comment
Comic-Book Time: A few people consider this an aversion, since all the books could easily take place in one year. However, the Christmas Special book The Holly Joliday takes place in the series' regular time. Girl Detective is stated as taking place the October after that book, however, Judy and the other characters are still in the same grades and the same ages. Therefore, Judy and the other characters are Not Allowed to Grow Up.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Despite how Judy bullies Stink a lot, she often helps him out, most notably in Declares Independence where she chases Stink halfway across town after he fell asleep and got left behind on the school bus.

Green Aesop: Stink and the Freaky Frog Freakout has a lesson about how problems with the environment are causing depletion of frog species and mutations in frogs, including missing or extra legs and odd or missing coloring (albinism.)

Reassigned to Antarctica
 Judy Moody / int_5798bfbf
comment
Reassigned to Antarctica: While not a literal example, students in Judy Moody's class who act up or act out get sent to "Antarctica," which is a desk in the back of the classroom and nobody wants to be sent to Antarctica. Judy, being as moody as her name, spends a fair amount of time there.

comment
Growling Gut: In the live-action movie, Judy and Frank wants to ride the Scream Monster roller coaster but Frank has too many food on him to get denied to ride it, so he eat all of the food quickly before he rides it. After that, his stomach growls and rumbles obnoxiously before going to the top of the coaster and barfs all over Judy, much to her horror.

555: Both averted and played straight in Girl Detective. When a police-dog-in-training goes missing, the number to report information is given as 1-800-MR-CHIPS. Later in the book, however, a 555 number is given as being seen on a van for a plumbing company.

Karma Houdini: Judy gets a few of these. Most notably in one scene where she tricks Stink into eating pickle-flavored gum. Her father is nearby and makes no attempt to even scold Judy. Even lampshaded by Stink in that scene.

Pluto Is Expendable: In Stink: Solar System Superhero, Stink fails a test about the planets when Judy teaches him the "My Very Educated Mother Just Ate Nine Pizzas" mnemonic to help him remember the name of the planets, blissfully unaware that Pluto has been reclassified. Despite getting all of the other planets right, he gets a big red X on his paper. The, he and a classmate start developing new mnemonics, like "My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nothing."

After a brief appearance in Goes to College she wasn't heard from again until she starred in the Judy Moody and Friends picture book Amy Namey in Ace Reporter.
