* CatchThatPigeon: The basic plot is about the Blue racer attempting to catch and eat the Japanese Beetle.



* RoadRunnerVsCoyote: Interestingly its the hunter (a snake) who is the super fast one but this is still not enough for significantly more intelligent prey (a beetle) who can do karate chops.
* SmallNameBigEgo: The Blue Racer has an impressive name that only literally corresponds to reality given that he may be very fast, but he is a failure in both his hunting and his family ways. It doesn't do a thing to diminish his smug attitude about being a great hunter though.
* SpinOff: The characters spun off from ''TijuanaToads''.

* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: The Racer has the not-so-sympathetic motivation of trying to eat the Japanese Beetle and devoting time and effort into it, while being otherwise a dead-beat husband and father.
* VillainProtagonist: Devouring a very polite, (more) intelligent, fellow animal out of egotism is the whole aim of the series and establishes the Blue Racer as a villain.

1. This cartoon predated House of Mouse by several decades. 2. Gepetto wasn't created for House of Mouse and originated from Disney's adaptation of Pinocchio. 3. A character can only be an Expy if they're clearly intended as a pastiche of another character. From what I understand, the Japanese Beetle and Gepetto have nothing in common at all.


* {{Expy}}: The Japanese Beetle is very similar to [[Disney/{{Pinocchio}} Gepetto]] as he appears in ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse''.
