* UnexplainedRecovery: The cutscene before [[FinalBoss 5]][[BossOnlyLevel -]][[LevelInBossClothing 10]] seems to suggest [[spoiler: Dave has his brains eaten, as he is grabbed and carried off by a bungee zombie and his pot helmet falls, although he still appears in the credits fine, just bouncing up and down with the Bungee Zombie,]] but he appears again in the sequel alive and well, and not a zombie, with no explanation.

* {{Flanderization}}: In the original, he was a little eccentric and a bit crazy, but still fairly intelligent and knowledgeable about the plants and zombies. In ''It's About Time'', the introduction of [[StraightWoman Penny]] makes him [[TookALevelInDumbass much dumber]], often relying on Penny to interpret his ramblings.

* CatchPhrase: BECAUSE I'M CRAAAAAAAZY!

* DitzyGenius: He comes up with very effective (yet bizarre) methods of fighting against the zombies, and is able to build a time machine, but as he quickly explains, he is crazy.

* BerserkButton: Crazy Dave '''''really''''' hates Bungee Zombies. An entire level centered around Bungees is enough to make his blood boil. Considering how Bungees are [[GoddamnedBats/PlantsVsZombies very dangerous zombies that can steal strong plants, bring in stronger zombies, and are near impossible to stop without an insta-kill]], could anyone really blame the poor guy?

* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Chocolate.

** He also has some knowledge of birds evolving from dinosaurs, evidenced at the end of Jurassic Marsh when the good guys escape the world due to an incoming meteor.

* UnexplainedRecovery: The cutscene before [[FinalBoss 5]][[BossOnlyLevel -]][[LevelInBossClothing 10]] seems to suggest [[spoiler: Dave has his brains eaten, as he is grabbed and carried off by a bungee zombie and his pot helmet falls,]] but he appears again in the sequel alive and well, and not a zombie, with no explanation.
