* '''Implied''': Some characters discuss going to a beach planet for vacation, and a scientist character mentions getting sent to a crystal planet to conduct research, but the show never actually leaves its world, which is multi-biome.
* '''Deconstructed''':
** Harsher single-biome planets, such as desert or ice worlds, are shown to be completely uninhabitable, while ones suitable for habitation just bore their denizens and passing spaceship crews half to death because of their uniformity.
** Because of every planet being single-biome, they have to rely on interstellar imports to support civilization, which is terribly expensive if not impossible outright, and multi-biome planets like Earth are a precious resource for any galactic empire due to their self-sustainability.
* '''Played For Laughs''': A research vessel crew grows increasingly frustrated with finding a desert planet after desert planet, since they're looking for a jungle planet to research, which culminates in the captain blowing a fuse and unleashing a ClusterFBomb after finding a 17th desert planet in a row.
