* CrazyIsCool: Pastor Hickey, though you wouldn't believe it at first. [[spoiler: When he drinks rum, he becomes a pirate, and when he drinks a vodka martini (shaken, not stirred) he becomes Creator/SeanConnery-era Film/JamesBond.]] And yes, he's actually ''competent'' when he descends into those states.
* CrossesTheLineTwice: The source of much of the series' humor.
* NauseaFuel: Considering the setting, it's not surprising that this shows up a bunch.
* NightmareFuel: Once again, post-apocalyptic comedy. Much of what is hilarious is horrifying, possibly at the same time.
* TearJerker:
** The series finale when [[spoiler:Steve and Cuddles die in the blast that caused the apocalypse, and as a sad, somber rendition of the original theme plays as the camera slowly pans away from their skeletons. That was also the skeleton that ends up hanging above the fireplace in Steve's house]].
