YMMV / As Told By Ginger S 1 E 05 Of Lice And Friends

Go To

  • Harsher in Hindsight: The climax of the episode is about Ginger saving Courtney from public humiliation. Cue Season 2's "No Hope For Courtney", where her Girl Posse abandon her and she becomes an outcast. And then the multiple times she's bullied in high school.
  • Heartwarming in Hindsight:
    • Ginger's attempts to avoid being embarrassed by Lois at school, considering "Nurse's Strike" would show her abandoning those fears and bonding with her mother through Character Development.
    • Courtney repays Ginger's actions next season in "Wicked Game", exposing Dodie and Macie's attempts to split her and Darren up.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Dodie's plot of knowing all the gossip about her students, and broadcasting it publicly? The episode predates Gossip Girl by several years.
  • Never Live It Down: Dodie's second lowest moment in the series, after the infamous "Wicked Game" episode. Her desire to humiliate several students with confidential information, and being completely unapologetic about it makes her irredeemable to some viewers.
