  • Awesome Music: The title song, no matter how much he insists "Don't get excited".
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: "Bedazzled" by Drimble Wedge & The Vegetation, with its deadpan, unemotional vocal and Anti-Love Song lyrics, is basically the first Goth Rock song ever.note  No less than Nick Cave has done a Cover Version.
  • Ho Yay: George seems to have a crush on Stanley, which is expressed by pulling metaphorical pigtails, giving the last cookie just to see his crush smile, and then, promptly sticking his tongue out at said crush when someone else comes near just to make sure his reputation stays intact. He also seems very much the Tsundere in his feelings towards God, wanting to be with him and please him but not willing to be an Extreme Doormat. Stanley is happy to have a friend in George, and well, this incarnation of God seems to be a bit sociopathic.
  • Retroactive Recognition: Inspector Clarke is played by Michael Bates, who would later be best known for playing Blamire in Last of the Summer Wine and Rangi Ram in It Ain't Half Hot, Mum.
