Line 37:
* [[Animated Adaptation]]: ''[[Baggy Pants And The Nitwits]]'' featured among its cast animated versions of Gladys and Tyrone -- with ''super powers''.
* [[Call Back]]
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Oh boy, Tiny Tim. Goldie also vacillated between this trope and [[The Ditz]].
* [[Catch Phrase]]: Listed above.
Line 48 ⟶ 47:
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: Just about everything out of Dick's mouth.
* [[Handbag of Hurt]]: Wielded by Ruth Buzzi's Gladys Ormphby against Arte Johnson's Tyrone F. Horneigh.
* [[
* [[It Is Pronounced "Tro-PAY"]]: Arte Johnson's dirty old man, Tyrone F. Horneigh, insists his last name is pronounced "hor-NIGH".
* [[Laugh Track]]
Line 68:
{{quote|'''"Nixon":''' In 1969, I appeared on ''Laugh-In'' and said "Sock it to me. Sock it to me." Well, you can stop now!}}
* [[Running Gag]]
▲* [[The Seed Is Strong]]: The fabulous Farkle Family. Parents Frank and Fanny were both brunettes with good eyesight, but their dozen or so children were all freckled redheads with glasses -- just like "friend and trusted neighbor" Ferd Berfel. [[Played for Laughs]] in that Frank clearly never suspected Fanny of dallying with Ferd.
* [[Special Guest]]: Just about every star of the day, often popping up unannounced in the midst of sketches. Sammy Davis Jr was probably the most frequent, but Nixon was by far the best-known example.
* [[Subverted Kids Show]]: "Uncle Al".
