| Strange Hill High | comment |
Strange Hill High follows the misadventures of friends Mitchell, Becky, and Templeton at their strange school.The series consists of puppets combined with Japanese toys and CGI animation.Now has a character sheet.Do not confuse it for the different spooky schools seen in two seperate comics that are also called Strange Hill (one in Whizzer and Chips, the other in The Dandy), both derive their name from being a pun on Grange Hill. Compare with Black Hole High, a show with a similar premise of strange goings-on in a school. | |

Stable Time Loop | |
| Strange Hill High / int_37690091 | comment |
Stable Time Loop: The plot of "The Most Boring Book in the World" centers around one. The book is actually a portal to when it was written. The Great Storm is Mitchell saving Becky and Templeton from the title book after getting sucked into it, and the author credit reading "Bartlemass Badooee" is due to Becky spilling ink on the book thanks to Templeton's meddling, which ends up obfuscating that it was written by Mr. Balding. The Great Storm in question causes chaos that leads to a student becoming a hero by getting the students to a safe place with Becky's advice to do so, and his name ends up getting marked as legend. | |

I Can't Believe It's Not Heroin! | |
| Strange Hill High / int_9b610976 | comment |
I Can't Believe It's Not Heroin!: Abercrombie and the demonically possesed Baby Doll act like they are on drugs when being addicted to candy. For example, deliriousness, uncontrollable twitching, and acting Ax-Crazy if denied the Choc O Splosion candy bar, though only the Baby Doll goes through this. | |

Meta Fiction: The show tends to note and exploit tropes for comedic reasons. Becky and Templeton once commented on the Stylistic Suck the show has, describing their universe as people who are "odd-looking puppets with rods coming out of their arms." | |

The Friend Nobody Likes | |
| Strange Hill High / int_a861560f | comment |
The Friend Nobody Likes: In terms of the students, Bishop's general stupidity combined with his attempts to act like a gangster usually don't earn him genuine respect, even from his own jock friends. The main trio also has Templeton, of whom is frequently disrespected by his other two friends for being a Cloudcuckoolander. Regarding the staff, on the other hand, this does not seem to apply as they all seem to bond over being jerks to the students. | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Templeton has a very... unique mindset. Anything slightly out of the ordinary he immediately worships and he actually obeys several villains when they tell him to grovel or bow down to them. He put gerbils in his ears to block Nimrod's constant reminders of the time left on a test. He wears socks with sandals and his socks are mismatched. | |
