3	* {{Anvilicious}}:
4	** The episode "Dead Meat". There is a rather gratuitous scene of a man eating a bacon sandwich, which squeals every time he takes a bite.
5	** In "The Devil Inside", [[spoiler:the ghosts of the people that could not be saved because Allison's stalker was interfering with her dreams (because he thought that she was doing the Devil's work) going after the stalker's ghost.]] Allison's faith in her dreams is renewed; the implication being, if they do not come from the Devil, who else could the dreams be coming from?
6	* HilariousInHindsight: Creator/RosannaArquette appearing in "Lady Killer" [[Film/BlackRainbow she played a medium before her sister Patricia did]].
7	* {{Narm}}: Quite a bit in the later years. Even in the series finale, where [[spoiler: Allison dies abruptly of old age while eating pea soup.]]
8	* RetroactiveRecognition:
9	** Creator/JennetteMcCurdy in the Season One episode "Coded."
10	** Creator/RamiMalek in "Time Out of Mind."
11	** A Season 2 episode has Allison helping a young woman played by a teenaged Creator/EmmaStone.
12	** Creator/JenniferLawrence played a murder victim in "Mother's Little Helper" and then, in the next season, played a young Allison in "But for the Grace of God."
13	** Creator/LilyRabe had one of her first major roles as [[spoiler:the murderous girlfriend posing as a victim]] in the two-part episode "Wicked Game", three years prior to her role in ''Series/AmericanHorrorStory''. (Creator/SarahDrew also played the missing girl in the same two-parter).
14	** Creator/OctaviaSpencer has jury duty in Season 2.
15	** Creator/ElisabethMoss is the victim of the week in season 3s 19th episode.
16	* SeasonalRot: In later years, it started using "And it was all a dream" as a twist a good deal too many times. It also started re-using other twists from previous episodes, though that is not to say that there were not still good ones, like "Time Keeps on Slippin'"
17	* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: The show sometimes features wacky plots and comedic moments that could appeal to a younger audience, but it still features pretty horrific and depraved crimes. As of 2019, Australian re-runs feature frequent advertisements aimed at distressed young viewers who can call a helpline--despite the fact that most seasons of the show are classified for mature audiences only.
