Line 19:
* [[Chain of Corrections]]: Mayor LaTrivia was subjected to these practically [[Once Per Episode|every episode]]. They'd usually involve him innocently using some figure of speech, which Fibber or Molly (or both) would either take too literally or otherwise misinterpret, sometimes on purpose. LaTrivia's subsequent attempts to clear things up would only create more confusion, making him increasingly flustered and confused and generally reducing him to [[Angrish|sputtering, incoherent rage]] by the time his visit was over.
* [[Constantly Curious]]: Teeny
* [[Cross -Dressing Voices]]: Beulah, a black woman, was played by Marlin Hurt, a Caucasian male actor. "Her" entrances often got a huge reaction from studio audiences, who were generally unaware of this before they saw it in person.
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]: Fibber often does this with his more obscure puns, invariably leading Molly to say, "T'ain't funny, McGee."
* [[During the War]]: Episodes during [[World War Two]] often dealt with the effects of the war on the civilian population. (In a positive, "we can get through this" manner.)
Line 35:
* [[Happily Married]]: Despite Fibber's foibles, which Molly had no illusions about, they were deeply in love.
* [[Henpecked Husband]]: Wallace Wimple
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Bill Thompson would use a variation of his Wallace Wimple voice for [[Tex Avery]]'s Droopy cartoons, as well as the White Rabbit in Disney's ''[[Alice in Wonderland (Disney)|Alice in Wonderland]]''.
** Doc Gamble was voiced by Arthur Q. Bryan, otherwise known as [[Looney Tunes|Elmer Fudd]].
** McGee himself, Jim Jordan, was Orville in ''[[The Rescuers]]''.
