* In several Circles the gang is passing around a whipped cream can. This isn't for the inevitable munchies that pot induces (although it helps), they're doing whippets with the nitrous oxide.

* Red was always on Eric for his ''Star Wars'' toys and making references to the movie. This is just Red being Red... Until you realize Kurtwood Smith was in a ''Franchise/StarTrek'' movie before this show. He's a [[FandomRivalry Trekkie picking on a Warsie]]!
** Taken even further since he was on ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'' for a two-part episode.

* In "Career Day", Dr. Ashley is shown to be ridiculously incompetent at his job without the help of the nurses: he forgets to give them a blood sample to take to the lab, he almost reads a patient the wrong test results, and he is about to prescribe penicillin for a patient that is ''fatally allergic'' to it. While Kitty's corrections of his errors are PlayedForLaughs, it is horrifying to think about what may be going on at that hospital on a regular basis, especially since Dr. Ashley is shown to be rather sexist and condescending towards the female nursing staff and certainly doesn't ask for their help or run things by them on his own.

* When Leo disappears with Kelso's baby, Kelso checks places like under the kitchen table and in the cupboards. This might seem like his usual stupidity, until you realize it wouldn't be out of character for Leo to put a baby in a cupboard.

* The episode "It's a Wonderful Life" has an alternate reality in which Eric and Donna never had that first kiss, and instead, Hyde starts dating Donna, and eventually marries her. The horror comes when you realize that during these years, Hyde and Eric drift further and further apart, which would have to mean that Hyde never moved in with the Formans when his mom left (it would be virtually impossible to forget about someone when you live with them). Also Donna explains at their high school reunion that Hyde is away a lot due to prison. Apparently, without the positive influence of the Formans, Hyde's criminal behavior got worse. Either he grew up in a foster home or joined a gang in this reality, or something equally as bad. Thank God that this episode was [[spoiler: AllJustADream.]]

* Maybe not brilliant, but a certain Fridge Logic about the dates as shown at the end of each episode: the plate stickers on a car don't denote what year it actually is, but what year the plate expires. This can be up to two years beyond the date of purchase.

One might wonder why Eric would find Casey Kelso calling him "Foreplay" objectionable...that is, until one realizes Casey is implying that Eric merely warmed Donna up for him.
