* HotTeacher: Gina, who is surprisingly pretty with a very nice figure. Subverted in that Allen inexplicably hates her and doesn't show any attraction to her.Instead he finds the fat elderly principle attractive.

* DoggedNiceGuy: Jeremy and Patrick. They're nice people who had to feed up with Allen's, and in the case of Jeremy, Richard's abhorrent behavior.

* NobodyPoops: Subverted; Allen Gregory craps himself when Principal Gottlieb slaps him for rejecting his advances upon her.
* OnlySaneMan: Julie, Jeremy, Gina, and Principal Gottlieb. They're practically the characters the viewers would rather root for because of how much malicious Allen and Richard are to everyone.

* {{Jerkass}} / JerkWithAHeartOfJerk:
** '''Allen Gregory''', almost unrepentantly so. This has a lot to do with how he was raised, and so has little to no tact when dealing with people, much to the annoyance of just about everyone he irritates with his behavior.

* AdorablyPrecociousChild: Averted with Allen Gregory if the show's page image is any indication. He is pint-sized and precocious yet selfish, arrogant, and manipulative, making him intolerant rather than adorable.

-->'''Allen Gregory:''' I think it would just need to be regular sex. Like, one person should be running away, saying, "No, I don't feel like it," and the other person should completely ignore that and be like, "C'mon, Jeremy, just go with it!" and then there should be a slap, and then somebody should plead to God, like, "What has my life become?!" And then I think we should just wrap it up with a little crying in the bathroom.

* DomesticAbuse: Richard is this to Jeremy, having forced the man into an unwanted sexual relationship with him when Jeremy happens to be straight. Allen's aforementioned recollection of their antics when they're alone suggests that a lot of this is going on, with Jeremy on the receiving end of all of it.

* [[HasTwoMommies Has Two Daddies]]: Richard and Jeremy to Allen, the former being biologically related to him.

* DeadpanSnarker: Yeah... basically everyone, ''especially'' Allen and Judie.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: Jeremy is literally the heterosexual life partner of Richard.

* WorldOfJerkass: The only character who ''isn't'' a huge jerk is Jeremy, and he's constantly overruled by Richard or Allen.

* LimitedAnimation: The show has such stilted and lifeless animation to that the animators refuse to give anyone in the background any animation whatsoever. It's produced by [[Creator/BentoBoxEntertainment the same studio]] as ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'' after all.

* TheBadGuyWins: Given the DesignatedHero status of our main protagonists, the show practically runs on this trope.
* BaldOfEvil: Richard.

* ChildrenAreInnocent: Played straight with Patrick. Averted with Allen Gregory.
* ComedicSociopathy: The comedic part may be subject to opinion.

* DeadpanSnarker: Yeah... basically everyone.
* DepravedHomosexual: Richard.

* DoggedNiceGuy: Jeremy, Patrick.

* HateSink: It's pretty hard to think that Richard De Longpre was ''not'' meant to be this to the audience. He's a humongous JerkAss who acts TooDumbToLive, was KickedUpstairs in his own company due to his sheer incompetence, was outright stated to have stalked his life partner into making him leave his family, routinely mistreats said partner, and seems to take pride in how much of an arrogant, self-serving, underhanded slimeball he is.

* HeliumSpeech: Patrick possesses one.

* HotTeacher: Gina. Subverted in that Allen hates her and doesn't show any attraction to her.

* OnlySaneMan: Julie, Jeremy, Gina, and Principal Gottlieb.

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: One whole episode focuses on Allen Gregory attempting to prove he's not racist after openly mocking Guillermo, who's Mexican-American; predictably, he only solidifies this accusation in front of his peers, and doesn't treat their Mexican housekeeper any better before firing her just for using the restroom.

* PrinceCharmingWannabe: Allen, big time. He not only hits on his 60-year-old principal, but insists that the two of them are meant to be together, despite her protests and the fact that she is married.
* ProtagonistTitle

* SadistTeacher: Allen Gregory views his teacher Gina as this, whenever she tries to assert control over the class. That said, Gina does occasionally indulge in some schadenfreude at Allen's expense due to a personal grudge.

* TroublingUnchildlikeBehaviour: Allen, very much so. To give just one example: The second episode's plot is about him lying about making a ''pornographic film with his 70-year-old principal''.
* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Allen, though its hard to tell if he is supposed to be funny.

* PopularHistory: Averted. The show is said to be set in the 60s, as there are many references to 1960s pop culture, yet at [[AnachronismStew the same time has contemporary stuff like online gaming, [=DVDs=], and being set after the Great Recession, things that clearly didn't exist until decades later]].

** Allen's basically an elementary school–aged [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Stewie Griffin]] minus the supervillain kick, or possibly a non-obese [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark Eric Cartman]] as well, minus anything that makes those characters funny.

* PrecociousCrush: Allen Gregory has a very disturbing interest in his seventy-year-old principal.

* TheSociopath: Richard admits honesty is something he does as a last resort. He is extremely entitled and will do anything to fulfill his random whims, whether it's a ruin a straight man's family so that he can "convert" him or throw tantrums until his father gives him a job, a fake on at that, that lets him be in a position of power.

* FullNameBasis: For one reason or another, Allen Gregory is refered to as such by everyone.
