Throughout the ten-episode series, Horace struggles with his sense of responsibility for the family business and his relationships with his dysfunctional family. While its predecessor Louie was a dark comedy, Horace and Pete crosses the line into full blown tragedy.

Black Comedy: A vast majority of whatever comedy there is is this, thanks to the dark nature of the show.

Chekhov's Gun : The bar doesn't serve mixed drinks, and therefore doesn't stock the limes and lemons that usually go with them. Comes into play in the last episode. Big time.

And I Must Scream

comment
And I Must Scream: Pete's description of living in the mental hospital (before Probitol enabled him to be OK) makes it 100% clear that not being in control of his mind is hell on Earth for him. This makes it extra sad when he ends up killing Horace, and will most likely end up living the rest of his life in a mental institution or prison.

Abusive Parents: In the finale, we see that Present-day Horace and Pete's father fits this to a tee.

Ambiguous Disorder: It's never said exactly what Pete suffers from. There are hints at OCD, but he also has hallucinations.
