Line 28:
* [[Anything That Moves]]: Captain Hero, who doesn't even limit himself to that. In fact, he seems to [[I Love the Dead|prefer things that don't]].
** Also Foxxy, especially in ''Toot Goes Bollywood''.
* [[Arch Enemy]]: Hero and Xandir each have one. Xandir's is Lord Slashstab, a pastiche of Venger from the ''[[Dungeons
** Foxxy Love has had so many of her children taken away from her, she considers the woman from Child Services to be her arch nemesis.
*** Well, she has admitted to putting Foxxy's children in horrible foster homes.
Line 70:
* [[Chew Toy]]: Everyone, at one point or another.
* [[Citizenship Marriage]]: Spanky "gay marries" Xandir in order to obtain health insurance.
* [[Click. "Hello."]]: Parodied.
* [[Clip Show]]: Parodied twice; old clips were shown, but were overlaid with goofy/nonsensical captions.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Wooldoor.
Line 85:
* [[Contest Winner Cameo]]
* [[Cousin Oliver]]: Parodied with the character of Strawberry Sweetcake.
* [[
** Same deal with Clara's Octopussoir. It's mentioned in exactly two episodes, yet articles on the show speak of it like it's a vital part of her character.
* [[Crack Pairing]]: The show made a point of pairing every single character in every possible combination over the course of the show. Don't believe it? Pick two characters. Any two. Over the course of the show, these two will kiss, sleep together, have a relationship, or be [[Ship Tease|teased]] to Hell and back.
* [[Crapsack World]]
* [[
** Spanky and Ling-Ling in "Little Orphan Hero".
** Also Ling Ling in ''Foxxy vs. The Board of Education''.
** Toot as "Stan" in "A Very Special Drawn Together Afterschool Special".
* [[Cross-Dressing Voices]]: The male Ling-Ling is voiced by the female Abbey McBride. Also, whenever a young boy shows up, he's generally voiced by [[Tara Strong]].
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: The first half of Season Three, [[Seasonal Rot|much to the show's detriment]].
Line 125:
** Captain Hero is an expy of masculine superheroes, most notably [[Superman]].
** Clara' is an expy of [[Disney Princess|Disney princesses]], and is notably designed after Ariel from ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'' and Aurora from ''[[Sleeping Beauty (Disney film)|Sleeping Beauty]]''. Her naivety is a parody of Julie from ''[[The Real World]]: [[New Orleans]]'', a sheltered Mormon girl who still referred to black people as "colored" (though she got better over time).
** Foxxy is an expy of Valerie Brown from ''[[Josie and the Pussy Cats]]'', most prominently the 1960s cartoon version, who played in a band and occasionally solved mysteries.
** Ling-Ling is supposed to be Pikachu.
** Toot is an expy of [[Betty Boop]], right down to the monochrome.
** Wooldoor is obviously [[SpongeBob SquarePants]]. This was the only one that was actually disputed by the producers.
*** YMMV. He also wouldn't be out of place alongside ''[[Ren and Stimpy]]'' or another Spumco production.
** Xandir is based on Link from ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''.
Line 148:
* [[The Fun in Funeral]]: Two funerals are held in the show. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* [[Fun with Subtitles]]: Ling-Ling's subtitles are used as the basis for numerous gags.
* [[Funny Foreigner]]: Ling-Ling is a stereotype of Asian people, including mangling pronunciations of the few English words he speaks, talking primarily in [[Foreign Sounding Gibberish]], having stereotypical Asian sexual fetishes, and so on.
* [[Gasshole]]: Spanky. He even draws out a fart for a [[Overly Long Gag|''full minute'']] in one episode.
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: The Mexican dub has the profanity beeped out, but the beep is only short enough to cover a single letter (Ex: Pend*jo), making the cuss words painfully obvious.
Line 262:
[[Incredibly Lame Pun|"Semi Colon"!]] }}
* [[Pretty in Mink]]: Captain Hero buys a fur-trimmed coat after winning a bet with Spanky that he could get Clara's cousin Bleh to sleep with him. Later in the episode, Bleh is shown wearing an identical coat, having made a similar bet with one of her friends.
* [[Protagonist-Centered Morality]]: Done intentionally. The "heroes" are unrepentant sociopaths, and nobody ever denies it. That's part of the humor.
* [[Princess Classic]]: After her rebellious phase, Clara turns into a parody of this.
* [[Rapid-Fire Comedy]]
Line 305 ⟶ 306:
* [[Status Quo Is God]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] more than once.
* [[Staying Alive]]: Taken to a ridiculous degree. The cast even began [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshading]] it after a while.
* [[Sting (music)|Sting]]: Frequently.
* [[Stock Footage]]: There is a silent film scene of a wolfman creature that is heavily used, especially in "Drawn Together Babies" (to parody ''[[Muppet Babies]]''' usage of live action films).
* [[Take That]]: Against ''[[South Park]]'' in [[The Movie]].
