- Ensemble Dark Horse: Fearless Fly is the most popular segment after Milton himself. His segment was in every episode of the series even in a few episodes with 2 segments of Milton.
- Fair for Its Day: Milton is one of several cartoons of its time that mocked commonplace racial stereotyping of the time with absurd parody, but the satire has not aged well over the decades and often looks insensitive to modern eyes if it's even recognized as satire.
- Genius Bonus: Stuffy Durma owes his name to stuffed derma, aka kishke (intestines), an Eastern European Jewish version of a sausage somewhat similar to haggis.
- Older Than They Think: Many people think erroneously that Milton the Monster was an attempt to capitalize on the horror-comedy trend exemplified by The Addams Family and The Munsters. In truth, Milton had been in production before either of those prime-time shows.
- Values Dissonance: You'd never be able to get away with characters like Doctor Goo Fee or Gung Ho nowadays.
