  • Awesome Music: The title theme "Cupid Carries A Gun", sung by Marilyn Manson.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: According to series director Adam Simon, the show is enormously popular in Brazil, even though it isn't broadcast there.
  • Les Yay: Between Mary and Tituba, and Mary and Mercy, and the Countess and everyone considering she introduces herself by kissing them.
  • Narm:
    • If you're familiar with a Deleted Scene from Team America: World Police, then Rose accusing Alden and Mathers of being "puppets!" certainly comes across as this.
    • The Dark Lord. As Screener best sums it up, "It’s hard to take the impending threat of Hell on Earth seriously when you’re watching a 12-year-old boy profess inappropriate sexual desires for the woman who birthed him into this world."
  • Retroactive Recognition:
    • Gloriana (Azure Parsons) plays John Glenn's wife Annie in the ABC series The Astronaut Wives Club.
    • Oliver Bell (little John) appeared in Once Upon a Time as a young Killian Jones.
  • The Scrappy: Despite her sorry backstory, Mercy is generally considered obnoxious and annoying.
  • Too Cool to Live: Giles Corey, who knew that Mary killed her and John Alden's baby.
