Line 13:
** The "[[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]" Parts of "The Aluminum Monster vs. Fatty Magoo".
* [[Dude, Not Funny]]: Happens a lot.
* [[Ear Worm]]: "Day ManDayman (aaah-uhhh), Fighter of the Night ManNightman (aaah-uhhh)".
** "Flip, flip, flip-a-delphia! Flip, flip, flip-a-delphia!"
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Rickety Crickets and Artemis. Dennis and Dee's biological dad also counts.
Line 33:
* [[Mary Sue]]: Averted. Though two of the writers play characters named after themselves, their characters are a complete departure from any [[Author Avatar]]. A third writer distances himself from his character by avoiding [[The Danza]].
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: [[Nightmare Fuel/It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia|It comes with the]] [[Black Comedy]].
* [[Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant]]: Charlie's song "Nightman" makes it sound like he [["It's Not Rape If You Enjoyed It"|wants to be raped]] by a burglar, but Charlie is baffled and offended by the accusation. When the song gets expanded into the musical ''in "The Nightman Cometh''", the cast assumes that practically everything in the musical is a metaphor for rape, which further infuriates Charlie.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: You wouldn't expect it on a show like this, but Charlie's face at the end of "Mac Bang's Dennis' Mom" pulls at the heartstrings.
* [[The Woobie]]: Charlie. He was a failed abortion attempt, grew up with an overprotective and clingy prostitute for a mother, while getting molested and raped by not one but ''two'' different men when he was a child. Besides Mac, his "friends" basically use him and treat him as a [[Butt Monkey]] to improve their own self esteem. His first and only sexual experience with a woman was implied to be traumatic for him. A slew of lifelong emotional and physical traumas may or may not have affected his mental and emotional functioning as an adult. If this wasn't a comedy, Charlie's story alone would make him a [[Tear Jerker]] character.
Line 40:
** RICKETY CRICKET.
