* WTHCastingAgency: In the ''Pottersville'' ep, the crew is utterly baffled by the fact that someone had the idea of anchoring a lighthearted Christmas comedy around Creator/MichaelShannon, Creator/RonPerlman and Creator/IanMcShane, three of [[FaceOfAThug the most intimidating looking]] character actors working today.

** In the ''Film/FaceOff'' episode, the guys laugh at the seemingly random casting of Danny Masterson, best known as harmless stoner Steven Hyde on ''Series/That70sShow'', as a would-be date rapist. In 2020, Masterson was arrested and charged with four counts of rape.

** In the On-Screen episode reviewing ''Film/WonderWoman2017'', Andrew and his wife agree that a ''Film/{{Transformers}}'' movie with a female lead would never be very good, at least not with Creator/MichaelBay directing. Two years later, ''Film/{{Bumblebee}}'', starring Creator/HaileeSteinfeld and directed by Travis Knight, earned a 93% on Website/RottenTomatoes.

* AcceptableTargets:
** Creator/JamesBelushi. Several shots have been taken toward what they see as his crude, obnoxious screen presence (particularly whenever he appears in a SlobsVersusSnobs comedy), as well as some of his apparent misogyny in real life, up to and including [[http://www.whmpodcast.com/2013/08/whm-mailbag-bad-boyfriends-belushi-cults.html his membership in a bizarre "masculinity reclamation" society in Oakland.]]
** Creator/FrankMiller is also someone who has earned their reproach more than once.
** There have been multiple mentions of their dislike for Creator/LarryClark, mainly that his films are so obsessed with teenage sexuality that they are exploitative. One of their proposed titles for his biography is "Larry Clark: Ewwwwwww."
** Whenever Creator/JeffreyJones comes up on the show, the guys never fail to bring up his 2003 arrest for possession of child pornography, an incident that the gang refers to as "The Troubles." Andrew in particular has expressed disappointment, saying that he considered Jones a talented character actor and always liked seeing him appear in things.
** "The Unemployable" Creator/TomSizemore, though less for his drug abuse and more for "punching prostitutes" (referencing his relationship with Heidi Fleiss).
** Troy Duffy, if only for being [[TestosteronePoisoning a huge macho jerk]] with a tendency towards tiresome, quasi-homophobic GayPanic jokes. Skip Woods of ''Film/{{Swordfish}}'' and ''Film/Sabotage2014'' fame gets much the same treatment.
** Any particularly obnoxious right-wing celebrity, such as Creator/AdamBaldwin, UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump, "Creator/BenStein, America's rash," Creator/TimAllen, [[Creator/JohnRhysDavies John "MOOSELEMS!" Rhys-Davies]] and Adam "Something, Something, Mexicans" Carolla, get a measure of scorn; politicians less so, but it pops up from time to time, particularly with Andrew (who started a rant against John [=McCain=] that was so vitriolic that it left Eric momentarily stunned). Lampshaded by Steve in the review for ''Film/TheDayAfterTomorrow'': "This ''might'' be our most libtard episode yet." They do note in their ''Film/TransformersAgeOfExtinction'' episode that Creator/KelseyGrammer is a right-wing war-hawk, but not a "''crazy''" conservative.
** Creator/MaxLandis has been a target of significant ire lately, due to his arguably-misogynistic claim that [[Franchise/StarWars Rey]] is a Mary Sue; Andrew in particular is so disgusted by his antics that when the subject first came up, he referred to him only anonymously as a [[{{Nepotism}} "son of a director"]] rather than by name, and the term stuck.
** Radio host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has become this as of late. Catchem in bed with a goblin.
** Creator/TimAllen for his obnoxious personality and his [[Main/RatedMForManly Rated M For Manly]] "jokes".

** Pretty much every discussion of Creator/BruceWillis from the crew in late 2021 and 2022 involved what they dubbed Willis' "Secret Movies", i.e. the enormous ammount of extremely low budget, barely publicized and direct to streaming films Willis made during that period where he's usually only in for a scene or two and barely acts. The crew is mostly baffled as to why Willis would do these and wonder if he's simply getting old and lazy. In March 2022, Willis' family publicly stated Willis would retire due to suffering from aphasia, thus confirming a long-standing OpenSecret that Willis is suffering from cognitive decline and these "secret movies" are pretty much the only roles he is still capable of physically and mentally performing.

Cut to January of 2022, where they discuss it.

** In the ''Film/MortalKombat'' episode, while discussing the games, the gang muse on the bad timing of releasing a character like [[RabidCop Kurtis Stryker]] around the time of the Rodney King riots prompting Andrew to joke that because of that, whenever he picked Stryker and a friend picked Jax, he'd try to make them switch to [[{{Cyborg}} Cyrax]] instead. Later games in the series would [[SuddenlyEthnicity reveal]] that Cyrax is Botswanan, with ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'' devoting a full chapter to his pre-robotization self.

* ReplacementScrappy: Parodied. In the ''Film/TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen'' episode, Steve, intending to plug his improv group, opens the episode with "Hey, everybody! Andrew's not dead!" This leads to a brief riff about regular listeners panicking and potentially driving off a cliff to their deaths at the mere sound of someone else's voice at the top of the show.

** Whenever ''Film/TheKarateKid'' comes up, the gang shows itself to be fully on board with the "Daniel is the real villain" AlternateCharacterInterpretation. Said interpretation would later heavily influence the film's official continuation series ''Series/CobraKai''.
