Ugly Americans/YMMV

"Mark: I really wish I had that information before I turned into a girl.
 * Angst What Angst:
 * Despite being drugged by a cult and effectively raped by Maggotbone Sr. and the occasional night terrors she experiences, Callie's mom feels no ill will towards either party and is implied to have at least tried to pursue a relationship with Maggotbone before leaving to raise Callie (whom she adores) on her own.
 * This was retconned in "Callie's Little Sister" - turns out she was dating Frank Sinatra, and Mack (Callie's father) offered to impregnate her in exchange for her soul, and getting him out of his Arranged Marriage with Twayne's mother, Violet.
 * Early Installment Weirdness: Twain's Alpha Male personality in the first few episodes is a harsh juxtaposition with his later, more effeminate personality that grows stronger each episode.
 * Ensemble Darkhorse:
 * Leonard, definitely.
 * Doug. Started as just another person at Mark's workplace that cried once an episode. Then became Mark's assistant and now has an expanded backstory as
 * Evil Is Sexy:
 * Callie Maggotbone. She'll definitely show you her softer side.
 * Her sister Lilith counts as well, being arguably hotter than Callie. Or just the flaming eyes.
 * Fan Preferred Couple: Given the rampant amount of Ho Yay between them, Randall/Mark is pretty popular in fan-art.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: The Manbirds have developed a distinct and complex language built around American obscenities after a traveler taught them all how to swear. Funny enough on its own, but couple that with newsreports of wild parrots in Australia incorporating expletives in their calls (having learned them from domesticated parrots) and you have a textbook case of life imitates art.
 * Ho Yay
 * Extra Freaky Squicky version with Randall's secret desire to eat Mark. Added Necro Yay angle since Randall is a Zombie.
 * And don't forget when Mark is turned into Randall's ex-girlfriend--the one Randall went zombie for.

Randall: Well it might not be a total loss. You could make a long-time fantasy of mine come true."

"Randall: Well, I kinda wanted to the guy in this scenario... but yes!"
 * Another mark for Randall and Mark: "Your denial's really turning me on. Is that weird to say?"
 * Twayne with Leonard's nemesis in "Kill, Mark...Kill!"
 * The entire Randall/J9 sequence in "Soulsucker", culminating in Randall rubbing a hand over J9's crotch.
 * The Ho Yay between Randall and Mark is taken Up to Eleven in "Mummy Dearest", with their lease agreement becoming an analogy for marriage - to the point that Mark proposes at the end of the episode, and Randall hangs a pretty heavy Lampshade on it.


 * Nightmare Fuel:
 * Callie's giant demonic form. Not something you want to meet in a dark alley, or even a lit one.
 * Callie's demon form must be pretty tame compared to others since we don't even get to see the face of Lilith's demonic form--who is also about 10 times the size of Callie's.
 * Then there's the Larry King horde. BRR...
 * Paranoia Fuel: Clark Dungaree is watching you. No matter where you are. And he's making a new hit show about it.
 * Squick:
 * In "Pilot", a taxi driver of seemingly Jamaican decent complains to Mark about how his sister married a land whale. If we are to believe his sister is human, well... do with that what you will. Most of the series will probably embody this trope as well, as it comes from the same people who did Superjail.
 * The less mention of Twayne in a man-thong, the better. And those barbell nipple-rings. Ugh.
 * To some, that may be Fan Service, he is fit at least
 * Mark getting turned into a hot woman? Kinky. Having said hot woman's body go into a cursed rapid aging? Bad. Having to stop the curse by
 * Tear Jerker:
 * Albert, the teenaged Manbird Mark raised, singing "Oh Danny Boy" to his dying father... who rejects him immediately after.
 * The example below, in The Woobie.
 * The Woobie: Doug (Koala Man).
 * This has been all-but confirmed in "Wet Hot Demonic Summer" (if not Butt Monkey status). Even after making their escape (led by a panicked Doug who was digging out to avoid being eaten), Randall still wants to eat him... with everyone else just silently approving.
 * He gets even more Woobie points when its revealed . He also lives in a pet shop.
