* NarrowedItDownToTheGuyIRecognise: Neatly played with. You will recognise most of the cast from something or other... however, the repertory nature of the cast means that the actor who played the murderer last week might be the victim this week and then might just be some schlub who turns up for a few minutes the next week, so it's not quite that easy to determine who did it based on this. Furthermore, when a notable outside guest star did appear, they were usually cast as the ''victim''.

* UniversalAdaptorCast: Because the show utilized a repertory cast system, an actor not part of the Wolfe household or the recurring cops could go from playing a pivotal role in one episode to having a blink-and-you-miss-it bit part in the next.

* ComicBookTime: A rare TV example. The episodes are set in roughly the same period as the novels and stories they were based on were published in while the characters, as in the original stories, always remained the same age. This meant that the series might be set in the early 1960s one week and in the 1940s the next, with Wolfe, Archie and the other recurring characters never ageing. This is often quite subtle, with an eagle-eyed viewer only able to tell through the fashions, cars and music roughly when it's set. Furthermore, Wolfe himself never really changes his fashion, which is usually a fairly conventional man's suit with a yellow shirt and tie, giving him a timeless quality.

* HeroicBSOD: After a woman is murdered with his own necktie in his office in "Eeny Meeny Murder Moe", Wolfe spends much of the episode unusually flustered and unfocussed, attributing it to "a pimple on the brain" he has developed due to his sheer rage at the insolence of the murderer.

Wolfe reacts to Archie's news that he's overdrawn at the bank with barely a flicker of interest. A minor change to preparation of his favourite meal, however, sets Wolfe raging.
