History YMMV / TrustMeImAGenie

* JerkassWoobie: Ziggy. Especially in the series finale where he is called "the worst genie of all time". He's hot-tempered, sarcastic, has somewhat of an ego and even lies, cheats and steals to help Diego fulfill his final wish but he spends so hard trying to get himself free from his can prison that one can't help but feel sorry for him. There's this and [[CryCute the fact that he looks absolutely adorable when he cries.]]

** Ziggy becomes this whenever he enters CryCute mode.

* MagnificentBastard: Joe becomes this in the episode Like A Dream. Diego wishes that he had a pillow that gives him good dreams. Ziggy poofs up a pillow and whatever you draw and put under in becomes true. After Zazie and Larry leave Joe to guard the pillow, the dream world changes when Joe revokes the dreams of Diego, Zazie and Larry and turns the dreamscape into his own dream where Diego's cafe is now his cafe and Ziggy is now his genie. Joe really does live up to the CunningLikeAFox stereotype in that episode:
-->'''Joe''': Welcome to MY dream. I removed your pictures from under the pillow and put mine there instead.
-->'''Zazie''': That's not very nice! And what was your dream?
-->'''Joe''': To find Ziggy's can before Diego did. Don't tell me you never wanted to!

* EarWorm: The theme song. "Three wishes set me free, trust me I'm a genie!"

** The ghost from the Midnight Haunt episode. Half of the episode, he was completely terrified of everyone before [[HeartwarmingMoments Ziggy helped him out.]]

* MarySue: Rita Van Hump

* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Sometimes happens with Adam Longworth’s voice as Ziggy.

* UnpopularPopularCharacter: Ziggy is somewhat of an in-universe BaseBreaker with Diego and his friends (Diego and Zazie like him, Larry and Sonia are neutral to him and Joe and Tony find him annoying) but he's generally well-loved by the audience because of his funny lines and JerkassWoobie status.

* NeedsMoreLove: It barely even has a fanbase let alone merchendise.

** Droma the camel mummy from the episode Chaos At The Museum, after Ziggy breaks the artifact thus separating him from his love.

* HoYay: There's a surprising amount of this with Diego and Ziggy. Also, in one episode Diego had an AccidentalKiss with Joe.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: If the show had a larger fanbase, Joe and Sonia would most likely be the best possible candidates for this.

* TheWoobie: Diego.

* MoralEventHorizon: Ziggy crosses it in the episode Boom Town where at the climax of the episode, he attempts to tear down the oasis so he can finally be set free from his can. Other than that, he's almost always portrayed as a JerkWithAHeartOfGold.
