  • Harsher in Hindsight: Beach Justice's backstory jokes about losing 90% of all their footage thanks to No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup. Come a year and a half later and this actually did happen to Freddie during the filming of another short.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Freddie's "Tebowing" at the end of Beach Justice.
  • Stuck in Their Shadow: The freddiew videos are made by both Freddie Wong and Brandon Laatsch, though Brandon's less heard of because Freddie's name is on the channel and stars in most of the videos.
  • Sweet Dreams Fuel: While "Every 90s Commercial Ever" is pure Nightmare Fuel, the behind the scenes video helps ease the horror by showing what a fun time the cast and crew had putting it together, especially the child actors.
  • Tear Jerker: Ode to Garry's Mod.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: The period starting with the premiere of VGHS, the rebranding of the channel as Rocket Jump, and Brandon leaving marked a noticeable shift from largely plot-free visual effects showcases to more narrative-driven videos that alienated the fans who preferred the older "short and sweet" format.
