Line 50:
* [[Giant Spider]]: Episode 12 of the UK version featured one.
* [[Green Aesop]]: In the UK version, S.G.W.'s mission (his intials stand for Stop Global Warming). To an extent, H2O Man who occasionally stresses over the merits of water.
* [[Jaywalking Will Ruin Your Life]]: Believe it or not, one of them got in trouble for this, too. Stan is always watching!▼
* [[Jerkass]]: Mindset from the second US season. Aside from insulting Ms. Limelight, he deliberately failed a challenge out of refusal to spell words with an extra bee, getting his teammates stung by bees in the process.
** According to Mindset, at least in the second case, he was refusing to play by Bee Sting's twisted rules and banking on that being the secret challenge of the day. (On this show, stranger things have happened.) Except it turns out it wasn't, and he was reprimanded for putting himself above his teammates, who had no say in his choice even though it affected all of them, and they were understandably not pleased.
** The Iron/Dark Enforcer from the first season also counts, but he's apparently [[Mean Character, Nice Actor|a lot nicer]] in real life.
* [[Large Ham]]: Pretty much everyone, Stan Lee included. ''EXCELSIOR!'', indeed.
▲* [[
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]
* [[Most Common Superpower]]: The comic book versions of the superheroes tend to be more muscular (for males) or have bigger breasts (for females) than the real-life counterparts.
* [[Mundane Made Awesome]]: The editors sometimes go crazy with the special effects.
Line 74:
* [[Shout-Out]]: In the final battle against Dr. Dark, Hyperstrike does a [[Dragon Ball|Kamehameha]] attack while shouting "HY-PER, HY-PERRR STRIIIKE!"
* [[Smug Snake]]: Dr. Dark is intentionally played as this. He talks in a raspy voice and spends his screentime boasting about how evil and brilliant he is. Then when his big plan in the second season fails, he confronts the superheroes personally and gets beaten up in a fight that lasts about a minute and a half.
* [[Special Guest]]: The UK version featured Danni Harmer, known for playing [[The Story Of Tracy Beaker|Tracy Beaker]], ''[[Best Of Friends]]'' presenters Abs and Rani, ''[[Prank Patrol]]'' presenter Barney Harwood and one of the presenters of ''[[Newsround]]''. And a season 2 episode of the US version featured [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] wrestler Rob Van Dam.
* [[Stock Super Powers]]: Most of the first season's heroes were [[Superman]]-style [[Flying Brick|flying bricks]], although the second season's contestants were more creative as a whole.
