Go To

Basic Trope: An episode in a series where the characters go fishing.

  • Straight: In an episode of "Charles and Diane", the main cast goes fishing.
  • Exaggerated:
    • Everybody in the series goes fishing that day.
    • The whole show is about fishing.
  • Downplayed: The scene where Charles and Diane are fishing is an important subplot, but not the main focus of the episode.
  • Justified:
    • Charles and Diane enjoy fishing.
    • Can be a way for Charles and Diane to bond with each other better.
  • Inverted: For some reason, Charles and Diane spend the entire episode releasing fish into water instead.
  • Subverted: Charles and Diane were really just playing a fishing simulator game with realistic graphics.
  • Double Subverted: "This game is the best. Anyway, we should probably start getting ready for our real fishing trip."
  • Parodied: Despite the cast being anthropomorphic fish, they still go fishing anyway.
  • Zig-Zagged: ???
  • Averted: Nobody goes fishing.
  • Enforced: "We need an episode to teach An Aesop about patience. Let's make a fishing episode."
  • Lampshaded: "This is so nice. Just you, me, and a lake full of fish, for a full [insert length of episode] minutes."
  • Invoked: Charles asks Diane if she wants to go fishing with him.
  • Exploited: Since Charles and Diane are close to water, they also use the opportunity to look for other types of lake creatures.
  • Defied: Charles hates fishing, and refuses to go on the trip.
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: "You didn't miss much. They just went fishing for the whole episode."
