* HarsherInHindsight: The title sequence to ''Curse'' depicts Clifton Sleigh as an InvisibleMan. Not only was Sleigh's lack of presence compared to Clouseau one of the biggest criticisms of the film, but actor Ted Wass rapidly sank away into obscurity afterwards, and nowadays is better known as a director than for anything from his acting career. On the bright side, Ted Wass claimed he never wanted to be an actor in the first place, as directing was always his main interest; in fact, when he was cast in the series ''Blossom'', one of the stipulations in his contract was that he'd be allowed to direct some episodes so he could jump start that career.

* TearJerker: "Pink Daddy": A stork mistakenly delivers a baby crocodile to the Pink Panther's home. Despite all the difficulties it causes him, he does his best to raise it, only for it to eventually run off and find its real parents. Rather than be relieved, the poor panther anxiously tries to reclaim it. As the stork arrives to clear things up, the child finally reunites with its tearfully happy mother. The rejected panther's angry reaction does little to hide that he has been terribly hurt. The stork watches and silently shares his pity with the viewers.

*** The original 1963 film illustrates this very well, ironically. People who watch the original film, [[EnsembleDarkhorse expecting it to be about Clouseau]], are typically disappointed that it is a largely-forgettable '60s caper with a VillainProtagonist trying to seduce a princess and everyone else spending most of the running time discussing sex. Clouseau shows up for maybe a third of the film, and the scenes without him ''drag''.

* GeniusBonus: In ''Pink at First Sight,'' Pink Panther lip-syncs to an opera song to impress the owner of the delivery service. The song in question is "Vesti la giubba" from ''Theatre/{{Pagliacci}}'', in which Canio, a clown, sings about his depression over his wife cheating on him. Pink Panther is also a usually-comical figure who is feeling depressed due to love-related issues (though in this case, it's that he doesn't have someone to love at all.)

* TheWoobie: ''Pink at First Sight'' is one of the few times Pink Panther ever seems depressed, and boy, does it hit hard. You can feel his misery at the beginning when he walks past all the happy couples on Valentine's Day, while he's seemingly the only one alone. Then there's that shot of him sitting on his bed in a dark, dingy apartment...
