Line 24:
** Art The Repairman also qualifies, having first appeared in Season One, continuing to appear up through the [[Grand Finale]]. In the time between, he had an entire episode devoted to his efforts to woo Christine, gave away the bride at Bull's wedding and eventually began dating Bull's mother.
* [[Ashes to Crashes]]: A man named Herb dies, and his two daughters get into a fight over his ashes, ending up in Harry's court. They eventually resolve their differences and agree to stand by whatever arrangement Harry decides upon. Herb's cremains are left at court, in Harry's office, leading to the following dialog:

'''Harry:''' Art, this wasn't herb tea! [[Incredibly Lame Pun|This was Herb!]] }}
* [[As Himself]]: Mel Tormé, a couple of times.
Line 180:
* [[Mr. Vice Guy]]: Dan Fielding. Lech, pervert, he-slut--but also a man who cares about his friends and the law.
** And also surprisingly health conscious. He always carries latex gloves and condoms in his briefcase, and once has a key prosecution witness who wanted to be all over him but was rebuked thusly:

* [[My Own Private I Do]]: Two examples.
** Christine and Tony were married in an improvised ceremony in an Italian restaurant the night before Tony was due to go overseas for a DEA operation.
Line 204:
** Oddly averted in later seasons, when Bull has to be reassured by Roz that Santa is real, after Dan says that the last words he spoke to his younger sister two decades earlier were "There is no Santa."
** Then there was Bull's reaction after Harry used anatomically correct paper dolls, scissors and a stapler to explain how Dan's best friend as a boy had become a woman.

'''Bull:''' What about the Easter Bunny? }}
* [[Reality Subtext]]: "Flo's Retirement" was a fitting sendoff for Florence Halop, who was dying of breast cancer. And she ''still'' managed to finish out the season.
Line 245:
** Michael J. Fox in the first season's Christmas episode.
* [[Squick]]: The episode with the cockroach infestation. At one point the characters discover they've wandered into a carpet of dead roaches.

* [[Status Quo Is God]]: The show did follow the standard [[Sitcom]] mold of having everything go back to normal, if not by the end of the episode, than almost always before the end of the season.
** Most of the cast's romantic relationships were short-lived and didn't last long. Even Christine's marriage ended part-way through the following season and Harry's longest-lasting relationship was only half a season.
