* '''Logical Extreme''': Bob's entire character and storyline in ''Alice and Bob'' revolve around referencing and incorporating his previous roles in every aspect, creating a complex web of interconnected references.



** "Hey, Bob, isn't it funny how you always seem to find loose change lying around? Almost like it's a running theme or something."



* '''Played for Laughs''': Bob constantly makes self-referential jokes about his past roles, often leading to comedic situations and reactions from other characters.
* '''Played for Drama''': Bob's references to his previous roles are used as a dramatic device to explore themes of identity and the impact of past experiences on his present character.
* '''Played for Horror''': The recurring references to Bob's previous roles take a dark turn when his past characters start haunting him, blurring the line between reality and fiction.
* '''Implied''': In a brief scene, Bob is seen holding a nickel in his hand, suggesting a subtle nod to his previous role as Daniel, the character who lost a nickel.
* '''Unparodied''': Despite the show's satirical nature, Bob's references to his previous roles are presented in a straightforward manner, without any subversion or mockery.
* '''Untwisted''': The audience expects Bob to make a reference to his previous role, but he never does, surprising everyone with the lack of callback.
* '''Deconstructed''': The constant references to Bob's previous roles become a burden for him, as he struggles to establish his own identity and escape the shadow of his past characters.
* '''Reconstructed''': Bob's references to his previous roles are deconstructed to highlight the depth and complexity of his acting range, ultimately leading to a renewed appreciation for his talent and versatility.
