* ShotInTheAss: One guy suffers from a 12 gauge shotgun shot to the ass and walks into an automated clinic and attempts to type his symptoms on the keyboard interface of an AutoDoc. Naturally he keeps mistyping. It's [[BlackComedy funnier]] than it sounds.

* RagsToRiches: {{Exaggerated}} and PlayedForLaughs in one sketch where a guy wants to buy the Montréal's Canadian. He became rich by running a store that sells sewing machine spare parts in some ass end of nowhere town in Québec, but he also had a sideline making educational websites ("educational" here referring to learning how to [[TheInternetIsForPorn better suck dick]]).

* HornyVikings: A furniture shop received a complaint from a customer that he bought a king-sized bed [[note]]In French it's called a "lit king"[[/note]] but he keeps hitting his [[GroinAttack balls]] on the horn helmet. It turns out the shop accidently sold him a Viking and note a "lit king".

* SelfDeprecation: One sketch features a "has-been" singer who makes lame and repetitive songs, we get to hear them and they're basically remixed versions of ''Assis-sur mon tracteur'', a song Pérusse made for the 6th ''Album du Peuple''.

** In the Columbo segment, when trying to pass his neightboor as insane, one of the murderers tell Columbo she once saw "a dislocated puppet moving around making random threats". Columbo answers that it's true the President of the United States does show up a lot on TV lately.

** One of the sketches involves a guy postuling to join an insane asylum. As he discusses with the head of said Asyleum, and mentions he met someone who was saying "I am not crazy, I'm Patrick Bruel!". The head answers him half of what he said was true- he was indeed Patrick Bruel (bashing Patrick Bruel is a Pérusse running gag).

* AuthorAppeal: Pérusse puts in a lots of references to things he like in his sketches, like hockey, the music industry, ''Franchise/StarTrek'', the Beatles, the Rolling Stones...

* GreasySpoon: Described in graphic detail in the song ''Snack Bar Chez Raymond'',

* LongRunner: Started in 1990, and François Pérusse is still producing content in 2018.

** In another Régis Labeaume (mayor of Québec City) manages to somehow divine his hiding spot, and talks him into performing in Québec City with Paul [=McCartney=].

* {{Corpsing}}: A common source of humor. Out-of-universe, Pérusse mentioned he had a hard time finishing a sketch involving him singing [[HollywoodToneDeaf horrible gibberish]], before it's revealed that this is Music/{{Rihanna's}} [[TakeThat normal singing voice]] before AutoTune kicks in because he couldn't stop laughing.

** Captain Kirk suffers a TeleporterAccident in a ''Franchise/StarTrek'' parody. He's apparently been inverted and he can only mumbles, but [=McCoy=] advises him not too out of fear he'll damage his boots trying to speak. Spock jokes that he's not Captain Kirk anymore but Kirkptain Ki.

* ArtificialLimbs: One guy who got his legs [[AnArmAndALeg bitten off]] by a literal MamaBear asks General Electric to make him prosthetic limbs. Since he only has 1000$ to spare the only thing he can buy is two refrigerators, so they ''graft them to him''. Right after that the guy falls down a flight of stairs and fractures his two crispers drawers.

* BearsAreBadNews: A TV show host interviews a guy who had his legs bitten off by a MamaBear after [[TooDumbToLive he tried to wipe her cub with a]] [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext paper towel]].

* BloodOnTheDebateFloor: While there's no physical violence, the sketches set in the [[UsefulNotes/CanadianPolitics Canadian parliament]] or the Québec parliament always feature [=MPs=] yelling or insulting each other.

** One episode of a talk show features the story of a woman who suffered various infortunate accidents and eventually had her nervous system amputated, and even her ''intuition'' had to be amputated at some point.

-->'''Guy in the crowd''': That could be arranged too.

** "Rénovons avec Gaetan", a renovation show, often showcase talking tools as a RunningGag, like a beam detector or a talking saw (which screams "yumyumyum cherry wood that's so good yumyum" when they make it cut cherry wood and also warns "careful about your [[{{Fingore}} fingers]]!" whenever your fingers get too close for safety.

* IDontLikeTheSoundOfThatPlace: Parodied in the "Slangster Resort" [[note]] Not to be confused with Slangster House segments, which are European[[/note]] series where a couple is vacationing in a town called "Saint-gooey thing with three rows of [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily teeth]]" and they need to find a street called "Half-eaten corpse with the Devil's tail in its mouth".

** In Tome 5 there are baseball commentators who wish good luck to the cousin of one player who's about to have his rib cage surgically removed. There's also a mention of a player's grandmother having a rare disease called a "cistite" where you burp, fart and shit by both end.

* TooMuchInformation: Jean Charest (former Premier of Quebec and general [[TakeThat punching bag]] of Pérusse) once admitted out of nowhere on a television interview that he fantasized about [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annie_Brocoli Annie Brocoli]] [[note]]A French-Canadian children singer[[/note]] and whenever he thought about her the "[[{{Squick}} sour cream]]" wasn't too far away.

** Characters will sometimes break the fourth wall to comment on the [[WhoWritesThisCrap quality]] of their puns and jokes.

* BadBoss: Master Charbonneau, a bandmaster and one-shot character, learned that one of his violonists [[YourCheatingHeart slept with his wife]] so he destroys the guy's violin and fires him on the spot.

-->'''Wife''': Could you possibly [[YourCheatingHeart love another one]]?

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Played for Laugh; In "Columbo du Peuple", most murders will open with the future victim abusing their would-be assassins to ludicrous extreme, making it blatantly obvious who will get killed and why. Most memorably, one story opens with a woman insulting her husband before informing him she is going out with another richer man, [[YourCheatingHeart that she cheated on him with all his friends and enemies as well as his boss, the butcher and pretty much everyone else]], she thinks [[TeenyWeenie he has a small penis]], she damaged his car, she doesn't want to do it tonight because she got a headache, and she regrets taking this Life Assurance that'll grant him 15 million dollars when she'll die. Cue the narrator daring us to guess who will die in this story.
