Teen Girl Squad is a subcartoon series of the Homestar Runner animated cartoon series. It is a crudely drawn comic supposedly illustrated by the fictional Strong Bad. The series is characterized by a satirical presentation of high-school social hierarchy and relations, focusing on four archetypical stereotyped female characters. It also features a second-level of humor poking fun at its fictional creator, Strong Bad, principally by exposing his inability to focus on plot or development through the constant interference in each sketch by random (and often recurring) elements of totally bizarre and humorously violent phenomena (detailed in Non Teen Girl Squad Characters, below.) The aesthetic and format of the series intentionally mimics general patterns seen in in-classroom doodles created by bored students, possibly including those tendencies observed in children with Attention Deficit Disorder. The animation also resembles that of indie animator Don Hertzfeldt, whose comical stick figures are often prey to equally random plots. The animation of Teen Girl Squad, consistent with its scribbled presentation, is done extremely crudely in Flash Animation, adding yet another, more slapstick dimension to the series.
The feature began after a girl named Brittany emailed Strong Bad and requested that he draw her friends, Virginia, Joy, Kristen and Jennifer. The voices are done by Strong Bad in a strained falsetto. At the end of each episode, Strong Bad, who also covers narration, announces "It's over!" except for in issue #3 when he rather poorly sings to a random tune, "Teen Girl Squaaaaad! The Teenage Girls between the ages of thirteen and nineteen!" and issue#10 where Strong Bad begins to "first base" it with "The Ugly One" after drawing her as "The New Hotness." In this case, Strong Sad can be heard pointing out this fact to Strong Bad.
The characters
The characters are basic high school clichés: four friends who strive to be supah popular and gain the acceptance of boys.
- Cheerleader is the most popular member of the group. She wears her hair in pigtails and usually dons clothing labeled with phrases such as "Diva" and "Boys Please". We are led to believe that this popularity is just in her head, though, as she has very little luck getting football players to notice her. Furthermore, the other three girls seem to feel like Cheerleader has enslaved them, as shown by their cries of jubilation when Cheerleader is run down by a driver's-ed student in issue #9.
- So and So is second on the proverbial totem pole. She is academically inclined and very outgoing, although this does not translate into popularity. In fact, the only two guys who have noticed her are "Brett Bretterson", a boy she made up in first grade, and a jock, her relationship with whom ended tragically when a van with the sound effect "Children!" ran over her new beau. So and So is the only member of the squad to have been referred to by a real name; Cheerleader called her Kristen, one of the names Strong Bad was supposed to use for the characters, in the first episode. After that, she was just called So-and-So. She has a stepmom named Mrs. So-and-Soerson with an extensive, jogging suit-filled walk-in closet.
- What's Her Face is the least popular member and the pity friend of the group. The girls aren't subtle in telling her this. They have excluded her from an excursion to the mall, and left her at home while they went to the beach for spring break (their words: "We tried to call you, but we forgot."). Her most notable physical feature is that she dresses in baggy pants and has stringy hair, and that she had lice when she was in kindergarten with the other girls. In issue 9 it is revealed that she at one time dated "Science Fiction Gregg," a male character seemingly as unpopular as herself, until Cheerleader put a stop to it.
- The Ugly One dresses frumpily, with nondescript frills at the end of her dress. She also perms her hair and wears '60s-retro grandma glasses. We are led to believe that she has a problem with hygiene, and that her clothes make her look very unhip. She is ahead of What's Her Face in terms of popularity, but not by much. In the tenth issue, she is redrawn in color as "The Hotgly One," the complete opposite of her typical style character, for her celebration of her "sweet someteenth" birthday bash. Her father owns and runs a used and broken electronic store known as 'Manolios Ugly One's Lectro-Pawn.'
Non-Teen Girl Squad characters
- Arrow'd Guy shows up in every episode to do something drastic to at least one member of the Teen Girl Squad. His talents are many; so far he has been an archer by firing arrows out of his mouth (hence his name), a "Children!" truck driver, a Chinese restaurant worker, a CEREBELLUM-mech operator, a boat captain, a contest judge, a giant, a woman and a critical playgoer. He also returned for "Arrow'd II" where he was about to propose to The Ugly One before being replaced by Strong Bad. He also appears as 404'd Guy when Homestar Runner browsers achieve a 404 Error.
- Thomas is a stereotypical Grey alien, who arrived at the Teen Girl Squad's area from what is believed to be "foreign lands" around Pre-K. He hasn't done much in the series, but he can be quite painful with a bat and can pull off impressive half-pipe stunts on a skateboard. What's Her Face had a crush on him when he first came, and still does.
- Tompkins is a student who attends school with the Teen Girl Squad. In pre-kindergarten, he and the girls had an antagonistic relationship. So and So develops a crush on him for his rebellious nature and decides to ask him out after breaking up with Brett Bretterson. However, it seems he would rather play Super Mario on his Game Boy.
- Mrs. Commanderson is the Teen Girl Squad's pre-kindergarten teacher. She can also be found as what appears to be a secret member of the Cheat Commandos Team. She resembles an Archaeopteryx.
- Learner's Permit Girl is an older girl what has her learner's permit. Cheerleader intends to take the squad driving with her in issue #9, but she runs her over before she has a chance, effectively "driver's ed...deading" her. At the end of the issue, she gave Strong Bad a ride to Babbage's.
- Mr. Pitters is an elderly man who wants to be a teen girl. The Teen Girl Squad supposedly spent their summers hanging out next to him until Cheerleader met a girl with a learner's permit, despite the fact that What's Her Face had a driver's license for a year prior to then. Two vultures claimed he "ain't no teen girl", and subsequently ate him.
- Science Fiction Greg is What's Her Face's apparent ex-boyfriend. He is extremely nerdy and Cheerleader forced them to stop dating. Apparently he tends to copy D&D Greg.
- Manolios Ugly One is The Ugly One's father - a large slob-like man who owns an electronics store, Manolios Ugly One's Lectro-Pawn, which sells items of dubious quality such as broken VCRs and smashed tapes.
- Brainkrieg is a seemingly nu-metal styled band based out of the Teen Girl Squad's high school. Strong Bad mentions them with disdain claiming they got "last place", possibly due to their using ineffective d-e words like "dentist" and "deli-style". Cheerleader claims to be a fan.
- D n' D Greg is similar to Science Fiction Greg, only he is more renowned for his Dungeons and Dragons skills. Apparently, he hates it when Science Fiction Greg acts like a D&D expert.
The Episodes
As of October 11, 2005, there have been ten episodes of Teen Girl Squad.
Issue #1 - TEE GEE ESS!!
The issues starts with titles. The following words run next to each character's picture.
- Cheerleader: Cheer!
- So and So: Fashion Sense!
- Whats Her Face: Unpopular!
- The Ugly One: Hygiene?
These titles reappear with different words in future issues.
The issue opens with Cheerleader telling the group that they should get ready to "look so good!" After the others agree, they all set off on their mission. Out of nowhere, So and So gets "voiped" by a robot's beam.
Cheerleader informs So and So that [Kristen] looks burnt, or dead. As they walk off, Whats Her Face says in a light tone, "I miss Kristen...a?"
The Ugly One announces, "I have a crush on every boy!" Just as she does that, The Arrow'd guy shoots arrows out of his mouth; they all hit The Ugly One. A monster then punts Whats Her Face far away.
At the end of the comic, Cheerleader is standing on top of the site where the three girls are buried. She announces, "I look so good!"
Easter egg: Click Whats Her Face's grave for a short scene with Strong Bad and Cheerleader.
Issue #2 - Teen Grrrl Squad!!
Introduction:
Cheerleader: Growth spurt!
So and So: School Spirit!
Whats Her Face: Pity Friend!
The Ugly one: Psoriasis!
The issue opens with Cheerleader asking the girls how they're looking. After the others respond with their typical "So good!" (Whats Her Face says "Okay!......I mean So Good!", she shows them a fashion magazine with hot tips (Title: Le Gurl), and suggests that they get started.
The girls run into a jock, who assumes that they must be girls. Whats Her Face believes she might have a chance with him, until Thomas the alien bashes her legs open with a baseball bat (bat-bat-bat-bat-bat-bat-BAT!). The jock suggests that he and So and So should date, and she agrees. A vulture and a bat swoop in to grasp Cheerleader and The Ugly One.
So and So's date ends abruptly when The Arrow'd guy drives a van into the jock with the sound effect "Children!!" So and So is shocked, and even more so when the vultures drop the two remaining girls back to earth. "Where were you guys?" she asked. The girls responded with, "We got jealous." So and So announces that they should go get yogurt! Whats Her Face returns with bloody knees. While enjoying their yogurt, The Ugly One announces that she got jimmies on her yogurt.
Easter egg: None.
Issue #3 - TGS Numba 3
Introduction:
Cheerleader: Boy Crazy!
So and So: Math Crazy!
Whats Her Face: Whatev!
The Ugly One!: ACTUALLY CRAZY!
Cheerleader starts by saying "Listen, gals. If we want to look....". Anticipating what will be said next, the girls respond with the next two words Cheerleader was going to say: "SO GOO-" But before they get the 'd' out, Cheerleader blurts out that "We have to go get some summer fashions!" So and So is ecstatic, she says she is Sooo there. Cheerleader decides then that So and So, The Ugly One, and herself, will be going to the mall, but tells Whats Her Face to go to the thrift store, or junkyard. As the trio and and Whats Her Face split up to go to their separate destinations, the sun seen in the sky, suddenly turns into a spinning buzzsaw, killing some nearby birds.
The girls decide to stop at a vendor to get some Pan-Asian Cuisine, and stop at an oddly named Chinese Food stand: 3 spring rolls. Once there, they ironically ordered "3 spring rolls", as inscribed on said sign. However they got MSG'D (well the ugly one at least...)
Issue #4 - TGS Tissue 4
Introduction:
Cheerleader: Cool Parents!
So and So: Student Council!
Whats Her Face: Shop Lifting?
The Ugly One: Prepaid Lunch!
Cheerleader is upset that school is happening again this year. The other girls, whose minds seem to be somewhere else at the time, respond with the traditional "So Good!". Cheerleader informs them that they are "wack." "Wiggedy Wack?" The Ugly One wonders, but Cheerleader says no, just regular type.
So and So disagrees. She sat next to Brett Bretterson in math and she's in love. Cheerleader informs her that she made up Brett Bretterson in first grade; he's not real.
So and So strikes up a conversation with the invisible Brett, "Weirding Out" Whats Her Face. So and So leaves with "Brett", ostensibly to go to lunch. On the way, she falls in the "Fighting Growlbacks Bottomless Spirit Pit". As she falls, she yells, " Ahhhhh!! Go growlbacks!"
As the 3 look on as So-and-So falls, the Ugly One states that when you fall in a bottomless pit, you die of starvation. Cheerleader distracts everyone by remarking that the quarterback is by his locker, and she is going to see if he has any plans for dating her. She then asks if her panties were showing. The Ugly one replies to her with " Yes, Ma'am". She likes The Ugly One's response, saying "Grood", and corrects herself by saying "I mean GOOD.... and great....great and good." She walks off, anxious to show quarterback. The Ugly One laughs, "Tee hee." Whats Her Face says, "We're cool." A sack of potatoes and a weight flatten them, respectively, as sound effects and writing on said weight and sack of potatoes indicate that "NO, YOU'RE NOT!"
Cheerleader asks the quarterback, "How's about you and me?" The dumb quarterback responds with, "How's about you get some brains?" The Arrow'd guy attacks Cheerleader with a massive mechanized brain with huge lips, causing her to get "Cerebellum'd!"
Back at the spirit pit, So and So yells, "Hello.....A little help here.......Maybe some Lunchables....or a juice box?" Then, while she says this, apparently "Brett" is telling her that he loves her, because she responds as if he did say it, by saying "I love you too, Brett". Easter Eggs: Click on the "O" in "Its Over!" to see What's Her Face and The Ugly One talking to each other, while they are squished. Also, click on the "!" in "Its Over!" to see So and So yelling for more food and homework assignments.
Issue #5 - Spring Type Break
Introduction: Cheerleader: Two Piece!
So and So: One Piece!
What's Her Face: Same Clothes!
The Ugly One: Three Piece?!!
The episode begins with Whats Her Face at her mailbox, finding that she's gotten a postcard. It's from the other girls, who have gone to the beach without her. They promise to send her a shell, or some sand, if they remember. She remarks that the other side has birds on it. Her mailbox promptly eats the card.
At the beach, Cheerleader suggests that they put their stuff down by "them olda boys." Cut to a pair of college guys, complete with a cooler filled with "college drinks". One college boy comments that he misses video games, the other mentions that he misses his mom. The Ugly One is too nervous; she sticks her head in the sand. A bird perches on her midriff and she informs us that her lungs are filling with sand and cigarette butts.
Cheerleader asks the boys if their spot on the beach is taken. She says they're in college, while at the same time, So and So says they're in eighth grade! The boys laugh, and an angry Cheerleader punts So and So away.
Cheerleader explains away So and So as her little sister. The spiky-haired college guy says that the two look the same age. An angry Cheerleader explodes with "I'M FIVE YEARS OLDER AND IN COLLEGE!!!" then has her torso ripped from the rest of her body when The Arrow'd guy runs into her with his boat, the S.S. Inevitable in a tragic "sailing mishap!".
The Ugly One hopes nobody cool or famous is staring at her, which Henry Rollins, George Washington, and Abraham Lincoln are doing. So and So walks in and asks the trio to tandem parasail with her. To which they exclam "woot".
Strong Bad announces "it's almost over!"
At the skate park, Whats Her Face asks Thomas to do an indy nosebone. As he does so, So and So and the celebrities glide by on a parasail. Thomas performs one last stunt, the "Late 360' Shove It to Boneless....'D" before Strong Bad announces that "now it's over!"
Easter Egg: Clicking the 'o' in 'now' results in a bonus scene, wherein the two college guys repeat 'I miss video games' and 'I miss my mom' in time to the Teen Girl Squad background music.
Issue #6 - Secret Decemberween Gift Exchange!!
Introduction: Cheerleader: Wants a Pony
So and So: Wants a Savings Bond
Whats Her Face: Wants a New Stepdad
The Ugly One: Wants to be Cheerleader
Cheerleader wants her 'Spanish galleons' to listen up so that they can draw names for the 'secret Decemberween gift exchange'. Cheerleader has put their names into a lion's mouth and says that Whats Her Face can choose first. Whats Her Face is hesitant, and so Cheerleader says she won't get any.
The Ugly One, desperate for presents, leaps into the lion's mouth. She is "TWO'D" by the judges. So and So is up next, so she decides what to do by using her cool math skills. She dives into the lion with a triple salchow.
Cheerleader announces that the "Last one in is a rotten friend," and leaps into the lion's mouth with a "DOUBLE DOUBLE WHIPLESS MOCCHACHINO HALFCAF," and receives "3 NOSES?" from the judges.
A Hawaiian singer announces in song the 'Wave o' Babies', which slides in from the right of the screen, threatening to assail Whats Her Face, as she has not entered the lion's mouth due to her being vegan. The next scene moves inside the lion.
The girls think that the lion's innards are looking "So good!". So and So gives Cheerleader a present - a gift card for fashion. The Ugly One gives Cheerleader a half-digested gazelle carcass, and the comic ends.
Easter Egg: Click on the o in "it's over!" to see a scene where a game of Marco Polo is taking place. Cheerleader calls Whats Her Face a "FISH OUT OF WATER!!" because she's not inside the lion.
Issue #7 - Diaper School Grads!
Image:Tompkins made a swear.png
Introduction:
Cheerleader: Fattycakes!
So and So: Polite and Boring!
Whats Her Face: Lice and More!
The Ugly One: Boy or Girl?
And: Tompkins
This issue opens with the squad in pre-kindergarten, and is drawn on wide ruled practice paper. So and So and The Ugly One are sitting across from each other, playing pattycake, with the words making fun of Tompkins.
Then they start to count up from 'one inch' back and forth until they pass 'four inch'; The Ugly One states that's as high as she can count. Whats Her Face announces that she can count to G! Unfazed, Cheerleader approaches and says that she can count all the way to purple... backwards.
Tompkins arrives, and being the young boy he is, gives the girls first choice of who wants to be "hogtied, and pushed down into some snakewater." "Tompkins, how do you be so short?" counters The Ugly One. Tompkins comes back with "Heck, I'm taller than you." The girls yell out to their teacher, "TOMPKINS MADE A SWEAR!!!" and Tompkins runs off crying. Tompkins is attacked by several poorly-defined threats in the form of a monster hand in a granny hat (AGGH!! GRAGHGH!!!) shown before Strong Bad cuts to a dismembered Tompkins. Strong Bad says "and... he died somehow..."
Image:Mrs. Commanderson.png Cheerleader decides now's the time to show off her "very own chocolate bar!!" - which happens to be decorated with dirt, hair, an ant and a fly. The other girls are disgusted by Cheerleader's dirty chocolate bar, but Cheerleader counters with "Yeah? Well my house has a hundred bafrooms!!" "You mean your parent's house?" says So-and-so. "You mean 2 bafrooms?" says The Ugly One. Going into a tantrum, Cheerleader yells out, "NO! IT'S MINE! IT'S A HUNDRED! SHUT IT OFF!!" A fat guy in a bathing suit then slides down the kiddie slide behind Cheerleader, and squishes her. ("Squished.")
A school bell named 'Bill Bellamy' rings out and the remaining kids squeal "NAPTIME!" A bird-like creature appears in the background. The bird creature takes off carrying Whats Her Face, So and So, and The Ugly One. The first two are sound asleep, and The Ugly One thanks Mrs. Commanderson. The bird creature replies with a resounding "EERRAAAK!!," causing Whats Her Face to fall.
The music and paper background change back to normal, and the four girls are standing around looking at a book of old photos. All of them remark out loud: "Look at how much we've grown!" The scene pans out to show they're falling through the air. It then pans out again to show they're falling into the open mouth of The Arrow'd Guy. Cue Strong Bad yelling that "IT'S OVER!!!"
Easter Eggs: The 'O' and the '!': the origin of Whats-Her-Face's crush on Thomas, and Mrs. Commanderson's theme song, respectively.
Issue #8 - Soopa Groop
Introduction: Cheerleader: Top 40 Hits!
So and So: Hooked on Classics!
Whats Her Face: College Radio!
The Ugly One: Listens to Pinebark!
The eighth Teen Girl Squad begins with the girls sitting in class. The intercom comes on to announce that, aside from lunch consisting of a 'breadtangle' of pizza, there will be a "battle of the bands" on Friday, and that Tompkins needs to go to the principal's office. After Whats Her Face comments that pizza should be triangular, and So and So comments about Tompkins, the girls decide to form a band so that they can get boys. Sticking Whats Her Face on bass, they set off to So and So's stepmom's closet to practice.
So and So wants the band to be named "Smartly Pretty", spelled "(S)mar+<math>\mathcal s</math>y PrΣ(π)y", but Cheerleader argues that they shall call themselves "Kissyboots". The girls arrive and find that So and So's stepmom is actually The Arrow'd guy with bad make-up, questionable fashion taste, and a pearl necklace, and that she owns a million of those jogging suits. They begin practicing their song, but during an extended drum solo (in which she plays on drums named Mr. Drummond), The Ugly One is "floor tommed!", "step-mommed!" and then... "Pom-Pom'd?"
At the battle of the bands, Kissyboots is up, but So and So is missing. The scene cuts to her dressing room where she's going for a "gloomy keyboardist look", complete with Strong Sad shirt. Some goblins arrive and ask for her autograph, but she is crushed by a giant 12-sided polyhedral die (actually a 20-sided die) before she can pick up the pen.
The show must go on, and Cheerleader and Whats Her Face play without her. Whats Her Face comments that "her bass feels seaworthy" after it spontaneously transforms into a shark, which eats her top half. "My most of me!" she exclaims. Cheerleader finishes out the issue with a musical "it's over!" song. She ends with "everybody died 'cept me", which is quickly shown to be false with a "Chomp!" noise, and cheerleader promptly exclaiming, "Aw, CRAP!"
Easter Eggs:
'o': Pizza in various un-triangular shapes. '!': Tompkins' visit to Prinicpal (sic) Strong Bad.
Issue #9 - Summatime Style!
Introduction: Cheerleader: Backyard Pool!
So and So: Library!
Whats Her Face: 24 Hour Diner!
The Ugly One: Parking Deck?
In this episode, Cheerleader decides that this summer will be different--one, they won't be hanging out next to Mr. Pitters, who stays despite this; and two, she's befriended an older girl who has her learner's permit! What's Her Face says that she's had her license for a year, and Cheerleader tells her to "stop saying words". The older girl then drives up, and with a cry of "ten o'clock and two o'clock!" she winds up running Cheerleader over. So and So notices that Cheerleader is dead. The girls scream, "We're free!", while Mr. Pitters cries, "We're ointment!" The Ugly One announces that the tyranny is over.
So and So is happy that she can now overachieve like a bandit, Whats Her Face decides to date Science-Fiction Greg again, The Ugly One stops showering, and Mr. Pitters becomes a teen girl. He then gets eaten by vultures.
Strong Bad sings a song about what happens to the "Best Friends Squad", as they are now called. The Ugly One carves BFF in a tree (which stands for Baow Fom Froosh, when the tree crashes on her), So and So puts on a play with a living Porta-John, but gets bad reviews and both are killed by the arrow'd guy, Whats Her Face eats a heaping bowl of staple sauce, obviously killing her, and Strong Bad and the older girl go to Babbage's. Strong Bad is disappointed that there are no TurboGrafx games.
We discover that all of the girls (and Mr. Pitters) are dead. Cheerleader tells the other girls to get ready to be "SO DEAD". Mr. Pitters announces that he looks so good.
Easter eggs: The 'o' leads to a short scene with Sci-Fi Greg spouting humorous Dungeons and Dragons lingo, while the '!' shows one of So and So's hinted-at exploits during the "Best Friends Squad" period.
Issue #10 - Tenthennial Extravaganza
Cheerleader: Groovy grapefruit pink
So and So: Viscious violent violet
Whats Her Face: Radacious bodadical razzberry blue!
The Ugly One: Gnarly nursing home green
In this episode, presented in twenty-four great-smelling colours (There are actualy 43 colors), the girls prepare to eat no food, until The Ugly One comes up with a tray of corn. She announces "Its corn and corn alone day!" A tiny samurai jumps out of the corn and yells "Corn is no place for a mighty warrior!" Then The Ugly One announces that it is her sweet someteenth birthday party that night. The other girls make up excuses, but then The Ugly One explains it is a b/grl (boy/girl) prty. The girls immediately drop their excuses, and get ready to look so good.
An amazing 3D effect ensues. Strong Bad requests to see it again, and after viewing again the effect renders Whats Her Face spinning for the remainder of the episode. She appears not to notice, yelling "Wheeeee!"
At the party, Cheerleader is caber tossed by a Scotsman, and Whats Her Face is "lathe'd" by the tiny (yet still mighty) warrior whilst trying to eat corn chips. So and So approaches Tompkins and explains that she has broken up with her imaginary boyfriend Brett Bretterson. However, he refuses because he "has Bowser on the ropes" and So and So gets p0wned by a Koopa Shell.
Then, The Ugly One's dad (Manolios Ugly One) presents his daughter to the party - The Ugly One, who appears with a new hairstyle in a red dress. Strong Bad suddenly realises he has drawn this "new hotness" and appears in a new scene, asking The Ugly One out.
The episode ends with a scene at Strong Bad's desk, as he is making-out with the paper he has drawn on, with Strong Mad, Strong Sad and The Cheat looking on. Strong Sad asks Strong Bad "Are you first basing it with that piece of loose leaf?"
This episode has much smoother animation than anything else on Homestar Runner due to the higher frame rates needed to render the 3D effect scene.

Image:Teen Girl Squad - Buisness.png
Strong Bad E-mail #104 (Theme Park): Strong Bad starts to read the e-mail as Cheerleader, but quickly clears his throat. When he says the word buisness click on it to bring up a 'cut' TGS panel. The scene shows an angry Cheerleader telling off a sad The Ugly One, who says: "The Ugly One, why you always gotta be all up in my bweez-NASS?" (The e-mailer had misspelled "business" as "buisness")
Strong Bad E-mail #118 (Virus): When the entire site goes haywire, the King of Town is transported into TGS issue '#3.14159265 and the rest' (effectively issue #π, or at least an approximation) where The Ugly One 's mouth becomes huge and disproportioned, and she stops talking through speech bubbles. She states, "I can do it! I can do it nine times!" Then her arm grows and she slaps the King of Town repeatedly, then goes to a 'Loading...' screen, then to the Windows 'It's now safe to shut down your computer' screen. A similar event occurs in The Cheat cartoon, in which Strong Bad kicks Homestar in the face nine times.
