* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Several, but the best known is CarolCheryl Song aka "the Asian chick with the hair".
** Another famous example would be the other Asian chick with the long hair who replaced her, Sally "From the Valley" Achenbach.
* [[Jump the Shark]]: Most people point to Cornelius giving up hosting duties.
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: ''THE '''SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUL''' TRAIN!''
** Also parodied was Cornelius' tendency to sway when MCing, lampshaded on ''[[Mad TV]]'' once.
* [[Never Live It Down]]: Although outlasting the genre by two decades, the show couldn't escape its connection to disco (particularly big bellbottoms and bigger Afros).
* [[Older Than They Think]]: CarolCheryl Song had been a ''Soul Train'' Dancer since at least the late 1970s.
* [[Replacement Scrappy]]: After Don Cornelius stepped away from hosting, every subsequent host was tolerated at best by the fandom.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Any white male dancer in the ''Soul Train'' Line. Bro, give it up — you can't dance.
