comment
Gloria's House is a children's animated television series produced by Energee Entertainment and Your Family Entertainment (then known as RTV Family Entertainment AG). It is an Australian-German co-production.Gloria's House is the messiest house in a street full of perfect homes but it's a lot more fun than any of the other squeaky clean places in Chillsville. It stars Gloria and her equally eccentric family—her inventor father Wazza, her mother Molly, her older sister Notta, her younger brother Beat, and the family's long-suffering house cat Bill. Also starring are their insufferably posh neighbours where Millicent "Millie" Perfeck resides and the two strike an Odd Friendship despite their families and themselves being total opposites.

Men Can't Keep House
 Gloria's House / int_171b1206
comment
Men Can't Keep House: In "Coming Clean" Molly is incapacitated by an injury and Gloria and Notta are at a camping trip, which leaves Wazza and Beat to take care of cooking and cleaning. And they are utterly hopeless at it. Once the girls return from the trip, they prove to be more competent.

comment
Cordon Bleugh Chef: Gloria's mum has a knack for adding weird flavours in her food, such as a sauce that contains fish and chocolate for example. Despite this, the family loves her cooking. So it's either they have a Bizarre Taste in Food or Molly is just that good of a cook since it is shown that she's pretty good at cooking in general when she doesn't experiment. In "Food Gloria's Food", it seems to give credence to the latter because Millicent is seen asking for Molly's baked bean and chocolate sundae cake and all the other kids seem to like the snacks she makes as well.

 Gloria's House / int_4781adbb
comment
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Millicent is prone to acting nasty, especially to Gloria who she often makes fun of for how strange she is as well as her family. But she does consider her an actual friend and when she does something really bad, she feels guilty and eventually apologises. Even Dorothy has her own dawning moment, such as in "Coming Clean" when she saw that Molly has injured her leg whilst doing chores in the yard and is later seen cooking dinner for the Nits since Molly cannot do so. She's too proud to admit it, but it's obvious she still has kind regards for her old friend.

We Used to Be Friends: Downplayed. It turns out that Dorothy Perfeck is actually Molly's childhood friend whom she remembers as Dotty. Although Dorothy is quick to deny that they knew each other, Molly still considers her a friend of sorts, holding no ill will against her despite the Perfecks' cold reception of them.

Animals Lack Attributes: Zig-zagged with Gloria's cat Bill, who has a visible anus drawn as an 'x' at all times, but lacks genitalia despite being a tomcat. Majorly averted in "Home Sweet Home" when Millicent mistakes a bull for a cow when it turns out its large pink udders is actually the scrotum.

comment
Hime Cut: Millicent's hairstyle seems to be a rare example for a Western cartoon that is completely accidental, right down to the straight sidelocks dangling down her head which remains even when her hair is done up. Millicent also comes from a relatively upper-class background (compared to Gloria's family, that is) which evokes an Ojou of the Rich Bitch type.

Abhorrent Admirer: Rodney to Notta. To Notta's credit, she only really dislikes him if he's especially annoying but appreciates him when he proves helpful to her. It's subtly implied that she might like him back if he weren't so thickheaded. Ironically, Rodney has one as well from a girl named Leticia. It's obvious that he doesn't like her back, but she's more insistent and is even prone to jealousy when Rodney talks about Notta.

Inspirationally Disadvantaged: This is averted in the episode's treatment of Wheels in his titular episode. He is mentioned to be a champion swimmer, but that's because he's always been somewhat of an athlete before he got confined to a wheelchair. The fact that his paraplegia is caused by an accident rather than being born with it also makes his athleticism have some sense rather than having some contrived miracle explain it. It's also balanced out by showing his struggles over things that able-bodied people may take for granted, such as sitting at the dinner table.

She and Molly were able to make a compromise when it's discovered that the burgers Molly have cooked were made of lentils, encouraging her to revoke some of the restrictions by selling the old snacks alongside Molly's healthy but surprisingly delicious burgers.

Strong Family Resemblance: Gloria and her siblings have facial features that take after both their parents, particularly their noses. A flashback also shows that Gloria is a spitting image of her mother as a child. Millicent and Rodney also take after their parents in some capacity, especially the latter who looks like a skinnier and less intelligent version of his father. Peter, aka Wheels, a relative of the Perfecks looks quite a lot like his cousin Rodney, except more handsome and with a physique due to being a champion swimmer. And yes, that's despite the fact that he's in a wheelchair.

Unwanted Glasses Plot: In the episode "The Fine Print", this is inverted when Gloria learns that she's been failing school because of an onset of poor eyesight and is immediately open to having glasses so she could pass the oncoming test. The classic Snap Back occurs in the next episode when we see her not wearing them anymore, though it could be argued that she only needed reading glasses and is otherwise not recommended for her to wear them all the time.

Disabled Means Helpless: This is dealt with in "Wheels" when the Perfecks try too hard to assist the titular Wheels (real name: Peter), Millicent and Rodney's cousin, during his visit. Naturally, Wheels finds this offensive and calls them out on it. Fortunately, the Perfecks realise their mistake and back off a little. Of course, he still makes a point that he does need a bit of help at times since he could be seen struggling at one point to get through the door due to a raised platform.
