Line 16:
* [[Fridge Horror]]: When Marty initially dies, we see a trippy sequence with creepy music and Steve's room breaking apart behind him while he chews on the poison burger. Now imagine what it was like from Steve's point of view...
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: "Will the person who stole the 'C' & 'L' from the Class of '98..."
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Rod is [[Firefly|Book]].
** Steve's mom is [[The Brady Bunch|Marcia Brady]]
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: [[Tim Curry]] plays a talking frog in one episode.
* [[Hot Mom]]: Maureen McCormick as Judy Beauchamp.
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: And how. In one episode, Marty makes a pun about the Grim Reaper and his sibling being the "Brothers Grim". Cue the audience booing so loudly that it makes the actor wince briefly.
Line 26:
* [[Never Say Die]]: Inverted; Marty is clearly shown to be die in the first episode, and is refered to as dead throughout the series, despite the fact that angels are not suppossed to be spirits of the dead in the first place.It is somewhat implied, however, that Marty is made an angel as a special punishment, rather than it be the natural order of things.
* [[No Fourth Wall]]: Prior to the opening credits of the episode "Grumpy Young Men", Marty explained the absence of Steve's mother by remarking that "the actress who played the mother has left the show" before going onto explain the introduction as Steve's father & grandfather to the cast. There's other moments, but that's the most glaring.
* [[Shout -Out]]: [[Randall and Hopkirk Deceased|A Ghost named Marty helps out the life of his best friend with his supernatural powers, anyone?]]
* [[Smoke Out]]: Subverted-- Marty creates smoke but is left standing in the room. Then, in front of the person he wants to escape from, walks into a closet.
* [[Stern Teacher]]: Mr Nitzke
Line 32:
'''Mr Nitzke''': Well, ''now '''I'm''' your personal problem''. }}
* [[This Is Going to Be Huge]]: Marty had made a huge investment in "Planet Macarena" stock.
* [[You Can See Me?]]: Marty had this reaction when he met an old lady who could see him because she was soon to die.
** Steve's Grandpa could see Marty too (he could see all angels as well as Rod, due to a near-death experience), but he was introduced after the initial instance so nothing happened with it.
** [[Sabrina the Teenage Witch|Sabrina Spellman]] could also see Marty, on account of being a witch.
