comment
Based on a popular W. Bruce Cameron column, 8 Simple Rules is your basic Dom Com where Paul and Cate Hennessy (played by John Ritter and Katey Sagal) attempt to ride herd on the burgeoning love life of their teenage daughters, bookish Kerry (Amy Davidson) and promiscuous Bridget (Kaley Cuoco). Rounding out the family is son Rory (Martin Spanjers), who is Paul's only other source of testosterone, and thus they bond often.The premise was good and it worked well... until the show was derailed by the death of John Ritter just two weeks before the Season 2 premiere. The resultant Retool brought in Cate's cantankerous father Jim (James Garner) and slacker nephew C.J. (David Spade). Because of Ritter's death, the show's name was shortened from the quirky 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter to simply 8 Simple Rules. The ratings also took a plunge shortly after episodes dealing with Paul's death and it was cancelled within two years. Despite this the show still managed to last a total of 76 episodes, 45 after Ritter's death when he had completed 31.The series aired on ABC from September 2002 to April 2005, a total of 76 episodes in 3 seasons.

All Men Are Perverts: A ton of examples: Kerry losing her virginity to a guy who says he'll call her but doesn't get her number. A 30-something guy who hits on Bridget at the gym. A guy who asks Bridget and Kerry out on separate dates. Rory kissing a random girl to practice for his girlfriend. C.J. going gaga over a woman with large breasts while dating another woman.

Amazingly Embarrassing Parents
 8 Simple Rules / int_1434e55c
comment
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Paul is one of the walking definitions of this trope. A lot of episodes shown he's fully aware of this trope and invokes it to have fun with the girls. Cate herself is not immune from this trope either — especially when she teaches Sex Ed in Bridget's class. Whenever Paul looks at his daughters, no matter how grown up and sexy they become he can only ever perceive them as a pair of adorable 8 year olds and treats them accordingly.

The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry: Popular and boy-crazy Bridget is the pretty sister, while Kerry is the smart sister. A few episodes do explore the conflict between these archetypes — mainly Kerry wishing that she were thought of as the pretty sister too.

Take Our Word for It: Kerry's painting is so brave and controversial, that even Paul can't look at it. We don't get to see it. There's also the video where Paul breaks Bridget's nose while playing tennis — we don't get to see that moment either, but it makes the entire family turn away in disgust.

The Punishment Is the Crime: In "Bridget's New Job," Bridget tried to get her parents to agree with this when, after getting a job at a clothing store, she racked up a huge bill for clothes, then paid it off with the emergency credit card given to her by her parents. It didn't work — she was still made to do work around the house to pay off the debt.

Backing Away Slowly
 8 Simple Rules / int_52856092
comment
Backing Away Slowly: After Cate's failed attempt at currying flavor to Kerry to get her to help Bridget study and pass her class by baking cookies in one episode due to the flavor being the favorite of Bridget's instead of Kerry's, she bakes cookies once more at the end of the selfsame episode, this time to compliment Kerry for her helping Bridge pass her class successfully. Unfortunately, Cate remains unable to remember Kerry's favorite cookie flavor, as evidence by everyone else's reaction when Cate announces the flavor of the cookies in question — Jim, Rory, C.J., and Bridget all sport an Oh, Crap! expression, drop the cookie each of them is holding at the moment, and proceed to inch away from the kitchen in this fashion.

Prom Wrecker: Subverted. CJ thinks Rory is going to do this at the school's Halloween dance by blowing up a giant pumpkin decoration. Since he's the head of security for the dance, CJ goes to stop him. However, the actual prank is to have Rory's friends dress as members of The Village People, surround CJ (who is dressed like a police officer), and start dancing to "Macho Man". This is meant to evoke a similar event that happened when CJ was a kid.

Hourglass Plot: No Right Way, the second episode aired after John Ritter's passing, shows Bridget easily bouncing back from Paul's death and eagerly preparing for a dance, and Kerry sulking all alone and resenting Kyle for saying he loves her, thinking he simply felt sorry for her. Come the end of the episode, Bridget gets ready to go to the dance, but suddenly breaks down in tears. After the sisters have a conversation with Kate, Kerry ends up going to the dance and having a good time with Kyle, and Bridget stays home, crying.

Not So Above It All: Kerry speaks about how shallow modelling is when an agent comes around to see Bridget. However the agent says her red hair is fabulous and suggests she try it too — reducing Kerry to a bashful pile of giggles. The Stinger has her acting out the commercial Bridget auditioned for in her room.

And a third time after Rory comes up Paul mocking his sisters — "Dad? Do you think I'm pretty?" "Get out!" In fact, this is something of a running gag with Rory throughout the series.

Oh, Crap!: "You know!" Shouted by Kyle to Paul after a long, awkward silence before fleeing the house. Justified since Paul knows that Kyle cheated on Bridget with Kerry.

Madonna-Whore Complex: Initially in Season 1. Bookish conservative Kerry is contrasted with outgoing flirty Bridget. It keeps subverting the trope however as Kerry is the first to lose her virginity, by cheating on her boyfriend too. One episode actually has Kerry remark that Paul expects her to be "some old spinster like Miss Havisham" — and she acts like a Whore to annoy him.

Appeal to Flattery: In one episode, Cate finds out she used to date her daughters' principal. She believes he's being too harsh on them because she broke up with him. However, he claims he was the one who broke up with her. Cate spends the rest of the episode trying to prove she was the one who broke up with him. Her daughter Kerry tries to tell her to let it go. Cate then says she's just trying to prove she was both studious and sexy in high school, just like Kerry. This convinces Kerry to support her.

But I Would Really Enjoy It: Trope Namer. Specifically, in "Closure," Kerry has her ex-boyfriend over and his hiding him in the attic. She ends up kissing him and panics and leaves the room, saying that she's not ready for that, that she's starting to want to and she doesn't think that she wants to want to. She runs to her older sister, Bridget, explaining what happened and that she's starting to get feelings for him again but isn't sure she wants to. Bridget tells her that she needs to get of the house. She agrees that it's a good plan, that she shouldn't be around him because she might do something that she'd regret. Though she would enjoy it, but she would regret it. "I mean, I'd really enjoy it, but..."

Comically Missing the Point: Rory's class make fun of him for Paul coming into the school wearing slippers. At the end of the episode Rory dumps a box of slippers on Paul's bed — saying kids have been stuffing them in his locker. Paul gets interested in one sheepskin pair. When Cate finds a joint in Kerry's bag and asks her where it came from, CJ grabs it, takes a long sniff, and says "I'm guessing not Amsterdam. Maybe western Canada. I'm really good at this." When everyone glares at him, he sheepishly adds, "And that's not the point, is it?"
