1* {{Adorkable}}: Bessie's smart and goofy attitude has granted her a fanbase, even if it's not for everybody. It doesn't hurt that she has a cute lispy voice.
2* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic:
3** The theme song (despite its hard-to-hear lyrics), "Pretty Pretty Princess", and "Catatonic".
4** "Cause I'm Running with the Rainbow Unicorns... don't you wish you were ME!?"
5* BaseBreakingCharacter: Bessie. An {{Adorkable}} little girl with MotorMouth tendencies who is merely unaware of how much destruction she causes? Or a selfish, SpoiledBrat who treats all of her peers like garbage and needs to come out on top no matter what?
6* BizarroEpisode: The episode "Catatonic" is easily the weirdest episode of the series... and considering what the rest of the show is like, that's saying a lot!
7* CargoShip: Penny and Joey, the animatronic Kangaroo from [[SuckECheeses Jump 'n Joey's]]. She truly believes the robotic marsupial is alive.
8* DiagnosedByTheAudience: Millie Millerson. To list, she speaks in a monotone voice and loves shiny/reflective objects.
9* FashionVictimVillain: Portia. Socks with sandals? Really?
10* FoeYayShipping: The Bessie and [[LovingBully Portia/Gwen]] pairing is common online, maybe due to [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Bessie being oblivious to their cruelty]] and seeking their friendship.
11* HilariousInHindsight:
12** This wouldn't have been the last time Nickelodeon [[WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug had a cartoon that involved a pig-tailed, bug-themed superhero girl]] , even if Nickelodeon screwed over said series and had it move to Netflix. Ironically, Bessie's fantasy vision of being the titular superhero is bee-themed, considering the fact that Marinette's rival ChloƩ gets the Bee Miraculous in Season 2.
13** When Bessie says "Think positive, Penny" in the episode "Body Rockers", another [[WesternAnimation/InsideOut Amy Poehler character]] says the same line too!
14** This line involving the episode of Happy's mother comes to mind these days:
15--->'''Bessie:''' [[spoiler:[[VideoGame/AmongUs There's an imposter]] '''''[[VideoGame/AmongUs among us!]]]]'''''
16** The episode "My Way or the Bee Way" starts with Bessie fighting monster weeds with chainsaws on her arms. 4 years after the episode's release, [[VideoGame/Bayonetta2 a certain other bespectacled badass female]] would return to the gaming stage, her enemies this bout around including demonic plant monsters. Optionally, she can fight them with chainsaws on her arms.
17*** In the same episode, Portia gets trapped by monster vines. 4 years later, in the same game mentioned above, [[spoiler:a certain witch who [[Creator/GreyDelisle sounds just like Portia]] gets trapped in hell, her soul captured by a demon who controls and is associated with plants.]]
18* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: In "Gorillas in the Midst", when Bessie dresses up as Ben to complete The Gorillas training course. She has to jump hurdles, run through loop-de-loops, ''jump hurdles on a loop'', fight a lion to the death on a platform raised above a pit of hungry crocodiles using super kung-fu, tame a rolling boulder, and land in two bear traps before the finish. What a ''badass''.
19* MemeticMutation: "Honeybees don't (''slow motion'') FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART!"
20* {{Moe}}: Bessie, Oh {{Adorkable}}, goofy, cheerful Bessie...
21* NauseaFuel: As stated before, the show isn't a straight-up GrossoutShow, but the few gross-out gags is ''does'' pull can get a little ''too'' nasty, such as:
22** Happy eating vomit off the rollercoaster in "Sweet Sixteenth".
23** Bessie taking a girl's ''phlegm-covered thermometer'' ''''' and slurping every ounce of snot down like spaghetti''''' to catch chickenpox in "Apoxalypse Now".
24* SignatureScene: Portia's epic freak out at the end of "So Happy Together" when she discovers [[spoiler:her dog is actually a rat]].
25* {{Squick}}: The show can be pretty gross sometimes. There are multiple jokes about ''eating'' boogers for example.
26* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: "Bad to the Bee" strongly resembles Link Wray's "Rumble".
27* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The Girl Scout premise is actually quite unique, with the idea of Bessie gaining a new badge every episode helping to keep the show episodic. However, the premise usually takes a backseat to allow for complete insanity.
28* TheWoobie: Bessie. Even if you find her somewhat annoying, it's still easy to feel sorry for her since she constantly gets beaten down by her enemies, much to their amusement. [[ThrowTheDogABone Fortunately, she does end out on top for the most part]].
