Go To

1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Most people who ever watch the show genuinely enjoy Music/TheSmashingPumpkins’ [[Music/MellonCollieAndTheInfiniteSadness “Bullet with Butterfly Wings”]], finding it the only genuinely badass thing that appears in the show.
2* BileFascination: A good chunk of the viewership tunes in to see how badly the SSCS fails at what they are trying to do.
3* DontShootTheMessage: Though eco-terrorism is arguably not the best way of stopping it, whale poaching itself is a serious problem that menaces the very survival of several species.
4* MemeticLoser: Sea Shepherds themselves. Not ''entirely'' for the tactic they employ in the name of conservation and animal rights, but also for being more of a nuisance and inconvenience than any real threat towards the ships and companies they harass.
5* RootingForTheEmpire:
6** A somewhat literal case (given the fact that Japan is still technically an Empire), as you won't have to go long to find a few hundred pro-Japanese sites that are practically ([[VocalMinority and occasionally literally]]) screaming for the blood of those on the ''Steve Irwin''. Even more with the Norse whalers, since they are doing subsistence hunting, thus not in it for profit, [[ForTheEvulz killing whales for Lulz]], or even [[ForScience cold-blooded research]].
7** Plenty of Youtube comments want the Japanese to win because of the seeming ignorance and hypocritical behavior of the shepherds.
