!!Tropes relating to Harvey and his animations include:

* TheBadGuyWins: In "Foxy Gets Hooked," [[spoiler:Freddy wins the fight that he started against Foxy. However, it's PlayedForLaughs, as Foxy gets comically turned into a flip top trash can]].
* BlackEyesOfCrazy: Zigzagged in "Foxy Gets Hooked." Instead of the plastic eyeballs that the animatronics have in ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'', Harvey gives them digital, black screens for eyes, with brightly colored pupils. Foxy's pupils are yellow, Chica and Bonnie's are blue, and Freddy's are reddish-orange. However, Freddy is basically the TokenEvilTeammate of the animatronics. Bonnie is rude, but not as antagonistic as Freddy, while Foxy and Chica are much nicer in comparison.
* DirtyCoward: When a fight breaks out between Foxy and Freddy in "Foxy Gets Hooked", Bonnie looks like he's going to aid Freddy... only to quickly take shelter in a rabbit cage, transforming into a shivering, realistic-looking bunny as well.
* FurryReminder: In "Foxy Gets Hooked", Bonnie transforms into a realistic-looking rabbit when he seeks shelter in a rabbit cage the moment Freddy and Foxy start fighting.
* GainaxEnding: "Foxy Gets Hooked" ends with [[spoiler:Foxy getting slammed to the ground by Freddy, crushing Foxy into a small form which Chica uses as a fliptop trash can]]. Cut to the credits, which show [[spoiler:the security guard crawling home, with his chair still glued to his backside, while a snail outpaces him. Then it turns out that they were in a race, and the snail won]].

* InsaneTrollLogic: In "Foxy Gets Hooked", when Foxy switches to his "pirate" mode, we get to see inside Freddy's brain. We see "Foxy = Pirate" and "Pirate = Mutiny". The two "Pirate"s meld together and disappear, leaving "Foxy = Mutiny". Freddy assumes that Foxy is going to betray him just for being himself and gets mad at the unlucky fox.
* MonaLisaSmile: Parodied in "Foxy Gets Hooked." The "Kid's Corner," a bulletin board of drawings by kids who visited Freddy Fazbear's, inexplicably contains a very detailed painting of Freddy in the style of the Mona Lisa.
* NightmareFace: In "Foxy Gets Hooked," the first closeup shot of Foxy and Bonnie's heads has them sporting disturbing expressions with big, toothy maws. However, they quickly switch to more cartoonish, less scary faces, making it clear that this is short is not meant to be horror.

* SelfDeprecation: In "Foxy Gets Hooked," Foxy's default voice is labelled "Poncy Brit." Foxy is voiced by Harvey himself.
* SirSwearsALot: In "Foxy Gets Hooked," Bonnie is the only character to swear. He drops a couple F bombs and at least one "twat." They're all bleeped out.
* StickySituation: "Foxy Gets Hooked" suggests that the reason that the security guard can't move around is because someone put glue on his chair. He stays stuck to it for the whole video, forcing him to crawl home.
* StylisticSuck: "The Spongey Show" has very intentionally crude animation.
* TalkLikeAPirate: In "Foxy Gets Hooked", Foxy has a switch on the back of his neck with "Poncy Brit" and "Pirate" settings. He switches to the latter once he gets his hook hand.
* TokenEvilTeammate: In "Foxy Gets Hooked," Freddy seems to be the only one of the animatronics who is actually evil. Foxy is completely innocent, Chica seems nice enough aside from [[spoiler:using Foxy as a trash can]], and while Bonnie is more of a jerk, he's too much of a DirtyCoward to be a threat. Freddy, on the other hand, is violent, rude, and antagonistic. Bonnie mentions that Freddy gave him and Foxy "orders" to go to the security guard's room. It's never stated what exactly they were supposed to do there, but based on the premise of [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys the original game]], it seems that they're supposed to kill the security guard.
* UnnecessarilyCreepyRobot: Lampshaded in "Foxy Gets Hooked". When Bonnie and Foxy stop in front of the "Kid's Corner" bulletin board, some of the drawings on the board ask "What is with the eyes?" referring to the animatronics' strangely CreepyShadowedUndereyes. One of the drawings even suggests that the animatronics are [[TheStoner high]].
