* [[The Dragon]]: On ''Tiger Sharks'', Dragonstein to Captain Bizzarly. Bonus points for being an actual dragon.
* [[Episode Title Card]]
* [["Everybody Laughs" Ending]]
* [[Everything's Even Worse With Sharks]]: Subverted by the Tiger Sharks' Mako, who transforms into a humanoid mako shark but is the titular good guys' leader.
* [[Evil Twin]]: Karate Kat had an evil twin brother named Karate Krud, who first turned evil after getting a bump to the head. When the two confront each other, they're so identical in appearance that it's near-impossible to tell them apart; Krud uses this to his advantage when Dr. Katmandu tries to whack him on the head with a specially-made mallet that'll force him to undergo a [[Heel Face Turn]]. {{spoiler|Dr. Katmandu hits the correct twin, then explains that he expected Krud to be better than Kat at everything, so he simply aimed for the twin who was winning the fight.}}
Line 54:
* [[Get Rich Quick Scheme]]: On ''Street Frogs'', every time a money-making opportunity was announced over the radio, the gang would be quick to jump on it. However, for them, [[Failure Is the Only Option|success was never an option]].
* [[Grumpy Old Man|Grumpy Old Turtle]]: In ''Street Frogs'', diner owner Snappy Sam (an anthropomorphic snapping turtle) loathes the titular group immensely because of all the hi-jinks they get up to that turn him into a [[Butt Monkey]], plus they owe him a bill for eating at his diner.
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: A number of voices in ''The Comic Strip'' are recognizable as voices from ''[[Thundercats (Animation)|Thundercats]]'' and ''[[Silverhawks (Animation)|Silverhawks]]'' since all three shows share cast and crew members. Among the biggest examples are Karate Kat being voiced by Larry Kenney, who voiced [[Thundercats (Animation)|Lion-O]] and [[Silverhawks (Animation)|Bluegrass]], and Camp Mini-Mon's camp director being voiced by Peter Newman, who voiced [[Thundercats (Animation)|Tygra]] and [[Silverhawks (Animation)|Quicksilver]].
* [[Idiot Hero]]: Karate Kat.
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: On ''Mini-Monsters'', Wolfie's jokes are filled with these, to the point that Klutz the monster lizard is the only one who finds them funny.
Line 70:
* [[The Resenter]]: In ''Karate Kat'', resident scientist and inventor Dr. Katmandu feels this way toward the main character because he sees Karate as just a stupid muscle-head.
* [[Saturday Morning Cartoon]]
* [[Shout -Out]]: One ''Karate Kat'' episode, "The Twin Brother Kaper," has [[Evil Counterpart|Karate]] [[Evil Twin|Krud]] telling Big Papa's gang that the real Karate Kat (who he's impersonating) stands for "[[Thunder Cats|justice, truth, honor and loyalty]]"; this prompts one of Big Papa's goons to describe the hero as "a thunder-cat." Big Papa promptly tells the goon to [[Take That|shut up]]. (Also see [[Hey, It's That Voice!]] above.)
* [[Sixty Five Episode Cartoon]]
* [[The Smurfette Principle]]: Honey Love for the Street Frogs.
