* HilariousInHindsight:
** As if Helen hating on Shampagne wasn't already funny enough, the fact that Helen's [[Creator/DaveedDiggs voice actor]] later released a song called "Puppy for Hanukkah" makes it ''hysterical.''
** In "Garbage Ballet", Cole calls Paige a witch for getting him sick from her cold. Paige's [[Creator/KathrynHahn voice actress]] would be later called this again in ''Series/WandaVision'' but for a different reason.
*** In "Central Dark", while playing a board game (called ''Salem Witch Hunt'', no less!), Paige has to defend herself when she's the first person accused of being a witch. Given Creator/KathrynHahn's role on ''Series/WandaVision'', it almost seems intentional.

* WTHCastingAgency: Loren Bouchard has gained somewhat of a rep for his non-traditional casting on his animated shows (on ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'', male voice actors voice both the mother and the elder daughter, among others), but many people expressed unease when it was announced that the very Caucasian Creator/KristenBell and the very Black Creator/TitussBurgess would be playing biracial children. In June 2020, in the wake of renewed heated debates on racism in America, it was announced that Bell would no longer voice Molly (being replaced by Emmy Raver-Lampman) and has now switched to voicing Paige's younger sister, Abby.

* HoYay: A few moments between Birdie and Owen can make it seem like Birdie has a crush on Owen. This includes a few moments in "Hot Oven" where Birdie mistakes Owen calling the pizza "baby" for him calling him "baby" and saying he likes when Owen does that, calling Owen "my little pepperoni", and commenting that Owen's "cute when he's nervous" in ''Hat Luncheon.''

** "Castle Sweet Castle" has him with a sweet duet with Elwood, "You Are the Music" where they endlessly sing praises to each other's music skills to the point of forgetting they were supposed to teach the Tillerman kids how to play music.

* AssPull: In "The Lyin' in Winter", Bitsy came very to close to buying Central Park and has enough investors to help her buy it, but the thing that ruined her plan is [[spoiler: her brother, Ambrose, backing the investors and if the park deal does go through, Bitsy would get the park, but she would have lost her hotel to Ambrose who only wants the hotel to spite Bitsy]]. While it does seem like something he would do, this twist came out of nowhere with no foreshadowing to back it up and the last time we saw him was twelve episodes ago.

* WhatAnIdiot:
** Griffin, despite knowing his job as narrator will be over if Owen and Cole die, does nothing to help. Rightly, he gets fired for this.
** In "Down to the Underwire", Bitsy, in her rematch with Roberta [=McCullough=], attempts to cheat in the ''exact'' same way she did when they were children. Roberta, of course knowing that Bitsy cheated previously, knows to avoid Bitsy's foot and wins the race.

* MagnificentBastard: "[[Recap/CentralParkS2E06TheShadow The Shadow]]": [[InspectorJavert Hank Zevansky]] was a cop investigating a string of jewelry thefts in The Brandenham hotel committing by the [[PhantomThief The Shadow]]. Witnessing a young [[BigBad Bitsy Brandenham]] steal, Hank becomes suspicious of Bitsy and orchestrates his own jewelry theft years later, copying The Shadow's MO. Eventually tricking Bitsy into confessing that she was the thief, Hank leaves her alone out of respect for Bitsy's skills, while Bitsy appreciates Hank for being among the first to recognize her.

* CatharsisFactor: Due to his insufferable attitude and willingness to let Owen and Cole get hurt, seeing Griffin get fired is utterly satisfying almost as much as seeing the lovable Birdie get his job back.
