History YMMV / Drawtectives

* PoisonOakEpilepticTrees: InUniverse, Julia Lepetit is horrified by the theory that Harold was run over in the car accident, stating that she would never kill off a dog. [[spoiler: Indeed, Harold turns out to be very much alive.]]

* AcceptableTargets: Basket weavers, [[ParodiedTrope of all people,]] are depicted as greedy, possibly corrupt vampire card sharks.

* CriticalResearchFailure: Not in the series itself, which is [[ShownTheirWork full of details and designs that went unnoticed purely in case one of the players noted an inaccuracy]], but in the Q&A livestream Julia mentions how she wants to avoid the common problem in mystery media of [[NarrowedItDownToTheGuyIRecognize celebrity guests obviously being the killer because why would you get them otherwise]] and brings up an episode of Series/CriminalMinds where Jason Alexander is ''so obviously'' the killer that it doesn't work. This would be a good example, if it wasn't for the fact that the entire plot of the episode in question starts with him announcing that he's a serial killer to the police, meaning that it was never actually a case of what she was trying to avoid in the first place.

** Karina Farrek's epilogue illustrations are also quite beautiful.

** "Tizza" -- the local pizza-equivalent served at [[UsefulNotes/ChuckECheese Hucky Heese]]. It was bad enough that Nathan Yaffe ''immediately'' retconned it to "beeza" (made from real bees, very spicy) [[ThatCameOutWrong after realizing what it sounded like when said out loud.]]

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: Don Jovi wasn't the last Drawfee character who had to work for experience without actually getting paid. [[WebVideo/{{Drawga}} The Ladies Book Club]] would later have to deal with the same thing. For them, it was an actual source of frustration and not something which could be easily shrugged off.

* ValuesDissonance: InUniverse, there is a lot of this between the northern orc tribes and the more civilized world.
** Notably, Harper Justice is [[JerkassHasAPoint understandably upset]] about York peeing right next to her. York, however, feels like it was more offensive to ''not'' pee right on her, as that is considered a sign of great respect in his tribe.

* IAmNotShazam: PlayedForLaughs. The word "Drawtectives" is never actually used in the show. Our heroes only ever refer to themselves as the detectives, and are perplexed that anybody would call them anything else.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: The show has been described as the most elaborate project ever made for Drawfee and it ''shows.'' [[AuthorAppeal Julia Lepetit's love]] of SceneryPorn is on full display here.

* HilariousInHindsight: In the penultimate episode of Season One, Nathan Yaffe suggests using "ghost defect juice" to ward off unwelcome spirits. It ended up being released on Website/YouTube only two days after the GrandFinale of WebVideo/{{Drawga}}, in which he tried ([[NoSell unsuccessfully]]) to use "anti-demon juice) against the BigBad, leading to jokes about him being obsessed with juice-based solutions to supernatural problems.

* AccidentalInnuendo: "Ghost nut milk", which was ''meant'' to simply be almond milk ''for'' ghosts.

** Overall, the partygoers are very nonchalant about there being a murderer in their midst. This makes Grendan suspect that they were all in on the murder.

* AccepteableTargets: Basket weavers, [[ParodiedTrope of all people,]] are depicted as greedy, possibly corrupt vampire card sharks.

** Our protagonists point out that Harper Justice doesn't seem very sad about the death of her father, but admit that people handle grief differently. She eventually admits that she never liked him that much anyway.
