Line 2:
* [[Crosses the Line Twice]]: The way Ponce de Leon dies. It involves lots and lots of litter. And so much blood.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Van Gogh. After the first episode he only ever appeared in cameos, but it's not hard to find fanart of him.
* [[Fountain of Memes]]: JFK is the most quotable character.
* [[Fridge Horror]]: Why would the secret board of shadowy directors clone Hitler?
** Hey, the guy was a [[Complete Monster]], but he was also an extremely charismatic leader, which seems to be something the board would want to harness...
** With how the other clones turned out, he was likely a tireless worker for world peace and equality.
Line 16 ⟶ 17:
* [[Americans Hate Tingle|Indians Hate Gandhi]], and [[Irony|I never thought I'd say that.]]
** More specifically, Indians dislike the portrayal of Mahatma Gandhi in this show as a shallow, petty individual who easily caves to peer pressure and shallow whims. However, it's wholly justified due to Clone!Gandhi caving under the pressure to be the perfect paragon that the original Gandhi was. This is the main theme of the show.
* [[Ho Yay]]: Well, JFK's foster-parents ''are'' a gay couple, plus there's JFK's crush on [[Sweet on Polly Oliver|"John Dark"]]. And his best friend forever Ponce in episode 10, complete with break-up and
** Most [[Ho Yay]] of all, Gandhi's kiss with Abe in the episode "A.D.D.: The Last 'D' is for Disorder". [[Played for Laughs]], but Gandhi still payed him for it, implying he liked it. Or he's stupid.
** Let's not forgot when Joan dressed up as a guy named John, and Cleo's attention.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: '''[[Skyward Scream|STAMOOOOOOOS!]]'''
** SAY WHAT?
Line 28 ⟶ 30:
** Did you see the pool? THEY FLIPPED THE BITCH!
** ...Wesley.
** Nothing bad ever happens to the Kennedys!
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]:
** Manson ''ripping his own chest open.''
Line 33 ⟶ 36:
** Abe constantly slicing his mouth open in the [[You Mean "Xmas"|Snowflake Day]] special.
** Nostradamus's attempt at asking Helen of Troy to the prom... by bursting out of a horse's chest and holding up a horse fetus which actually asks her for him.
* [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]: In one episode, Joan disguises herself as a guy named John with just a fake mustache. How did the other clones, including Abe, caught that right away?
* [[Tear Jerker]]: ''Litter Kills; Literally''. Half of the episode is just JFK in mourning over Ponce's death. The last shot is also quite poignant.
** The finale.
* [[This Is Your Premise on Drugs]]: Used for a joke
{{quote|Smoking raisins is like LSD... on acid!}}
* [[Unacceptable Targets]]: The show's portrayal of Gandhi has caused an uproar from Indians.
