History Series / CheckItOutWithDrSteveBrule

* AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle: [[SpoofAesop Spoofed]] OnceAnEpisode, when Brule summarizes what's been learned. "Some dads are not ''your'' dad" is one from the "Family" episode.

* AndNowForSomethingCompletelyDifferent: The Season 4 episode "Stevie!" has Steve hosting a live morning talk show.

* UsefulNotes/FurryFandom: In the episode "Animals". Oddly enough, one of the least sensationalistic [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_TKgWDZiv4 representations]] of it on television.

* AdultFear: Steve once has a nightmare that he loses his (fictitious) baby son. "SOMEONEHELPILOSTMYBABYROOY!"

* AmbiguouslyBi: Steve himself. It doesn't seem to take much to make him attracted to a woman, and he once found Johnny Depp lookalike Ronnie Rodriguez attractive simply for having shoulder-length hair.

--> ""It's a show that genuinely feels like this guy made it himself. It’s as if it's 4:30 in the morning he had snuck into the studio to make this show without getting permission. It's bare-bones. Lots of technical problems. Just a mess. The whole thing is a big mess. A big beautiful mess."

* StylisticSuck: The show emulates a cable access series from the late 80s/early 90s, complete with several deliberate technical errors per episode.
** The segment transitions are riddled with visual artifacts to simulate the show being recorded on old VHS tapes.
** The editors run the footage through a VCR and hit it every once in a while to screw up the vertical synchronization.

* CharacterDeath: Linda Barelli, [[spoiler: Wayne Skylar]].

* BadLiar: Steve is very quick spin outrageous lies about himself to seem more impressive or one-up an interviewee, and is almost always met with immediate skepticism.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Steve himself. It doesn't seem to take much to make him attracted to a woman, and he once found Johnny Depp lookalike Ronnie Rodriguez attractive simply for having ear-length hair.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Steve himself.

* HuntingTheMostDangerousGame: Hippie Joel in the episode "Home" Get runnin boy

* SpinOff: Of ''TimAndEricAwesomeShowGreatJob'', specifically the "Brule's Rules With Dr. Steve Brule" sketch.

* VerbalTic: Brule has a habit of sticking an R after the first letter of certain words ('Pruppets', 'Broat'.)
** He also tends to struggle with unfamiliar words or names and has an inclination to replace syllables with "ing", "ang", "ung" or "ingus" when he has to repeat them. (Ronnie Rodriguez = "Rongie Rungriguez")

-->'''Captain Gary:''' I think that goes alone with the safety issue.

* IMeantToDoThat: After doing or saying something incorrectly in front of an expert, Steve tries to save face by retorting their correction with a reassuring "I know!"

* EnforcedPlug: The show isn't extremely subtle about its fake ProductPlacement. On a couple of occasions, the episode wedges representatives of sponsors into the "Doctor to Doctor" segment. In the case of Ron Don Valante, proprietor of Ron Don's Play Pen, Valante got the spot despite having nothing to do with the episode's topic (Church.) In the "Horses" episode, it's obvious the topic was chosen by guest Pablo Myers, owner of Myers' Super Food, so he could plug a canned horse meat sale.

* TheAllegedCar: Steve's "cherry-blue hot rod" that he buys in "Cars". It [[AllCarsArePintos explodes in the middle of an intersection shortly after he buys it.]]
