** Everyman Charlie Collins, protagonist of the episode "Joker's Favor", had a very upbeat, grating leitmotif consisting of unusually cheery whistling and trombones blowing in a manner reminiscent of ''[[Leave It to Beaver]]''-esque, 1950's family sitcom background music.

* [[Limited Wardrobe]]: Honestly, you would think a rich guy like Bruce Wayne could afford more than one suit. In "Harley's Holiday" Bruce actually goes suit shopping with Veronica Vreeland, who points out that Bruce needs a better sense of style. Even one of the DVD commentaries joked about it.

* [[Literally Fearless]]: One episode, adapted from a post-Crisis comic, features Scarecrow unleashing a gas that removes fears and inhibitions from select victims. Batman gets dosed while investigating undercover, and loses the fears that normally hold him in check—including the fear of sticking to his code of [[Thou Shalt Not Kill]]. Tim Drake as Robin has to alternate keeping Batman from crossing the line and stopping Scarecrow to get the antidote.
* [[Little Black Dress]]: Loads of the socialites wore them.

* [[Out-of-Character Moment]]: When Harley captures Batman, hanging him upside down over a tank of piranhas, she lavishes at how the Joker will be pleased with her for capturing his greatest enemy. Next thing she knows, Batman was LAUGHING. Not just laughing, but laughing HARD. Harley notes that Batman NEVER laughs, and that it creeped her out. Batman stops and stoicly tells her why he's laughing and proceeds to reveal the truth about Joker to her (See "Is That What He Told You?" above).

* [[Out of Focus]]: Dick Grayson was originally a [[Recurring Character]], but after the first [[Retool]], he earned [[Regular Character]] status. The second Re Tool, however, made Batgirl a regular as well and added Tim Drake, so Grayson as Nightwing was [[Demoted to Extra|seen far less often]]. Regardless, he was still considered a Regular Character and treated as such by production. (Voice actor Loren Lester was consistently credited in the main cast, as opposed to with - say - recurring guest star [[Mark Hamill]]). [[Word of God]] flat-out admitted this trope as a blunder on their part.
