Line 42:
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]
* [[Half-Hour Comedy]]
* [[Hey, ItsIt's That Sound|Hey, It's That Sound!]]: A good number of them were used on some of [[Nickelodeon]]'s game shows (naturally, since they were also produced by MTV). For example:
** The "wrong answer" buzzer was used on ''[[Double Dare 1986|Double Dare]]'', among others.
** The siren used when time expired in the [[Bonus Round]] was used when the Brain Bender was solved on ''[[Think Fast (TV)|Think Fast]]''.
Line 55:
* [[Rule of Three]]: Three contestants.
* [[Scare Chord]]: Used in the first season (and shortly into the second) when at the beginning of the second round Ober said, "The points are doubled...and so is the ''danger''!"
* [[Shout -Out]]: '''Constantly''', to [[Game Show Host|game show hosts]], other shows, etc. Parodied on some episodes which were themed "salutes" to random objects.
* [[Signature Sound Effect]]: The "come and get it" signaling the Snack Break, and the bizarre air raid sirens signaling Off the Air.
* [[Special Guest]]: [[The Newlywed Game]] and [[Card Sharks]] host Bob Eubanks paid a visit to the show in season 2, ostensibly to give Ken some pointers on how to host. The episode is especially hilarious for when one of the contestants began heckling Bob ("You got your own show - let Ken do his business here!"), and [[What the Hell, Player?|Bob responds in kind]] ("Don't let your mouth write a check your butt can't cash!") The [[Speed Round]] then consisted of one word from a TV show's title being replaced with "Whoopie", and the contestants having to supply the correct word.
