  • Values Dissonance:
    • A lot of Rob's celebrity imitations, such as Imran Khan, Yasir Arafat and Desmond Tutu, would never fly today, and certainly would have been controversial outside Australia even at the time. Jane's blackface portrayal of Oprah Winfrey as well. Rob's imitations of white non-Australians such as F. W. de Klerk is not much better (Rob's de Klerk verbally implies that the "F. W." stands for "Fuck Wit"). Tommy G asks Rob's Arafat if Arafat's Arab headwear is a teatowel.
    • In the Cluster Bleep-Bomb Glengarry Glen Ridge sketch, the fact that the word "faggot" is one of the few words not bleeped out will stand out to modern viewers.
