  • Accidental Innuendo: During one of the blooper reels, one of Richard's failed opening lines for the Toy Story 3 episode was "Fun Time in Andy's Room," which makes everyone else in the room groan and laugh.
  • Bizarro Episode:
    • The appropriately titled "???" episode, in which the crew's usual news broadcast gets cut short by an art collector, who somehow bought out their studio to turn it into an art house.
    • "The End of Youtube News" can also count, since it goes over what happens when a news broadcast ends, and the silly antics that ensue afterwords.
    • The episode "Caffeine," in which Richard and Matt come to work tired as all hell after marathoning the extended director's cut edition of the Lord of the Rings trilogy the previous night and are offered coffee as a means of waking them up.
  • Funny Moments:
    • During the Mother's Day episode, Matt accidentally uncorks a loud fart during a moment of silence, much to the ire of Richard. Then during the sign off at the end of the episode Matt accidentally lets a tiny one squeak out, to which Richard punches him, knocking him out of his chair. The best part of the latter exchange is the Oh, Crap! face Matt has right as the fart slips out.
    • Austin going into a hilariously long tangent about how Michael Bay sucks, which gets so emotional that even Richard is utterly shocked by his rant, giving a hilariously silent Jaw Drop.
    • The World War III episode, plus its bloopers. Richard wants to deliver some news that's so controversial that it would lead to WWIII. When Matt and the others step in to stop him, Dane comes in with a grocery bag and puts it over Richard's head while hilariously screaming "RICHARD I AM BAGGING YOUR HEAD!" In the bloopers, Dane fails multiple times at getting the bag properly over Richie's head, prompting Matt and the others to break down laughing.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: The episode "Richalvarez," in which the characters express their displeasure about how the aforementioned channel has not yet reached mainstream success on Youtube, becomes a lot harder to think about these days due to the fact that the channel has almost completely fallen off the radar with their most recent videos barely scraping past 1,000 views.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: Many fans' reaction to them switching from a simple backdrop to a green screened one
    • The new series (starting with 3DS) changed back with Richard and Matt lampshading this.
  • The Woobie: Weatherman Chris, who often gets talked down on by Richard for just wanting to deliver the weather report.
