| 2 | Nickelodeon's MadeForTVMovie starring surprisingly A-list actors (Creator/ChristopherMeloni from ''Series/LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit'', Creator/AmySedaris and others from ''Series/StrangersWithCandy''). Meloni plays Dave Stewie, a gym teacher (duh) who hopes to chase away an OldShame by winning "Gym Teacher of the Year". To do that, he needs a fully-polished and capable class, which he has until incredibly uncoordinated NewTransferStudent Roland Waffle arrives. Oh, and the hot teacher Dave has a crush on turns out to be Roland's mom. StrictlyFormula here, to the point where the costume design, particularly Roland's helmet and the school's ham mascot, is the most creative part of the whole movie. |

| 4 | !!This film provides examples of: |
| 5 | |
| 6 | * AffectionateParody: Of most sports movies. |
| 7 | * ChekhovsGun: Almost everything the principal says, left completely hanging. |
| 8 | * GRatedDrug: Pirated [=DVDs=], "enough to prove intent to sell..." |
| 9 | * LargeHam: Pretty much everyone gets a turn. (Also, the school mascot is ''literally'' a LargeHam) |
| 10 | * MadeForTVMovie |
| 11 | * SafetyWorst: Roland's mom makes him wear a helmet for gym class, which has led to him wearing it whenever he leaves the house, including all day in school- OK, let's start the FridgeLogic with the fact that his mom's a ''middle school teacher'' and should know what kind of target that paints on him... |
| 12 | * StrictlyFormula: Will Coach Stewie overcome the humiliation of 20 years of sports blooper shows and finally get on a Wheaties box? Will Roland cast aside his helmet, climb to the top of the rope and save the day? Was there ever ''any'' doubt? |
| 13 | * WritingAroundTrademarks: Stewie messed up a jump "at Seoul in 1988". The word "Olympics" is never mentioned... |
