* MistakenForRacist: subverted in a gag involving Sarah and Laura shopping at a thrift store: Laura laughingly points out an unfashionable pair of knickers (as in knee-length trousers) on the racks and Sarah loudly exclaims "I hate knickers!" - a black woman ahead of them turns around and looks offended, and Sarah haltingly tries to explain... only to notice that the woman was wearing knickers herself, and presumably heard Sarah correctly after all.

* {{NEET}}: Sarah is this. She's been unemployed her whole life even into her 30s and has to depend on and live with her sister for food and housing (but will even stoop as low as to steal Laura's rent money).

Comedy Central then [[{{Uncancelled}} decided to bring it back]] for a third season after {{Logo}} decided to co-fund it, apparently only because the show features a StraightGay couple (who are actually played by straight actors). The show was cancelled again, after Comedy Central seemed to give up on it.
