Line 26:
** And his father, Jack Hammer.
* [[Ax Crazy]]: Arguably Hammer himself, although it was often [[Bowdlerise|Bowdlerised]] for comedic effect.
** Important to note is that he never
*** Presumably he did at least kill the guy on top of the building that he imploded
* [[Beard of Sorrow]]: Sledge starts showing up to work looking
* [[Bench Breaker]]: Doreau does this accidentally in "Wild About Hammer". The villain for that episode ties her to a chair. Sledge manages to untie her ankles from the chair before he's attacked. While those two are fighting, Doreau manges manages to stand herself up on her now freed legs, only to trip, fall over backwards, break the chair, and free herself from the rest of the rope.
* [[Berserk Button]]: Sledge reacts... badly to being called a wuss.
Line 51:
** In the pilot, he ends a shootout by destroying the building the shooter is on with a rocket launcher.
* [[Donut Mess with a Cop]]: Mocked by Sledge.
{{quote|"I would like to address that particular stereotype if I may. Now, your stereotypical donut is nothing but dough and sugar fried in fat, am I right? Now that fat gums up your arteries and goes to your brain, and you turn liberal. And the next thing you know, Barry Manilow is on the turn-table and you're not going to work and you're voting for gun control. You see what I'm saying? [[Insane Troll Logic|You see the connection?]] That's why I eat granola."}}
* [[Drives Like Crazy]]
* [[Empathic Weapon]]: Though the audience never sees anything unusual, Hammer treats his gun as a living, breathing entity.
Line 66:
* [[Gun Twirling]]: Sledge does this a lot, including in the above-linked title sequence.
* [[Hand Cannon]]
* [[Hand Wave]]: Expecting to be
** Which creates continuity errors since the announcement states that this season takes place five years before, where Hammer met his partner only one year previously.
*** [[Fridge Logic|The continuity error can be reconciled if one assumes the first-season finale took place more than five years after the rest of the first season.]]
Line 72:
* [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath]]: Sledge.
* [[Hey, That's My Line!]]: In one episode where Hammer has Humphrey Bogart as a [[Spirit Advisor]], Sledge says "Here's looking at you, kid!", and Bogey answers.... guess what.
* [[I Call It "Vera"]]: He calls his gun "amigo".
** Originally, he insisted his gun's name was "Gun." Though his relationship with his gun (the mere fact that he has a relationship with his gun) fits this trope.
* [[Improbable Aiming Skills]]: He may be clueless in many respects but he's really good with his .44
Line 87:
** Possibly a subversion, however, when you realize that Hammer has no qualms about ignoring laws against [[Police Brutality]] and excessive force...
* [[Leaning on the Fourth Wall]]: Employed several times. The most notable instance occurs in the first-season finale, when Captain Trunk barges into a terrorist making a live television broadcast.

'''Sledge''' (to Trunk): "You talkin' to me?" }}
