YMMV / How to Rock

Go To

  • Adaptation Displacement: Ever heard of the book? You'll also be hard-pressed to find anyone who remembers the show in general.
  • Awesome Music:
    • "Only You Can Be You" and "Move with the Crowd".
    • "Me, Myself, and I" from "High School Sensation", especially with Cymphonique and Romeo performing together.
    • "Deck The Halls", How To Rock style.
  • Cult Classic: The show had a very dedicated fanbase at the time that it was first airing and is still years later looked upon positively and fondly.
  • Fan-Preferred Couple: Zevie (Zander Robbins/Stevie Baskara) is intensely loved by the fanbase specifically because of the close dynamic between the two characters and the chemistry between Max Schneider and Lulu Antariksa. The ship is widely well-received above the two Zander ships the show seemed to be implying instead: either him and Kacey Simon (Zacey) or him and Molly Garfunkel (Zolly).
  • Fandom Rivalry: A bitter one with Sam & Cat after How To Rock's creator revealed that they were cancelled because of it.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: Kacey spent most of the series trying to stop and outdo Molly since being kicked out of the Perfs. She was able to beat Molly and get the last laugh many times, but their backstory in "How To Rock Christmas" reveals that this is exactly the type of behavior Kacey had towards Molly when she was queen of the Perfs and why Molly has such a grudge against her to begin with.
    • Incidentally, this recalls the plot of the books.
  • Les Yay: Let's just say that Kacie and Stevie have plenty of moments where they're really close with each other.
