* ChristmasEpisode: Except the tenth season, which was not aired on Christmas time,[[note]]The episode about Literature/''AChristmasCarol'' was the closest it got, as all the secretaries wore Santa Claus hats and dresses with Christmas drawings during it.[[/note]] all the rest of the seasons had the tradition of containing at least one special episode dedicated to Christmas, usually on the week of Christmas Eve, sometimes also on New Year's Eve and the [[TheThreeWiseMen Wise Men Night]]. The particularity of these episodes was that, in contrast to the rest of the season, they were dedicated entirely to children, with children as contestants, all the audience made of children and the show, questions and prizes specially designed for children. This was a nod to the younger viewers, since demographic studies showed that the majority of viewers of the show were between 12 to 16 years old.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Oh sweet merciful gods... The programme was intended for families, but it could get really risqué at times. The secretaries' suits were infamously skimpy (which was [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] through and through by the negative characters). During the third season there was a recurring character called "La Loli" who was a prostitute. There were even at least two episodes dedicated to "eroticism", and one of them featured ''exposed breasts''. The show's cretor, Narciso Ibáñez Serrador, actually admitted that he strived to make the ninth season "whiter", because the eighth had been "too dirty".

* GrandFinale: Each season ended with a great amount of fanfare, with huge musical numbers, resolving any character arcs, and ending with a farewell speech by director Narciso Ibáñez Serrador. [[TearJerker tears are expected]] when secretaries say good-bye and the director puts some props from the show in a coffin to bury it down, an imagery that has become a classic of the show.

** In 1991, in the show dedicated to ''Gangsters'', fenomenal prizes were offered: three cars, 12.5 million pesetas (80,578.76 USD), 20 million pesetas (128,976 USD), an apartment by the sea in Villajoyosa, Alicante, a trip to Japan, a joint prize of 16 million pesetas (103,140.81 USD) and two cars, and one million pesetas (6,446.30 USD) offered by the host in exchange for the final prize. Contestants rejected all these prizes and kept the only booby prize that was offered that night: six orthopedic collars.

* CatchPhrase: Countless, although the most notable is possibly "Hasta aquí puedo leer" ("And I cannot read beyond this point"), which has found its way into day-to-day conversation among Spaniards. Other catchphrases include "Son amigos y residentes en Madrid" ("They're friends and reside in Madrid") when introducing contestants, "Han sido 7 respuestas acertadas a 25 pesetas cada una, 175 pesetas" ("It's 7 correct answers, being 25 pesetas each, that is 175 pesetas") and variations after each question, or "¡Campana y se ha acabao!"

* ExactWords: This trope often came into play during mini-games in the auction stage; as the contestants could ask any question they wanted and the host was not allowed to lie to them, but could withhold information from them. For example, there was a game that involved a lottery hype full of balls and the contestants could extract up to 6 balls, but the moment ball number 13 appeared, they would lose. After the contestants stopped playing before picking up the maximum six balls, the host explained to them that, indeed, if a ball with the number 13 had come out, they would had lost -- but there never was any ball with that number inside the hype.
