It is a parody first and foremost of classic cop-shows, so there's lot of lampshading and tropes taken to the comical extreme.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Mitch gets jealous of John showing an interest in a pretty girl, yet when he meets one he's smitten with, he ignores his friend in favour of her, in spite of the fact he's dying of a lethal poison.
* MrExposition: Two of them in fact; a duo of police officers practically only exist to lampshade the current situation, shuffling by slowly in the process to say their piece.
* {{Retirony}}: Chief's former partner. His new boat was even called ''Hope I Don't Die''.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: Mitch's last act in the series is to proclaim his plan to run to Mexico when his tax evasion is discovered.
