  • Funny Moments: In "Talk is Cheap", the brothers appear on Jerry Springer's show and act like typical Springer guests.
  • Heartwarming Moments:
    • In the Christmas Episode, Pops talks about why Christmas means so much to him. When he was four, his father was away in the war, while his mother had no money to buy gifts. When Pops and the other siblings were about to go to bed, they heard a noise outside: their dad had finally come home and on Christmas Day, no less.
    "It was the happiest day of my life. After that, I decided I would never spend another Christmas without my family."
    • After Shawn saves a kid when he's hit by a car, everyone believes Marlon saved him and Shawn was the reason he got hit. In the end, Marlon realizes how wrong it is to take the glory and tells everyone it was his brother who saved the kid's life. When Marlon leaves the stage Pops, his father who usually rags on him, hugs his son and calls him a hero, and then Shawn invites him on stage to share the fame. It warms your heart.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Shawn complains that his grandma ruined his jeans by turning them from '90s baggy to skin-tight. Within ten years, skinny jeans would be in style.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: Astute viewers will notice that the soundtrack of the show consists of slightly tweaked versions of songs from New York-based rappers who were popular at the time.
