* CrossesTheLineTwice: Guy offhandedly throwing the urn containing Aunt Agnes' ashes at the wall in "[=SheZow=] Happens" is oddly callous and cruel, but Kelly's horrified "That was ''Aunt Agnes''!" takes the moment back to being hilarious.

** [=SheZap=] only has three notable appearances across the entire show, but is one of the most popular villains due to being an memorably creepy, evil version of the already popular [=SheZow=].



* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Wanda, the nosy reporter who Guy is shown to have a crush on in "[=ShePal=]". She had the potential to be an interesting addition to the main group, given how close she came to discovering [=SheZow=]'s true identity using her own intuition, being Kelly's implied best friend, and acting as a potential love interest to Guy who may even return his affections. However, aside from the aforementioned episode and a couple of minor appearances afterward, she never played a major role in the series since.

** [=SheZap=] had a lot of potential to be a terrifying recurring baddie, given that (s)he has all of [=SheZow=]'s abilities and memories - with him/her even infiltrating Guy's house and pretending to be Guy himself - but aimed at causing as much chaos and trouble as possible, and was actually one of the few villains to ''win'' against him. Despite this, however, his/her appearances were extremely limited - (s)he only appeared in three episodes across the show's 52 episode run - and the idea of him/her being the one villain who knew Guy's secret identity was never fully capitalised on.

*ValuesResonance: Part of why it's considered a CultClassic - Guy Hamdon is a male who is gender non-conforming, but instead of being portrayed as a stereotype, he's a badass superhero. The public also celebrate him and are unbothered by his masculine appearance/name. Sometimes he gets grief for it, but he never lets that stop him from being who he is.

Fetish Fuel is now just a fan-speak term. It shouldn't be linked to, not even for YMMV purposes. In-universe examples are the Fetish trope.
