* SadisticChoice: Null and Void from the episode of the same name try to force [=SheZow=] into one; Null threatens to have Kelly and Maz eaten by sharks, while Void tries to crash the moon into the Earth (which would kill everyone else). [=SheZow=] [[TakeAThirdOption takes a third option]] by pointing out that Void's choice will kill everyone on Earth... [[TooDumbToLive including himself and Null]], causing the two to argue and allowing him to save Kelly and Maz.

** The [=SheZow=] ring comes with an array of amazing powers, but can't be removed, forces anyone who wears it - even if they're male - to wear a tacky pink outfit with a dress and heels, and places a huge number of rules and restrictions on whoever wears the ring. For a few examples, Guy isn't allowed to steal or he will lose his powers and shrink to the size of a molocule, he can't back down from a superpower context, he can't merchandise himself for profit, and so on.

* BluffTheImpostor: In "[=SheZap=] is Whack", [=SheZap=] kidnaps Guy and pretends to be [=SheZow=] to the public. Kelly gets suspicious and manages to figure out the truth by speaking to [=SheZap=] in Spanish. When [=SheZap=] merely gets confused, Kelly's suspicions are confirmed, as Guy knows Spanish and would have known what she was saying.

* ShipTease: Maz/Kelly gets a few sporadic teases throughout the show. In "Lawn Gone Mad", when Maz and Kelly are trapped by the sentient vegetables and about to be killed, Maz is about to give what sounds like a LoveConfession before [[InterruptedDeclarationOfLove Guy interrupts him and blasts the vegetables away]].

Added DiffLines:

* DramaPreservingHandicap: Given that [=SheZow=]'s powers include near-invulnerability, super strength and speed, and a limitless array of gadgets for every situation, there are naturally several handicaps in place to ensure Guy can't simply go [=SheZow=] and end the episode in five seconds.
** If [=SheZow=]'s hair gets messed up, she will lose all of her powers. "Fibberachee" epitomises this, with Guy having his hair messed up about halfway through the episode, forcing him to run from the mind-controlled zombies until Maz can get him some hairspray, at which point he ''immediately'' ends the threat by knocking everyone down.
** Guy is a [[TheKlutz klutz]] who doesn't fully know how to use his powers, tends to be arrogant, and frequently trips over his heels or gets his cape snagged. These flaws make it so he frequently struggles in fights against others or ends up in danger to the point where Kelly or Maz have to step in.


Added DiffLines:

* LowSpeedChase: One occurs in "Fibberachee", between Guy/[=SheZow=] riding a tricycle and an army of mind-controlled zombies.

* ImmuneToMindControl: In "Fibberachee", the titular rock star hypnotizes everyone watching his concert into attacking [=SheZow=]. Despite being at the concert, Maz is completely unaffected because his poor ear hygiene resulted in his ears being blocked to the point where he couldn't hear the music.

* TeleporterAccident: In "She-T", Kelly and Maz get beamed upon an alien spaceship by Sheila so they can save Guy from the aliens. When they get there, it suddenly turns out that their bodies (but not heads) were switched. Kelly notes that she's now "built like a stringbean" and smells like [[ThePigPen chips and sour milk]], while Maz - who's now wearing Kelly's skirt - complains about feeling cold.

Despite ([[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity or because of]]) various anti-LGBT groups protesting the premiere (although the show does not address issues of transgenderness or homosexuality), the show received high ratings when it ran on the Hub Network, according to creator Obie-Scott Wade's Twitter account. Despite this, the series didn't get picked up for a second season, not so much due to rating but more that Hasbro was having financial issues at the time and ultimately sold network rights back to Discovery Inc. who in turn re-branded the channel to "Discovery Family" and started phasing out any non-animal related series, with SheZow becoming one of the casualties.
