=== Tropes: ===
* [[All Psychology Is Freudian]]: Initially subverted then later played somewhat straight: Pöysti visits several psychiatrists over the course of an episode, starting off with one belonging to an unmentioned school of psychology who only states the obvious and repeats what he says, following with a fake Jungian one that doesn't care about any of his issues and instead just wants to tell Pöysti about his own childhood, before finally getting to talk to a Freudian one who manages to help him to any degree.
* [[Animal Wrongs Group]]: The Association For Orphaned Dogs Of St.Petersburg is a minor version of this.
Line 42:
* [[Berserk Button]]: Don't call Laakkonen (episode ''Key Player'') gay or get between Raine Makkula and his music.
** Also, don't blame media about anything in the front of Kontiovaara. He'll... well, not exactly go berserk, but he will get seriously indignant. (Considering that his usual behavior [[Tastes Like Diabetes]] and that blaming the media is about the only way to make him show any anger at all, it counts as this trope.)
{{quote|'''Kontiovaara:''' What the hell are you blaming the media for? Are you menstruating or do you simply want to live in [[Ruritania|Albania]]?<br />
'''The male interviewee:''' Yes.<br />
'''Kontiovaara:''' Can't use this stuff. Can't use this stuff at all. }}
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: The episode "Kaksvitonen" (Twenty-Fiver, a [[Parody Episode]] of [[24|Twenty Four]]) features two long scenes done entirely in English. Likewise, recent episode "Obama" also had quite a lot of English dialogue when the titular president showed up.
Line 306:
* [[Unusual Euphemism]]: With some [[A Worldwide Punomenon]] in episode ''25''.
{{quote|'''Repomies:''' (showing a slide) Here's the City of Helsinki.
'''Pöysti:''' [[Embarrassing Slide|That's your wife naked in a garden swing.]]<br />
'''Repomies:''' What? Goddamnit! Holiday slides! But, under these special, terrorism-related circumstances, it will have to do. It's my naked wife, but you'll imagine that it's the City of Helsinki. But don't look at her Front Töölö! }}
** Front Töölö is a district of Helsinki. Back Töölö also exists. Töölö doesn't mean anything obscene (it doesn't mean anything much), but the word sounds like it could.
