Gamer's Guide to Pretty Much Everything is a Kid Com on Disney XD starring Cameron Boyce of Jessie fame that premiered on July 22, 2015 and concluded on January 2, 2017 after two seasons. Its premiere occurred alongside a Lab Rats/Mighty Med Crossover.In this series, Cameron plays Conor, a teenage professional gamer who is forced into retirement due to a thumb injury and must now navigate life as a regular student. Along the way, he runs into three fellow gamers — Wendell, Franklin and Ashley — who he convinces to help him try to rejoin the professional gaming circuit and they soon form their own professional gaming clan. The show is presented through a framing device within the context of Conor's viewpoint, which usually takes the form of a video game interface.On January 10, 2017, it was annouced that the show was cancelled.This marks Boyce's last TV series as a main cast member before his unexpected passing in July 2019. |

Why We Can't Have Nice Things: In The Gaming Club, Doyle gets overzealous and pours drink over Conor's gaming equipment. This leads Conor to say the trope verbatim. |

Alpha Bitch: Lika, in the gaming arena, has the attitude typical of one, constantly belittling Conor and trying to upstage him. |

Game-Breaking Injury: This is what made Conor's life change, as a thumb injury in a gaming competition caused him to lose and retire from competition. |

Godlike Gamer: Conor is famous as a professional gamer, going by the handle Kid Fury. Unfortunately, he was forced to retire because of... a thumb injury. He can still game, though, and he does so with his team of gamer friends. |

comment |
Extreme Omnisexual: Stu is seen kissing the spirit egg in front of his girlfriend Tammy. The kiss lasts so long that she becomes frustrated and walks off to his dismay. It's pretty easy to thing that this trope is being Played for Laughs, but in a later episode, Stu gets fired for mouth-kissing a Soccerball. To his credit, he admits he deserves termination for this, but it's hard not to think he has an object fetish. |

comment |
Jerk Jock: Doyle, although he does respect others who have school spirit, such as believing Conor can win gaming competitions against other schools. It's also subverted in "The Ghost" in that he comes off as a Well-Intentioned Extremist who steals kids' candy because he cares about their teeth. To emphasize, he suffered a terrible cavity when he was younger and it prevented him from achieving an important dream, and he didn't want the same to happen to other kids if they eat candy. When Franklin suffered tooth damage Doyle calls his dentist to schedule an appointment for him (even though Franklin is afraid of the dentist). |

comment |
Down the Drain: In the first episode, Conor and the rest of the team escape detention by going through the sewer system underneath the school. This is even invoked to be a video-game style level (naturally, given the series' premise). |

Laser-Guided Karma |

comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: In "The Chair", the main cast makes a bet on who can go the longest without gaming. The winner gets to keep a state-of-the-art gaming chair (presumably donated by a sponsor). Franklin manages to win by tricking each of the other team members into gaming, but the chair promptly shorts out when he tries to use it. |
