History Radio / LesDeuxMinutesDuPeuple

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Played for Laugh; In "Columbo du Peuple", most murders will open with the future victim abusing their would-be assassins to ludicrous extreme, making it blatantly obvious who will get killed and why. Most memorably, one story opens with a woman insulting her husband before informing him she is going out with another richer man, that she cheated on him with all his friends and enemies as well as his boss, the butcher and pretty much everyone else, she thinks [[TeenyWeenie he has a small penis]], she damaged his car, she doesn't want to do it tonight because she got a headache, and she regrets taking this Life Assurance that'll grant him 15 million dollars when she'll die. Cue the narrator daring us to guess who will die in this story.

* CartridgesInFlight: One of the [[https://youtu.be/vPgksNgzPIA?t=36 cartoons]] on the "DVD du Peuple" features a cop handling a .38 caliber bullet ([[{{BFG}} the size of a tank shell no less]]) that he found on a crime scene, showing the rim and primer of the cartridge still attached. {{Justified}} by the [[SurrealHumor surreal]] nature of the cartoons.

* 1999-2001 - ''Le Journul'' (The Jour-Null, also renamed the Nothing Day in one of episode): Short, 50-second sketches that covered a topic of recent news. The short sketch was made the night prior, and then sent to the animators on the followung morning; and they had to animate it (using mo-cap and CGI) to air that same day, at 6:00 PM during the news.

** More like "Artistic License - Law ''Enforcement''", a guy [[BurgerFool who makes hotdogs in a Costco]] applies for a job at the [[UsefulNotes/AmericanLawEnforcement FBI]], which is described as a "secret service" handling ''foreign'' intelligence, rather than a federal police force. The FBI agent doing the job interview also mentions they suspect UsefulNotes/VladimirPutin to be creating a new [[UsefulNotes/MoscowCentre KGB]]. This is redundant, since the [[UsefulNotes/TheNewRussia Russian Federation]] already ''has'' a successor to the KGB, the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Security_Service FSB]]. And there's no way a FBI agent would just tell ''that'' to a potential recruit. The recruiter does mention that you need prior experience with intelligence or police work, or you start ''really'' from the bottom of the ladder. In reality you need both prior experience ''and'' a college degree. And to top it all off the recruiter then tells the guy they have a "small" case they could give him involving an Al-Qaeda front operating in Washington D.C.

* ArtisticLicenseSpace: An European sketch involving the mission control for a Mars probe ([[ShownTheirWork correctly]]) states that the distance between Mars and the sun is around 230 000 000 kilometers. One of the astronomers asks if this means the probe won't risk being [[HurlItIntoTheSun attracted into the Sun's orbit]]. In practice it's surprisingly hard to crash something into the Sun, since this would require cancelling a lot of orbital velocity (around 30 km/s if you're in Earth's orbit), and any professional astronomer would know this.

* BadBoss: Master Charbonneau, a bandmaster and one-shot character, learned that one of his violonists slept with his wife so he destroys the guy's violin and fires him on the spot.

* DistinctionWithoutADifference: A BadBoss is about to murder an employee. This exchange occurs.

* NotInFrontOfTheParrot: In the "Nos Amis Les Animaux" skit:

* TheDreaded: Bob Hartley is this, due to his [[DrillSergeantNasty Coach Nasty]] LargeHam speeches that chews out people who annoy him like vendors, [[EpicFail incompetent people]] or AcceptableTargets like politicians.

* AlwaysMurder: Columbo du Peuple sketches.

* AmbiguousRobot: Spock is turned into this in the ''Franchise/StarTrek'' parodies. In some sketches he's said to be Vulcan, in others he's apparently an android.

* NoBudget: In-universe, [=CDKC=] community radio is this.
* NothingExcitingEverHappensHere: The song "Saint-Néant" ("Néant" means void in French) takes this trope and runs away with it.
* NiceGuy: Jean-Charles is a recurring character who takes this trope to ridiculous levels, though in his [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness first appearance]] he was only nice to his coworkers and when he came home he had no problem telling his girlfriend to shut the fuck up, which was never brought up again.

--> '''Wife's last words''': What are you doing with that revolver, that knife, that rope, that poison bottle, that water-filler tub and that top of a cliff ?

--> '''Children show puppet:''' "You can drop the "acting adapted for children" because at 3 years old they're already watching Music/{{Rihanna}} clips while [[ADateWithRosiePalms playing in their Pull-Ups]]."

* [[CanadianEqualsHockeyFan (French) Canadian Equals Hockey Fan]]: François Pérusse is a big hockey fan, and hockey is a recurring theme in many of his sketches.
