Line 28:
** ''[[The Matrix]]'' (even a parody from ''[[The Animatrix]]'');
** ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]''
** ''[[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]]''
** ''[[Alien]]''
** ''[[Jurassic Park]]''
Line 67:
* [[Badass Boast]]: There are quite a few, in particular {{spoiler|Negative Numbah 86's}} epic line in "Operation: P.O.O.L.":
{{quote|"In the name of the One Supreme Ultra DNK Leader, Welcome... ''to the worst day of your lives.''"}}
* [[Badass Santa]]: Santa is an obvious parody of Professor Charles Xavier here, and he has a team of elves who parody the [[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]].
* [[Badass Family]] / [[Big Screwed-Up Family]]: The Unos, so very much. On one side, {{spoiler|we have Nigel's father, the original Numbuh Zero, who in his youth started a new age of K.N.D. The last episode also reveals his mother was the first female operative}}. On the other side, though, {{spoiler|Father is Numbuh Zero's brother and thus Nigel's uncle, and ''their'' father is the aptly named Grandfather, who is ten times worse then Father. Add in the Delightfuls (missing KND operatives turned permanently evil) as Father's adopted children... and there you go}}.
* [[The Bad Guy Wins]]: As noted above, definitely present.
Line 235:
** For example, {{spoiler|Chester being trapped in his own [[Lotus Eater Machine]]}}.
* [[Homage]]: Many separate occasions; their parodies of ''[[Star Wars]]'' border on ripping it off and ''[[The Matrix]]'' homages don't even pretend otherwise.
** "Operation N.A.U.G.H.T.Y.", the [[Christmas Episode]], is presented in American Comic Format. It includes a group of Santa helpers which [[Expy|Expies]] the [[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]] <ref>(They have one Wolverine, one [[Night Crawler]], one Angel and one Colossus)</ref>, a group of enemies that [[Expy|Expies]] the [[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]], a Machine that resambles "the Cerebro" and [[spoiler:Numbuh Three turns crazilly overpowered and evil, only to be stopped by Numbuh Four, à la ''[[{{Film/X-Men|X-Men 3]]''.
* [[Hourglass Plot]]: "Operation: T.R.E.A.T.Y." between Numbuh One and Chad. To hammer the point home, the dominant color of their clothing in the [[Flash Back]] (Blue for One, Red for Chad) is the opposite of their clothing in the present (Red for One, Blue for Chad) {{spoiler|and Numbuh One beats Chad by using the same technique Chad beat him with in the flashback.}}
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: H.I.P.P.Y.-H.O.P., and [[Author Appeal|many, many others]], made of everything from lawn chairs to treehouses to ''cats''.
