Line 29:
* [[Art Evolution]]: The first few episodes' art and animation are just that tiniest bit more similar to ''[[Superjail (Animation)|Superjail]]'' than later episodes.
* [[Baby Talk]]: Callie did this when Mark had to take care of a demon baby.
* [[Back -Alley Doctor]]: Croatian Man in "Any Given Workday".
* [[Bastard Boyfriend]]: Inverted. Mark is a pretty decent guy while Callie is [[Black Comedy Rape|seriously abusive]]. Kinda inevitable given that she's literally the spawn of [[Satan]]. She's working on not being like that though.
** Played straight with his first girlfriend, who he dumped in the hospital due to the fact she was allergic to his favorite food. And she was in the hospital simply because she forced herself to eat said egg for him.
Line 73:
** The same Limo driver who had his arms ripped off turned up again in The Manbirds. And it looks like he might hold a grudge.
** Rammstein's "Amerika" played at the end of the pilot episode.
* [[Corrupt the Cutie]]: Seems to be the rationale regarding Callie's [[Single -Target Sexuality]] with Mark.
{{quote| '''Callie:''' Oh Mark... so innocent. It just makes me want to ''*demonically*'' '''corrupt your soul and drag it through the bowels of Hell!'''}}
** Though, if anything, Mark is the one influencing Callie to be a better person for his sake.
Line 154:
* [[Godiva Hair]]: Callie temporarily gets this after her PMS in "Treegasm".
* [[Gonna Need More Trope]]: Twayne, faced with having to have public sex with Lilith (Callie's sister), looks at her fully demonic form and utters "I think I'm gonna need a bigger Mating Bone" while said bone goes limp. Fluffers are promptly called in.
* [[Gross -Out Show]]: Plenty of blood, guts, and other sources of [[Nausea Fuel]] to go around.
* [[Head-Tiltingly Kinky]] - Callie's declaration that she has "at least five holes that need filling" in "Treegasm"... even counting her three-hole, that only adds up to four!
** We know demon women give birth out the top of their skulls. So counting from the top, that's [[Squick|one]], two, three-hole, four... and five.
** Also, the aforementioned [[Destructo-Nookie]].
* [[Heroic BSOD]]: Mark has a minor one in "Kong of Queens" when he discovers that his very idealism could lead to [[The End of the World As We Know It|The End of Days]].
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Natasha Leggero, the voice of Callie, was a 2010 ''Last Comic Standing'' judge, while Randall's VA Kurt Metzger was a contestant (and even won best joke of the season). Both also later ended up on Comedy Central's 2010 Hot List.
** After her sex change in "Mark Loves Dick", Callie's voice changes into [[Archer|H. Jon Benjamin.]]
* [[Hidden Depths]]
Line 173:
* [[Hypno Trinket]]: The ring of powers that Mark finds in Leonord's desk. Along with giving Mark [[Compelling Voice]] powers, it also causes Mark to begin to act like a stereotypical medieval ages knight, and fall in love with the [[The Grotesque|Grotesque]] form of Leonard's arranged wife.
* [[I Have a Family]]: Spoofed when Randall joins a zombie cult, and the initiation requires him to kill a human. The intended victim begs for mercy, claiming to have a wife and ''mistress''.
* [[IllI'll Take Two Beers, Too!]]: In "Trolling for Terror", Leonard pours himself and a troll he's coaching one shot each but angrily snatches and drinks the troll's.
* [[I Love the Dead]]: Inversion in Randall's squicktacular fantasies of ''eating'' Mark, as well as the fact that he is, technically speaking, a corpse who bangs [[Anything That Moves]].
** And judging from the bizarre masturbation implements he keeps taking to Mark's room when he's at work, many things that don't move as well.
Line 207:
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: The inevitable Judge Judy clone for the courtroom scenes.
** Also "Lady Hoo-Ha".
* [[No Periods, Period]]: Averted. Not just by Callie's "painful mortal shedding", but also one scene in Randall and Mark's kitchen has a calendar with her actual period marked out on it. It runs for two weeks...
* [[Noodle Incident]]: In the finale Leonard's hologram form visits Mark to notify him of his new jobs: Fish Gutter, Knife-Wielding Spray Paint Addict, and an [[Apocalypse Now|overweight Vietnamese demigod]], with no explanation to how he got into those positions.
{{quote| '''Leonard:''' Yea... I found out that I really need structure.}}
Line 254:
** For Mark, eggs. [[Bastard Boyfriend|Very serious]].
** Birthdays, for the entire Department of Integration staff. If the birthday department's budget is cut below 67% the Integration Treaty falls to pieces.
* [[Shout -Out]]
** The Zombiology building from Episode 8 is clearly the main building at [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_Institute:Pratt Institute|Pratt Institute]], due to a lot of the show's interns going there.
** Brian Peppers briefly shows up in episode 9 to kidnap one of the Leonard clones.
** Clark Dungaree is the third person to go by that alias, the first one [[Legacy Character|having retired fifteen years ago,]] [[The Princess Bride (Film)|and is now living like a king in Patagonia.]]
Line 298:
** Apparently, Van Helsing wrote a book entitled "Mein Vampf", an obvious reference to Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf".
* [[Vetinari Job Security]]: As useless and extraneous as Twayne may appear to be at the DOI, his absence from his post causes Mark to bring the whole of New York to the brink of nuclear annihilation on top of a full-scale interspecies civil war. Twayne fixes the whole mess in five minutes with a birthday cake.
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?]]: In "Wet Hot Demonic Summer", we see that many wizards have normal jobs and powers relating to them. For example, the Wizard of Air is an air-traffic controller but also gets to fly around on broomsticks. Leonard is the Wizard of Social Services, and his power is... being a lazy alcoholic bureaucrat. His apprentice Lionel is not keen on this.
* [[Wide Eyed Idealist]]: Mark.
* [[Work Com]]: Technically it is, but it's a really weird one.
