YMMV / True Jackson, VP

• Bizarro Episode: Just what was the Trapped in Paris episode?
  • Likewise True Fear features Lulu and Ryan sure that the new male model from Transylvania is an actual vampire. The episode ends with True, Lulu, Ryan, Oscar and Amanda looking through Ryan's photo history book finding several pictures of the model at the Civil War, fighting in Iwo Jima and playing in 1934 World Series. While Amanda laughs it off as impossible the other four watch horrified as a seemingly turned and entranced Mr. Madigan and Kopleman approach her, ending with Amanda giving out an ear piercing scream, cutting to black and leaving the groups fate a mystery, before returning with a PSA from a helicopter riding Secret Agent talking about carrots.
• Fridge Horror: "Amanda Hires A Pink" ends with one Pink (who wore roller skates) lost in the air vents. "True Disaster" has Oscar finding a skeleton wearing roller skates in the air ducts.
• Informed Wrongness: Jimmy in "True Fame" was painted as in the wrong for being okay with True going to an award show with celebrity Leon Thomas. Even though throughout the episode, True had expressed no interest Leon Thomas and he was being entirely respectful of that willing to be just friends with her. It came off as him being wrong for trusting her.
• Strawman Has a Point: Mr. Madigan's no dating policy actually has a basis in reality. Studies have shown on the job romance is high risk as it can decrease productivity while creating an environment at high risk for lawsuits due to sexual harassment. Obviously, this wasn't going to happen with True & Jimmy but it's revealed so casually it seems to have been in place for a while.
• Tear Jerker: In "True Crush", True is hoping to attend a ball with Jimmy, but he goes with Vivian, the New Model that had been hired instead. Her devastation tugs at the heartstrings. The fact that Vivian is genuinely a nice person, who took an almost instant liking to True, and vice versa, thus True can't bring herself to hate her, despite her ruining her chance with Jimmy, just make the situation all the more harder.
• Unintentionally Sympathetic: Amanda in "Mystery In Peru" everyone was treating the ceremony as a burden on them rather than the most important day of her life even doing everything they could to avoid helping her. Even worse considering she acted much more reasonable than Doris did during her wedding.
  • Ryan from the same episode is told he lost the bet, even though it was his insight the led True & Lulu to figure out the thief's plan. He was entirely right to call it a tie.
