* TheyFightCrime: Invoked in ''Body Care and Grooming'';
-->'''Servo''': Body Care! And Grooming! They're cops!

* CelebrityResemblance: Servo dubs the snow-covered Taylor Music/MichaelMcDonald.

--> '''Crow's argument:''' I like her sloppy. While her well-groomed -- in other words, square -- classmates were listening to Pat Boone and Patti Page, she was at the local jazz club, groovin' to [[Music/MilesDavis Miles]], Monk and [[Music/JohnColtrane Coltrane]]. While her classmates were struggling to make it through an issue of ''Reader's Digest'', she was the only woman on campus who can freely quote Henry Miller. She may be sloppy, but she fits deeply into my idea of paradise.\\

* {{Mondegreen}}: While reading the end credits for the movie, Joel and the Bots are surprised to learn that the character whose name they heard as "[[FanNickname Pile-on Pete]]"[[invoked]] was actually "''Pilot'' Pete".

* ThePigPen: Dr. F was hoping Frank would see would see the short ("Body Care and Grooming"), but he's [[TheyKilledKennyAgain dead again]]. The narrator thinks the "young lady" from the introduction to the short is an example, but the guys (especially Crow) don't agree.

* CelebrityResemblance: Servo dubs the snow covered Taylor Music/MichaelMcDonald.

* DudeNotFunny: Invoked when Shep gets sick from the poison -- Servo keeps making riffs that Shep's a goner; Crow is deeply offended. Even Joel calls out Servo for going too far in his callous riffs about a dying dog.

* HollywoodHeartAttack: The Cholester-Do-All works by [[InsaneTrollLogic harnessing the power of an overworked, cholesterol-clogged heart]]... which, inevitably, puts further strain on Frank's heart and [[TheyKilledKennyAgain kills him yet again]].

* SubliminalSeduction: Joel invents "Back-Talk", an answering machine that allows anyone to record backwards messages for themselves as subconscious reminders.

* BigNo: We get one out of Forrester when he's trying to revive Frank from a heart attack. It peters out when he realizes Joel's watching. He shrugs and says now he's got to go out and buy a new heart, like it's an auto part.

-->'''Tom Servo''': ''(manic)'' Oh, you'd ''like'' me to believe that, wouldn't you, Mr. ''West'''?!

* AnachronismStew: "Is this the ''real'' [[TheWestern Old West]], or the Creator/RoyRogers Old West where they had electricity and cars?"

* SnapBack: Through the [[HandWave simple act]] of extruding him, Joel restores Crow from his melted down state just in time to resume the film following the commercial break.

** "Snaussages!"

* ValuesDissonance: Invoked, snarkily following the short's '50s values through to conclusion: "good grooming" is about attracting a husband by dressing and looking like everyone else ("Expressing individualism is just plain wrong.").

* AnachronismStew: "Is this the ''real'' old west, or the Roy Rogers old west where they had electricity and cars?"
* ArtisticLicenseHistory: The only things Crow's term paper got right were that UsefulNotes/RutherfordBHayes was a lawyer, served in the Civil War, was President, ended Reconstruction, and eventually died.
** And to give you an idea about how factually accurate the ''rest'' of the paper is, [[ThisIsGonnaSuck right off the bat, Crow states that Rutherford B. Hayes was born to]] ''[[MyOwnGrandpa his son]]''.

* BigNo: We get one out of Forrester when he's trying to revive Frank from a heart attack.

* DudeNotFunny: Invoked when Shep gets sick from the poison -- Servo keeps making riffs that Shep's a goner, provoking Crow to get deeply offended. Even Joel calls out Servo for going too far in his callous riffs about a dying dog.

** [[{{Music/Tommy}} Tommy, can you hear me?]]

* ShoutOut: The movie's main claim to fame is that it stars Series/{{Lassie}}:

* TheyKilledKennyAgain: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Dr Forrester after the invention exchange:

* TakeThat: Crow's impression of Creator/JayLeno doing ''Series/{{The Tonight Show|WithJayLeno}}'' monologue in the opening is all "jokes" about [[SleazyPolitician congress having sex]].

* HollywoodHeartAttack: The Cholester-Do-All works by [[InsaneTrollLogic harnessing the power of an overworked, cholesterol-clogged heart]]... which, inevitably, puts further strain the heart and [[TheyKilledKennyAgain kills Frank yet again]].
* {{Mondegreen}}: While reading the end credits for the movie, Joel and the Bots are surprised to learn that the character they've been calling "[[FanNickname Pile-on Pete]]"[[invoked]] all movie was actually "''Pilot'' Pete".

* ValuesDissonance: Invoked, snarkily following the short's '50s values through to conclusion: "good grooming" is about attracting a husband ("You know, so he can grope and paw at you.") by dressing and looking like everyone else ("Expressing individualism is just plain wrong.").
-->'''Narrator:''' But good grooming is more than clothes-deep.\\

* TheyKilledKennyAgain: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Dr Forrester.

* UnnecessaryMakeover: In Universe, In the second Host Segment, Crow and Servo have a debate over whether the girl from the short is more attractive sloppy or clean, with Gypsy moderating and Joel deciding the outcome.

'''Servo's argument:''' I like her clean, 'cause it just shows that she wants to change the system from within. Sure she's a seething cauldron of passion, but she wears clean underpants, and she knows where her shirt is in the morning. Call her what you will -- a Scoop Jackson democrat or a Jacob Javits republican -- either way, she's the stuff that dreams are made of.\\

-->'''Dr Forrester:''' Well, Frank's dead again!

* NeverMyFault: After Frank's heart gives out due to Dr. Forrester, who was using it as his own personal generator, runs too many appliances at the same time, Dr. Forrester decides to blame ''[[SpeakIllOfTheDead Frank]]''.

* SanitySlippage: At one point, Tom straight up melts Crow down to form him into a gold ingot, despite Joel stating that Crow is only ''painted'' gold.
