It’s called a couch gag, the trope name comes from the Simpsons Infamous couch gags that vary between episodes and more recently are actually used for padding, the more time needed to fill the longer the gag will be. But in Pepper Ann it’s just random stuff found under her desk.
I use to get in trouble for screaming that part of the song that goes "Pepper Ann she like one in mill-yaaaaaaaaaaan!" I got slapped upside the head soo many times from my mom. Ahhh, memories....
Pepper Ann was my girl! I used to watch with my mom and she liked it because of how relatable the storylines were. Especially with the mother being a single parent, as she also raised me alone.
I watch Pepper Ann myself back then. When I was in Middle School, I felt just like her. Trying to struggle growing up and having every misadventures of my life.
How time flies, I'm turning 30 next year. It felt like just yesterday when I was sitting with my legs crossed with eyes fixated on the TV ,with my siblings. Cherish life guys.
Yeah I'm a year younger than you and i feel this...so very much. I think about how many kids our age watched the same shows we did at the same time every week, and where they are now
me too. i always think about the other people that got to enjoy, compound, relate, and draw inspiration from such moments so early on in their life. Because really, all of the people's past, influences, and all that are being carried on silently into the future, and it makes me wonder more because of it, where those people are at now.
One of the rawest pitches I've ever heard when she yells saying "million!" I never really got to enjoy this show when I was a kid but I'm glad its on disney plus.
I bet Pepper Ann is the only teenager that the Kids Next Door will allow to hang out with them. One of her friends, Nikki, reminds me of Numbah 3 somehow in my own opinion. While Pepper Ann's glasses are exactly like Numbah 2's and the shoe style are exactly like in Codename: Kids Next Door. Edit: Someone needs to make a Pepper Ann and Codename: Kids Next Door crossover story, and one where she and her friends hang out with the Galactic Kids Next Door.
They did it was called toon disney but they got rid of it and put disney xD hopefully replay disney will play it well the Christmas/ hannukah ep of this is in the disney app
Toon Disney did show original content but later on around 2003 or 2004 it started to show all the Disney cartoon shows, both old and new. The main Disney channel showed everything else. Then I say around 2009 they took Toon Disney off air and a few years later it was replaced with DXD. However, The main Disney Channel decided around when Toon Disney became the main cartoon channel to show cartoons at night rather than during the day.
One day in the sand, In the fray, no man's land, Emp'ror Bibi tried to take the Hidden Dune. With the whole Middle East In his palm, on a leash Held in his own hand he'd rule, but not us too!

You said it. The 90s was the best decade ever graced with closing the 20th century; and like Frank Sinatra, they did it their way, although what I just said is ironic given that Frank Sinatra died in the 90s.
One time I was excessively singing this song around my brother and he randomly just blurted out PEPPER ANN PEPPER ANN SHE'S A GAY LESBIAN MAN and I literally almost stopped breathing laughing so hard.
Loved how she would find something different under her desk at the end of the theme song, every new episode 😍 Gosh I miss the ABC + NBC Saturday morning line ups (kid, tween and teen nostalgia)
When my husband and I got our puppy, this song had been stuck in my head for the whole week. Our baby girl, Pepper, was named after Pepper Ann. No one's cooler than our Pepper. 💜
When I was a kid, 10-13, I had a public access TV station where I lived in Canada. I had no idea if it was a pirate station, or just somewhere where they got the rights to it, but they used to air Disney Channel and Nickolodeon shows from the 90’s and early 2000’s. We had cable, which was where I got my fix of shows like Foster’s Home, and Futurama, but I always watched that station. I never really liked this show, and it was usually where I made myself a grilled cheese for lunch, but I always made sure to hear this theme song. Because I hated it. Especially that “one in a mil-IOOOOON”. But now, whenever I hear this, I get great memories, of watching Invader Zim, Rugrats, Recess, Teacher’s Pet, Spongebob, Catdog, and then this. Man, I’d give anything to get those days back.
Stellar tunesmith Brian Woodbury wrote this song. He also wrote songs for other Disney kids shows including The Book of Pooh and Bear In The Big Blue House.
I just put together this theme song is Emilia Farts too. I knew it sounded familiar but wasn’t sure and came here to check my nostalgia if I was right or not
One of the best 90s cartoon theme songs, I love the random talking in-between and the "she's too cool for 7th grade" was always my favorite line for some reason.
I remembered at the end of every theme song she found something different and I actually remember this episode where she said “cool, a mood ring.” Ahh my childhood
Not sure if anyone knows this but this song is sung by Kathleen Wilhoite. She is the actress that plays Liz on Gilmore Girls and is also the voice of Pepper Ann. You can really hear her raspy voice in this theme song. Never would have known that as a kid!
I used to watch this at my grandma's house when I was little, and I got so excited when it came on. I was born in '97, so the show is literally as old as me LOL but still one of my favorite shows as a kid. Man.. miss those days..
I used to love Pepper Ann! I remember most clearly the episode where she had that self playing piano, and felt guilty for using it and she kept hearing Green Sleeves, cause that's the only song it played. I also remember one time, at Wal-Mart, I found a Pepper Ann paper doll book and went insane. Back then, my mom would buy us something if we were good, and that was my treat for the day. I played with it so often, it was totaled within a week. Oh, good times.
this theme song has been in my head for actual decades
Idk what it was about this show that i loved so much but i can still watch this today
She's like one in a MILLION!
Literally same
True
Same
she's one in a mill-IONE
so, statistically there's 7,000 more pepper anns out there?
@Andriod Kenobi Well by looking at the comments claiming that Pepper Ann is a lesbian...yeah there is.
"She's *like* one in a million" don't mess up the lyrics!
I die every time 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The singer really nailed pubescent voice crack in that part.
i liked how she always found something different under desk in the intro.
Never noticed that...
It’s called a couch gag, the trope name comes from the Simpsons Infamous couch gags that vary between episodes and more recently are actually used for padding, the more time needed to fill the longer the gag will be. But in Pepper Ann it’s just random stuff found under her desk.

When I thought 7th graders were so much older and mature than I was

7th grade feels so long ago even though I’m only a freshman lol
Ha! This is true.
Oh yes my child
Been there.
She’s like one in a MILLIONNNNN 🗣
Never have I heard a more hyped syllable
Omfg I just bust out in laughtee at this. I didn't notice it in the 90s!
THE ONLY REASON I CAME TO LISTEN TO THIS SONG
mill-YAAAAAN!!!
@@Amins88this is the most Accurate Way of what the singer says😂
This theme song was so angsty and cool. Definitely got a 90s beat to it.
Its like a Riot Grrl song
True
Sounds like Courtney love
This song is really grunge.... Ahh the 90s
It reminds me of The Muffs
Reminds me of the Daria theme
Hell ya! That 90s emo grunge vibe
I believe this would be the same band that sang the theme song for “All Grown Up (Rugrats)”
Edit: Never mind, different singers
Ricky/Anthony Hope when ear song i thought it was no doubt
I use to get in trouble for screaming that part of the song that goes "Pepper Ann she like one in mill-yaaaaaaaaaaan!" I got slapped upside the head soo many times from my mom. Ahhh, memories....
I laughed so hard reading this, because I can relate, favorite part of the song
HAHAHA! I can relate soooo much! This happened to me too! XD

Holy shit, I didn't realize that Tom Warburton worked on this too. I just realized how similar the characters look to Codename Kids Next Door.
I just noticed this! I looked up this show after years and years. The style is very similar but tonally quite a different show. 👌👌
I was wondering about this just now when I looked at her teacher lol
Funny you point that out, you can see the similarities in the illustration

@@lisettegarcia7013 7th grade where I’m from is 12 so I think she’d be a kid still. Still that’s a sweet idea
Just now realizing Pepper Ann sang her own theme song 😂😂
Well someone's gotta do it
Seems like everyone remembers me... And the fact that my voice actress sang the theme... That's just fine
I didn’t know it for a fact but I figured that was the case as a kid
False
@@Keychan64 true.
This show was out when i was a kid in the late 90s early 2000s and I just turned 34 😢 this theme randomly pops in my head that's why I'm here lol
"Did someone take my lunch?"
Gets me every time. lol
In France it was "who stole my strudel ?"
I always died laughing at that part
Especially the way she’s skating lol
The Sopranos crossover where Tony had her killed was one of the darkest episodes of television I've ever seen.
LOOOL yess
I’m sorry WHAT?!! 😅
@@XTesT15Xit’s actually real. Search Sopranos Pepper Ann

Yes. This song was a mess and we all loved it.
Yep
Born in '94 and still remember this.
'95 for me.
+FlashyFox2001 This came out in 97 doe...
+FlashyFox2001 '90 here
yeah I use to watch this too I was born in 89
1991 for me lol
I miss shows like this.They need to come back
I really liked the Pepper Ann crossover episode with the Sopranos. Shame she got whacked.
Shame they never found those black guys
But Tony, you said she was too cool for 7th grade.
She's like one in a moolinyan.
Don't you say her fucking name! I FUCKING LOVED PEPPER ANN
They never did find those two black guys who shot up the school and shot her specifically
This show was one of the reasons I was happy to have been a child in the 90s.
She's like one in a milli-ONN!
Same creator who worked on this also worked on KND and I never knew that. :0
woah... makes sense.
I knew it. Same art style
The FrostyPuffMan no the creator of knd was not the creator of this show he was just the character designer
The FrostyPuffMan TEH CREATOR WAS A WOMAN NAMED SUE ROSE, THAT ALSO CREATED ANGELA ANACONDA AND UNFABULOUS

The 90's had some up and downs, but we all know that they were the best in our lives.
@@lisettegarcia7013 The 90's were so much better than the lame and overrated 80's. Period.
Only if all good shows for kids got a series finale depending on when you were born
the way she says “one in a mill-YUN” always sentttt meeee
This and Darkwing Duck were the two best intros ever.
Don't you dare say that without mentioning CatDog's theme song ever again.
Carl Brown I'm sorry lol. Too many great shows
dxburner222 Let's... get... Dangerous..
lol definitely
Just realized Beatle juice is up there with CatDog, but the visuals are the main interest.

Through a storm a day we fight,
Growing stronger by each passing hour too!

How mature.
As a gay man I thought it was hilarious.
***** i care
That is funny
Matt Little I just bursted out laughing, OMG xD
I feel like this show never gets talked up these days as nostalgic.
The theme song was in my head all afternoon. I had to watch it again lol.
same here lol.
i dont think i ever watched this show but that song has been buried deep in my subconscious for like 15 years
I loved Pepper Ann growing up
Finally coming to Disney+ on September 8th.
ABOUT TIME!!!!
Finally a reason to buy Disney+
She's a rebel, she's a saint
Ola Los she holds my heart like a handgrenade?
+Mafon2 she screams in silence?
"Who's that girl? What's her name?
Is she cool?"
Is she lame? Is she cool?
Is she breakin’ every rule?
Remember the episode where she got together with Tony Soprano?
so much late 90's vintage....i miss shit like this
Keep her away from Tony Soprano.
Wishing you could sing one in a million like the singer...
I Making My Cover On This:)
@@LeighTheSunneGuardian That's nice, I might make a cover of the song as well.
I had a little girl once go through my line and said her name was Pepper. I immediately started singing this theme song in my head :D
You are amazing.
Such a dynamic character. I love the relationship she had with Tony soprano.
Takes me back to circa 1999/2000 watching this with my cousin Rachel. Aah to be in grade school again.
Loved how she would find something different under her desk at the end of the theme song, every new episode 😍 Gosh I miss the ABC + NBC Saturday morning line ups (kid, tween and teen nostalgia)
Fox too! Who didn’t love when X-Men used to come on-pajamas, cereal, blanket, bliss 😌🔥
I just watched the first 3 episodes. I'm glad I came across this show when I was watching Marvel's What if!

I still wonder if Pepper Ann and KND were in the same universe, I'm pretty sure they were made by the same people.
Tom Warburton made both, that would be cool if they were set in the same universe.
What is pepper ann is the decommissioned Francis!?
kitten kat Pepper Ann is Fanny, I love this theory!!!
fantasyfiction101 me too! but, she sure did lose her accent :/ lolol but i think it's plausible
TheoKabala89 I've never seen Pepper Ann but I was just thinking that it looks exactly like KND, lol.
I have never seen a single episode of this show, but this is the best theme song I’ve ever heard in my life
little did she know one day in 2022 she would witness a newtopian invasion of earth...
Emilia fart brought me here.
This 😍😍😍 love her lol
Yeah I thought her theme song sounded familiar lol
I just put together this theme song is Emilia Farts too. I knew it sounded familiar but wasn’t sure and came here to check my nostalgia if I was right or not
saaame
fart?
One of the best 90s cartoon theme songs, I love the random talking in-between and the "she's too cool for 7th grade" was always my favorite line for some reason.
I remembered at the end of every theme song she found something different and I actually remember this episode where she said “cool, a mood ring.” Ahh my childhood
Nowadays I realise that this was a really Grunge cartoon.
Not sure if anyone knows this but this song is sung by Kathleen Wilhoite. She is the actress that plays Liz on Gilmore Girls and is also the voice of Pepper Ann. You can really hear her raspy voice in this theme song. Never would have known that as a kid!
Ok...
Lol. I used to think being cool meant being older and in the 7th grade
Same here. Reality isn't all that it's cracked up to be.
8th grade in reality, is extremely similar to 7th grade. Pepper Ann will be very disappointed.
I used to same about being in the fourth grade during recess
3rd graders perspective of 7th graders: 2 cul 4 schul lets go sk8ing at the sk8 park m8
8th graders perspective of 7th graders: goo goo ga ga waaaah
the badass girl who snag this is officially awesome
Joshey dubs That was the chick who voiced Pepper Ann, Kathleen Wilhoite.
I used to watch this at my grandma's house when I was little, and I got so excited when it came on. I was born in '97, so the show is literally as old as me LOL but still one of my favorite shows as a kid. Man.. miss those days..
One of my favorites! Came out when I was in 7th grade
my favorite part is when she says ONE IN A MILLION
Oh my god! I used to watch this show all the time when I was little! Awesome theme song!!!
I hate being 30, bring me back.
THIS SONG HAS BEEN STUCK IN MY HEAD FOR 20 YEARS BUT IT HAS 6 COMMENTS. WHY
This show is beautiful and really resonates with me.
0:20 - "one in a mill-ION!" Love it.
One of the best Disney theme songs ever. And cartoons. I miss Pepper Ann so much.
Show had such a dark ending. Where a bunch of black guys came in to her school and shot her to death. It was crazy.
She’s was Tony’s one in a million.

i love that pepper anns voice actress sings the theme song ! I also wish they had more animation involving super hero pepper
EATIT41 she’s like in a MILLYUN!!!
There is a different show called doug, and it's the reason they made this
"Oooh, Five Bucks!"
That was always my favourtie for some reason!
Because back in the 90's, five bucks went a long way.
Ah, takes me back to Saturday mornings before my swimming lesson. Magical.
Instant flashback to my childhood!
I miss this show. I like how every episode theme song when she slips underneath her desk, she finds something different.
I loved this show when I was kid!!!! And I loved Pepper Ann's voice.
But he sucks
i like how every episode she found something different under her desk. once she found a toy poodle
The "one in a milLION!!" sounds like Joan Jett sings now that she's older.
Nostalgia like a mofo. I used to watch this back in my pre teen years.
This song is the greatest theme ever and the show was the best in it's time.
"Did someone take my lunch??"
LOL
I want to see this show remade, but intentionally as a 90s throwback. This show embodied the era so well
Man this song just randomly popped into my head the other day. So damn catchy.

I am literally only just now learning that wasn't her brother.
Pepper Ann is pretty much the definitive 90s cartoon, just based on design.
So crazy that she was dating Tony Saprano at the time
