History WesternAnimation / FancyNancy

* AnAesop: Every episode has one.
** One of the most common recurring ones seems to be that something that you may not think of as being fancy or special can actually turn out to be. Or, that it can be to someone else and may be to you too if you take the time to appreciate it. Nancy has a strong tendency to [[AesopAmnesia forget this]].
** A series-wide message is about how it's good to think big, but not at the expense of your friendship with others.
** "Le Café Parfait" says that while it's good to impress others, you shouldn't bend over backwards for people who don't appreciate your work.
** "Au Revoir Jean Claude" shows that you can't shield others from death, while also saying you can't bottle up how you feel. It's about how you move on from that and honor their memory.

* FriendlyEnemy: While Grace often antagonizes Nancy, there are times she can be neutral/civil towards her. She even willingly took part in Nancy's strike to save Oaky.

* IAteWhat: Dad and [=JoJo=]'s reaction in "Nancy's Ooh La La Spa" when Nancy tell them that they've been eating the spa products she made for Mom and left in the fridge, even though it's all perfectly edible and tasty stuff. (Specifically, avocado paste and cucumber slices.)

* ImagineSpot: A major component of the series often has Nancy going into a fantasy on how easy things will be. [[Main/RealityEnsues It's not as easy as she thinks.]]

* RealityEnsues: The episode "Shoe-La-La" has Nancy wanting a pair of shoes that cost $40, and when she tries to buy the shoes, she's told that the price includes tax, which makes the shoes cost more, meaning she doesn't have enough money.

* TitlePlease: Unusual to other shows, Nancy says the episode’s name at the start, but the title does not appear onscreen.

* RaceLift: Roberto was named "Robert" in the original book series and was caucasian. In the series, he is given a race lift to Hispanic.

* GreenEyedMonster: Nancy occasionally dips into this. In "Nancy's Supreme Night Out" , she's shown being jealous when Bridgette gives Jojo better treatment over her at the pizza restaurant. In "Nancy's Friendship Faux Pas" , she's shown being jealous when Bree keeps inadvertently ignoring her when they hang out with Megan. A more literal example in that she has green eyes.

* YeahShot: Nancy and her friends do this at the end of "School De Fancy". Bonus points for the FreezeFrameEnding as the episode fades out.
