Awesome / H₂O: Just Add Water

Go To

  • The effort used in making the mermaid tails for the show, with three different kinds for different purposes.
  • Cleo overcoming her fear of water to swim out and free turtles from a fisher's net, and then exposing the man's crimes to her father so he'll be dismissed from his job.
  • Rikki messing up a criminal clique who make their money with illegal trade of rare fish.
  • The girls using their powers to fight off Dr. Denman's henchman in the Season 1 finale.
  • Sure, the girls using their powers to cheat on sports should be questionable, but considering the team they have to play volleyball against are belittling, rude bullies, seeing them getting served is satisfying to watch.
  • Lewis learns that Charlotte has been sabotaging his friendship with Cleo so she could have him all to herself, and then bullied her into hiding. When she confirms all her horrible actions with a grin, Lewis gives Charlotte a look of utter disgust and storms off to boat to find Cleo. Charlotte once again tries to play the "you can't have it both ways" card, but Lewis is having none of it and dumps her. That's right: Lewis, after a whole season, has finally grasped what a toxic person Charlotte truly is and that she never truly loved him, but loved having him. Charlotte is utterly flabbergasted Lewis would choose a "weak" mermaid like Cleo over a "super" mermaid like herself.
    • There's also the fact that Lewis never once gives his ex-girlfriend a lengthy speech about why Cleo is better than her, which further proves that he's above her. He dumps her... and leaves her on the spot.
    • After Charlotte loses her powers, she tries once more to connect with Lewis that all she wanted was to be "the special kind of girl". Lewis calmly sympathizes with her, but he makes it super clear that he, Cleo, and the others are done putting up with her, and things were never gonna work between them. Charlotte shamefully understands and even gives Cleo's necklace back, no strings attached.
  • The Season 2 finale has several for all the girls.
    • First of all, credit has to go to Charlotte for her badass display of powers, being strong enough to conjure a wind that lifts all three girls off the ground. And once influenced by the full moon, she remains in control and can make the appliances in Emma's house go haywire from the outside. She's also smart enough to play along with Lewis's plan to trick her into going into the Moon Pool, knowing it'll draw the others there so she can disempower them. And finally, she conjures up snakes out of the water, and makes them sentient.
    • Rikki coming to Cleo's rescue, boiling the water in the Moon Pool enough to create a distracting steam, allowing all three of them to get out and confront Charlotte. They're dry in seconds, showing how Rikki's powers have increased. Bonus points to Lewis for keeping Charlotte distracted long enough.
    • Just as Charlotte's about to force them into the Moon Pool, they remember their other advanced powers, and conjure up storm clouds to cover the moon. Rikki then uses a friggin bolt of lightning to destroy Charlotte's water snakes!
    • Finally, all three combine forces to overpower Charlotte and force her into the Moon Pool; disempowering her permanently.
  • The series finale, when the girls use their powers to stop a comet from hitting Earth.
