* EveryoneHasStandards: "The Kernel" centers around Simon getting a chance to get his career back on track (returning to his old show, possibly getting a prime-time series), but only if he "plays nice" with the network president's sister. Simon goes along with it to get what he wants, but when it's time to have a night alone with her, he discovers (much to his own surprise) that he actually has some standards and self-respect.

''Over the Top'' was a very short-lived 1997 SitCom starring Creator/TimCurry (who was also one of the producers of the show), Creator/SteveCarell and Annie Potts.
The show focused on Simon Ferguson (played by Curry) a former actor and star of a daytime soap opera who was recently fired from his job (Due to him showing up at work drunk once too often and forgetting his lines). He ends up at a hotel in Boston where he is reunited with his ex-wife Hadley Martin (played by Potts). He then ends up employed at the hotel while mooching off of Martin's kindness and dealing with not only a good-hearted yet annoying child named Daniel Martin (Hadley's son), but also a very obsessed fan, Yorgo (played by Steve Carell), who happens to be the hotel's chef, and Hadley's rebellious teen daughter, Gwen.

This show provides examples of:
* BrattyHalfPint: Averted with Daniel. Though he's an annoyance to Simon, Daniel is generally a good kid.
* CastingGag: One episode featured [[Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow Simon dressing up in drag.]]
* DeadpanSnarker: Simon (when he's not being a LargeHam), though, what else would we expect from TimCurry?
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Simon's character in ''[[ShowWithinAShow Days to Remember]]'' is killed in a plane crash after Simon is fired from his acting job on the show.
* HeyItsThatGuy: Hey, it's [[Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow Dr. Frank N Furter]], [[Film/{{Ghostbusters}} Janine Melnitz]] and [[HortonHearsAWho the Mayor of Whoville]].
* HiddenHeartOfGold: Simon. He does have JerkAss tendencies, and he tends to think of himself more than others. But, he generally means well and does show concern for others from time to time.
* JerkAss: Simon, when he's being egotistical and selfish...which is 90% of the time.
* LargeHam: Simon is a parody of this.
* PlayingAgainstType: Apart from Simon's JerkAss qualities, this is one of the few roles Tim Curry plays that isn't a villain.
