**At the same time though Kenny cheats far less in later episodes, while during the first season he tended to cheat pretty much every episode.

* GassyGastronomy: One episode has the two protagonists competing over who can blow the biggest fart. Kenny and Spenny change their dietary habits, with the former gorging on his family's chili recipe, while the latter eats beans and brussel sprouts. When Spenny starts falling behind, he assembles a banquet of what he believes to be "the gassiest foods the planet can produce", which includes a variety of peppers, popcorn, cabbage, dry plums and broccoli. Although his strategy seems to work at first, Kenny tricks him into consuming anti-gas medication, ultimately causing Spenny to lose the competition.

* ManipulativeEditing: In "Who Can Wear a Gorilla Suit the Longest", when Jamie puts on a gorilla suit and throws a fit in front of Spenny, Kenny can briefly be seen out of his costume. The logical implication is that this footage was recorded before the competition had started, but the scene takes place roughly halfway into the episode and is presented as another plan by Kenny to mess with his opponent. When the episode was uploaded to [=YouTube=], the video comments were disabled and Kenny was blurred out in the scene in question, as a means to avoid discussions over the obvious inconsistency.

* EvilLaughTurnedCoughingFit: In "First Guy To Touch the Ground Loses", Spenny gets stuck on a fetish chair, so Kenny takes the opportunity to impersonate a cartoonish villain and torment him. Kenny lets out an EvilLaugh while pelting Spenny with coins, but quickly runs out of breath and begins coughing.

* ThePrankster: One of the show's main sources of humour is Kenny repeatedly annoying Spenny with practical jokes.
** In "Who Can Stay Blindfolded the Longest?" and "Who Can Have More Fun?", Kenny becomes Silencio, a mute wrestler who spends the entire episode pulling childish pranks on Spenny.
** In "Who Can Keep His Head in a Chicken Coop the Longest", Spenny is sprayed by a skunk as a humiliation. He tries to neutralize the smell by bathing in tomato juice, though Kenny reveals he has replaced some of Spenny's bottles with hot sauce, causing him even more pain.
** In "Who Can Eat More Meat?", Kenny begins vomiting uncontrollably due to food poisoning. Rather than retreat to his bedroom or seek medical attention, he goes out of his way to puke on the stairs and on Spenny's personal bathroom.

* BleepDammit:
** In "Who Can Handle More Torture", Spenny is forced to put a rubber penis in his mouth as part of a challenge. The toy is not blurred out until Spenny is already covering it with his lips.
** In "Who Can Keep a Dump in their Pants the Longest", the show blurs out an ointment's logo, a shot of Kenny's penis, and the stains in the competitors' diapers. However, the logo in the air fresheners used throughout the competition, frames where Spenny's genitals can be seen, and a close-up shot of fecal matter in Spenny's bathroom are not censored. In the DVD commentary, Kenny admits that these scenes were aired unedited by mistake.

A large amount of them got taken down again


In 2012 Kenny uploaded every single episode of the show (including some never aired) onto his Website/YouTube account. Tragically they were all taken down due to meddling from higher ups, but [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRSR9GR4CP7ivjS-_HzEJzG_yuS83vq3B they're back up as of 2018.]]

* DisqualificationInducedVictory: In the "Who Can Blow the Biggest Fart?" episode, at one point Spenny lets loose a ''huge'' fart that rivaled Kenny's best efforts and could have potentially won the episode for him. Unfortunately, he was holding the meter the wrong way, causing it to fail to register the full power of the fart. [[spoiler: This starts a sequence of events that leads to him losing the competition.]]

** In ''Who is Funnier'', Spenny confesses to a whole audience at a stand up club that he has HIV, or atleast he thought he did at the time. The comedian that went on stage immediately after Spenny walked out as an emotional wreck then proceeded to make jokes about Spenny having aids.

Spenny claimed that it was about proving he has courage, and noting that it's just water so he'd live. Obviously it was dangerous, but he didn't threaten suicide


** In "Who Has Bigger Balls" Kenny was able to rack up a decent lead by competing legitimately, but he still attempts to psych Spenny out by trashing his room. Unfortunately for Kenny this backfires when Spenny is so despondent and fed up that he threatens to commit suicide and Kenny forfeits to stop him.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* UpToEleven: Kenny has many evil alter egos, but somehow his Satan persona isn't the most evil or sadistic one. As Spenny notes in the Arm Wrestling episode, that honor goes to Silencio, a masked wrestler whose sole purpose is to sneak aound the house and pull childish pranks on him.

* MaleGaze: With an all male crew, it's bound to happen and thus, the b-roll in "Who Can Survive on an Island the Longest?" is a ''marathon'' of shots focused only on the rears of Cuba's finest beach babes.

** Kenny will often twist the rules of a competition by interpreting them too literally. Verges on InsaneTrollLogic in the arm wrestling episode, when Spenny says that he wants "a fair match between Kenny Hotz and Spencer Rice". So Kenny locates a 14-year old boy who is also named Spencer Rice and handily wins a match against him.

* DrugsAreGood: "Who Can Smoke More Weed?", which is the only episode where Kenny and Spenny actually get along. At one point Spenny of all people even suggests pausing the competition to just hang out and have fun together. This stands in stark contrast who "Who Can Drink More Beer?", where Spenny became a frightenly violent drunk.
