Tropes associated with Gerrit Graham:
- Alan Smithee: Sometimes used the synonym "Bud T. Chud" — a reference to his role in C.H.U.D. II: Bud the Chud — for projects he wanted to distance himself from.
-
Spiritual Predecessor: He can be considered this to Alan Tudyk, due to the Celebrity Resemblance in terms of both physical appearance, their character acting filmography and both being well-known in cult followings.
