Line 278:
* [[It Will Never Catch On]]: Al's first show with his band was opening for Missing Persons. It was a disaster, with people booing them offstage and Al wondering if he should give up music.
* [[Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique]]: [[Played for Laughs]] (obviously) in "Party in the C.I.A."
* [[Jaywalking Will Ruin Your Life]]: "Don't Download This Song"▼
* [[Jumping the Shark]]: [[In-Universe|A line in "Couch Potato"]] says that ''[[King of Queens]]'' did this. In the first minute.

Line 301 ⟶ 300:
** "Party in the CIA"
* [[Major Injury Underreaction]]: In "A Complicated Song", he is merely frustrated about being beheaded.
* [[Manipulative Editing]]: ''Al TV''{{'}}s fake interviews, where Al adds weird questions to a famous person's answers ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIaO7sRjyxw original]/[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPwBdnknGIs edited]). And sometimes, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lepM8VCGN7c the interviewee acts weird enough to help!].
* [[Memetic Badass]]: [[In-Universe|In-song]] example -- [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLnapb-30hA Charles Nelson Reilly].
* [[Memetic Outfit]]: Earlier in his career, there was a particular pair of horrendously ugly pants given to Al that he wore at every concert (which can be seen on his first album cover). He eventually ditched them. Later, he was known for his large collection of Hawaiian-print shirts and Vans sneakers. He still pulls these out, though not as frequently.
