* AbusiveParents: A staple of the Jossverse, sometimes lampooned. Amusingly, by season 3 of ''Series/{{Angel}}'' this reached the point where the fact that Fred's parents were perfectly nice people came off as a shocking twist.

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Though he's always had a reputation for using AnyoneCanDie, he's been accused of relying on it a bit too much, killing characters off just for cheap shock value long after we've learned to suspect it's coming. He always wanted to do this (for example, the character of Jesse in the first episode of ''Buffy''), but sometimes it was pushed on him by circumstance (Doyle was written off of ''Angel'' because of actor Glenn Quinn's drug abuse).
