* AlterKocker: Iason Skullsaber and Brody Brennick once did this in a game of "Two-Line Vocabulary", to the point that Dane Forgione [[{{Corpsing}} corpses]] and has to exit the scene.
* AnachronismStew: Frequently happens in "Film & Theater Styles" when the suggestion calls for it.
* AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: Usually, Foreign Film Dub will be a language that either the cast doesn't know a word of, or is made up.
* AudienceParticipation: A lot of the games' suggestions are from the audience.
* BackToFront: "Backwards Scene".
* BadDate: The subject of a few games, mainly "Let's Make a Date", but there have been others.
* BadImpressionists: Stephanie Gooch frequently states that she can't do impressions or accents.
** Michael Riley, during the 50th episode, played Gary Busey in "Schizo Monologue" to some success, but when he switched to Nicolas Cage, he came off sounding more like Dennis Miller.
* BiggerIsBetterInBed: A running joke with Dane Forgione.
** During one episodes intro, in which he was the only male on cast, he was given the nickname Dane "Hot Rod" Forgione. His response: "Let me jump rope with it."
* BilingualBonus: During a game of "Foreign Film Dub", Michael Riley and Chelsea Tarkington actually spoke real French, though the translations for said phrases were not accurate.
* BlackComedy: The basis of any game involving the death of a character: "Death in 60 Seconds", "Four Ways to Die" or "Understudy".

* {{Corpsing}}: The performers try to keep straight faces, but usually end up not being able to help but laugh.
** You can always hear Michael Riley laughing at things.
* CouchGag: Michael Riley will always introduce the performers using weird non-sequitur saying, television show titles, music lyrics or other things.
* CreativeClosingCredits: With a bonus {{LeaningOnTheFourthWall}} since they're always read in the style of Michael Riley's choosing.
* CrosscastRole: Alessandro Hutt has played a female on many occasions, complete with falsetto voice.
* DarkSecret: The premise of "Secret", though the secrets are usually silly.
* DealWithTheDevil: On the 50th episode, Joey Sabatino claims she sold her soul to the devil to get the show to 50 episodes.
* DidIJustSayThatOutLoud: During a game of "Understudy", Alessandro Hutt wanted to drive around with orphans on the hood of cars. Iason replies by saying he "has a whole bag of orphans ready to mount." Michael Riley immediately points out to him the folly of his sentence, though it takes a second for Iason to realize what he said and burst into laughter.
* {{Fanservice}}: Frequently, Chelsea Tarkington will be cast as someone naked or nude.
** Jillian Zurawski is this to some degree, as her boobs are a common topic of conversation.
* FullyClothedNudity: Since we can't see the actors/actresses, we assume they are fully clothed, even when acting nude in-character.
* LargeHam: Jason Jermakow early on demonstrated an ability to take a scene and run with it.
** Iason Skullsaber is also this to a large degree, since he tends to exaggerate his words a lot.
* TheAlcoholic: Iason Skullsaber tends to portray this quite a bit.
* TheCastShowOff: Usually Dane Forgione or Jason Jermakow.
