8	''I Got A Rocket'' is an MediaNotes/EmmyAward winning kids tv show airing on Creator/{{Kabillion}}. Simply put, like ''WesternAnimation/TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapjack'' was about how ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs made on drugs]], this series has quite a ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents''-esque feeling, only it's... weirder.
9
10	On his 12th birthday Preteen Vinnie Q gets the best present ever- a live, talking robot! He and his new rocket, called Rocket become best buds and embark on a number of crazy schemes along with Vinnie's two other friends Gabby and Rainbow. Together they form the July Club as all three kids were born in July. However trouble comes in the form of the three school bullies-known as The Duckies- who would do anything to get Rocket for themselves and are always happy to give Vinnie a wedgie.

16	* CoolCar: Crystal built herself her own talking car.
17	* DevilInPlainSight: The Duckies make no effort to conceal their bullying, but somehow those in authority never notice.
18	* DotingParent: Ma Duckie dotes on her three kids. But woe betide anyone else...
19	%%* DudeLooksLikeALady: Rainbow.
20	* GadgeteerGenius: It seems Crystal got the "science gene" from her dad, not Vinnie. But Professor Q hardly notices this and spends most of his time with Vinnie.
21	%%* GratuitousNinja
22	* HiddenDepths: Scuds Duckie reveals to Vincent that he can actually speak eloquently and dislikes being a bully. However he gets so nervous around people that his normal way of talking and bullying are how he copes.
23	* HippieTeacher: Vice-Principal Stern. This makes him the ButtMonkey for several of the show's gags.
24	%%* IdiotHero
25	* IWasQuiteALooker: Ma Duckie, as seen when Vinnie, Rocket and Gabby end up back in the 50s in "I Got a Remote".
26	* JerkAss: The Duckies of course, but Vinnie is no stranger to the trope. It is amazing how he still has friends after some of the stunts he pulls.
27	* LargeHam: Vincent Q, we're looking at you. Prone to long speeches about his and Rocket's new motivations-Every.Single.Episode.

37	* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Nobody ever comments on a talking rocket coming to school everyday...
38	* TheUnfavourite: Professor Quigley Q lavishes a lot more attention on his son Vinnie than he does on his daughter Crystal. However, Crystal seems pretty well-adjusted all things considered.
39	* VulgarHumor: [[InvokedTrope invoked]] in an episode, where the most [[NauseaFuel disgusting]] and vulgar student would get a free vacation on a luxury cruiser, where he/she would be taught good manners. [[NoListeningSkills Obviously, Vincent only hears about the "luxury cruiser" part.]]
40	* WorkOffTheDebt: When Vinnie gets stuck paying the Duckie's diner bill, he doesn't have enough cash and ends up washing dishes.
41	%%* ZanyScheme
