* AbsurdlyLongWait: Parodied in The Chris Rock Show with a skit about "The Make You Wait Hair Salon", where due to various factors like overbooking and incredibly inattentive stylists, clients wait for so long some of them have actually died.
* AttackOfThePoliticalAd: During the US 2000 Presidential Election, the show aired the spoof "Mike Tyson for President" ads, which featured footage from Mike Tyson interviews [[AtLeastIAdmitIt admitting to things like being a convicted rapist]] and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking "a semi-good husband"]].
* BriefsBoasting: * When Music/{{Outkast}} was on the show in 2000, [[https://youtu.be/w4BjOOvIz1o Andre 3000 came out and performed in briefs, ski boots, and a rainbow pipe-cleaner cape]].

* DiscoDan: There was a fictitious TV movie called "Daddy Still Has a Flattop", about a black man, played by Creator/ChrisRock, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin who still wears an 80s flattop hairdo by the late 90s]], embarrassing his wife and son.
* GuyOnGuyIsHot: There was a skit where two men cross paths on the street and it looks like they're about to fight… and they make out instead. All you can hear from the audience is women {{squee}}ing. You can watch it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkbOtrTmS04 here]] (even if the end was just spoiled out of necessity).
* IWasQuiteAFashionVictim: In the first episode of ''Series/TheChrisRockShow'', Creator/ChrisRock claims he's actually the second Chris Rock, much like how [[TheOtherDarrin there were two Lionels on]] ''Series/TheJeffersons''. He shows a picture of "the original Chris", which is a picture of himself with [[EightiesHair a Jheri curl hairdo]].
