3	----
4	!!Tropes:
5	* AdaptationalNameChange: Scrooge [=McDuck's=] name is changed to simply Ebeneezer, or ''Mr.'' Ebeneezer as Mickey calls him.
6	* AdaptationalVillainy:
7	** Goofy has become a drug addict prone to committing robberies and Donald Duck has become a legless cripple with a tendency to use violence to threaten Mickey into doing what he says.
8	** The ChristmasEpisode introduces a character named Ebeneezer, who is essentially the series' equivalent of Scrooge [=McDuck=]. Unlike Scrooge, Ebenezer is a pedophile who forces children to let him urinate on them for money, and one of the children he did this to was a younger Mickey. He basically makes even the greediest incarnations of Scrooge look like a saint in comparison.
9	* AffablyEvil: Goofy doesn't hesitate to threaten Mickey at gunpoint unless he forks over the money they stole yet, barely five seconds later, happily says goodbye like nothing happened.
10	* BlackComedy: First off, the series' premise is that Mickey's life is crappy enough that he has to work as a prostitute. Second of all, the events he's gone through include being pressured into using Daffy Duck's corpse to get money from his bank account by Goofy and Donald, having to work as a drug mule, and being drugged into playing a princess in a questionable movie.
11	* ButtMonkey: Mickey Mouse's life has taken an obvious turn for the worse in this series.
12	* CanonDiscontinuity: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQQ05R3rO7o The "Final Cut Film Fest" short]] was produced for a local film festival, and mentions from the beginning that is not a part of the series' main continuity.
13	* ComicSutra: The first short has Mickey inform Joe that he offers a Fantasia and a Steamboat Willie.
14	* ChristmasEpisode: The fifth short, where the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future mistake Mickey for Ebenezer, a parody of Scrooge [=McDuck=], and show him visions of a young Mickey being forced into letting Ebenezer urinate on him for money, an older Mickey attempting to commit suicide, and Ebenezer's grave. In the end, it turns out Mickey was only dreaming, but Ebenezer returns and demands Mickey to let him piss on him again. Fortunately for Mickey, Goofy then shoots and kills Ebenezer for his wallet.
15	* {{Crossover}}: Mickey has made a few appearances in ''[[WebAnimation/TacoMan Taco-Man Plays a Video Game]]'', most notably a guest spot in "Taco-Man Plays ''VideoGame/MickeyMousecapade''".
16	* DescentIntoAddiction: Mickey becomes addicted to heroin after Joe and Goofy constantly expose him to it throughout the filming of their movie.
17	* DepravedBisexual: Joe, Mickey's most common customer. He frequently makes advances towards Mickey even when he isn't doing prostitution work and in one short mentions that he has to pay child support, suggesting that he has had sex with a woman at least once. He also focuses on the need for princesses to have "great tits."
18	* DrugsAreBad:
19	** Goofy is shown to have become a heroin addict, and commits robberies in order to finance his addictions. He is also implied to take acid, cocaine and crystal meth, and at one point even asks Mickey for [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flintstones_Chewable_Vitamins Flintstones' Vitamins]].
20	** Mickey becomes addicted to heroin in Episode 6. Piglet is also unsubtly implied to be addicted as well in this episode.
21	* ExcrementStatement: When he sees a vision of Ebenezer's grave in the ChristmasEpisode, Mickey exacts his revenge against Ebenezer for abusing him as a child by pissing on the grave.
22	* FatIdiot:
23	** Minnie Mouse has become extremely obese, and when trying to remember Donald Duck's phone number, she asks what number has an O at the bottom. Mickey first guesses that she means 8, but after being told that it isn't, gets it right when he asks if she means 6.
24	** Joe is also shown to be larger than the average male, and falls for [[OfCorpseHesAlive Mickey's obvious impersonation of Daffy's corpse]].
25	* {{Foreshadowing}}: "Mickey Makes A Movie" has a RunningGag where Piglet walks up and injects Mickey with heroin, causing the latter to zone out. But the final time this happens at the premiere of their finished film, Goofy is the one administrating the drug to Mickey instead and Piglet is nowhere to be seen. When Mickey is later watching the film, it's revealed that Joe and Goofy made him ''shoot'' Piglet while filming a fight scene.
26	* FunnyBackgroundEvent:
27	** Loud gunshots can be heard in the background of several scenes.
28	** While Goofy and Donald are robbing Mickey in Episode 3, Minnie is shown watching TV just like the last episode.
29	** A small corpse marked [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird "Tweety"]] can be seen in the background of the morgue where the trio steal Daffy's body.
30	** In a case of BlackComedy, Mickey is sitting on the street edge in episode 6, where a wreath saying "RIP Pluto" is placed, implying that Mickey failed to get Pluto a new kidney. This can also double as a {{Tearjerker}}.
31	* MovieMakingMess: The final episode involves Goofy and Joe raising $900 to make a movie. After spending the first $500 on cocaine, they drug Mickey and perform breast augmentation surgery on him with help from [[WesternAnimation/TheManyAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh Piglet]]. Mickey becomes addicted to heroin since they drug him after every take, meaning he's barely conscious throughout most of the filming, allowing Joe to take advantage of him. At one point during filming, they dressed Piglet as the "dragon" and tied him to the ceiling, letting a heroin-influenced Mickey shoot him with a ''live'' pistol. By the time Mickey wakes up during the film, he, Goofy and Joe are the only ones present.
32	* {{Jerkass}}: Pretty much everyone except Mickey and Piglet.
33	** Daffy is implied to have been one in his life, as Mickey considers his death to be the first bit of good news he's heard in a long time.
34	** Ebeneezer is seen as this by all of the other characters. Foghorn claims he's got "more asshole about him than a pack mule in a whirlpool".
35	* KarmicDeath: Ebeneezer's favorite pastime is seeing what horrible things desperate people will do for money. He is shot dead while being mugged by Goofy.
36	* ParentalNeglect: Heavily implied with Joe. He mentions to Mickey in Episode 3 that he needs a steady job to pay child support, indicating that he has a family to provide for. Yet every other time we see Joe in the series, he's squandering his earnings on Mickey's "services" - apparently being a regular enough customer for the two to be on a FirstNameBasis - and in the sixth episode, he and Goofy raise nine hundred dollars for a misguided film project, only to then spend more than half of those funds on cocaine.
37	* MythologyGag:
38	** In the pilot, one of Mickey's "specials" is called a [[WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}} "Fantasian"]] and the other is called a "WesternAnimation/SteamboatWillie".
39	** Foghorn Leghorn appears in episode 4 as a business owner in a white shirt and red tie, referencing his appearance in ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow''. His personality here is also a [[{{Flanderization}} more extreme]] [[AdaptationalVillainy portrayal]] of his characterization on that show.
40	** [[YetAnotherChristmasCarol The Christmas Carol plot]] of the fifth episode shows Goofy as the first ghost that appears to Mickey, similar to Jacob Marley. Goofy was previously assigned the role of Marley in ''WesternAnimation/MickeysChristmasCarol''.
41	** In Episode 3, Daffy's body is kept at ''Ride/SpaceMountain Morgue''.
42	* OfCorpseHesAlive: The third short has Goofy and Donald manipulate Mickey into taking the corpse of Daffy Duck and working it like a puppet to get money out of his bank account.
43	* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: Ebenezer, who rationalizes forcing children to let him pay them to pee on them by saying that the best thing about being rich is seeing what desperate people will do for money.
44	* TakeThat: Several.
45	** Goofy asks Mickey if he wants to buy a Series/HannahMontana CD, and Mickey responds by angrily telling Goofy not to mention her in front of him again.
46	** In the third short, when Goofy explains to Mickey his plan of using Daffy Duck's corpse to get money from his bank account, he compares it to [[Film/WeekendAtBernies Weekend at Bernie's II]]. Mickey states that the movie sucks, while Goofy [[DamnedByAFoolsPraise says that he thought it was funny]].
47	** The general portrayal of the WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes characters continues the FandomRivalry between Disney and Warner Brothers.
48	** In the fourth short, Mickey complains about people wanting pop music and cheesy television shows instead of watching his adventures, a blatant jab at Creator/DisneyChannel and its perceived NetworkDecay. Referring to the stars of these shows as "those teenagers who [[BreakawayPopHit sing those awful songs"]] could also be a reference to Disney's animated films such as ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen\|2013}}'' and WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}, which have teenage female leads [[note]][[DawsonCasting Though played by older actresses]][[/note]] and have several [[BreakawayPopHit Breakaway Pop Hits]] such as ''Let It Go''.
49	** Mickey is wearing an [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Elsa costume]] while making the movie in Episode 6. He is even given breast implants to reference Elsa's reputation as a MsFanservice character.
50	* TemptingFate: In the Christmas episode, Ebeneezer sadistically contemplates the pleasure he gets from seeing what desperate people will do for money, seconds before Goofy mugs and kills him.
51	* ThrowTheDogABone: X-mas Special ends relatively well for Mickey.
52	* VisualPun: Mickey is playing a princess in the sixth episode. Joe is dressed as a Music/{{Prince}}.
