* MexicansLoveSpeedyGonzales: The films do play into a few North Dublin stereotypes (robbers everywhere, lots of cursing, people getting into fights) but that just makes it ActuallyPrettyFunny for some. A good portion of the comments say something to the effect of "yeah, that happens".

* SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct: While Jordan Lennon and Greg Young had already been in the industry, the other cast members would earn their acclaim further down the line.
** Adam Douglas showed off some nice comic timing in ''WebVideo/MrPeterson'', and then later his dramatic chops in the World War I short ''{{Film/Fallen 2021}}'' - playing a shell-shocked soldier trying to hold onto his idealism.
** Liam Gaynor took a break from acting for a while, but earned lots of praise for his likewise [[TomHanksSyndrome dramatic turn]] in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYAmQJCv4FM Family Painting]]'' and its sequel/prequel - as a grieving brother afraid to care for his remaining family.
** Mason Creedy would later best be known for his music, but would show off his acting chops in the video for Jordan Lennon's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQMsUBoYJDM Poisoned City]]" as a young drug dealer. And then later in the short ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niNAPZp-CBo Vultures]]'' as a reluctant criminal.



* IronyAsSheIsCast: Eoin tries to sing "Deck the Halls" in the ChristmasSpecial and gets a "that's rotten" in response from Jake. Greg Young is in fact a very [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQXpjunQNHY talented singer]].

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: Luke's status as TheFriendNobodyLikes became less funny in light of Liam Gaynor opening up about his mental health problems, and admitting he at one point tried to hang himself.

* ToughActToFollow: The first film was a SleeperHit that got over 300,000 viewers, and the cast and crew admitted it made people in their community know what they were up to. The ChristmasSpecial didn't get as big numbers, and Jordan Lennon's next two projects - a StillbornFranchise called ''Poisoned Minds'' and a horror film ''Blood on the Bark'' - were met with SoOkayItsAverage reactions.

** Bobby Calloway (who was not in the film) on the ''Podcast/ActorsLifePodcast'' admitted to both Jordan Lennon and Liam Gaynor that seeing the film is how he knows them and Adam Douglas (he knew Greg Young beforehand) - and while they might be a little ashamed of the quality, it holds a lot of value to him because he wouldn't know them without it.

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments:
** During the montage of the exam at the start, one student can be seen falling asleep and falling off the chair in the background.
** Jake asks Luke for a pencil and is told he doesn't have one. Later he discovers that Luke has an entire collection of pens and didn't offer because Jake had only asked for a pencil. Jordan Lennon's DeathGlare is priceless.
** The famous scene of Eoin arriving...and immediately having his suitcase stolen by a random EnfanteTerrible.
** Jake photobombing the Finglas News reporter.
** Eoin donning an Elvis costume for the party, getting a priceless reaction from Jake.
--> "What the fuck is ''that''! That's disgusting. Get that off you now!"
** Behind the scenes, the extras for the party scene ended up bringing their own booze and actually drinking between takes - with the result that most of them were completely drunk by the end of the night.
** Luke strikes again in the Christmas Special. After being asked to put €20 on the gas and electricity meter, he physically tapes the notes to them ([[DontExplainTheJoke when in actuality Jake meant for him to go to the shop and top up the credit]]).
** Eoin Facetiming Jake when he's about to take a shower and mistakenly thinking he's completely naked. The fun starts when Eoin's offscreen dad joins in.
--> '''Eoin:''' Dad, don't come in! Jake's naked on Facetime!
--> '''Eoin's dad:''' What's going on in there? Jake, put your jocks on!
** And the completely random wink Luke gives to Mrs Murphy before she leaves. Jimbo then drags him into the room, presumably to prevent things from getting inappropriate.
* HeartwarmingInHindsight:
** Liam Gaynor admitted that, despite having a passion for acting as a child, he lost interest in it and only half-heartedly auditioned for ''The Nutters''. He credits that, and the resulting friendship with Jordan Lennon, for reigniting his passion for filmmaking in general.
** Mason Creedy likewise describes the majority of the crew as FireForgedFriends who became so through the process of making it, and have all gone onto to collaborate many more times.
** Bobby Calloway (who was not in the film) on the ''Podcast/ActorsLifePodcast'' admitted to both Jordan Lennon and Liam Gaynor that seeing the film is how he knows them and Adam Douglas (he knew Greg Young beforehand) - and while they might be a little ashamed of the quality, it holds a lot of value to him because he wouldn't know them without it.



** Mason Creedy playing the victim of a drive-by in the short ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1jdDDVntq0 Poisoned Minds]]'' makes it look like Jake got his own back on Ryan in the end.
** Jimbo being the smartest one of the group is amusing considering Adam Douglas plays TheDitz in the film ''Mr Peterson''. Greg Young stars in that film too, playing a far ''less'' innocent character.

Added DiffLines:

* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Jordan Lennon's shirtlessness attracted plenty of viewers.
* DiscreditedMeme:
** Adam Douglas got sick of people constantly quoting the "organise a sesh" line.
** Similarly for Greg Young, who had people yelling "put down the fucking suitcase" based off one of Eoin's earliest scenes.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Eoin proved to be a big favorite, with the rest of the cast agreeing that Greg Young was the standout performance. He's a OneSceneWonder in the ChristmasSpecial.
* FansPreferTheNewHer: Eoin's Elvis costume would in fact have been lovely to wear to the party, according to some.
* FirstInstallmentWins: The first film has more views and is considered funnier.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** Mason Creedy playing the victim of a drive-by in the short ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1jdDDVntq0 Poisoned Minds]]'' makes it look like Jake got his own back on Ryan in the end.

* {{Moe}}:
** Luke would be annoying if he weren't so adorably ditzy.
** Eoin too, given his innocence to the WretchedHive he's inhabiting.
** Jake of all people manages to achieve this with the "Rocco the red-nosed reindeer" bit.
* OneSceneWonder: Eoin's father, an entirely offscreen character in the ChristmasSpecial, who nonetheless steals the scene with his voice alone.
