Line 9:
* [[Bonus Round]]: ''La Reoca'', in which a player had one week to complete a final mission outside the studio to win the car.
* [[Bonus Space]]: Landing on an ''Oca'' (goose) allowed you to move to the next ''Oca'' and [[Extra Turn|roll again]].
* [[Carried Byby the Host]]: Season 1 was hosted and directed by Spanish personality Emilio Aragón. When they changed the hosts (and nearly everyone else) for Season 2, the show lost popularity.
* [[Consolation Prize]]: None were mentioned until the tournament semifinals, where the losers had to complete a ''[[Bonus Round|Reoca]]'' to win one. Losing tournament finalists each won a motorcycle.
* [[Home Game]]: Inverted; the board game was invented first.
Line 63:
* [[Don't Try This At Home]]: Natch.
* [[Expository Theme Tune]]: The lyrics are an invitation for you as the viewer to come play the game yourself if you are brave and "feel like [[Superman]]''.
* [[Everything's Better Withwith Cows]]: A two-person cow appeared onstage whenever milk was the mission sponsor.
* [[Fan Service]]: Pretty much ''any'' supporting cast member.
* [[Fan Disservice]]: ''La fea besucona'' ("the ugly kissing lady") and her male counterpart ''el mimoso pringoso'' ("the greasy lover").
Line 75:
* [[Minigame Game]]: Consisted of ''pruebas'' in three or four different forms: those that appeared every show and were assigned a specific space (the wall, chopping watermelons, and the "punishment" spaces, to name a few, although this did not mean they were actually played every episode); those that appeared regularly but were not assigned a space (most notably ''"Beso y tortazo"'', the "kiss or slap" game); those that appeared only a handful of times throughout the run; and those that were only played once.
* [[Recursive Import]]: The show originated in Italy as ''Il grande gioco dell' oca''. The Spanish version was the first to use a barber (an idea of Emilio's). The next season in Italy, they had a barber.
* [[Rule of Three]]: You were asked three questions on the haircut space, the third of which was [[Unwinnable Byby Design|always impossible]] to answer.
* [[Running Gag]]: Many, but Alberto Murroni (the knife thrower) asking to close the stage gates (to avoid potentially dangerous wind interference) became one of the most recognizable.
* [[Sampling]]: The end of the [[Theme Tune]] and the cut-to-commercial music both sample the opening bar of "Stars and Stripes Forever".
Line 83:
* [[The Thunderdome]]: The cage near the end of the board.
* [[Troperrific]]: The show used so many and to such an extent that it was almost (if not directly) an invitation for contestants to test their skills against the raw elements of every movie and TV show ever produced.
* [[Unwinnable Byby Design]]: The aforementioned barber's space, as well as a challenge in which a contestant had to wager money that a professional magician would ''not'' successfully perform an everyday sleight-of-hand trick.
