{{quote|'''Gene:''' Gay, mythical creature, gay mythical creature.}}

* [[Call Back]]: Tina moans on the floor in "Sheesh! Cab, Bob?" like in "Sexy Dance Fighting".

'''Linda:''' You're smiling with your eyes. }}

* [[Characterization Marches On]]: Tina was first playing along fully with her siblings in a prank for the pilot, by episode 4 she developed into a daughter that respects Bob much more.

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Bob and his family.

** Jimmy Pesto's kids also, though he's less ''accepting''.

* [[Hypocritical Heartwarming]]: In "Bad Tina" Gene and Louise blackmail Tina into doing their chores. Then they find out her school frenemy is blackmailing her into getting into trouble. Suffice it to say she now has them to contend with.

* [[Jewish Mother]]: While her religion is apparently Catholic (she takes Eucharist), Linda has a lot of traits of this trope. This could also apply to Linda's mother.

* [[Just One More Level]]: Bob goes through this when they buy a "Burger Boss" arcade game, but mainly because he was trying to beat Jimmy Pesto's high score, whose initials are "BOB SUX". When Linda takes it away, he has to go with his kids to an old-fashioned arcade to beat the score.

* [[Most Fanfic Writers Are Girls]]: Tina writes a lot of it, more specifically "Erotic Friend Fiction", mostly involving her love interest Jimmy Pesto Jr.

** However, she started writing those because she had already written erotic fanfiction of every tv show, movie and book series she could think of.

* [[MST]]: Bob and Louise apparently do this regularly and call themselves "The Burn Unit". Also, Bob and the kids do this with the art in the "Art Crawl" episode.
