** Ultimately subverted with Hobo_Funnie_Ad_Comp, where Bobo [[spoiler: apparently escaped from the ad]]. How and why is never really explained.
* AmbiguousSituation: The entire show. We don't know why Hobo's world collapsed, why the big figure antagonizes him so much, why Hobo keeps teleporting to different places, why he has painful visions of a world where he's a character in an animated tv show or in fact anything at all about what's going on, fitting its surreal nature. The fact there is now [[spoiler: AI implementation and the CEO of Ramster's disappearance mentioned in Ad_Comp]] leaves a lot more questions about the nature of the series.

* ChristmasSpecial: It's a Very Hobo Hobo Christmas (titled The Hobo Hobo Christmas Special on [[Website/YouTube YouTube]]) features your favorite Hobo Hobo characters in this non-canon christmas special! It's also notable for being a non-canon BreatherEpisode of sorts in that, while it keeps the surreal humor of the rest of the series, Hobo hangs out with his friends instead of getting horribly traumatized, making the episode more reminiscent of [[WesternAnimation/SmilingFriends Smiling Friends]].

* StylisticSuck: Not really the animation itself, which pays a great homage to the CGI of the 2000's, but the videos repeatedly start to get blurry and poor quality (especially whenever the big figure appears). Exaggerated in the fourth episode, where it gets so blurry for a bit that Hobo himself is basically blind.

* TakeThat: "Hobo_Funnie_Ad_Comp" takes some potshots at the growing trend of AI-generated media and its use in advertising spaces in the 2020's. The fast food kids' toy commercial Hobo comments on simulates the artifical and plastic-y look these AI-created ads often take when trying to create a live-action setting, as well as throwing in random elements like a hamster.

Hobo Hobo Funnie Show (titled [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKOjlqChlzo Hobo_Funnie_Show]] on [[Website/YouTube YouTube]]) is a webseries starring a blue little guy with a considerable rear end named Hobo.

Stylized after the CGI trend of the mid-late 2000s, it presumably is about him and two other guys he hangs out with, an unnamed red pole-like creature, and a yellow guy similar to Hobo. Unfortunately, the world Hobo lives him collapses, and is forced to figure out what exactly is going on, and to escape from big, static figure that wants to do... something to him.
