The rest of the tropes are on this page.

N-S
""Gang's all here! Cally! Hobbo! Ando and Vermin!""
 * Never Split the Party: For an extremely brief time in "Pranking the Ghosts".
 * New Job Episode: "Help Wanted", even though Calvin is far too young for a job.
 * New Year Has Come: "New Year, New Disasters"
 * New Years Resolution: "New Year, New Disasters": Calvin's is to upgrade his inventions, Hobbes' is to break the current tuna-eating record, Socrates' is to prank four million people, Sherman's is to invent something useful, and finally Andy's is to pay Calvin's bond should he land in jail.
 * The Nicknamer: Socrates. This line from "New Year, New Disasters" sums it up best:

""You know what's going to happen, and I know what's going to happen.""
 * Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: "Tornado Sharks", Calvin's idea for a movie.
 * In that same episode ("Wild Movie"), Socrates' ideas for improving Calvin's ''Stupendous Man" movie includes adding several ninjas and martians.
 * No Fourth Wall: Aside from all the Medium Awareness, there's "The Night of the Living Television": After Calvin leaves to test his newest invention, Hobbes turns to the audience and says:

""I have 1,200 words per minute.""
 * Socrates turns to the audience to lampshade his Rapid Fire Typing in "Personality Test":

"(to audience) "It's amazing what you find when you just clam up.""
 * After Calvin finds Hobbes curled up in the water heater in "Pranking the Ghosts":

""I always figured you Brainstorms lost your vocal cords generations ago, and they were replaced with air horns.""
 * No Holds Barred Beatdown: "Calvin, Hobbes, and The Pilgrims": After Socrates releases several turkeys on the streets, Calvin beats him to a pulp.
 * No Indoor Voice: The Brainstorm family. Lampshaded by Jack:

"Andy: "Let's see… Iodine, band-aids, gauze, bullwhip, small strait-jacket, helmet, pan, shampoo, gloves, tranquilizer, chloroform, tennis racquet, ice cubes, banana peel, cage, snare trap, baloney, modem…""
 * Calvin in "Personality Test", complaining about anything and everything that crosses his path for several days.
 * He does it again (though slightly nuanced) in "Pharaoh Andrew".
 * It comes to a head in "Hear My Voice", when, in upgrading the Scream Horn, he has to scream into it constantly. It results in laryngitis.
 * Noodle Implements: In "Sherman Goes to the Vet":

"Sheila: Now what are you doing? You aren't abandoning me like you did in 1987, ARE YOU?"
 * Noodle Incident: Aside from the Trope Namer, "Camp Blues" references a "soda can incident".
 * And "Chaos to My Ears" does likewise for a "peanut butter incident".
 * This bit from "The Alien Huntress" certainly implies something:

"Hobbes: How much cluck could a good duck cluck if a good duck could cluck good?

 * Sherman attempts to keep a rabbit he names "Mr. Wiggles" in "Let Us Prank The Fool".
 * Not the Fall That Kills You: Outright quoted by Holographic Retro in "The Genius Hamster".
 * Obviously Evil: Dr. Brainstorm. His appearance and name are suspicious, people routinely witness him and/or Jack exiting his hidden lair, and he always shouts.
 * Odd Couple: Most of the characters fit this: Calvin and Hobbes, Andy and Sherman, even Dr Brainstorm and Jack become this when they're not out to rule the world.
 * Oddly Named Sequel 2 Electric Boogaloo: Parodied; the in-universe sequel to The Incredible Hulk has the subtitle "Electric Boogaloo".
 * Offstage Villainy:
 * Oh Crap: Dr. Brainstorm and Jack upon getting a recording from Thunderstorm.
 * Only Sane Man: Usually Andy and Jack.
 * OOC Is Serious Business: Dad actually tries not to get Calvin in band class in "Chaos to My Ears".
 * Lampshaded in "Sherman Goes to the Vet":

Andy: Hmm, your dialect is crumbling. You're nervous alright."

"Socrates: It's Andy and Sherman. I'm at their house right now. They're just sitting at the TV doing nothing!
 * After meeting the main cast's future selves in "RIP Calvin", Sherman actually hugs Calvin.
 * Dr. Brainstorm and Sheila drop their No Indoor Voice act when confronted by their mother.
 * From "Electronic Invasion":

Hobbes: Isn't that what Andy usually does?

Socrates: Yes, but this time, there's no video game! And Sherman hasn't insulted me in over fifteen minutes! I'm beginning to worry!

Hobbes: You show worry for somebody else? Goodness, Socrates! This must be serious!"

""OKAY! DOES ANYONE ELSE WANNA TRY AND STOP ME? BECAUSE THIS IS GETTING REALLY OLD!""
 * Also lampshaded in "Robot's Day Out": after Jack abruptly stands upright and leaves, Dr. Brainstorm asks if he's turned evil again.
 * See Oh Crap for yet another example with Jack.
 * Hobbes is the first one to pick up a weapon during the climax of "Thunderstorm". Needless to say, it's on.

 * Open Says Me: Calvin's mom kicks her son's door down in "Robot's Day Out".
 * Original Character: Andy, Sherman, Dr. Brainstorm and Jack...
 * Our Time Machine Is Different: Calvin's is still a cardboard box; Sherman's is made from a washing machine.
 * Out of Genre Experience: "Tracer Bullet in Color!" is an Affectionate Parody of the Film Noir genre.

Hobbes: Who's up for the What About Bob movie!

 * Punch Clock Villain: Jack, who regularly chats with the heroes and doesn't really care much for Dr. Brainstorm's schemes.

"Sebboh: It's still burning."

""He/I should have read the manul [sic].""
 * Played straight with Jack's evil form in "62 Percent More Evil".
 * Red Oni Blue Oni: Dr. Brainstorm and Jack, respectively.
 * Read the Freaking Manual: Almost used by name on two separate occasions in "Super Calvin".

""Alright, Calvin! I've gone over that manul [sic], and now I'm all ready for you and your precious little powers! GIVE ME YOUR WORST!""
 * This also sets up a Brick Joke: after Calvin stops making the machine that sets up the plot, Dr. Brainstorm barges in:

""All MTM ever did was try to help us. He always fired his lasers on time, and he always tried to lighten the mood. And what did you do during all those adventures? You were always running off. You were always hiding. You never helped us. What happened when we were attacked by a monster under my bed? You ran off. What happened when Socrates and I were attacked by a mountain lion? You ignored us. What happened when we were all trapped by that ghost? You deserted us. What happened when Socrates was lost and cornered by two bears? You feigned injury and made me do all the work, AND I DON'T EVEN LIKE SOCRATES! YOU STAND HERE COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW USELESS MY INVENTIONS ARE, WHEN IN REALITY, YOU'RE THE USELESS ONE! I DON'T KNOW WHY I BOTHER WITH YOU! I SHOULD'VE KICKED YOU OUT ON SORRY FURRY BUTT YEARS AGO!""
 * The Reason You Suck Speech: Near the end of "Thunderstorm", Hobbes mocks the recently deceased MTM as being useless, and Calvin replies as follows:

"Andy: (describing all the times Socrates has been injured) Well, let's see. Your voice has been switched into that of a duck's, you've been electrocuted by the MTM, you've been trapped in the hypercube, a transmitter has been inserted into you, you've been ejected into the clou...
 * Reed Richards Is Useless: Calvin uses his inventions for things like duplicating a pizza.
 * Repeating So the Audience Can Hear: Hobbes does this in "Personality Test" when on the phone with Socrates.
 * Repeat What You Just Said: From "Personality Test":

Socrates: Wait a minute, what was that last one?

Andy: Uhhh... electrocuted by the MTM?"

"Calvin: (after a Self Destruct Mechanism fails to go off) So there you have it. If Brainstorm wanted the place to blow up, it wouldn't blow up. If he didn't want it to blow up, it would blow up. It's called "Brainstorm psychology"."
 * The Reveal:
 * Reverse Psychology: Dr. Brainstorm's Servant Ray only works when told to do the opposite of what he wants it to do.
 * This is lampshaded in a completely unrelated incident in "Electronic Invasion":

"Calvin: Yeah right, and we've been getting "your" and "you're" switched on this show all the time as well."

 * Sarcasm Mode: Lampshaded by Tracer in "The Five Calvins":

""IT'S DOCTOR BRAINSTORM!""
 * Say My Name: Played for Laughs with Frank Brainstorm.

""She'd keep us there all day and all night! We'd have to sleep in sleeping bags on the classroom floor, and be waken up by a drill sergeant at three in the morning to do laps around the school! She'd have us wear horrible itchy uniforms and ban recess! Homework would double! No, TRIPLE!""
 * In "Thunderstorm", one of these manages to knock Jack off his feet.

 * Serial Escalation: Season One ends with Calvin in a whodunnit-type episode. Season Two ends with a Stupid Evil woman trying to cut his head off with a chainsaw.
