who callously tears down Mr. Turner's favorite ghost town to put up a mini-mall (referring to himself as a "[[CardCarryingVillain destroyer of cherished childhood dreams,]]") and brainwashes an entire town with milk to act as his slaves.
479** Flappy Bob from ''Schools Out: The Musical'' is an unintentional example. He provides what is essentially a kid-friendly jail for the kids of Dimmsdale to spend their summer vacation in so they don't destroy the town. While the kids are understandably nonplussed by this, Bob didn't think he was doing anything wrong, as he'd been raised from birth to believe things that kids find boring and dull are actually fun for them.
480** Hugh J. Magnate Jr. from ''Grow Up, Timmy Turner!'' PunnyName aside, he's an oil baron who wants to turn Dimmesdale into, of all things, a combination oil rig/hotel and attempts to enlist Cosmo and Wanda for the job against their will.
481** The Head Pixie is a parody of droll corporate executive behavior, and frequently uses contract negotiations to con Timmy and others out of having fun. In ''School's Out: The Musical!'' he raises Flappy Bob to be just as corrupt, using a complicated legal plan to turn the entire town as well as Fairy World into an unfun haven for pixies.
482* CorruptedCharacterCopy: The titular characters of the episode "The Fair Bears" are a more ignoble take on the Franchise/CareBears, establishing the colorful and cheerful beings to be strongly adverse to people displaying any emotion besides happiness and willing to resort to brainwashing their opposition into conforming to their worldview.
483* CosmicPlaything: One gets the feeling the writers revel in [[TorturePorn tormenting poor ten-year-old Timmy as much as the Spongebob writers revel in doing it to Squidward.]]
484** Cosmo as well to an extent. But he's immortal/has higher pain tolerance, so that must not be as funny to the writers, as there's not as much of this trope played on this dimwitted fairy compared to Timmy.
485* CouchGag: Vicky's head changes into a different object in every episode (except "Escape From Unwish Island"), usually fitting the theme.
486** In all Australian reruns of ALL the episodes (excluding Wishology) season 7, its always the bull gag. Strangely its never been in any other episode.
487* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: In "The Secret Origin of Denzel Crocker!", Timmy tries to stop 70's!Crocker from revealing to have fairy godparents. But if it wasn't for Present!Cosmo turning on those microphones and 70's!Cosmo revealing that he and Wanda are fairies, Timmy, Cosmo and Wanda would've continue with Crocker's problem.
488 * CousinOliver: Poof
489 ** Then Sparky the Fairy Dog.
490 *** Then Chloe.
491* CountingToPotato: After falling in love with his own reflection due to accidentally hitting himself with one of Cupid's arrows in "Stupid Cupid", Cosmo tries to count the ways he loves himself and goes "one, seven, avocado, Europe".
492* {{Countrystan}}: Timmy's maternal grandfather and grandmother, Vlad and Gladys, are yak farmers who come from a poor eastern European nation called "Ustinkistan" and speak with thick Slavic accents while wearing lederhosen and HornyVikings helmets. [[spoiler:The end of the episode reveals that they've become wealthy and fully accustomed to the American lifestyle and only go back to their roots around Yaksgiving.]]
493* CowboyEpisode: Timmy Turner goes back in time to the founding of the city of Dimmsdale. As Dimmsdale is in southeastern California and the city was founded in the mid-19th century, Dimmsdale is depicted as a Wild West town. (This, of course, contrasts with te episodes that portrayed Dimmsdale in medieval times and
494* CreateYourOwnVillain: With so much attention given to Superhero Tropes, this is yet another one they [[LampshadeHanging point out.]]
495** Timmy and Jimmy do this in Jimmy Timmy Power Hour 3. They wanted someone to fight together who could be a challenge. They then play the trope straight when they get bored of him and try to ditch him. He gets mad. [[spoiler: The reason was because Jimmy told Timmy to make him 'adoptable' whenever they got bored of him. Unfortunately, Timmy types 'adaptable' meaning it ADAPTS to the situation.]]
496** Also happens in "The Masked Magician". Timmy causes Mr. Bickles to become a supervillain. When he apologizes, Bickles reforms, but the Vegas act he gets ticked off Britney Britney and she becomes his supervillain.
497* CriminalDoppelganger: Timmy Turner's real parents were once arrested during a trip to Niagara Falls by cops who confused them with an OutlawCouple known as "The Souvenir Bandits."
498* {{Crossover}}:
499** With ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'' via ''WesternAnimation/TheJimmyTimmyPowerHour'' trilogy, and with ''Series/NedsDeclassifiedSchoolSurvivalGuide'' even though the latter is live action (the cartoon characters appear in Ned's imagination in the episode "Daydreaming").
500** In-universe, the Crimson Chin has met Crash Nebula and Catman.
501** The show also had two crossovers with other Butch Hartman-created Nicktoons. The first was a promotional short called ''Fairly Odd Phantom'' (and a follow-up comic of the same name), where the show crossed over with ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'', ''WesternAnimation/TUFFPuppy'' and ''WesternAnimation/BunsenIsABeast''. The second was a crossover with ''Bunsen is a Beast'' in the episode "Beast of Friends", which had the main characters visit each other's universes due to Bunsen and Cosmo becoming friends.
502* CrotchGlanceSexCheck: Subverted near the end of "Fairly Odd Baby" when Wanda changes her new baby's diaper to see what its gender is. She gets some [[TinkleInTheEye liquid squirted in her face]], and Timmy notes that it's a boy...[[BaitAndSwitch because it squirted Wanda with a water gun, and "boys love water squirters"]]!
503* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Adam West actually beat the Crimson Chin.
504* CryingARiver: In "Love Struck!", Timmy wishes for the world to be separated by gender, Mrs. Turner and the other women start crying when they don't have anything to "fill their void", and they flood the Colosseum with their tears.
505* CueTheRain: Seen in "A Mile in My Shoes." Timmy is having an increasingly bad day, and after missing the school bus, he says "Well, at least it's a nice day." Right after saying that, a thunderstorm begins, pouring right on Timmy so much it floods.
506* CulturalRebel: Trixie Tang, the popular girl, is secretly a comic book fangirl. She also likes dead frogs.
507* CutawayGag: Occurs subtly in the early episodes, most notably "Totally Spaced Out":
508-->'''Timmy''': Why am I in my Crash Nebula outfit?
509-->'''Cosmo''': It's stretchy and form-fitting!
510-->'''Wanda''': But, most of all, this is the suit you wore the last time you were here, remember?
511-->'''Timmy''': Oh, yeah! You think they'll remember me?
512-->''(Cut to Yugopotamians watching Cosmo, Wanda, and Timmy's Movements on a Jumbo-Tron)''
513-->'''Yugopotamian''' (With a thick, Australian accent): It's Timmy Turner! The Earth warrior who ate the dreaded chocolate! He's returned! (Entire audience goes into full panic mode)
514-->'''Cosmo'''(through Jumbo-Tron): I'd say that's a "yes".
515* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Most fairies. Exceptions include Jorgen, Blonda, and Big Daddy.
516** and Binky, who is bald.
517* {{Cyberspace}}: Three times: an episode where Timmy wishes for an ultra realistic video game, and an episode where he tries to stop a forged love letter email from reaching its destination, and was the main area where it took place in ''Information Stupor Highway''; and once in "Channel Chasers" wherein he and Vicky use magical remotes to modify television.
518** Furthermore, when [[WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius Jimmy Neutron]] crosses over, he assumes Fairy World is one of these, as he thinks Timmy's fairies are sentient holograms.
519* CutASliceTakeTheRest: In "That's Life", Timmy tells his godparents there's only one piece of pizza left--"really huge, almost-circular piece".
