* DisappearedDad: Brick mentions his dad a lot in the past tense either indicating his dad is away or is dead. Turns out later in the episode his dad is alive and well but is a total wimp. However, turns out that ''wasn't'' his dad but his stepdad and his real one is off building a skyscraper.



* NiceCharacterMeanActor: Rodeo Rita is a very nice person when she plays the role in front of kids. However, when she is not, she's one of the biggest jerks of the show.

!!Cougar Ron
* Battlecry: Cougar Ron, before fighting an animal, lets out a roar that is the sound of a cougar.
* BlackComedyAnimalCruelty: Cougar Ron makes a living by beating the tar out of animals. However, this is later subverted as the animals aren't even real and are computer generated.
* Expy: Ron is definitely an expy of Steve Irwin, The Crocodile Hunyrt.
* NiceCharacterMeanActor: This is a bit complicated. Cougar Ron has no problem assaulting (fake) animals but Wayne says he only does it to animals that are "really asking for it." The fact he doesn't actually hurt real animals and has a bunch of fans does fit into the "nice character" part. The "Mean Character" part comes from how he treated Wayne during the episode.

* FriendToAllLivingThings: A bit subverted here. Thanks to Dirty Joe's [[ThePigPen disposition]], animals all alike are attracted to him by the way he smells. However, Joe himself doesn't appear to like animals considering he swatted away a dog that was sniffing him and fled as soon a heard of animals was going after him.

* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Brick seemed really touched that Wayne wanted to be his friend. However, this most likely meant that Brick could find someone to bully on a daily basis which he does.

* ADayInTheLimelight: Any episode that deals with the rodeo or has a focus on it, expect Neville to be the main focus.

* CoolOldGuy: Joe isn't that old but he's definitely one of the oldest characters in the series and he is definitely a pretty nice guy. When he temporary lived with the Cramps, he didn't want to help himself to their food and instead asked Wayne to get something for him. He was also willing to take a bath since he doesn't mind trying anything new. Also, he is one of few people that treat Wayne well and Wayne returns the favor.
