** {{spoiler|The late}} 24 calling upon the spirits of Speedy and [[Woodrow Wilson]] (no, seriously) during ''Pinstripes And Poltergeists''. And what is 21 supposed to do for them? Name perfumes used by different celebrities.
* [[The Chris Carter Effect]]: Avoided. The writers have stated that they don't plan anything, but they're usually pretty good at introducing and then tying up plot points. They've described their writing style as coming up with stuff on the fly, then writing future plots to remain consistent with what has been written while expanding on any detail that looks interesting.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Jonas Venture. He's the reason why Rusty Venture is the bitter man he is today, especially considering that he's endangered his own son time and time again. And unlike Rusty Venture, he has never shown regret for any of his actions. Even his crew (who aren't as heroic as people make them out to be themselves) are disgusted by what he did to Blue Morpho. The kicker? He considered it to be a spectacular achievement of science. Long story short, he was the AssholeVictim to end all asshole victims when he fell victim to the massacre aboard the Gargantua-1.
* [[Complete Monster]]: In a cast of ([[The Scrappy|mostly]]) easily likable characters, Impossible is the closest this series has to one, given all the crap he put his family and the Ventures through in the first few seasons. Oddly enough, his [[Face Heel Turn]] has made him somewhat more likable, perhaps because it puts him alongside the more openly evil Phantom Limb.
** Also because part of what made him so unbearable was his sense of [[Smug Super]] superiority. Without that, he comes off as much more human, at least.
* [[Crazy Awesome]]:
** Most of the show's cast, but special mention goes to Phantom Limb, or should I say...REVENGE!!!
