Line 4:
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Niles.
* [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]]: In the episode where Maxwell and Fran have to deal with the tabloid, we see a scene where the paper is printing lies about John F. Kennedy, Jr. And mere moments later, the tabloid editor openly brags about the way his paper exploits Princess Diana. Sadly, we all know what happened to both of these public figures within mere years of this episode's original airing...
** Even worse, Diana's eventual death occurred when she was trying to escape from the paparazzi..who happen to be the primary antagonists of this very same episode.
* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]]: It's implied that every Jew in America is obsessed with Barbara Streisand, and Fran refers to her as her queen.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: In "Imaginary Friend", mention is made of Maxwell's [[Harry Potter|great-aunt Hermione and her giant hoot owl]] in regards to the Sheffield family's history of dementia.
** In a later season episode, Fran admits some crab she served was [[SpongeBob SquarePants|"Krab with a K"]].
** The season 6 Thanksgiving episode (the one in which Fran finds out she's pregnant for real). Morty is seen watching the football game, and he said the he should have bet on Pittsburgh. The Steelers actually did play the Detroit Lions that Thanksgiving, and they lost on a controversial coin flip, now forever infamous to Steeler fans.
* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: CC. She may be a horrible, greedy, selfish person, but all the crap she takes, you can't help but have a tiny bit of sympathy for her.
* [[Les Yay]]: Fran and Val.
** And, overlapping with [[Foe Yay]], Fran and C.C.
Line 16:
{{quote|'''C.C.''': My mental health is just a sick ''game'' to you, isn't it?!
'''Niles''': Rack 'em up, let's play again sometime. }}
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: On the [[Live JournalLiveJournal]] gossip community ''[http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/ Oh No They Didn't]'', it's pretty much obligatory to include "commentary" from Maxwell Sheffield in Broadway-related posts. He still has it in for [[Andrew Lloyd Webber]], but he's not particularly impressed with ''[[Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark]]'' either.
* [[Mondegreen]]: "She was working in a bridal shop in Flashing, Queens..."
* [[Never Live It Down]]: Maxwell frequently gets criticized by Fran and Niles for passing on producing ''[[Cats]]'', but he asserts he did the right thing.
Line 24:
* [[Squick]]: Niles and Nanny Mueller in "The Nanny-In-Law". That's not just [[Squick]], that's [[Nightmare Fuel]]!
