Line 27:
* [[Anvil On Head]]: Happens in "The Dog Who Cried Fish" and "Puppy Love".
** Also in the ep "Mission: Really Big Mission"
* [[Anti -Hero]]: Dudley Puppy (Type I).
* [[Anti -Villain]]: Birdbrain's henchmen: The Owl and the Bat.
** {{spoiler|Slush, Snowflake's twin brother in "Chilly Dog".}}
* [[Artificial Limb]]: The Chief has a bionic foot that makes him even cooler than he is already
* [[Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny]]: The Chameleon has a hard time focusing on his schemes over his stoma- OOH LADYBUG! *nom*
** {{spoiler|Dudley Puppy during the beginning of the episode "Watch Dog."}}
* [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]]: Dudley and Kitty have several of these moments.
* [[Bad Bad Acting]]: From "Doom-Mates":
{{quote| '''Kitty''': Oh, no. My whiskers are still gone.<br />
Line 39:
(Cue fall) }}
** Also from the scene with Dr. Apocalypse in "Super Duper Crime Busters".
* [[Bad News, Irrelevant News]]: From "Mall Rat":
{{quote| '''Keswick''': Chief, I've analyzed the blueprint of the mall. The bad news is, there's absolutely no way to stop the mall from hurtling toward the sun.<br />
'''Chief''': Hmm. What's the good news?<br />
Line 81:
* [[Convection Schmonvection]]: Zigzagged with the volcano rides at Lava Land in "Disobedience School".
* [[Couch Gag]]: The outcome of Dudley's guitar riff in the opening.
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: Dudley, definitely.
* [[Cute Kitten]]: Kitty as a kitten is just darn adorable.
* [[Da Chief]]
Line 93:
* [[Doomy Dooms of Doom]]: D.O.O.M. of course.
* [[Dystopia]]: The {{spoiler|Snaptrap-ruled alternate timeline created by Dudley's use of [[Time Travel]] in "Watch Dog".}}
* [[Eek! aA Mouse!]]: Word for word in "Share-a-Lair", from an elephant.
* [[Episode Title Card]]: As with Hartman's other works, this one has this, in the form of a case file portfolio.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Verminious Snaptrap would ''never'' kill anybody on their birthday without letting them celebrate it first. "No one's THAT evil!"
Line 99:
** The reason why Snaptrap tells [[Just Between You and Me|the Agents his latest plan]] is because he thinks it's rude not to.
** Kitty's criminal sister [[Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas|used her one phone call to call their mom on her birthday]].
* [[EverythingsEverything's Even Worse With Sharks]]: Snaptrap's favorite form of torture (mostly [[The Chew Toy|Larry's]]) is a tank filled with sharks.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Worse With Bears]]: Leather Teddy.
* [[Evil Duo]]: Villains in certain episodes.
** Snowflake and Slush (Chilly Dog)
Line 111:
* [[Expository Theme Tune]]: Like ''[[Fairly Oddparents]]'' and ''[[Danny Phantom]]'' before it, the theme song is made to explain the premise of the show.
* [[Expy]]: The Chief is very similar to Principal Pixiefrog from [[My Gym Partners a Monkey]].
** Francisco looks a lot like [[Hanna -Barbera|Wally Gator]].
** The two rabbit siblings in "Chilly Dog" are similar to [[Yin Yang Yo (Animation)|Yin and Yang]].
* [[Fallen Hero]]: {{spoiler|Jack Rabbit.}}
* [[Fantastic Voyage Plot]]: Dudley and the Chief have this experience when they're swallowed by the Chameleon.
* [[Female Feline Male Mutt]]
* [[Four -Fingered Hands]]: This becomes especially obvious in this scene from "Purr-fect Partners":
{{quote| '''Snaptrap''': Ready to lose one of your nine lives?<br />
'''Kitty''': I'd rather use my ''[[Lampshade Hanging|ten claws]]''! (brandishing her claws, of which there are clearly only eight) }}
Line 124:
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: In some, Verminious Snaptrap, considering he got what it could be [[Abusive Parents|Abusive Mother]], based in all the hints on te show about her, and the hateness that Snaptrap has against her.
** Also, the Chameleon, caused by being a social outcast.
* [[Fun T -Shirt]]: In "Mall Rat", Dudley wears a blue variation of his shirt with "I ♥" and the graphic of a muffin.
* [[Fun With Acronyms]]: T.U.F.F. ('''T'''urbo '''U'''ndercover '''F'''ighting '''F'''orce) and D.O.O.M. ('''D'''iabolical '''O'''rder '''O'''f '''M'''ayhem).
* [[Funny Animal]]: Dudley is a walking, talking secret agent, but still harbors affection for chewing his own butt and chew toys. Also, Kitty has little to no balance when her whiskers are cut, as the popular (but incorrect) myth states about real cats.
Line 152:
* [[Hair of Gold]]: Believe it or not, {{spoiler|The Chief!}}
** Also, Dudley Puppy in "Hot Dog".
* [[Half -Dressed Cartoon Animal]]: Dudley.
** Averted in ''Mom-A-Geddon'' where it's shown that Dudley wears underpants underneath [[Fur Is Clothing|pants that look like naked animal legs.]]
* [[Hammerspace]]: Kitty pulls a cannon that's about ten times her size out from behind her back in "Mall Rat". Later in the same episode, she pulls out two pom-poms to perform a gloating dance after it turns out that {{spoiler|[[Cassandra Truth|she was right about Snaptrap being evil]] the entire time that he was pretending to have changed after his stay in prison.}}
Line 177:
** In "Mind Trap" Kitty bakes fish cookies that even she hates.
* [[Limited Wardrobe]]
* [[Line -of -Sight Name]]: In ''The Wrong Stuff'', Dudley and Keswick try to hide their identity from Kitty by saying that their name is "Bob" and the name of a sign, such as "Men's Room" or "Don't Feed The Squirrels" or "Stay Off The Grass".
* [[Literal Metaphor]]:
** From "Puppy Love":
Line 198:
** Although the Chameleon survives several explosions from the same bomb, so its lethality is questionable. It was certainly shown as Kitty just getting more frazzled with each blast, rather than dying.
* [[Not Even Bothering With the Accent]]: The Chameleon, despite having the ability to transform into anyone, he (usually) still uses his normal voice, occasionally using phrases related to his disguise. {{spoiler|For example, when he infiltrated T.U.F.F. by disguising himself as "Fifi Oui-Oui", a gorgeous French Poodle, he said "French" phrases like "Notre Dame", "Eiffel Tower" and "Jacques Cousteau".}}
* [[Off -Model]]: The animators can't seem to decide whether Kitty's nose is circular or triangular.
* [[The One Who Wears Shoes]]: Kitty and Keswick.
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Arguably Kitty is the only one with any sense.
Line 204:
** Bird Brain when you compare him to Verminious Snaptrap and the Chameleon.
* [[Overly Long Tongue]]: The Chameleon, naturally.
* [[Pantsless Males, Fully -Dressed Females]]: Played straight with Dudley and Kitty. All other males are fully clothed.
* [[Panty Shot]]: {{spoiler|Kitty's pink underwear in Snappy Campers: Here, Keswick said he had sewed Kitty and Dudley's name in their underwears. So, Dudley and Kitty pulled out their own underwear to confirm it.}}
* [[Paper -Thin Disguise]]: The Chameleon - not visually, because he can copy appearance perfectly, but in acting. He's an incredibly bad actor ([[Depending On the Writer|except when he's not]]), and his idea of sounding convincingly anything is to litter his talking with random phrases related to the person he's impersonating (when he acts French he inserts French foods into his sentences for no reason, same with impersonating a general with military talk). Surprisingly, this never fails to fool anyone.
* [[Parental Bonus]]: The [[Affectionate Parody]] of ''[[The Brady Bunch]]'' in the episode "Share-a-Lair".
** One ep had Dudley and Kitty wearing sports jerseys, [[Get Smart (TV)|Dudley's has 86 on it and Kitty's has 99!]]
Line 227:
* [[Scrabble Babble]]: Snaptrap plays "Schmoodled". When challenged, he zaps the appointment. "There, I schmoodled Larry."
** It became a [[Running Gag]] for the episode that whenever stuff blew up, they used "schmoodled"
* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: Chameleon started dating Dudley's mother Peggy in "Snap Dad", but instantly broke it off and ran for it when he found out she had kids (though it may have been ''who'' her son was).
* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]: Kitty is affected by this after her uncle gives her a word-a-day calendar.
* [[Serious Business]]: As seen in "Watch-Dog", getting the only chocolate donut in the breakroom is such for Dudley and Kitty.
Line 241:
* [[Species Surname]]: Dudley.
** Inverted ''and'' played straight with ''Kitty Kat''swell.
* [[Speech -Impaired Animal]]: Birdbrain's henchmen, an owl who only says "Who?" and a blind bat that only says "Where?".
* [[Speech Impediment]]: Keswick stutters, and Snaptrap has a lisp.
* [[Spoiler Opening]]: The [[Episode Title Card]] will always have a picture of the episode's main bad guy. Usually it's the last picture. {{spoiler|This can be a bad thing with several episodes, such as "The Wrong Stuff" and "Toast of T.U.F.F".}}
Line 248:
** Honestly, its one of the most used jokes in the show. The only real difference between the thought processes of T.U.F.F and D.O.O.M is that one thinks for good and the other thinks for evil.
* [[Stupid Boss]]: Verminious Snaptrap
* [[Suck E. CheesesCheese's]]: Peet-za Possum's.
* [[Sure Let's Go With That]]: In "Snap Dad", Snaptrap starts dating Dudley's mother and says they met at the laundromat.
{{quote| '''Dudley's Mom''': No grown man should be walking around with ketchup on his shirt.<br />
Line 267:
* [[Top Heavy Guy]]: Dudley.
** [[Heroic Build]]
* [[Tricking the Shapeshifter]]: Dudley does this to the Chameleon by pretending to believe the Chameleon can't pose as a realistic mouse. Chameleon proves him wrong, but unfortunately, the ''[[Eek! aA Mouse!|elephant]]'' agent was in front of him.
* [[Tron Lines]]: The Chameleon's suit has these.
* [[True Companions]]: The ending of "Toast of T.U.F.F." showed this between the main protagonists. And it was ADORABLE.
Line 277:
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Keswick stutters a lot.
* [[Villains Out Shopping]]: When they were being interviewed by a cameraman, they tried to take down the Chameleon, thinking he's doing evil, when he is really shopping.
* [[Villain Team -Up]]: In "The Curse of King Mutt", Snaptrap, Chameleon, and Bird Brain work together to steal King Mutt's jewel-encrusted bone. Naturally, given their personalities, [[Hilarity Ensues]].
** Done again in [[Christmas Episode|"A Doomed Christmas"]].
*** And once again in "Time Waits For No Mutt".
* [[The Walls Are Closing In]]: In "Snapnapped", complete with [[Spikes of Doom]]. The ironic part is that it wasn't in a bad guy's trap, but happened in their own HQ!
* [[Welcome Episode]]: Unlike many of Hartman's works where the show's pilot takes place after the events of the [[Expository Theme Tune]], the first episode of T.U.F.F Puppy explains how Dudley became a secret agent.
* [[WhosWho's On First?]]: Bird Brain's two henchmen, an owl that only says "Hoo" & a blind bat that only says "Where", tend to cause this much to the booby's annoyance.
** Now he has two more henchmen: a female sheep (or ewe) and a [[Duck]] named Skip.
* [[Wire Dilemma]]: 'Quacky Duck', the [[Show Within a Show]], aparently had an episode where he taught kids ''how to disarm a nuclear missile!''
