Remember the days of Nickelodeon that featured ordinary kids getting thrust into wild and wacky supernatural situations with a healthy dose of comedy and danger? No? Well apparently Nick decided that the kids of today needed a refresher course, hence the science fiction comedy show The Troop.The show focuses on three Oklahoma high schoolers that suddenly are thrust into a secret society, courtesy of their school counselor, that protects humankind from all the supernatural scourges in existence that we think aren't real, but most assuredly are. The main characters consist of: Jake (Nick Purcell): A massive comic book/superhero buff who is more than enthused that he has been enlisted into the world of... world-saving. Felix (David Del Rio): The resident brains of the group. Somewhat awkward in regards to social norms, he wants to reveal to anyone and everyone what the group does in order to boost his status, but due to a previously taken oath, reluctantly refrains. Hayley (Gage Golightly): The school's most popular beauty queen, good at everything and anything, but discovers her monster-battling abilities are less than subpar. Usually ends up being the voice of reason when she's not concerned about her popularity. Kirby Cadworth-Bankroft III (Matt Shively): A rich kid who used to be part of the Tulsa Troop and transfers in after Felix leaves to go to Troop International. Mr. Stockley (John Marshall Jones): The current school administrator/counselor who enlists the kids into the world of The Troop. Loves his job a little TOO much, which tends to disturb the trio at times. Cadence Nash (Malese Jow): Joins the group late in Season 2. She is half-monster and a Foil to HayleyThe show ran for two seasons and was canceled midway into the second, leaving seven unaired episodes (in the US at least). While other countries managed to get the full series run, all but three of the unaired episodes made their way to the Nicktoons network in the US.Not to be confused with F Troop or Goof Troop, or the horror novel The Troop. | |

Control Freak | |
| The Troop / int_11ad560b | comment |
Jake's story: he hits back with a version that portrays Hayley as a massive Control Freak too involved in her club activities; she gets replaced because she obsessed over trivial details rather than keep her guard up. Felix is portrayed as an even more pathetic nerd. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| The Troop / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: "Oh Brother" might as well be titled this! First, not only will Cadence not tell Jake she's half-monster, she keeps it a secret that her maneating brother is hanging around, which would've saved her the trouble of being held at gunpoint by Hayley and being forced to tell Jake in that manner. While that's a bit understandable because she still loves her brother, Jake could've solved everything if he'd just told Cadence that her brother wasn't dead...and was unconscious in a crate right beside him! "Batteries Not Included" played it for laughs. Hayley rejected setting Jake up with a friend of hers, saying they were in different leagues. Jake spends a subplot grousing about this and considering it a huge insult, finally having it out with her. Hayley explains that she didn't mean the friend was too good for Jake; she meant that Jake was too good for her friend. Ship Tease ensues. | |

Halloween Episode | |
| The Troop / int_297170d3 | comment |
A monster called a Danker is locked up in the Halloween Episode. According to the Troop monster guide, it has a razor-sharp tongue, but there's nothing to suggest that it's ever used or that represents a danger to society. When the power grid goes down and the monsters escape, terrorizing the city, the Danker stays in its cell and keeps Jake company. If anything it seems more annoying than threatening. | |

Gas Leak Cover-Up | |
| The Troop / int_2c7f645b | comment |
Gas Leak Cover Up: When the gym is destroyed by enormous worm monsters during a big dance, the Troop destroys the monsters and uses their miniature memory zapper monster (the snark) on everyone. As everyone surveys the wreckage, the Troop's adult advisor cheerily tells them that there had been a simple plumbing leak. In a later episode, they open a portal to a monster dimension and cover it with a tent and a gas leak sign. Unfortunately, the sign looks like one used by a band named "Gas Leak" and the heroes find themselves surrounded by fans who won't let anyone explain they're talking about an actual leak instead of the band. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| The Troop / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Daniella Monet playing the sister of the Eris Fairy (played by Victoria Justice) was obviously a reference to Victorious, where Monet and Justice play sisters. Interestingly, Monet played the good one and Justice played the troubled one. Kelsey Grammer voices Dr. Cranius. Cranius boasts of having attended Harvard, which Frasier Crane also did. It's not the first time Malese Jow has played a monster. | |

Noodle Incident: When Troop International showed up to arrest Cadence, Kirby commented that all he knew about International Law was about having parties on boats and importing white tigers. While Kirby being a rich kid might explain him being no stranger to those parties and laws that affect them, one must wonder how he'd know about the tiger part. | |

Big Eater: Cadence. In each episode, she has been featured in (so far, not many), there is at least one scene where she eats (off-screen) quite a large amount of food for someone her age. In the first episode, she was in she eats 3 whole pizzas by herself. This is probably due to the fact that she is really half monster. | |

"Rashomon"-Style | |
| The Troop / int_7bb1296b | comment |
"Rashomon"-Style: "I, Monster" has a shape-shifting monster escape and cocoon one of the trio before taking that form. During the stand-off and back-and-forth accusations over who is who, each one comes up with a story over how a given person was replaced. Hayley's story: Jake is portrayed as a hopeless, comic book-reading slacker that constantly says "Dude"; he gets cocooned because he was goofing around and not listening to Hayley. Felix is also portrayed as a stereotypical nerd. Jake's story: he hits back with a version that portrays Hayley as a massive Control Freak too involved in her club activities; she gets replaced because she obsessed over trivial details rather than keep her guard up. Felix is portrayed as an even more pathetic nerd. Felix's story: he offers a scenario where he himself was replaced. He portrays himself as a James Bond-esque spy, Hayley fawning all over him, Jake completely dependent on him, Stockley as a general, and the monster talking like a supervillain. Felix concedes he doesn't believe any of this happened or that he was ever replaced; he was just annoyed with how pathetic he was portrayed in the other two stories. The final reveal is that Jake was replaced. What really happened involves bits of all three stories: the talking monster attacked Jake after distracting him with a trivial question, though he tries to save face by lying about getting in a few good punches. | |

An Alien Named "Bob" | |
| The Troop / int_856297f1 | comment |
An Alien Named "Bob": In "Eris Returns", the Eris Fairy Cecillia's Psycho Ex-Boyfriend is a monstrous, multi-armed Vrog from Another Dimension... named Todd. Cecillia herself has a human name, which is in stark contrast to her sister's Unpronounceable name. | |

Harmless Villain | |
| The Troop / int_8c23b321 | comment |
Harmless Villain: A monster called a Danker is locked up in the Halloween Episode. According to the Troop monster guide, it has a razor-sharp tongue, but there's nothing to suggest that it's ever used or that represents a danger to society. When the power grid goes down and the monsters escape, terrorizing the city, the Danker stays in its cell and keeps Jake company. If anything it seems more annoying than threatening. Also the Sniffer, who is locked up is the highest security, not because he's dangerous, but because he is incredibly annoying | |

Just as Felix and Jake start to turn around to look at the naked Hayley behind them, they hear her circutron gun charging and she warns them not to turn around if they don't want to get evaporated. | |

Grass is Greener: One episode has a subplot where Stockley meets up with his old Troop buddies. They all have very successful careers, so he feels embarrassed about working in the school. They, however, think it's more impressive that he's mentoring a Troop team. | |
