* TheDitz: Nar is a bit slow to pick up on things, like when the Janitizer blurts out his identity at the beginning of court proceedings and he spends most of the rest of the trial trying to figure out why he seems so familiar, coming to the conclusion that he is… ''the Janitizer''.



* {{Manchild}}: Jimbob is interested in Nickelodeon Magazine, Creator/NickJr, trick-or-treating and waiting for SantaClaus.



* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: Even though the show focuses on a team's attempts to take over the world, not much is shown of such and the series is mostly lighthearted comedy and parody.

!!This series provides examples of:
* FiveFiveFive: As Weas talks about the Imaginary Friend Killer 5000, the number "1-555-000-0000" flashes on the screen.
* TheAllegedCar: The Weaselmobile's top speed isn't five miles an hour. It's seven. It was the best he could afford on [[LintValue a budget of 23 dollars and a stick of gum.]]
* ArtEvolution: The series goes from very [[AdobeFlash Flash]]-influenced animation with same-width pencil outlines to a [[OffModel very messy]] but more varied style in episode 9 that eventually evens out through the rest of the series.
* BaitAndSwitch: In the episode where Jimbob goes to jail, an EstablishingShot of "The Big House" occurs, but a zoom out reveals the jail of New Jersey right next to it.
* {{Bathos}}: "I got all the weapons and the page of Nickelodeon Magazine that Jim wanted."
* BigBlackout: The pilot episode "The Dark Storm", as well as the sprite comic it's based on, is based on a blackout caused by a WeatherControlMachine.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Done often enough that the characters complain about it in the early episodes.
* CallBack: In episode 4, Nar accidentally reads a line from the pilot.
* {{Catchphrase}}:
** Weas: "This is a fine thing."
** Jimbob: "Fix my saxophone!" Apparently based on an old running gag.
* CoincidentalBroadcast: Inexplicably interrupts a ''video game'' in The Dark Storm.
* CutawayGag: Used more often in earlier episodes.
* DeathIsCheap: Several deaths with unexplained recoveries.
* DeletedScene: {{Invoked|Trope}} in the pilot to HandWave how they get from the ground to the blimp.
* FingerprintingAir: Weas manages to find imaginary fingerprints to incriminate Mitri's imaginary friend.
* {{Joisey}}
* JustOneMoreLevel:
** In the pilot, Nar is addicted to video games, going to a handheld game when the power goes out and eventually going out in severe weather to get batteries.
* LazyArtist: Discussed in a self-deprecating form; for example, Nar and Mitri, apparently walking, are shown to just be moving up and down in front of a scrolling background.
* MetaphoricallyTrue: Weas says burying dead bodies in a landfill is helping the environment…in a way.
* MistakenIdentity: Jimbob [[spoiler:and, later, Nar]] is mistaken for Weas and arrested by police.
* MotionBlur: Uses the smear variant often.
* MythologyGag: Several references are made to the original comics, one a sprite comic and one hand-drawn.
* NotSoImaginaryFriend: Mitri's imaginary friend, Bob, kills Nar and Jimbob.
* OffTheChart: Nar's "dwindling!" monthly pay goes below the line.
* TheOmnipresent: In the words of Mitri, "I'm everywhere. And Nowhere. Like a ghost or something!"
* Revenge: Bob kills Nar and Jimbob, so Weas and Mitri get to kill Bob.
* SelfDeprecation:
** Nar makes a statement by talking to his fanbase, but Weas notices that no one is present.
** When Weas says Nar may just have lost some of their viewers, Nar says, "''Both'' of them?!"
* ShoutOut:
** The computer Nar uses in "Virus" is a Compy 387, in homage to ''WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail''.
** The Official Weasel Code of Law says "Literature/WarAndPeace" on the cover.
** The Commander and Allon from ''WebAnimation/SpaceTree'', who at the time were themselves in jail, appear in the jail episode.
* ShowWithinAShow: "The Nar Show" and "The Weasel Dating Game", which feature in back-to-back episodes.
* SimpletonVoice: Jimbob.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Having just one female cast member is {{discussed|Trope}} as "the law of webtoons". Sapphire fills this role for most of the series, though Cass briefly acts as a second female character.
* TheTelevisionTalksBack: Parodied.
-->And later… people talking to their [=TVs=] and expecting answers. [[FilmAtEleven Tonight at 11]].
* TemptingFate: Parodied in the pilot, as Nar has to say he hopes the power doesn't go out twice to take effect and noted the cartoon cliché antics are slipping. Nar also says the "nothing bad could possibly happen" line.
** And in the first episode:
--->Nar: What could possibly go wrong?
--->Weas: A lot, now that you said that.
* VillainProtagonist: As Weas allegedly attempts to take over the world.
* WeatherControlMachine: Dr. Schnoz causes a blackout with one in the pilot.
* WhatDoesThisButtonDo: As Jimbob pokes around with the flying machine, he hits the AOL Instant Messenger button.
* WithCatlikeTread: "Dr. Schnoz's secret weather-ruining blimp thing. You never saw us." A zeppelin in bright red.
* YouFool: After Nar donates money for a country club to charity, Weas says:
-->You fool! There's no such thing as charity!
* YourMom: A brief exchange in episode six, ending with "''You're your own mom!''"
