| My Dad the Rock Star | comment |
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be the kid of a world-famous rock musician?Well, 14-year-old Willy Zilla probably knows that better than anyone else in the world, for this mild-mannered boy is the son of Hot-Blooded rock 'n roll legend, Rock Zilla. Alongside his Granola Girl mother Crystal (Rock's wife), older sister Serenity (Rock's Bratty Teenage Daughter), the family's former tour bus driver Skunk, and their pet Komodo dragon Mosh, Willy has just moved into the town of Silent Springs, where his dad has decided to settle down in a big fancy mansion after many years of touring the world. Willy is ecstatic for the opportunity to finally live like how other kids do for the first time since he was born, attending school with his friends Alyssa and Quincy (nicknamed "Q") and trying to blend in with the crowd while avoiding everyday kid problems like his school bully "Buzz" Sawchuck. But as Willy knows all too well, when you're the son of The Rock Star, it's actually pretty hard to have a normal life, and sooner or later, being the kid of a celebrity is bound to get you noticed by others whether you want it or not.My Dad the Rock Star was the brainchild of none other than KISS' very own Gene Simmons. He originally produced it in the form of a kid's book called My Dad the Rockstar: Rebel without a Nose Ring, which was published in 2001 (and later adapted into an episode of the first season). However, Gene Simmons later decided to pitch his idea as an animated series to the world-famous Canadian animation studio Nelvana.The results debuted on September 1, 2003 on the Canadian animation network Teletoon, with Gene Simmons serving as executive producer for the series. Despite having excellent ratings on its origin channel, the show lasted for only 26 episodes over 2 seasons, as Gene Simmons wanted to focus more on different projects. It also aired in the United States on Nickelodeon.Nelvana has every episode on their "Keep It Weird" channel on Youtube. You can check them out here. | |

| My Dad the Rock Star / int_10dcbe05 | comment |
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Willy will readily admit that his parents drive him batty and being Mistaken for Subculture is one of the biggest annoyances of his life. However, it's clear that he does care a lot about his parents and never takes any badmouthing of them lying down. | |

New Sound Album | |
| My Dad the Rock Star / int_22093e9b | comment |
New Sound Album: One episode focuses on Rock trying to write one in order to change his image a little. He tries lots of styles before eventually settling on a sappy love ballad for his wife. Nobody's really happy with it... Except Crystal and Rock, of course. Also, inspired by Willy's simple trumpet piece at a talent show, he opened one album with a short, classical moment on the piano before breaking into the usual explosions and crazy. Willy loved it. Crystal also got the idea to publish her own line of New Age therapy exercises, and she asked Rock to come up with background music for them. Rock does his best, but he admits to Willy that without drums it all seems so horribly pointless. | |

She's a genuinely kind girl, even though her parents are controlling neat freaks (to the point that even their dog is plastic-wrapped) and her older brother Damien is a Goth who inexplicably spends his time counting every single blade of grass in their yard. | |

Kick the Dog: The D'angelos come off as uptight and pompous, but they really lose whatever likability they may have had once you hear the things they have to say about Willy's family. (Who they've never even met!) It's impossible to blame Willy for flipping his lid like he does. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| My Dad the Rock Star / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Because Serenity has been so pampered all her life by her family, when she stays home from the family's camping trip in "Call Of The Wild" she has no idea how to run the house all by herself and at the end a bunch of animals make their way into the house (including a skunk that sprays her) In "Metamorphic Rock" Rock shuts down the party Serenity is throwing instead of joining in. Rock star or not, he's still her father and an authority figure who has to enforce rules. In "Meet The Zillas" Willy is annoyed that him and his family are being filmed for a reality TV show and constantly invading his privacy. He decides he wants off the show, but Rock points out he's a minor and that decision is not up to him. In "Home For The Holly Daze" Rock, seeing carolers at the family's door, gets inspired to go door to door with rock performances of Christmas music. However, what he doesn't realize is loud rock music is not the same as kids singing Christmas songs, as his music causes property damage, noise complaints, and an angry mob after him. | |

| My Dad the Rock Star / int_4b86a724 | comment |
Getting Crap Past the Radar: In "Rebel Without A Nose Ring" Rock's chili causes him to breathe fire and burns off all his clothes. We see a small fabric of where his pants were, but the position of the pants fabric on his body makes it look like his pubic hair. In "Meet The Zillas" after Willy is filmed in the tub, Buzz at school the next day mentions he saw his "epidermis" on TV. Now epidermis means your skin, but since Willy was naked it's obvious what he was supposed to be referring to. | |

Your Costume Needs Work: When Rock returned to his old school to get an honorary doctorate, he ended up wandering into a fan club and being mistaken for a new member going through initiation. Thinking this was how to get the doctorate, Rock took part in the challenges and had a blast. It's not until after the final round that they realize he's the real deal, and the club's leader is mortified that he failed to recognize his idol. | |

I Am Not My Father: Willy spends a lot of his time, especially in earlier episodes, trying to convince people that he's "just Willy" and not that much like his parents' weirder qualities. On the other hand, he knows that his parents are Good Parents and genuinely good people and will angrily point this out to people who just assume they're horrid. Rock actually understands and sympathizes with Willy over this, revealing that he's the same way towards his father whose career as a cello player couldn't be further from Rock's wild lifestyle if it tried. | |

Artistic License – Animal Care | |
| My Dad the Rock Star / int_82ff8b68 | comment |
Artistic License – Animal Care: Mosh is walked on a leash, which is fine but the leash is attatched to his collar. It's highly recommended to use a harness to walk any non-dog type of pet, since their necks are not the same as dogs' and they can slip out of a collar. In "The Sound Of Zilla" Mosh is seen eating bratwurst and sausages, both of which are extremely bad for reptiles. | |

Spell My Name with an S | |
| My Dad the Rock Star / int_89a17726 | comment |
Spell My Name with an S: There is a dissonance between fans of the series who remember the short-lived official website that spelled the name of Willy's female friend as Alissa and fans that spelled it Alyssa. The latter stuck given that the original site is no longer around and had low traffic when it was and Alyssa is the more common spelling used in the majority of what fan works could be found of the series. | |

Not So Above It All: Rock's father is far more refined and interested in classier activities, but he's only too happy to boast that he's the more famous musician in the family and get into a shouting match with his son about it (in front of a large audience, no less). After the two mend fences, the old man partakes in Rock's tradition of Rockers Smash Guitars and takes the family to a monster truck show. | |

Berserk Button: Willy can usually take comments about his family in stride, as he knows they're pretty weird. But he flipped on the D'Angelos for insinuating that his parents must be horrible parents (especially for essentially calling his mother a gold digging tramp). And then there was the time Rock came out with his new single, "Rulebreaker". The Moral Guardians flip out and vilify Rock in the media, thinking that he's encouraging rampant chaos and destruction. Willy gets a lot of grief about it at school, until he finally explodes and sets the record straight on what Rock was really trying to criticize, namely stifling, oppressive rules that don't make any sense. | |

Mistaken for Subculture: A lot of Willy's problems come from people assuming that A) He's like his parents and B) that his parents fit every bad trope about Rock Culture. Angela D'Angelo's parents assume Willy's mother is some tramp and Gold Digger despite just seeing her from a distance once, and Willy's only hope of dating their daughter was to pretend he had different parents (which was blown out of the water once they started making comments about how awful the Zillas were). | |

Not That Kind of Doctor: When Rock Zilla's alma mater granted him a honorary doctorate, he thought he'd be that kind of doctor and started practicing the shout of "Calling Doctor Zilla". When he was told it wasn't that kind of doctorate and he'd instead be a sort of professor, he shouted "Calling Professor Zilla". | |

Fire-Breathing Diner | |
| My Dad the Rock Star / int_cce5bf0f | comment |
Fire-Breathing Diner: In "Rebel Without A Nose Ring" the chili Rock makes causes him to belch fire several times, which causes a problem when he has to speak with Principal Malfactor about Willy's issues at school. | |

Elvis Impersonator: One shows up at the Zillas' yard sale in "Kant Buy Me Love". In "King Of The Desert" Rock hallucinates an armadillo dressed as one. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| My Dad the Rock Star / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: In "Rebel without a Nose Ring", Willy is repeatedly framed by Buzz for pranks that he pulled, making Principal Malfactor assume that Willy is a delinquent. And when Rock goes to the school to try to smooth things over, he only winds up making it worse, to the point that Willy has to get reviewed by the school board on whether or not he should be expelled. When Rock comes to the meeting in a suit and tie as a means to back Willy up, he winds up belching fire because the tie was practically choking him. Willy pretty much assumes the worst at this point. Thankfully, the president of the school board is not only reasonable, but also a big Rock Zilla fan, so things work out in the end. And the cherry on top? Buzz gets detention for a month as punishment for everything he pulled, as it turns out said president is his dad. | |

Angela D'Angelo. She's a genuinely kind girl, even though her parents are controlling neat freaks (to the point that even their dog is plastic-wrapped) and her older brother Damien is a Goth who inexplicably spends his time counting every single blade of grass in their yard. | |

| My Dad the Rock Star / int_f6b2bfb7 | comment |
Angela D'Angelo's parents assume Willy's mother is some tramp and Gold Digger despite just seeing her from a distance once, and Willy's only hope of dating their daughter was to pretend he had different parents (which was blown out of the water once they started making comments about how awful the Zillas were). | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
| My Dad the Rock Star / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: In "Big Willy On Campus", Rock screams into a microphone and the sound is shown to travel through the cord in a bulging bubble, like water through a hose. Sound isn't "stored" in air, and would move through the microphone cord as a series of electrical impulses rather than anything physical. | |
