* EnsembleDarkhorse: Larry Kubiak became quite popular with fans, to the point that he was heavily featured on the DVD box art with the main cast.
* SeasonalRot: The final season was less popular with fans for removing some of the more surreal elements. This was due to the show falling into the trap of changing trends. ''Series/BeverlyHills90210'' had came on the air during the show's second season and was a huge ratings juggernaut right out of the gate. Up until that point, ''Series/ParkerLewisCantLose'' was the network's "teen show" and was pulling in ratings that while middling, were better than most Fox shows. Once ''Series/BeverlyHills90210'' came along, however, ''Series/ParkerLewisCantLose'' became expendable due to ''Series/BeverlyHills90210'''s higher ratings and the show desperately tried to court ''Series/BeverlyHills90210'' viewers by becoming a more conventional teen show.
* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The series is dripping with early 90s culture.
