* FunnyAneurysmMoment: "Age Against the Machine" features Charlie ultimately deciding that he's too old to party every night. If only Creator/CharlieSheen had come to that same conclusion...
* HarsherInHindsight: Creator/CarlaGugino's final episode has Mike being worried that his and Ashley's differing political views and competitiveness could result in the destruction of their relationship. Ashley assures him everything's fine, and their relationship can withstand anything. Seems heartwarming, at first, but ''the very next episode'', had Mike just been dumped by Ashley, and going through a HeroicBSOD. Damn....

Critical Research Failure is now a disambiguation


* CriticalResearchFailure: In an episode where Michael tries to find out if his staff has been lying on their resumes, he confronts Paul with his claim that he has been involved in a Jordanian election, suggesting that it can't be right, since Jordan is a monarchy. While the king of Jordan does retain much personal power, the country has multi-party politics and the Jordanian House of Representatives is democratically elected.
** During Paul's run on Who Wants to Be A Millionaire, the final question is who was the Stanley Cup MVP in 1964. The playoff MVP trophy, also known as the Conn Smythe, wasn't awarded until the following year, 1965. They also spelled the name of Jacques Plante and Jacques Lapierre wrong



* EpilepticTrees: James had already gotten fired last season and was on Mike's payroll as the "Deputy Deputy Mayor", so when Mike left..?

* HoYayShipping: Stuart & Carter eventually started acting more and more like this. Unusual mainly because Carter ''was'' gay. Became very, ''very'' close to canon at times. (Carter's nightmarish ImagineSpot about ending up with Stuart, miserable together until death, is probably a crowning example.)

* {{Tearjerker}}: The fourth season finale certainly qualifies. This is emphasized by the fact that the show's usually upbeat music is replaced with sad motifs and themes, and there is a reprisal of 'Everybody Gets What They Deserve' by The Churchills, which was used in a heartwarming moment in Season 3.

In "Hilarious in Hindsight," I added the fact Mayor Winston caught a ball ruining Clemens' no-hitter (or maybe a perfect game), before Steve Bartman's misfortune.

Added DiffLines:

** In "Catcher In the Bronx," Mayor Winston catches a foul ball that was meant for the Yankees fielder, which would've fulfilled Roger Clemens' no-hitter. Clemens surrendered a hit to the next batter. Many were disappointed in the mayor, to say the least. Later on in 2003 in Chicago, Steve Bartman would suffer a real-life fate & a much greater burden than a mere no-hitter by catching a foul ball that, had a Cub caught it, would've surely gotten the Cubs to the World Series since last appearing in 1945. Chicago's opponent, the Florida (now Miami) Marlins, won the National League pennant instead & then the year's World Series by beating the Yankees. (Clemens was among them before becoming a Houston Astro the next season.) Marlins fans can find it hilarious. Cubs fans considered it [[HarsherInHindsight harsh]] from 2003 to 2016. Incidentally Bartman was absolved after the Cubs won the 2016 World Series.
