Tropes

 * A Date with Rosie Palms: TBD
 * Absurd Phobia: Melody with hamsters.
 * Accidental Pervert: Evan and Luna at times.
 * Adorkable: Max.
 * Affectionate Nickname:
 * Max is actually short for Maximilian.
 * Melody is occasionally nicknamed Mel.
 * Amanda is occasionally named TBD.
 * To distinguish it from Amanda, Mandy's name is short for Madeline.
 * All Guys Want Cheerleaders:
 * Several people are attracted to Melody.
 * Eliza has Danny.
 * Alpha Bitch: Melody.
 * Ambiguous Disorder: it's unclear what disorder Amanda has, but it's implied it might be autism or Asperger's.
 * Ambiguously Bi:
 * The way Amanda acts towards Melody is rather suspicious, but she already showed interest on Max as well.
 * Harriet and Greta are in a relationship, yet they show some interest in some men.
 * Animated Shock Comedy: it mostly depends of the episode, but the series often tackles themes like incest, sexual harassment, rape, cosmic horror and TBD, in most cases for the sake of comedy, but it also downplays the use of strong language, highlights the characters' flaws and some episodes aren't that dark. If there's a line between The Simpsons and Rick and Morty, this would be in-between.
 * Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: despite all the times Melody made Max uncomfortable by her various methods to attract him, he deeply appreciates her love for him and even considers her his best friend.
 * Bare Your Midriff: TBD
 * Berserk Button:
 * TBD
 * Amanda doesn't take it well when she's implied to be retarded. She once even beat the shit out of Eugene just for that.
 * Best Friend: Amanda to Melody.
 * Beta Bitch: Amanda.
 * Beware the Nice Ones: TBD
 * Beware the Silly Ones: Amanda may be a ditz and near brainless without Melody around, but she has shown she can do things, especially when they mock her disorder. And she's almost as intelligent as Dahlia as evidenced by her grades. Imagine what kind of things she can do with her IQ.
 * Black Comedy: While not as dark as Sajoedri, USA and I Love Luke, the show still relies on dark humor.
 * Black Comedy Rape: Melody attempted to rape Max more than once.
 * Brother-Sister Incest: Evan and Luna are actually siblings, making Max and Dahlia both siblings and cousins. Let's just leave it at that.

 * Butt-Monkey: Max.
 * Chick Magnet: aside from his canon girlfriend Melody and Amanda, Max has also attracted the attention of Liam (despite being a guy), TBD.
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: TBD
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Amanda.
 * Comic-Book Time: nobody actually ages.
 * Comically Missing the Point: TBD
 * Cool Teacher: TBD
 * Darker and Edgier: compared to other shows like The Simpsons or King of the Hill, Terrestrials has some more mature humor and plotlines.
 * Distanced from Current Events: despite the mentions of other current events like TBD, the coronavirus pandemic is completely omitted from the show due to the mental damage it caused to some people as well as police brutality against people of color and other regligions and LGBTQIA+ people due to and it being too dark and preferring to portray the police as either moronic or crooked rather than racist/xenophobic/homophobic, despite some being actually honest/competent.
 * Distracted by the Sexy: TBD
 * Dirty Old Man: TBD
 * Double Standard: Rape, Female on Male: TBD
 * Dumb Jock: Danny.
 * Dysfunctional Family: averted since, despite their odds, the Terrestrials have a healthy relationship with each other.
