Immediate Self-Contradiction: In the first clip, Bill claims to the nuns escorting him to a convention that being a detective is a godly and wholesome pursuit… right before asking them to hold a jug of stakeout urine while he gets a bag of severed fingers autographed.

Animation Age Ghetto: Parodied in universe - in the Indiegogo video, Tim Standing, upon learning the show is to be animated, declares animation as being for babies and then tells any children watching to steal their parents’ credit card information and send it to him.

Nun Too Holy: Played with. The nuns who work at the orphanage are cynical, but ultimately dedicated to their cause.

Beware the Nice Ones: Bill the orphan is introduced in the first clip as a wholesome little chap, but the next clip shows him flying into a murderous rage when a crowd laughs at him.
