* TheDitz: Not as much as Thunk, but she can be quite spacey on top of being odd.



* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Amber can be abrasive and aggressive, but she will help the Croods if they have a problem.



* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He may be an arrogant, whiny DirtyCoward, but deep down he cares about his family and others.



* {{Jerkass}}: Possibly the biggest one in the valley. [[ApatheticTeacher He cares less about the "students" he endangers]] and more about the food he wants for his stomach.

* {{Flanderization}}: In the first film, she's a CoolOldLady that [[ObnoxiousInLaws enjoys pushing her son-in-laws buttons]], with shades of TheSocialDarwinist mindset don for BlackComedy. ''Dawn of the Croods'', ''A New Age'' and ''Family Tree'' play up the "Social Darwinist" side, making her a [[NeverMessWithGranny badass]] from a more barbaric time who sees her family's domesticity ([[DeliberateValuesDissonance at least by caveman standards]]) as a sign of weakness (which again, is PlayedForLaughs).

Added DiffLines:

* AesopAmnesia: Downplayed. In the first film, Grug starts out treating Guy's presence among his family with hostility, both because his "modern" ideas contradict the "new things are bad" philosophy he's used to keep everyone safe and [[DatingWhatDaddyHates a desire to keep Eep away from boys]]. By the end of the film, he accepts him as a member of the family and seems to approve of him and Eep's relationship. In ''A New Age'', he just barely tolerates them being together, but still has trouble accepting Guy as an official part of the family, thinking that he'll break up the pack in his desire to run off with Eep for their own "Tomorrow". By the end of the film, he accepts the idea of Guy and Eep starting a life together and even calls him "son." By the start of ''Family Tree'', he goes back to barely tolerating Guy, though the show doesn't focus on it as much.

Added DiffLines:

* AwesomeButImpractical: In ''Family Tree'', a lot of his ideas and inventions are wrought with redundancies, are overly {{complex|ityAddiction}} or are overthought. In "Parental Stridence", his solutions to people reaching across the dinner table include a giant rock (as a preventive measure), a miniature ballista and a line of ants to carry dishes around. In "Skate or Dawn" he reinvents Guy's [[SimpleYetAwesome rollerlog]] into a tower on wheels which fails to properly gain and traction and falls apart instantly.
