** For fans of Kimber/Stormer, in the [[ComicBook/JemAndTheHologramsIDW IDW comics]], they're ''well'' past subtext, with the Misfits slowly becoming good friends with the Holograms, with ''the Misfits'' being the ones who bring the Holograms back together in the 20/20 DistantFinale.
** Also, In "The Day The Music Died", the Misfits form a super-group with the remains of all three rival groups, which is seen as the DespairEventHorizon as the Misfits have ''won''. At the end of the ''Dark Jem'' storyline, Synergy, in disguise as Jem, and Pizazz headline a super-group made out of effectively the ''full'' line-up of both The Holograms and Misfits, and, in this case, it's a CrowningMomentOfAwesome as the two bands have buried the hatchet.

* AluminumChristmasTrees:
** "Jerrica" isn't a name made up for the show. It's an alternate spelling of the rare name "Jerica".
** Many fans make the mistake of thinking "Kimber" is a nickname for "Kimberly", but "Kimber" is a real name that actually predates "Kimberly".

** The amount of Kimber/Stormer works can make you forget Kimber's boyfriends.
** In the 2010s, Pizzazz/Jerrica caught on as a somewhat popular alternative to Rio/Jerrica and Riot/Jerrica.

* HeartwarmingInHindsight: In the "Music and Danse" song from the "Homeland, Heartland" episode that first aired in February of 1988, there is a line that says (while briefly accompanied by a picture of Europe) "With music and danse, we'll help to bridge the gap, with music and danse we'll wipe the lines right off the map". [[FallOfTheBerlinWall No points for guessing what occurred less than two years later.]]

* EvilIsCool: The Stingers and The Misfits are villainous bands made up of remarkably cool [[EvilIsSexy and attractive]] people. The first time The Misfits even appear they're riding ''guitar shaped motorcycles''.

* BadassDecay: The Misfits, but in particular Pizzazz. Within the first several episodes and the first season, the girls were little more than wild, bitchy troublemakers who, in spite of their antics, were still worthy opponents to Jem and The Holograms. Pizzazz was also a competent frontwoman for the band as well as a natural leader and came off as a strong, independent woman. Come season three, Pizzazz was more love and power hungry as well as more unstable and brattier, to the detriment of the band who became more of a joke than anything else. Things came to a head once The Stingers arrived, and she showed her own lack of loyalty to her band and was desperate for the affections of Riot, who clearly had no interest in her and allowed herself to be manipulated and embarrassed by his bandmates. Soon afterwards, they were rarely seen on the [[WesternAnimation/{{Jem}} show]] unless it was to show some sort of effort by Pizzazz to seduce Riot.
** This was at least partly because of Hasbro's [[ExecutiveMeddling demanding they focus on the newer toys]], since they weren't going to be making any new Misfits dolls.

*** Although giving a multiethnic child a name that works in either parent's background is frequently the point, and Bonnie may have been meant to be her "American" name, out of simplicity, even if we're given her official SpellMyNameWithAnS for characterization.
