- Hilarious in Hindsight: in the first episode of Oishi High School Battle has the cast talk about wanting to see Puss In Boots 2. This is hilarious not just because Puss in Boots: The Last Wish was made but because a lot of people repeatedly wanted to see it in theaters when it came out.
- Crosses the Line Twice: Most, if not all of their shows have crossed this line at one point or another.
- Designated Hero: Derf of Snowjacked. He frequently kills innocent people (and non-people), and is overall a very unpleasant person.
- Same for Jimmy in Do's and Don'ts.
- As of Episode #5, Oishi is this, after she orchestrates the murder of her teacher out of jealousy.
- Ensemble Dark Horse:
- Zombies vs. Ninjas is widely agreed to be one of the best and funniest series of Shut Up! Cartoons. Despite its popularity, the series only got two seasons.
- Oishi High School Battle seems to be very popular (partially due to the title character's talent). It's to the point where the Smosh guys themselves personally advertised the show on their main channel (granted, they mentioned the other two shows that premiered with it, but the majority of time was given to Oishi. She even makes a cameo in the video. The fact that it got a Prequel series right after the season finale further supports this.
- Smosh Babies is considered by many to be Shut Up! Cartoons' best and most popular series, and is its longest running one with a total of five seasons and 56 episodes.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: Episode 9 of Zombies vs. Ninjas featured Donald Trump as a Death Seeker due to having an iron lung. This was already pretty funny in context, but it's even moreso when the real-life Trump would eventually become a widely controversial figure among the public.
- Ho Yay: Fuzzy and the president, one sided on Fuzzy's part.
- Les Yay side of this has a one sided (at the moment) with Debs towards Pubertina.
- Moral Event Horizon: Jimmy eating Susie in "Deserted Island", to the point where The Narrator (normally the cause of the chaos through his tips) refuses to let him live it down for the rest of the episode. Lucky for Susie, the series has Negative Continuity.
- He also decides to sacrifice the dog in order to summon a demonic entity which destroys the Earth just because he didn't like it.
- Black Hole trying to kill Baby Earth by pulling him into his atom ripping void, which sounds bad enough till you realize Earth is portrayed as a toddler and the Black Hole situation has strong pedophile undertones and the fact that he tries to kill an infant is downright sick.
- Nightmare Fuel: The Purple Goblin Head in Munroe episode 5.
- Narm: Pubertina Episode 16 with some memetic faces during the dress up scene.
- Nausea Fuel: Any and every scene involving the dirty diaper shed in Smosh Babies.
- Retroactive Recognition: Emily Brundige, the creator of Pubertina, would later develop Harvey Street Kids for Netflix- and yes, her artstyle has improved GREATLY since Pubertina.
- Special Effect Failure: The puppet models used for Zombies vs. Ninjas suffer from a lot of greenscreen color spill.
- Squick: The tampon song from episode #3 of Pubertina.
- Pubertina's reaction to seeing a picture of what is presumed to be a penis in episode #4.
- People's reaction to Pubertina as a whole.
- Really Freaking Embarrassing is made of this.
- Pubertina's reaction to seeing a picture of what is presumed to be a penis in episode #4.
