  • Fountain of Memes: Pretty much any sketch with Peter Moon or Magda Szubanski in it.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • During the majority of the show, Bob Hawke was the Prime Minister of Australia and he and and many politicians were the object of satire. Paul Keating was portrayed as the economy's worst nightmare and John Howard was portrayed as an enemy of Bob Hawke (due to belonging to the rival political party) and a complete peon. During the run of the show, Keating replaced Hawke as the real life Prime Minister after a leadership challenge. Howard ended up beating Keating in 1996 and lasting 11 years in office.
    • One sketch has a closeted homosexual tell his parents that his boyfriend is actually Michelle Pfieffer and that she's doing a movie with Jack Nicholson.
    • Any sketches where a character played by Magda Szubanksi talks about homosexuality became this once she came out.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Skippy the bush kangaroo meets The Exorcist. The dated special effects and taxidermied kangaroo prop manage to make the scene creepier than intended.
  • Signature Scene: The Kung Fu parody, mainly for the corpsing. The sketch itself hasn't aged quite so well.
