Line 24:
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: Bob.
* [[Cool Old Lady]]: Nancy full stop.
* [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: Lucinda, Dusty, Craig.
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Luke as one for Reid, for example.
* [[Dr. Jerk]]: Reid does care deeply for his patients, but anyone who watched the scene where he was going on about how awesome a woman having a rare something was because he got to show his genius by performing a extremely experimental procedure, only blithely acknowledging that his failure would be worse for her (as in, she would either be a vegetable or dead) than it would be for him can be forgiven for thinking otherwise.
* [[Die for Our Ship]]: The Noah/Luke/Reid love triangle. Literally.
* [[Dysfunction Junction]]
Line 32:
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Katie was in on Vienna's plan to trap Henry into marrying her (Vienna). She drew the line at faking a miscarriage.
* [[Fan Sequel]]: [http://www.youtube.com/user/bunchoflemons#grid/user/0598661CE1F4637E The Reid Oliver Cartoon Saga]
** Which the actor playing Reid is aware of and has said he enjoys.
* [[Gay Aesop]]: Subverted in that the person who learned the aesop was the on who left the show as opposed to the gay person.
* [[Genre Savvy]]: Occasionally characters do seem to be aware they're in a bizarre, abnormal soap world, but that doesn't seem to stop the plot from getting the better of them.
Line 43:
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Reid.
* [[Karma Houdini]]: Craig.
* [[Kissing Discretion Shot]]: Mostly done concerning Luke and Noah.
* [[Killed Off for Real]]: Usually only happens when the actor died.
* [[Littlest Cancer Patient]]
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]
* [[Long Runner]]: It was on the air for 54 years.
* [[Love Dodecahedron]]
Line 53:
* [[Love Makes You Evil]]
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: One of Reid's best contributions to the show.
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Lucinda
* [[Mama Bear]]: Lucinda, although she seems to handle things better when her grandchildren are involved rather than her children; many argue that Lily being so screwed up is due to Lucinda herself.
* [[Married to the Job]]
* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: Paul and Henry. Made all the more hilarious by the fact that they were in a lingerie store.
* [[Monochrome Casting]]: After Bonnie left the cast was all white.
* [[Morality Pet]]: Luke is the Morality Pet for Reid in a MAJOR way
Line 77:
* [[Soap Opera]]
* [[Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome]]
* [[
* [[Stalker with a Crush]]: Craig toward Carly,
* [[Tangled Family Tree]]: Even by soap opera standards, the Snyder family is something to behold. One example: [[Super Couple]] Holden and Lily also uncle and niece because Lily is the daughter of Holden's adopted sister Iva, who was raped by an adopted Snyder cousin who later married Holden's bio sister Meg. Keep in mind there are six Snyder siblings.
* [[The Character Died with Him]]: Chris Hughes(Sr.), Nancy Hughes, Hal Munson.
