* DeaderThanDisco: This was actually one of the most controversial shows of its time, which is no mean feat given that [[JerrySpringer The Jerry Springer Show]] was at the height of its infamy as well. Kids and teenagers loved his CloudCuckoolander UpToEleven style of humor, and their parents detested him. However, production of the show stopped for some time after Tom's bout with cancer, and Tom fell out of public favor after the infamous Film/FreddyGotFingered. By the time Tom resurfaced with a talk show, {{Jackass}} had taken over as the new big thing in shock humor, and now Tom is a strange footnote of TheNineties.
* FunnyAneurysmMoment: The line "My bum is on the cheese, my bum is on the cheese! / If I get lucky I might get a disease!" from "The Bum Bum Song" becomes a bit less humorous when you realize he ''did'' get a disease around that area [[hottip: *: Testicular cancer, for those who didn't know.]]. [[LampshadeHanging Tom couldn't resist pointing this out on the cancer special.]].
* IronWoobie: Poor Glenn took years of mockery on this show for no good reason other than Tom's own whimsy.
