* ComicallyOversizedButt: There's a sketch called "The Search For Big Butt", where Buster searches for Big Butt, a [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Bigfoot-like creature]] with an oversized butt. He interviews an old prospector who could either be the father or grandfather of WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam, who saw Big Butt and his enormous buttprint when he was pining for gold in 1909. [[AndCallHimGeorge Elmyra]] manages to find Big Butt, but due to his oversized butt, [[EveryoneHasStandards he is one of the few animals she doesn't find cute or cuddly]].

* GameShowGoofballs: In the "[[Series/{{Jeopardy}} Gyp-Parody]]" sketch, Buster hosts the titular game show with Elmyra Duff, Dizzy Devil, and Calamity Coyote as his contestants. None of the contestants are able to win anything; Calamity because even though he knew the question to every answer, he was never called upon because his buzzer was broken, Dizzy because he chose to [[ExtremeOmnivore eat his podium]] instead of giving questions, and Elmyra because she kept asking "What is a bunny?" for every answer except "This is the animal most associated with Easter", wherein she asked, "Who is George Washington?". The sketch ends with Elmyra's repeated blunders prematurely aging Buster into an old grey hare and Babs wheeling him away.

The game ends with Elmyra's repeated blunders driving Buster completely nuts and Babs quietly wheeling him off.

* AffectionateParody: Everything from ''Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood'' to ''Film/HoneyIShrunkTheKids'' to ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' gets spoofed in this episode.
* AndCallHimGeorge: Backfires on Elmyra [[PainPoweredLeap spectacularly]] when she tries hugging a porcupine.
* AndNowForSomethingCompletelyDifferent: One of the few episodes based around comedy sketches involving the main cast.
* AnimateInanimateObject: Near about everything in "Tinkerbunny's Wonderful World of Make Believe and Learning Fun".
* AssemblyLineFastForward: The parody of ''Series/ILoveLucy'' features Dizzy in an homage to the legendary chocolate factory moment from the ''Lucy'' episode "Job Switching", with this inevitably happening.

** Buster in the Gyp-Parody sketch as well, as Elmyra drives him crazy.
* CreatorCameo: Caricatures of ''almost the entire staff'' behind the show (including Creator/StevenSpielberg himself) appear at the very end.

** The usual gag credit for the episode itself: '''This Is Episode Number 65''' - Just In Case You're Counting.
* EarlyBirdCameo: [[WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}} Ralph the Guard]] as a model for a shampoo product.
-->"Ah, don't hate me just 'cause, I-I'm beautiful!"
* EndOfSeriesAwareness: Although the show would go on for two more seasons, given that this was the [[SixtyFiveEpisodeCartoon 65th episode]] in the production order, it's not hard to read this into the final skit where Buster and Babs advertise a make-your-own cartoon kit (as though they're encouraging the viewers to make one themselves) and animated versions of many of the show's staff appear.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Elmyra nearly hugs Big Butt, but for reasons obvious to even her, she stops, says "Never mind", and hastily leaves.
* FreezeFrameBonus: The credits sequence for "Honey, I Shrunk the Clothes" has four screens of [[CreditsGag gag credits]] that flash by very fast, complete with LampshadeHanging.
-->THIS LINE IS FOR PEOPLE WHO HIT FREEZE FRAME AND LOOK FOR SUSPECT MESSAGES
* NoBudget: "Tinkerbunny's Wonderful World of Make Believe and Learning Fun" is a StylisticSuck parody of low-budget educational kid's programming.

* SanitySlippage: Buster at the end of the "Gyp-Parody" segment after Elmyra drives him insane. He screams then suddenly morphs into a elderly version of himself and is carried out in a wheelchair.
* ShoutOut:
** Beyond the myriad of parodies, there's a blink-and-you-miss-it appearance of a pond shaped like [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar a parody of the Playboy logo]] outside of Babs' house (made up to look like Babs herself) in the "Tinkerbunny" sketch.
** One of the final lines in the gag credits for "Honey, I Shrunk the Laundry" is the writer telling the viewer to watch [[Film/Gremlins2TheNewBatch Grim-loons 2]] instead of wasting their time on "Laundry".
* ShowWithinAShow: The many parody movies/shows/video games featured in the episode.
* VisualPun: Several in the "travel log" of Wackyland, natch.
* VocalEvolution: Don Messick uses a noticeably lower-pitched voice for Hamton in the "Blunder Years" skit.
