* CharacterizationMarchesOn: While Dora has always been a {{Womanchild}} in this series, early on she was at least trying to be nice to the other characters (like not knowing how to break up with her current boyfriend at the time, because she didn't want to hurt his feelings) and her hurting others was a result of her [[WrongGenreSavvy acting as if she is in an episode of the original series, rather than in a more realistic world]], giving in to temptations or simply not thinking things through and she showed guilt when she pissed others off. She was also passive and kind of distant towards Boots early on rather than abusive and there was no indication of her forcing him to do any work. As time went on, she became such a {{Jerkass}}, that there was a [[YetAnotherChristmasCarol Christmas Carol parody]] of her learning about kindness, but she didn't change.

* GratuitousSpanish: Parodied, as many times Dora speaks some bad spanish and sometimes says lines like this one:

* RealityEnsues: Like in the original show, Dora talks to the audience, but other characters notice this, which at times puts Dora in trouble.

* StepfordSmiler: Dora has a miserable life and nothing but deadbeat jobs, but she's still a PluckyGirl. More evident on the "We Did It!" song at the end of each episode, where Dora will cheerfully sing and dance, even in episodes in which nothing pleasant happened to her.
