1* {{Corpsing}}: When [[Creator/StephenColbert Colbert]]-as-Noblet runs out of breath in his credits dance of "Blank Stare", you can actually hear the ''cameraman'' giggling.
2* DawsonCasting: Absolutely no effort is made to have any of the actors playing "high-school age" characters look like they're anywhere close to their supposed ages.
3* DoingItForTheArt: Creator/ChrisPratt was so eager to work on the film version that he lied and said that he lived in New York because the production only wanted to hire local actors to save money. He ended up losing $3,000 during the production because he had to pay for his own lodging and, at one point, had to fly back to Los Angeles to deal with an insurance ticket he forgot to pay.
4* TheOtherDarrin: They had to replace Jerri's brother in TheMovie because he "looked like a lumberjack". Also Jerri's dad bares no resemblance to his actor in the show whatsoever.
5* PermanentPlaceholder: Jerri was initially given the last name Blank (as in "fill in the blank") because the creators hadn't picked a real last name for her yet - it stuck.
6* ThrowItIn: "I stole the TV."
7** Script typos such as "I'll be back in a shortly" and "This was this one time..."
8* TorchTheFranchiseAndRun: The finale has shades of this; the series ends with Flatpoint High being destroyed by students and faculty alike so it wouldn't be converted into a strip mall, leaving no way to continue the series. TheMovie got around this by being a {{Prequel}}.
