Line 28:
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: "Pampelmoose" is French for 'Grapefruit'. Lampshaded when Eric tastes some of Pampelmoose-turned-evil-plant and notes that it tastes 'Pampelmoosey, with a hint of citrus'.
* [[Bollywood Nerd]]: Maxum Man's Super Computer, Maxum Brain, has an Indian Accent.
* [[Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs]]: "A rooster? Rutabaga? ''A roostabaga?''"
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Eric
* [[Conveniently an Orphan]]: Eric is an orphan. He usually [[OrphansOrphan's Ordeal|brings it up]] every other episode.
* [[Can't Spit It Out]]: Or, more accurately, spits it out all the time. Kitty has a not-so-secret crush on Eric, and reveals it all the time, but whenever she gets a little too lovey-dovey, Eric asks "What?", with Kitty responding with her own "What?" If Eric is aware at all of Kitty's feelings, he doesn't show it and definitely does not return them.
* [[The Chew Toy]]: Eric
Line 47:
* [[The Eeyore]]: Eric has moments with this trope
* [[Even Evil Has Loved Ones]]: Mr. Troublemeyer/Master XOX tries constantly to be a good father. But Trevor makes it very hard to do so.
* [[Evil Parents Want Good Kids]]: Mr. Troublemeyer tries to keep Trevor from turning evil and even put him in the [[Super -Hero School|Sidekick Academy]] despite reacting in disgust when that school is even mentioned. Of course, Master XOX is always proud that Trevor inherited his evilness.
* [[Evil Teacher]]: Technically Professor Pampelmoose
* [[Expy]]: Eric is similar to [[The Ricky Gervais Show|the animated Karl Pilkington]]
Line 57:
* [[Genre Blindness]]: In "Endless Summer" Eric notices how Trevor's dad and Master XOX bear a striking resemblance to each other and how their RV is full of menacing inventions. He puts two and two together... and figures that the former is building the inventions for the latter.
* [[Gonk]]: Pampelmoose
* [[Gross -Out Show]]
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: Oh so very much.
* [[Heroes Want Redheads]]
Line 83:
* [[Sadist Teacher]]: Professor Pampelmoose
* [[Sanity Ball]]: Even ''Trevor'' gets thrown to this.
* [[Scooby -Dooby Doors]]
** Used in "Moustachesquatch" when the gang is chasing/being chased by the moustache monster. Rather than actual doors they use caves.
** Played straight in "House of Helmut", followed by Trevor running into a closed door, knocking down the whole wall, and [[Up to Eleven|having the others comes out of one of the knocked down doors]].
Line 106:
** "The dust bunnies are starting to multiply". Cut to a scene of bunnies doing multiplication on a chalk board.
** Splitsboro's good and evil sides are separated by a railroad, meaning that the people who live on the evil side are literally born on the wrong side of the tracks.
* [[With Friends Like These...]]: Trevor for Eric and Vana for Kitty.
* [[World Gone Mad]]: Splitsboro
