History YMMV / SoRandom

* HilariousInHindsight: A real-life version of ''[[Series/WheelOfFortune Celebrity Wheel of Fortune]]'' premiered in 2021, on Disney-owned Creator/{{ABC}} no less.

* RetroactiveRecognition: Shayne Topp and Creator/DamienHaas, who portrayed recurring characters Shayne Zabo and Damien Johanssen, would later go on to join the cast of WebVideo/{{Smosh}} in 2015. Since then, they've carried the ''So Random!'' legacy with them. The latter would also go on to begin a successful voice acting career, with his most well-known role being the male version of Shez from the English dub of ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes''.

* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks!: The big criticism of the show is that it comes across as Disney's very tame and unfunny answer to Series/AllThat.

%% * SoBadItsGood: "Socks with Sandals," "Ketchup on Everything"… most of the songs are this.

** Damien would later gain more recognition by voicing Shez, TheHero of ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes''.

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: Inherent with being a Disney Channel-fied ''SNL'', it's kind of sad to look back and see the special guests in their earlier years, considering some of them either went down a bad path later in life (Music/JustinBieber, [[Film/LemonadeMouth Adam Hicks]]) or, in Music/ChristinaGrimmie's case, ''died''.
** Hell, the whole ''series'' could be this once you get old enough to [[RealLifeWritesThePlot know why]] Series/SonnyWithAChance [[Music/DemiLovato was retooled]] [[CreatorBreakdown in the first place.]]

* ShallowParody: It appears whoever wrote the Harry Potter sketch only knew a couple of names from the book, as Harry, who was raised by Muggles in a normal English city, struggles with life in the real world, but Ron, who has very little normal world experience in the books, gets along fine. They also don't seem to acknowledge Ginny's existance. It was later confirmed by [[WordofGod Shayne Topp]] that the writers had never seen or read Harry Potter before doin the parody.

* HilariousInHindsight: Actual [[Series/WheelOfFortune Celebrity Wheel of Fortune]] aired in 2021.

* TheBandMinusTheFace: Without Music/DemiLovato.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Audrey Whitby and Matthew Scott Montgomery.

* SoBadItsGood: "Socks with Sandals," "Ketchup on Everything"… most of the songs are this.

* EarWorm:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N87DEVdhgUU "Bringin' back-" "SOCKS AND SANDALS!" "What what what!" "SOCKS AND SANDALS!"]]
** Also the theme song, performed by Brandon Mychal Smith.

* RetroactiveRecognition: Shayne Topp who portrays recurring character Shayne Zabo, would later go on to join the cast of WebVideo/{{Smosh}} in 2015.

* HarsherInHindsight: Inherent with being a Disney Channel-fied ''SNL'', it's kind of sad to look back and see the special guests in their earlier years, considering some of them either went down a bad path later in life (Music/JustinBieber, [[Film/LemonadeMouth Adam Hicks]]) or, in at least Music/ChristinaGrimmie's case, ''died''.

* TheBandMinusTheFace: Arguably without Music/DemiLovato.
* DawsonCasting: At 34, Matthew Scott Montgomery, the guy behind the Rufus and Angus characters, portrays a teenage cast member on the show. Though his character's age was never mentioned, it was stated that he was supposed to be around 16 or 17 years old.
** {{Averted}} with Creator/TiffanyThornton and the other young cast members, Matthew was only 33 years old at the time when the show first aired on Disney Channel.

* CounterpartComparison: The show can best be described as a kid-friendly version of ''Series/SaturdayNightLive''.

* DudeNotFunny: Much like ''Series/ShakeItUp'', the show also contained an eating disorder joke that got less publicity.

** [[OlderThanTheyThink Same could be said about]] Series/AllThat to YouCantDoThatOnTelevision

* HarsherInHindsight: Inherent with being a squeaky-clean early 2010s Disney Channel show, it's kind of sad to look back and see the special guests in their earlier years, considering some of them either went down a bad path later in life (Music/JustinBieber, [[Film/LemonadeMouth Adam Hicks]]) or, in at least Music/ChristinaGrimmie's case, ''died''.
