* OhCrap: In "Meet Killface", Trent, one of the kidnapped twin brother film producers, makes a rant how to make Killface's presentation more "[[Creator/JayLeno Leno-y]]" when he brings up the backdrop.

After ''Frisky Dingo's'' cancellation, the animation studio behind it (70/30 Studios) shut down--but that turned out for the best, as the creative team behind the show eventually produced [[WesternAnimation/{{Archer}} a hit show about a super-spy with sociopathic tendencies]] that has run eleven seasons and counting.

* UnnecessaryTimePrecision: {{Parodied}} in the second season. Xander, the resident ComicBook/{{Batman}} CorruptedCharacterCopy, is being interviewed about his homelessness --he used to be a millionaire. When the interviewer informs him it's been a year, he asks what day is. Apparently, he became homeless on a Thursday one year ago. Or not and he's just trolling people.
--> '''Interviewer:''' Well, it's been a year now-\\
'''Xander:''' A Year?! It's really been a whole year? What's today?\\
'''Interviewer:''' Thursday.\\
'''Xander:''' Oh my God, it has been a year.

** Xander goes on a long, [[{{Metaphorgotten}} irrelevant]] tirade about his frequent masturbation.
-->'''Xander''': Look, don't worry man. At his age, I was like, ''chronic'' masturbater. Kinda, kinda still am. But the point is... I like it. I would like to masturbate right now in this car. You know? If I had my stuff with me. I would! What are we even talking about?
** During one of the in-show interviews, Simon starts masturbating just off camera, apparently out of sheer spite.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Taken UpToEleven - not merely are the supposed "[[AntiHero hero]]" and "[[AntiVillain villain]]" unsympathetic, but just ''try'' finding a genuinely sympathetic character in the show. Even the characters who seem innocent at first have their moments of {{jerkass}}ery, or outright become jerks due to the way they are treated.
