* MisaimedMarketing: The show is aimed at pre-teen girls and showcases that through having one as TheProtagonist who is a stereotypical GirlyGirl (albeit with a [[GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak bit of a tomboy streak]]), but in general it centers around the lives of houseflies living in a dump and [[GrossOutShow uses some occasional gross-out elements]], which are justified due to them being flies.

* MomentOfAwesome: In Bugtillion, Maggie manages to do a good enough job at imitating a proper lady that she manages to charm her rival's mother into voting to let her attend the ball (at which point her rival drops her jaw in shock).

Added DiffLines:

* DiagnosedByTheAudience:
** Maria Monarch ticks off a lot of boxes for UsefulNotes/AspergerSyndrome: she's generally very quiet and introverted, doesn't care much about her appearance (at least before [[SheCleansUpNicely her makeover]]), has strange vocal patterns, isn't good at speaking publicly, is clumsy and awkward, has [[SensoryOverload sensitive hearing]], behaves dramatically when under pressure, and tends to shake or jump when excited. However, we never see any of her obsessions, which is a major part of what defines Asperger's, although this could be because Aspie girls' interests generally aren't quite as unusual as those of their male counterparts. [[note]]Usually, girls with Asperger's have "typical" girly interests, such as horses, classical literature or keeping things neat and tidy, while boys will have more "nerdy" interests, such as geography, anatomy, zoology, palaeontology, science fiction etc. There are exceptions to the rule, of course, but this is more of a general rule of thumb. [[/note]]
** In "Sick Days, Inc.", Maggie and Rayna's first customer appears to have Down Syndrome and he doesn't get basic math.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: While the show was generally liked by most of the people that watched it (a select few of which consider it a legit CultClassic while most of the others merely consider it SoOkayItsAverage), is an extremely (in fact, probably parodically) stereotypical SliceOfLife tween sitcom aimed at tween girls ([[MisaimedMarketing naturally a crowd known for being rather squeamish to put it]] lightly) that [[GrossOutShow takes place in an overflowing garbage dump infested with sentient anthropomorphic flies, sentient, visibly humongous germs, and various other types of insects who may or may not have gained their anthropomorphism from prolonged radioactive fluid/gas exposure]]. These reasons lead to the show [[ScrewedByTheNetwork only lasting one season]].

No meta examples, please.


* TearJerker: A somewhat meta example--when the showrunners were informed they wouldn't be picked up for another season, they slipped an EasterEgg into the final episode. That Easter Egg being Maggie [[EndOfSeriesAwareness waving goodbye to the viewers]] as the episode ended.

Added DiffLines:

* PresumedFlop: It's one of the most forgotten Creator/DisneyChannel series, only lasting a single season. You'd assume that this was due to poor ratings, as it is perceived as little more than SoOkayItsAverage by many who do bother to seek it out years later. In actuality, it boasted high ratings in the United States and it was beloved by critics. The show was cancelled because, despite domestic success, it [[AmericansHateTingle completely failed to gain an audience overseas]].

* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Let's not talk about [[PaedoHunt some of the fan art that Maggie has gotten]]...
* ClicheStorm: The show is absolutely ''infamous'' for how much of one it is.



* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: "Bugs On The Brink" could have ''easily'' featured Maggie sneaking into the [[BrainWithAManualControl brain]] of the female human scientist that decides to not bulldoze Stickyfeet at the end of the episode and then [[WesternAnimation/TimonAndPumbaa using said brain as a communication device]] in order to give the scientist an actually ''proper'' explanation of why bulldozing Stickyfeet was the wrong thing for her and her lackeys to do...but [[ClicheStorm that was apparently too creative]].

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: The ending of "The Hangout" suggests that boys and girls don't deserve privacy from each other, as Maggie's mother makes her and her friends share a treehouse as the hangout space with Aldrin, Pupert, and their respective friends. The opposite genders ''do'' often need isolation from each other, for each have differing interests and personal gender-exclusive problems that are best addressed between the same genders.
