* ProductPlacement: Parodied. Halfway through the second film, the director comes on and orders them to stop the movie, with them having run out of money, with a particularly pushy executive pointing out that ''everyone'' who says a line during the sequence has to be paid ''because there's still a camera on'', until Creator/GeorgeClooney suggests they do this, which is considered a great idea. Several scenes later, after some especially shameless examples, one of the cast asks if they can finish the film now, gets confirmation, declares "Finally" and it stops happening.

There the threat of the episode is also Gangreen's ultimate creation: Larry. A killer tomato ''two '''miles''' in diameter'', with tendrils big enough that Gangreen is confident he can split the San Andreas fault with them. Larry would even return in the cartoon's tie-in Nintendo game as a boss monster, called "Larry the Monster Mountain Tomatoe from the Nintendo game.Tomato".

* DamnItFeelsGoodToBeAGangster: In "The Gang That Couldn't Squirt Straight" (Season 1, Episode 12), Zoltan and the other Tomatoes abandon Dr. Gangreen and strike out for their own, sick of his constant withholding of fertilizer as punishment for their failures to beat Chad and his allies. Whilst escaping, they fall into the old hideout of a long-defunct vaguely Mafioso-themed gang who once terrorized San Zucchini, and this inspires them to pattern themselves after the gangsters of old -- with fedora hats, zoot suits, tommy guns, and pseudo-Italian American accents straight out of old gangster movies.

Gangreen's tomato underlings, the Gang of Six, outright rebel against him in the season one episode "The Gang That Couldn't Squirt Straight" due to being sick of him denying them fertilizer. Season two opens with the newly empowered tomatoes conquering the world, only to then turn on Gangreen, leading to him, the tomatoes and the anti-tomato task force fighting in a three-way conflict that builds up to the series finale, "The Great Tomato Wars", where Fang ousts Zoltan as leader of the Gang of Six, causing Zoltan to then re-ally himself with Dr. Gangreen and a new gang of caveman-themed tomatoes to take back leadership.

Sure enough, Chad defeats him by stealing some of the exploding chemicals from the twin nerds at the camp and detonating the gas, causing Larry to be blown into space.
