| Aqua Teen Hunger Force | comment |
A weird, crude, and often completely random original series from Williams Street, created by Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro, Aqua Teen Hunger Force is a show on Cartoon Network's [adult swim] lineupnote Internationally, it has aired in Canada on Teletoon as well as G4 Canada's ADd block and in Australia on SBS2 which has nothing to do with water (save their neighbor's pool and the occasional beach trip), teenagers, or whatever a "hunger force" is.note At most, in the three lead characters' primitive debut appearance on Space Ghost Coast to Coast, the name "Teen Hunger Force" was derived from their mission to conquer hunger in teens.Instead, it covers the adventures of three amateur detectives/superheroes (only for the first few episodes, though — the rest of the series has them reduced to bums; this is commented on at least twice later in the series) living in New Jersey. The Aqua Teens originated as one-off characters in a formerly unmade episode of Space Ghost Coast to Coast (a fellow Williams Street production), but were eventually given their own show — with changes to their appearances and personalities.The eponymous "heroes" are Master Shake (Dana Snyder), a lazy, insulting, anthropomorphic milkshake who is the self-proclaimed leader of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force; Frylock (Carey Means), an intelligent box of French fries who is the extremely competent and halfway-morally-decent member of the force (except during his own moments of amoral behavior); and Meatwad (Dave Willis), a dim-but-lovable blob of raw meat who is frequently bamboozled, teased, and/or tortured by Master Shake.Their "adventures" (such as they are) are usually limited to making each other's lives hell or doing the same to their next-door neighbor Carl Brutananadilewski (also Willis) — a fat, bald, slovenly Joe Average — by borrowing his stuff or swimming in his backyard pool without permission. The Aqua Teens occasionally have run-ins with bizarre monsters or aliens who turn out to be more obnoxious than they are evil. The best examples are two sets of recurring nuisances: the Mooninites (Ignignokt and Err), two aliens from the moon with an uncanny resemblance to sprites from an Atari 2600 game, an unshakable belief that they are superior to everyone else, and a predilection for tobacco, alcohol, petty larceny, and flipping people the bird; and the Plutonians (Emory and Oglethorpe), two spiny, cone-shaped aliens with designs on world domination and nowhere near enough competence or common sense to pull it off.As noted above, the show is notable for a heavy dose of slapstick, surrealism, lots of Stuff Blowing Up, the Aqua Teens' belongings being destroyed (often through explosions), and stream-of-silliness dialogue. ("Ever since my son was... never conceived because I never had consensual sex without money involved, I've looked at you as a... a thing I could live next door to, in accordance with state law. [...] Whoa, let's not put people on the spot here! WHO ARE YOU TAKING TO THAT FRIGGIN' SUPER BOWL?!")The first episode of the show aired as a preview on Adult Swim on December 30, 2000, and it has since run for 11 complete seasons. For the first two seasons, the show featured teasers starring Dr. Weird (Clay Martin Croker), a Mad Scientist living in an abandoned New Jersey insane asylum along with his long-suffering assistant, Steve (also voiced by Croker), who may or may not have had a hand in creating the Aqua Teensnote fans have long speculated over the meaning of a picture, seen in Frylock's room on occasion, that shows Frylock with a much younger Dr. Weird. While the earliest episodes of the series showed Dr. Weird revealing his latest invention, only for it to escape and cause mayhem for the Aqua Teens, later teasers had nothing to do with the episode that followed and got progressively more strange as a result: compare teasers from early in the first season such as the pilot (Dr. Weird reveals Rabbot, sprays it in the face with perfume because "that's how it happened to me", causing it to bust out of the wall and escape, destroying Carl's car in the process) or the third episode (Dr. Weird reveals the creation of Mothmonsterman, who promptly escapes out the Rabbot-shaped hole in the wall and heads for the bright lights emitted by Shake's new "Shake Signal" helmet) to the eighteenth (a giant hand comes down from the sky and steals Dr. Weird's lab entirely, Dr. Weird and Steve escaping along the rope bridge while screaming "RUN, FAT BOY, RUN!") or the twentieth episode of the second season (Steve is ordering hoagies for lunch over the phone and asks Dr. Weird if he should get one for him, Dr. Weird declares his hand has been eaten by his ass before the rest of him is pulled in as well, so Steve tells them he's only getting one hoagie). In the third season, the Dr. Weird clips were replaced with "Spacecataz", a failed pilot (split up into multiple parts) that followed the story of an escalating prank war between the Plutonians and the Mooninites (the full, uncut pilot is an extra on one of the DVD sets for the show). Episodes in the following seasons had no opening clips, with the exception of a cold opening being used in the Season 8 premiere as a one-off gag, to complete the illusion that the season would be about something and not more concentrated weirdness.After Season 7, the show changed its name, and the producers said they planned to reboot the series from the ground up and revisit the notion of the characters being detectives. As you might expect, the show didn't change squat; in each successive season past the seventh, the show received a new title and opening/closing sequence, but remained otherwise unchanged in terms of content. Willis later stated that this was an unsuccessful stunt to generate buzz. The name changes are as follows: Season 8 (2011): Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1 Season 9 (2012): Aqua Something You Know Whatever Season 10 (2013): Aqua TV Show Show Season 11 (2015): Aqua Teen Hunger Force ForeverOn April 27, 2015, Adult Swim announced that the eleventh season of the show, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forevernote The Working Title was initially thought to be Aqua TiVo Avoidance Plan, but was later given a Meaningful Rename, would be the final one, echoing the official word of Dave Willis, who had confirmed the news just a short while earlier; the final episode of the season aired on August 30 of that year. However, a five-episode Season 12 was officially announced on January 25, 2023, and it premiered on November 26 that year. At the time of its conclusion, the show was the longest-running Adult Swim series ever; it was later surpassed by Robot Chicken in 2020.A movie based on the show, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters, was released in April 2007 during the interim between Seasons 4 and 5. It is the first and only feature film adapted from an Adult Swim series, and the second-ever feature film adapted from a Cartoon Network property after The Powerpuff Girls Movie. Written and directed by both show creators, the movie (loosely) explores the origins of the Aqua Teens amidst the typical insanity of their misadventures. It additionally "premiered" days before its theatrical release (yes, it had an actual theatrical release) on Adult Swim as an April Fool's gag: while the first couple minutes played in full, the network quickly shrunk its video down to an unwatchable size, put its inaudible audio track on the rarely-used SAP channel, and made frequent notices of said premiere during the regularly scheduled programming (i.e. reruns of Futurama and Family Guy on the network) with ads that took up 3/4 of the screen. The movie was additionally submitted for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature; it did not get nominated.In the years following the movie's release, the possibility of a sequel titled Death Fighter was floated around; production on the sequel was confirmed in 2010, but five years later, it was ultimately scrapped. In 2021, Adult Swim revealed that a sequel to the movie (as well as films for other network powerhouses Metalocalypse and The Venture Bros.), titled Aqua Teen Forever Plantasm, would be released to home video that fall. It wound up being released direct-to-video in November 2022 and on Max in February 2023, in addition to being aired on Adult Swim in March 2023.A Spin-Off series of shorts, titled Aquadonk Side Pieces and starring Aqua Teen's Rogues Gallery, ran from April 18-28, 2022 on Adult Swim's YouTube channel.A golf game based on the show, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am, was released in November 2007 on the PlayStation 2. In the game, you alternate between hitting the golf ball (or, occasionally, Meatwad) towards the hole, racing a golf cart against frat aliens, and killing a variety of frankly insane opponents (ranging from robotic turkeys to mummies) with everything from golf clubs to swords to chainsaws to an electric guitar.The show was also almost Toonami's first original series. No, really.Carl also does a "Stone Cold Lock of the Century... Of the Week" during the NFL season. | |

There's also the Dr. Weird intros; they only appeared in the first two seasons, but the intros themselves also demonstrate this trope as for the first few episodes, Dr. Weird's actions actually affected the plot (e.g. "Bus of the Undead" has Mothmonsterman break free of Dr. Weird's castle, through the giant Rabbot-sized hole still left in the wall from the pilot, and is drawn to the Aqua Teens' house by the several powerful floodlights making up Master Shake's "Shake Signal"). Before long, the major defining characteristic of Dr. Weird's scenes became that nothing he did ever had any effect on the plot and was completely forgotten about the second the actual episode started. | |

Darker and Edgier: Starting with Season 4. The absurdist feel of the previous seasons remains, though the humor becomes FAR darker, the violence ramps up to startling degrees and the tone of various episodes becomes noticeably bleaker. | |

Title Drop: "Truly, they were... an Aqua Teen Hunger Force."

Also in The Movie opening credits (and by extension similar [adult swim] bumpers) are parodied as first a shot of the Williams Street logo appears with ominous sounding music, both fade out. A few seconds later the same music and background fade in with "Presents" written in the middle, and these fade out. A few seconds later the same thing happens with "This Movie" written on it, which gets yanked off after only five seconds. | |

Senseless Sacrifice: Happens to the titular character from Ol' Drippy. Drippy tells Shake to eat him as it's the only cure for Shake's illness. It's quickly revealed that Drippy is suggesting this because half of his composition is penicillin. When Frylock points out that they have penicillin in the bathroom Drippy stops and tells him to get that instead, but Shake, liking how Drippy tastes and wanting to traumatize Meatwad opts to continue eating Drippy. Drippy being an Extreme Doormat is unable to say no. | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_1fb440a6 | comment |
Voluntary Shapeshifting Meatwad. It's suggested that the only shapes Meatwad can take are the two he exhibits in the title sequence of every episode: a hotdog and an igloo. Although in the pilot episode, he was also able to take the form of a "meat bridge," and during his brief time as a circus attraction, he managed to take on the shape of a Samurai Lincoln (which he insisted was supposed to be Wayne Gretzky) after repeatedly shifting back and forth between the hotdog and igloo forms was starting to get old. In the movie, he can also shift into a large building. He never changed into it before because no one asked. He can also change into a fist and flip people the bird. One episode had Meatwad change into a tornado with accompanying winds, which implies his shapeshifting abilities are far more powerful than Meatwad's mind (and the animation budget) allow for. | |

Black Comedy | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_222dc873 | comment |
Black Comedy: All over the place, especially starting from Season 4. Most of the cast dies in hilariously gruesome ways, there's numerous jokes about things such as animal cruelty, disabilities, tragedies, rape, etc., and line-crossing is practically one of the show's trademarks. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: The "Spacecataz" shorts were intended to be the first of a three-part miniseries, but the plans for it were cut short before the other two could be made. The full-length short was cut up for use as the third season's cold openings, but the season ended before they could get to the ending (though it's available in full on the volume 4 DVD). | |

Devoured by the Horde | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_23f80ecd | comment |
Devoured by the Horde: In Season 8 "Vampirus", Frylock tests to see if Master Shake's blood is the cure for the vampire-inducing virus when vampire zombies have taken over the city. When Frylock tests the cure on Carl, a lot of vampire bats starts biting Carl proving that Shake's blood isn't the cure. When Shake tries to splash the cure on Carl, the vampire bats transform into vampire zombies and they start tearing Carl apart to the point where we can see his skeleton. In the series "finale" of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Master Shake performs a Heroic Sacrifice to save Meatwad from the clams so he can get Frylock a new jewel by getting himself devoured by the clams. | |

Only Sane Man FRYLOCK. And even he has his occasional bouts of insanity. Carl may fit a bit better, and he's still pretty eccentric. Ol' Drippy is portrayed as the nicest, most sane character in the show. Major Shake manages some pretty normal conversations with Frylock during his episode. Willie Nelson seems like one initially until he turns out to be a serial killer. | |

Master Shake in "Reedickyoulus" manages not only to get away with killing both HIS AND MEATWAD'S cats, but he also killed all their other pets the same way. Granted they do come back as zombies thanks to Carl's radioactive poop and manage to zombify him, though he doesn't see it as a punishment, rather he remains completely indifferent to his situation. The only thing really different about him other than the obvious zombifying is he develops a craving for brains and gay zombie sex. Plus he's virtually immortal, especially since here Removing the Head or Destroying the Brain doesn't work. Frylock ends up giving Shake exactly what he wants to get rid of him, a gay zombie ape party bus. | |

Ass Pull: In "100", Shake invoked it by name on Frylock's random 100-related ramblings, which start reasonable (100 cents in a dollar, 100 yards in a football fieldnote ignoring the end zones, which add another combined 20) before quickly moving into completely asinine (100 tiles in a standard Scrabble set, 9 plus 8 and minus 6 is 11 which is 89 away from 100). | |

Take That Me: In "Jumpy George", a woman leaving her kids with Meatwad says: "They're allowed to watch half an hour of television, and only cartoons. Which means no Cartoon Network." note For those who don't get it, this episode aired around the time CN started pushing out their animated content in favor of live-action works. In "The Granite Family", they meet a time traveler who warns people about things. His name is "Time Warner". Essentially they get mad at him for being a copyright Nazi and not letting them do anything related to time-travel related because he owns all the movies in which they travel through time, and for not letting them do anything related to The Granite Family. | |

| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Mooninite attacks, which supposedly will disintegrate anyone and anything, move at a rate of an inch per minute. And can get swatted away. The only person they successfully attacked was Carl, when he easily sidestepped the shot only for it to bounce off the glass of his house's back door and rebound into him, and in the end all it apparently did was teleport him to the Moon. The eHelmet from "eDork". It's a helmet that's also a cellphone and can get a wide variety of pretty cool upgrades (from photo plugins to giant pianos that can be attached to the battery pack). However, this all makes the eHelmet extremely heavy, to the point where Master Shake couldn't even move. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: Or more like Shake does. He and Meatwad are shocked that Frylock has taken a job that entails putting poison gas in children's birthday balloons. Frylock is quick to scoff at Shake's sudden possession of a moral compass. He also seemed genuinely horrified when Meatwad implied that he was molested by a security guard in "Star Studded Christmas Spectacular Starring Rhon Geremi". While not as extreme as the other cases, he found the concept behind the stand in the mall food court Frylock gets them a job at (grinding down meat to liquid and selling it as a drink) to be disgusting, even questioning if it's okay to not take the bones out first. | |

He gets knocked out a moment later by the Phlebotinum of the episode. The hooker leaves, dragging the jar of pennies with her. In the penultimate episode, he gives Shake 20 dollars in Susan B. Anthony coins to pay for a hooker because he loves the irony of paying for a sex act with a feminist icon. | |

Kick the Dog | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog "Super Birthday Snake" opens with Shake getting Meatwad a snake instead of the bunny he wanted. One thing leads to another, and the snake eats both Meatwad and Shake, then Frylock accidentally kills them when he blows the snake up in an attempt to free them. After this, whatever morality Frylock possessed goes out the window, and he gets some hookers, throws a loud party, and stabs Carl through the heart when he comes over the next morning to ask about the noise, simply because Carl pissed him off. The most infamous example would have to be in "Reedickyoulus", where Shake casually murders innocent kittens solely to traumatize Meatwad. In "Fry Legs", Frylock not only kills the boyfriend of a woman he's been crushing on, but also does so in front of said woman, and continues to hit on her as if it was nothing. In "Larry Miller Hair System", a salesman tries to sell Carl a toupee and shows him a simulation of what his life would be like if he had hair; The simulation Carl is a slim and handsome Christian, married with kids, and leads a happy, but boring and sexless life. Naturally, the real Carl is not thrilled about any of this, believing his simulation self "sold out", and after the salesman runs off to feed his gambling addiction, he starts giving the simulation Carl (who can hear the real Carl) advice that completely ruins his life; he gets fired from his job, his wife takes the kids and leaves him, and after being ordered by the real Carl to get rid of the only dignity he has left by shaving his hair off, he blows his brains out with a shotgun. In "Storage Zeebles", Carl, upon discovering a Sugar Bowl in the storage unit he purchased, takes all of the land's resources and bulldozes everything else, all out of sheer greed. Even when the natives' king is begging Carl to stop, he makes it abundantly clear that he gives absolutely zero fucks if they all starve and die. Which makes seeing the Night Wolf rip out his scrotum all the sweeter. | |

Cluster F-Bomb: "Dickesode". In some airings (and in the bumper for the original airing for the episode), there was a counter to show how many times the word "dick" was said. Played for Laughs in "Gee Whiz." In Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future: In a rare occurrence for him, Frylock dropped an almost disturbingly prolonged...everything-bomb when calling out the eponymous alien in Allen, Part 2. Click here for the uncensored DVD version. In the originally aired version and DVD release of Total Re-Carl, this lovely little paragraph can be seen on Fylock's computer when he has Carl's head hooked up to it: "Oh man, I swear to fucking God, Fry-man. I'm so fucking pissed right now. Oh, and by the way, I hope you enjoy your own shit, because I'm about to rip your motherfucking throat out, and shove it up straight up your ass, so that you have to fart to fucking breathe, fucker." | |

Flipping the Bird | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_364b9be6 | comment |
Flipping the Bird: The Mooninites (most especially Ignignokt) love to do this, typically after Frylock sends them running back to the Moon. In their first appearance, they try to get the ever-gullible Meatwad to do it, despite him lacking opposable digits of any kind. The equally digit-less Plutonians attempt to do this during the Spacecataz shorts, to little success. "I hope he can see this, Err, because I'm doing it as hard as I've ever done it before." Master Shake in several of the later episodes. Meatwad actually manages to do this in one episode, transforming into a giant fist and then raising and lowering the middle finger while near a busy highway. Carl flips the bird with both middle fingers during his "little brother's" soccer game in Aqua Something You Know Whatever. | |

Ruder and Cruder: ATHF's TV series had its early seasons use mild to moderate profanity, but the later seasons use stronger language. It's bleeped, of course, given that it originally aired on basic cable, but context makes it clear enough what they're trying to say. As you might expect, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters uses even more profanity than its televised source material, but it goes all in on hard profanity, sexual slang, and even a homophobic slur or two. | |

Clone Degeneration | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_38326b11 | comment |
Clone Degeneration: In "The Cloning", the television that Frylock clones turns evil, due to the molecular structure breaking down as a result of cloning too many TVs. Later in the episode, the Aqua Teens end up making George Washington out of dollar bills... who then gets shot in the face. Repeatedly. An earlier episode spoofs the trope with a physically mutated and clearly failed clone of Shake. Not only are the clone's attempts to pass himself off as the original pathetically obvious, he also turns out to be much kinder and more rational than Shake, and Shake's friends actually like him better than the Jerkass original. | |

Speaking of which, there was also the Spacecataz intros during season 3; those intros instead revolved around the Plutonians and Mooninites going at each others' throats (with the Mooninites often getting the last laugh). Like the Dr. Weird intros, they had no affect on the overall plot of the actual episode and was completely forgotten afterwards. note These particular intros were actually part of a Poorly Disguised Pilot for a spin-off featuring the Plutonians and Mooninites. | |

End-of-Series Awareness: Parodied in "100". Frylock becomes obsessed with the number 100, with Shake soon learning that it's the show's 100th episode, which means that they can now cash in the series for syndication royalties. Unfortunately, because each episode is around 11-minutes long, they really only have 50 half-hours so it would take another 100 episodes for them to reach the mark. | |

Mister Seahorse: Meatwad somehow gets pregnant in "Gee Whiz" after randomly saying that he is pregnant in middle of a non-sequitur and attributes it to Gee Whiz himself. After an ultrasound by Frylock, it turns out the belly bump is filled with enough spider eggs to fill up the entire house when they hatch due to a spider laying its eggs in Meatwad. | |

The Cloudcuckoolander Was Right: In the episode "Super Trivia", Shake makes a passing mention that Villain of the Week Wayne "the Brain" McClane, will never get any sex with his immensely giant head/brain. At the end of the episode, it's revealed that this was actually Wayne's motive from the beginning, using his powerful brain to create the bar where the Aqua Teens have been attempting to beat him in a trivia contest just so he could get women. | |

Character Development | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: Surprisingly for a show with no continuity, the characters subtly change over time. Frylock gradually gets fed up with his roommates' stupidity (particularly Shake's) and becomes more willing to let them screw the selves over. Meatwad wises up to Shake's manipulations and matures somewhat, at least enough to be sexually active. Carl actually comes to like the Aqua Teens to an extent and starts socializing with them, while also becoming much more depraved. Even Shake mellows out a bit in the final season and revival. | |

Took a Level in Kindness: Downplayed with Carl; he's still a jerk but he also starts to openly associate himself with the Aqua Teens beginning around Season 8, a noticeable contrast to previous seasons where he made every attempt to distance himself from them as much as possible. Downplayed once more with Shake in Season 11; again, still a major jerk but some of his more overtly negative traits were lessened (with the sole exception was "Hospice"). "Shake Like Me" plays this far more straighter with Shake, who is noticeably nicer and less cruel after turning black. | |

| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In "Super Hero," Shake attempts to give himself superpowers by exposing himself to radiation. He instead ends up getting radiation poisoning, with his condition worsening as the episode progresses. In "Fry Legs", Frylock slips into full Yandere mode over a computer repairwoman who doesn't return his affections, murdering her boyfriend in the middle of a crowded restaurant. You'd expect the police to be completely incompetent on a show like this, but no; in no time at all, three cops are at the Aqua Teens' house, and when Meatwad keeps stalling them, one gets fed up, maces both him and Shake, and threatens to come back with a search warrant and arrest them for harboring a fugitive. | |

Blatant Lies | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_40bb59d0 | comment |
Blatant Lies: Shake is very fond of telling these, even when it is of no profit for him to do so. Meatwad has told his fair share in his occasional attempts at revenge on Shake. A rare example of Frylock blatantly lying occurred in "Super Birthday Snake," when Frylock repeatedly denies killing Shake, Meatwad, and Carl, despite that they have come back as zombies and are "living" proof that he did kill them. The episode "Fry Legs" has Frylock lying all over the place. The final season is called "Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever", and the theme song mentions how they'll never get cancelled. There have been three episodes advertising themselves as "The Last One": "The Last One", the "Last Last One Forever And Ever", and "The Last One Forever and Ever (For Real This Time) (We Fucking Mean It)". None of them have been the last episode. To be fair, "The Last One" was just meant to be the Season 2 finale and was originally titled "The Last Fucking One For 2003", and the creators actually did intend "Last Last One Forever And Ever" to be the Grand Finale until the series was renewed. The third one, however, was succeeded a week later by the actual final episode, so the creators were clearly trolling with that one. None of the show's intro sequences have ever portrayed the show accurately. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The series ends with Master Shake and Frylock dying horrible deaths (as usual), but Meatwad gets married and has a family of his own. Or at least this is how it seemed at first. Only three days after the "finale" aired, a second finale titled "The Greatest Story Ever Told" was released on Adult Swim's website, which overwrote the previous finale and instead ends with a very Aqua Teen styled joke. | |

Stock Footage | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_4856ac40 | comment |
Stock Footage: Earlier episodes make liberal use of scenes from old Hanna-Barbera cartoons (as per usual for Williams Street productions). For example, the exterior shots for the Dr. Weird segments come from two different Jonny Quest episodes created 30 years apart. Meanwhile, the cityscape BG seen in every episode, the street seen in "Rabbot", the black hole in "Balloonenstein", and the passing helicopter in "The Cubing" were recycled from SWAT Kats. | |

Paper-Thin Disguise | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_48b9731f | comment |
Paper-Thin Disguise: Subverted with Major Shake, the Plutonian's "replicant" replacement for Master Shake. He only looks somewhat like Shake, but in a show this weird, you expect that everyone would just go along with it. Not so much: Frylock and Meatwad aren't fooled for a second. Averted in Super Hero - Meatwad immediately makes "The Drizzle" as Shake, despite "The Drizzle" being in silhouette in the posters - posters that depict a cup-shaped superhero. Another obvious clue - Shake is shilling "The Drizzle" and the gist of it all fits with his typical insanity. | |

Black Comedy Rape | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_4c851777 | comment |
Black Comedy Rape Carl's victimization by the title character of "Handbanana." "All I know is... 'ball', and 'good'... and rape." "Tonight...you." And again in the 100 episode with the Velma Expy. It's later mocked when it turns out the entire episode turned out to be a pitch by Shake's voice actor, Dana Snyder. The Williams Street producers are not amused with the line. | |

Self-Surgery: Played for Laughs. The evil doctor Doctor Weird tells his assistant that he's decided to lose weight. "All sugars, gone. MANUALLY!" Pull back to reveal everything below his knees is now just a skeleton, as he promptly pulls out a chainsaw and begins cutting away at more of himself. Other instances include: removing his head, twice, once on his own and once via his assistant Steve; injecting himself with gallons of BBQ sauce and only realizing it's a bad idea about a second and a half before he explodes; doing something that turned himself into a giant head that spat laser beams; and various other things that can't even be explained as being done "For Science!!" Master Shake tries to give himself a penis extension after Carl's cousin Terry refuses to. He just tapes a wiffle bat to his lower regions. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: For one thing, at the start of the series, they were apparently some kind of private investigation agency, before the series quickly devolved into the three of them just getting on each other's nerves and making messes (Frylock claims as much in "Robositter", claiming "we haven't 'detected' anything in three years"). Much of the characterization, but especially Frylock, is noticeably different. There used to be a Jive Turkey Lemony Narrator voiced by Schoolly D, which was largely dropped after Season 4. For the first two seasons, curse words were censored with the standard bleep. Afterwards, they were replaced with random sound effects (most prominently fart noises). Later seasons brought back the standard bleeps, but the sound effects were still there to a degee. There's also the Dr. Weird intros; they only appeared in the first two seasons, but the intros themselves also demonstrate this trope as for the first few episodes, Dr. Weird's actions actually affected the plot (e.g. "Bus of the Undead" has Mothmonsterman break free of Dr. Weird's castle, through the giant Rabbot-sized hole still left in the wall from the pilot, and is drawn to the Aqua Teens' house by the several powerful floodlights making up Master Shake's "Shake Signal"). Before long, the major defining characteristic of Dr. Weird's scenes became that nothing he did ever had any effect on the plot and was completely forgotten about the second the actual episode started. Speaking of which, there was also the Spacecataz intros during season 3; those intros instead revolved around the Plutonians and Mooninites going at each others' throats (with the Mooninites often getting the last laugh). Like the Dr. Weird intros, they had no affect on the overall plot of the actual episode and was completely forgotten afterwards. note These particular intros were actually part of a Poorly Disguised Pilot for a spin-off featuring the Plutonians and Mooninites. | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_50b05d30 | comment |
"Super Birthday Snake" opens with Shake getting Meatwad a snake instead of the bunny he wanted. One thing leads to another, and the snake eats both Meatwad and Shake, then Frylock accidentally kills them when he blows the snake up in an attempt to free them. After this, whatever morality Frylock possessed goes out the window, and he gets some hookers, throws a loud party, and stabs Carl through the heart when he comes over the next morning to ask about the noise, simply because Carl pissed him off. | |

Spoofy-Doo: The 100th episode features Shake, Frylock, and Meatward facing a monster who represents the 100th episode who want them to give it to him. To escape, they end in a show called "Aqua Unit Patrol Squad" (this was some time before they would use the title as part of the New Season, New Name joke) which resembles Scooby-Doo (and some Hanna-Barbara toons in general) with Meatwad even resembling Scooby and the group suddenly having a female member resembling Velma. | |

Who Even Needs a Brain?: Jingle toy or not, Meatwad is not seriously affected without his. The only side effect is an increased tendency to forget what he's doing and shout "Do what now?!" whenever someone tries to give him instructions. The same also occurs with Steve in the very same episode. The only problems it causes for him is that he's no longer able to read. | |

Adaptation Distillation: The change in personalities from their initial Space Ghost Coast to Coast one shot, starting with Frylock being some sort of weird manboy that fit Meatwad better, and Meatwad being less idiotic (and a lot more depressed). Oh, and the voices. Can't forget the voices. (SG-Frylock had Err's voice, while SG-Shake had Ignignokt's voice and sounded very suave and sophisticated.) Also: ATHF-Frylock traded in his limbs—which looked like crinkle-cut french fries—for a goatee. | |

The Smurfette Principle: The show's cast is 99.9% male. None of the very few female characters are ever named, and the few that don't end up dead by the end of the episode typically kill the entire main cast themselves. It could be argued that this goes even further, into Chromosome Casting territory. | |

Sports Dad: In the episode, "Ezekiel", Shake forces his son Ezekiel to play basketball and tennis in an attempt to make him a sports star, constantly berating him when Ezekiel shows no talent or interest in it, and tries to commit suicide to make him feel guilty. When he finds out Ezekiel is so skilled in chess that he beat the Chess Dragon, Shake shows pride in him and plans on taking him to the Olympic committee. (Shake's not very smart and doesn't know chess isn't an Olympic sport anymore.) That's when Frylock tells him not only is Ezekiel not his son, he's actually older than Shake. | |

Subverted in the case of Meatwad, who was stated to have a huge "dick". That is, Meatwad turning into Dick Nixon. Ol' Tricky Dick. Who looks just like Wayne Gretzky.

Formula-Breaking Episode: The live-action episode. And the second half of "Hypno-Germ," a bad play acted out by germs and beans inside Shake's head, with voice cameos from Bob Odenkirk, Tim & Eric, Fred Armisen, Todd Hanson and Janeane Garofalo. | |

Gargle Blaster | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_67edaf78 | comment |
Gargle Blaster: Sort of. Frylock makes beverages made of mustard, vinegar, and oyster sauce for Meatwad, hoping he'd vomit up a microchip. The first one failing, Frylock makes another, adding his own urine. Unfortunately, Master Shake grabs it, chugs it, and promptly vomits. | |

Gigantic Gulp: In the notorious "Dickesode" episode, Shake gets a soda from Wongburger that's literally the same size as him. He claims he needs that much soda on a daily basis. Shake himself probably counts as one. He is a six foot tall milkshake after all! | |

Jerkass Has a Point: In the episode "Super Sir Loin", Meatwad takes all the food in the house and sends it off to a rapper named Sir Loin, who is actually MC Pee Pants, who's returned from Hell again, including a duck à l'orange that Shake was going to eat. Shake, of course, is not happy about that, and Frylock actually agrees with him. In the episode Robositter, Shake and Frylock get jobs at Slurp-a-Lunch, a restaurant in the mall that serves liquified meat. After accidentally sampling some of the product, Shake is the one who questions his place of employment: | |

Beware the Silly Ones: The Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past From the Future is normally a rather goofy robot that goes off on tangents that make very little to no sense at all as they go on. However, the movie shows him as being perfectly capable of being a threat if he wants to be one. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_6d332aea | comment |
In "Larry Miller Hair System", a salesman tries to sell Carl a toupee and shows him a simulation of what his life would be like if he had hair; The simulation Carl is a slim and handsome Christian, married with kids, and leads a happy, but boring and sexless life. Naturally, the real Carl is not thrilled about any of this, believing his simulation self "sold out", and after the salesman runs off to feed his gambling addiction, he starts giving the simulation Carl (who can hear the real Carl) advice that completely ruins his life; he gets fired from his job, his wife takes the kids and leaves him, and after being ordered by the real Carl to get rid of the only dignity he has left by shaving his hair off, he blows his brains out with a shotgun. | |

The Stoner: "Moonajuana" had the Mooninites come off as this by claiming to have taken many hits of the titular drug.note It's actually carbon monoxide and other noxious fumes which are inhaled inside a tightly closed dome, the side effect being asphyxiation from lack of oxygen. They convince Master Shake, Meatwad, and Carl into using it with predictable results. | |

Artistic License – Military | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_6eb4e408 | comment |
Artistic License – Military: "The Marines" has Meatwad enlist himself and Shake to, well, the Marines. However, judging from their uniforms and the aircraft carrier they're stationed at, Shake and Meatwad appear to have actually joined the Navy instead. Additionally, Meatwad at one point tries to exclaim the Army battle cry "Hooah" (pronouncing it as "Hoo-hah") when the Marines' actually "Oorah." As it later turns out that Meatwad is not even sure if they actually did join the Marines, plus this is Meatwad we're talking about here, this may have been intentional. | |

Christmas Episode | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_6ef9d3fe | comment |
Christmas Episode: "Mail-order Bride," which mainly revolves around Shake and Carl fighting over a Chechnyan mail-order bride as a Christmas present to themselves. "Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future," despite the episode itself taking place during the month of February. note In fact, the episode originally premiered four days after Christmas. "T-Shirt of the Living Dead" could be called one as well, as it involves the team helping Santa deliver presents ( after accidentally summoning him and burning him alive). Though it should be noted that this episode didn't take place during Christmas time either, as it is stated to be "in the middle of *jingle bells*ing July" and only cut to Christmastime at the end of the episode. "A Public Enemy Christmas". For once, it actually takes place on Christmas. It also involves identity theft. And Eel Diarrhea for some reason. | |

When Frylock asks him if he meant Three-Arm Junction, Meatwad asks what it is and then Frylock explains the history of Smiley Junction.

Animation Bump: The intros from Season 8 onwards have higher animated sequences. The battle between Meatwad and Carl in their vehicles in "Last Dance for Napkin Lad" has a higher bump of animation compared to previous episodes. A Slim Jim ad has a lot more detailed animated segments. The first look clip of Plantasm depicts the characters being far more fluidly animated than their base series. This fluid animation is retained in Season 12. | |

The Movie features many of the "villains" making returns, with several having roles as prominent as the Aqua Teens themselves, and some of them in "blink and you'll miss it" cameos. | |

One-Neighbor Neighborhood: Carl seems to be the only neighbor the ATHF have. There are plenty of other houses visible in their Cut-and-Paste Suburb in the occasional aerial view, but if there are other people in the area, they never show up. Might be justified, since the ATHF probably brought down property values simply by being there (and Carl implies in "Love Mummy" that the previous tenants were even weirder). Even when the Aqua Teens' landlord Markula kidnaps them and buries them in the Mohave Desert, the house ends up being rented to even crazier tenants who continue to torment Carl. | |

Straight Man | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_83b464fb | comment |
Straight Man: Frylock. And he's not perfect either, even using his clone machine to duplicate money (to his defense, it was after Shake started doing it, and he would have used at lest some of the money to end world hunger... by starting a chain of family-style restaurants). | |

Rice Burner | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_87802c9a | comment |
Established from the very first episode, if Carl's Rice Burner car, "2 Wycked", shows up in an episode, it's usually safe to assume it's going to be wrecked at some point in the episode, usually soon if not immediately after it's shown, and Carl is about to get very vocal about his precious car being wrecked. | |

Kudzu Plot | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_8b5e8731 | comment |
Kudzu Plot Parodied in the movie. The plot is extremely complicated, involving the revelation of how the Aqua Teens came into being, the fate of Chicken Bittle, what the hell Dr. Weird's deal is, the secret conspiracy of the Insano-Flex, and whether Frylock is a lesbian in a man's body in the body of a box of fries, but by the end, no one cares because of the insanely complicated plot. And by "no one" we mean the characters. A giant burrito claiming to be the Aqua Teens mom shows up for the first time ever out of nowhere at the very end of the movie and Meatwad is the only one even remotely excited about it. | |

Took a Level in Jerkass | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_8cb1a369 | comment |
Took a Level in Jerkass: Frylock, occasionally. Mostly justified - it's usually against Master Shake, who's taken a bigger level of Jerkass than could be matched by anyone else on the show. Yes, even the Mooninites aren't as big of assholes as he is. And of course, aforementioned ultimate Jerkass Master Shake just gets worse as the series goes along. He was an inconsiderate douche who does the dumbest of things with no thought for others in season one alone, but by season two his response to Carl accidentally shooting himself in the foot due to Shake trespassing was to turn up the volume on Carl's TV and whine about his complaining. | |

Didn't Think This Through | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_8d0785d5 | comment |
Didn't Think This Through: In "Total Re-Carl", after Frylock's previous attempts at giving Carl a new body fail, his third attempt is giving Carl a robot suit armed with lasers and missiles. However, by that point, Carl is seriously pissed off to the point where, during the second attempt that involved giving Carl a body literally made of eyeballs, he tries to kill Frylock. Even Shake called Frylock out on this. In "Dicke-sode", Frylock removes Carl's dick so that he wouldn't have to worry about it being removed. Then realizes just how stupid his plan was. In "Working Stiffs", Carls hires, of all people, Shake and Meatwad to assassinate a mob boss. Not only Shake does bail out on the whole thing, but Meatwad is kind enough to tell the mobsters who hired the hit. | |

Art Shift: During "The Broodwich," whenever Shake would eat the eponymous sandwich, he would get sent to another dimension which is animated in a trippy, deranged, even simpler art style. Also during "One Hundred" when the show turns into a Scooby-Doo parody. It's lampshaded and mocked to Hell and back. As well as during The Movie's opening credits and the fight between Dr Weird and Frylock. The majority of "Rocket Horse and Jet Chicken" is the titular story and is animated rather badly and with crayons since Meatwad made the book. | |

The Tape Knew You Would Say That: Shake manages to create a tape of him rambling on randomly (including listing a soup recipe) that predicts to the second when Carl (who is listening to the room the tape player is in via microphone) starts suspecting something isn't right. What's even more impressive is that he somehow manages to do this days/weeks/months in advance, seeing how he is dead before the tape is even started. The tape even knew how he'd be killed, since the tape continues on perfectly from the shots that kill him. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: The Aqua Teens originally being detectives is mentioned in various episodes. In "The Last Fucking One", the brownie monsters end up adopting a highway, and call the villain group "CLICK CLICK CLICK...." This results in a sign with "This highway adopted by CLICK CLICK CLICK..." This sign is later seen in the Boost Mobile parody episode. The Power Puff Mall still has a Rabbot-shaped hole in its wall from the first episode. When Carl is selling the Aqua Teens' house to a couple, he warns them about the attic and brings up the fact that the Aqua Teens have no bathroom. Apparently, the pile of clothes they were using rotted through the floor, and they continued to use it, however they left pizza around it to cover up the smell. The first episode of the show's rename, Allen, featured a small appearance by Randall. And he's still spliced with that pork chop. The new name of the show, and location change to Seattle are nods to the episode "100". In the movie, when the Insanoflex destroys the Aqua Teens' roof, Willie Nelson can be seen crawling out, after being locked in the attic. Willie is also seen in the final episode's last minute or so, walking out of the Aqua Teens' house some years after Meatwad has married and brought the kids over briefly to show them where he grew up. He actually looks a bit sad as he walks out of shot. Also in the movie, Balloonenstein can be seen in the clouds (blink and you'll miss it) when the shot pans up to the Plutonians after Frylock calls the number on the Insaneoflex "website". | |

The final episode (which ends with Shake and the show's entire Rogues Gallery getting gunned down by police, Frylock and Carl gaining immortality and then going to prison for life, and another, 35-year Distant Finale) plays it for laughs a second time when it's revealed the whole episode was being watched by the main trio and Carl on TV as they complain that this is the real finale. | |

Random Events Plot | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_a07afea2 | comment |
Random Events Plot: The show absolutely revels in deliberately making as little sense as possible or only making sense in the context of the given episode. "T-Shirt of The Living Dead" (which begins with Meatwad making wishes on a magic t-shirt and ends with the Hunger Force Subbing for Santa after accidentally burning his entire body and melting his skin off) is just one example! | |

Sugar Bowl | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_a15af1f3 | comment |
In "Storage Zeebles", Carl, upon discovering a Sugar Bowl in the storage unit he purchased, takes all of the land's resources and bulldozes everything else, all out of sheer greed. Even when the natives' king is begging Carl to stop, he makes it abundantly clear that he gives absolutely zero fucks if they all starve and die. Which makes seeing the Night Wolf rip out his scrotum all the sweeter. | |

Overly Long Gag | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_a188ac4b | comment |
Overly Long Gag: Multiple: "Super Birthday Snake": The zombies of Shake, Meatwad, and Carl saying Frylock killed them, and Frylock denying it. Repeat variations of this for about a minute, as they gradually shift from respectively a zombie-like drone and anguished denial to mild annoyance. The Deleted Scenes section of the DVD release reveals that it was originally supposed to be even longer (granted by only 1 or 2 extra lines from Carl). Adult Swim's flash game, Aqua Teen Hunger Force's Worst Game Ever. A side-scroller with only one direction key and long stretches of nothing, interrupted by a harmless obstacle to jump over. The teleport key moves Shake all the way back to the beginning, and Alt-F4... probably does your sanity a favor. | |

My God, What Have I Done?: Frylock's exact words in "Super Birthday Snake" after trying to free Shake & Meatwad after it ate them. He attempts to cut open the snake with his laser vision but ends up just blowing them all to gooey bits. One wonders why he didn't just use his fry-knife, which he uses later to dice up Carl, but maybe one shouldn't try to apply logic to this cartoon... | |

Stupid Crooks | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_a1d48853 | comment |
Stupid Crooks The Mooninites once stole their uncle's welfare check so they can cash it on Earth and go on a shopping spree... except the welfare check was actually a payment bill for home care and it emits radiation when it's overdue, which happened two months previously. Plus, they kept trying to cash it at a convenience store, even after the clerk clarified that such stores don't cash checks. And to truly show how stupid they were, on the way down to Earth, Err kept telling Ignignokt that the check was bill, but Err thought Ignignokt knew something about the bill he didn't know. That same episode begins with Igignokt spray-painting graffiti on a school, which Err quickly points out is just a rock. Their first appearance saw them stealing whole assortments of electronics equipment. They also encouraged Meatwad to swallow an entire rack of DVDs, believing he could then walk out of the store with it; Meatwad couldn't do this and tried to carry it instead, which sees him immediately trip the store's alarms while the Mooninites take the opportunity to escape. Emory and Oglethorpe attempt to defeat the Aqua Teens by replacing Shake with a replicate that fools no one, then videoconference with it while the others are in the room, watching. | |

Eye Scream | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_a2b38d3b | comment |
Eye Scream: The episode "Laser Lenses" has Meatwad rip out Shake's eyeballs so he could have the eponymous laser lenses to himself. And Shake's empty eyeball sockets end up becoming infected and grotesquely swelled up soon afterwards. What everyone other than Master Shake does to his eyeball in "Unremarkable Voyage". Carl eventually has a whole body made of eyeballs. Moving or standing causes him considerable pain. In one episode, Master Shake and Meatwad decide to play indoor baseball with raw chickens (!), and they contract an absolutely horrifying case of conjunctivitis that gets progressively worse as the episode wears on. One of the Dr. Weird openings had Dr. Weird transform Steve's eyeballs into spider creatures. He screams in agony throughout the whole process. | |

Rule of Three: Three roommates. Also in The Movie opening credits (and by extension similar [adult swim] bumpers) are parodied as first a shot of the Williams Street logo appears with ominous sounding music, both fade out. A few seconds later the same music and background fade in with "Presents" written in the middle, and these fade out. A few seconds later the same thing happens with "This Movie" written on it, which gets yanked off after only five seconds. | |

Karma Houdini | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: Frylock in "Total Re-Carl", though granted, as Frylock did try to keep Carl alive. As a matter of fact, Master Shake is the one KILLED in that episode in spite of being completely innocent of the central conflict and doing nothing in particular to deserve it. Master Shake in "Reedickyoulus" manages not only to get away with killing both HIS AND MEATWAD'S cats, but he also killed all their other pets the same way. Granted they do come back as zombies thanks to Carl's radioactive poop and manage to zombify him, though he doesn't see it as a punishment, rather he remains completely indifferent to his situation. The only thing really different about him other than the obvious zombifying is he develops a craving for brains and gay zombie sex. Plus he's virtually immortal, especially since here Removing the Head or Destroying the Brain doesn't work. Frylock ends up giving Shake exactly what he wants to get rid of him, a gay zombie ape party bus. | |

And I Must Scream | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_a8a04f6f | comment |
And I Must Scream: The Broodwich sends you to to a hellish dimension where a guy will attempt to chop you to pieces with a giant axe. Oh, and the guy trying to make you eat it is really irritating. Probably more so than the prospect of getting chopped to pieces. Though some people spend their whole lives training to go to a dimension with H. Jon Benjamin. In "Total Re-Carl", Carl is shredded alive and reduced to a disembodied but still living head. He initially becomes suicidal but then wants to kill Frylock. In "Hoppy Bunny", Carl's newly bought recorder injects his entire body with wires that transform him into a gnome like creature. He is then forced to constantly play music and dance for the entertainment of a group of Furries. He spends the rest of the episode desperately trying to get someone to put him out of his misery. The fate Carl and Frylock receive in "The Greatest Story Ever Told" the show's true Grand Finale. Where they have been sent to prison and are forced to serve a life sentence there, though they can never officially serve one due to both of them becoming immortal. Which means that they can never, ever leave prison. | |

All for Nothing: In "Super Bowl", Meatwad finds a pair of tickets to the Super Bowl in a bag of nachos, and Shake and Carl spend the entire episode both trying to convince Meatwad to take one of them with him. He eventually decides to take neither of them, opting instead to take Boxy Brown (who appears for the first time in this episode). Then it's revealed that not only did Meatwad forget his tickets, but he didn't even go to the Super Bowl and went to a farm instead. Shake is absolutely beside himself with anger, since he became an obese blob with multiple health problems from eating literally hundreds of nachos trying to find more tickets for no reason. | |

This is a reference to when the rights to The Flintstones were nearly sold off to FOX in the early 2010s, with Seth Macfarlane of Family Guy fame planning to head a reboot of the series (said plans were later cancelled about a year after the episode aired). | |

Negative Continuity: This trope allows them to get away with, say, Frylock refusing to move back even after the others beg him to in the episode "The". There's also Shake's frequent deaths and Carl getting repeatedly mutilated/mauled/killed. Occasional callbacks are made just for laughs, and recurring character M.C. Pee Pants' whole gag is that he doesn't benefit from a Snap Back and everything that happens to him sticks. Season 11 takes this further where every single episode (excluding "Brain Fairy".) ends with at least one main character dying. | |

Anti-Hero | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: And even then, that's stretching it; Master Shake is one of the most vile, lazy, obnoxious "heroes" to ever walk the face of the Earth... and he's supposedly team leader. You won't find him leading anything, that's for sure. Meatwad means well, but is too stupid to be of any use. Carl is a gross, misogynistic slacker who verbally abuses everyone and drives an alternate self into suicide after talking him into abandoning his family. Even Frylock gets his asshole on at times. | |

Samurai | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_c091ce5f | comment |
Meatwad. It's suggested that the only shapes Meatwad can take are the two he exhibits in the title sequence of every episode: a hotdog and an igloo. Although in the pilot episode, he was also able to take the form of a "meat bridge," and during his brief time as a circus attraction, he managed to take on the shape of a Samurai Lincoln (which he insisted was supposed to be Wayne Gretzky) after repeatedly shifting back and forth between the hotdog and igloo forms was starting to get old. | |

Subverted with Major Shake, the Plutonian's "replicant" replacement for Master Shake. He only looks somewhat like Shake, but in a show this weird, you expect that everyone would just go along with it. Not so much: Frylock and Meatwad aren't fooled for a second. | |

Nice, Mean, and In-Between | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_c1cef253 | comment |
Nice Mean And In Between: Nice — Meatwad; he does have his moments of being shady now and then, but Meatwad is generally the nicest and most innocent one of the Aqua Teens. Mean — Master Shake; a lazy, selfish jerkass from beginning to end who likes to abuse Meatwad for none other than his own amusement. In-Between — Frylock; typically portrayed as the Only Sane Man of the Aqua Teens, Frylock also can be pretty bitter and apathetic on several occasions. | |

Dogs Are Dumb: Handbanana acts like this, so everyone will think Carl's just being nuts when he starts accusing Handbanana of rape. Barring his pastry mastery and knowledge of CPR, which the Aqua Teens still pitch off, thanks to those traits being written into their dog-making software. They only believe him when they see Handbanana and Spaghetti raping Carl...and then Shake starts jacking off (or whatever sentient cups without genitalia do) to it. | |

Big Damn Movie | |

Big Damn Movie: The plot involves the trio trying to save the world from an ancient evil exercise machine. Not only do they and the rest of the cast get distracted, but the entire plot blurs into a whirligig of Ass Pull plot twists, with only Meatwad still caring in the end. In the DVD version, there is a second movie, the one not for theaters. There it is revealed to be: Meatwad, playing with toys. Which includes the Burrito mom. Also there is a milkshake. Also, Doctor Weird lives in the house, and Frylock is in drag. It is implied ALL Aqua Teen stuff maybe Meatwad playing with his toys, and making it up. Which, makes sense, in a disturbing fashion.. | |

Insane Troll Logic | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_c5f0119c | comment |
Insane Troll Logic When wanting Frylock to grow Shake some "medicinal" marijuana, Frylock says no. Shake then responds with this little gem of logic: "I won't tell on you, we're roomies man! But if you don't grow it... I'm gonna tell on you!" Also, when a cashier at a convenience store refuses to cash a check for Shake, he shouts "Well I'm gonna sneak into your country, and do this job there, AND THEN NOT CASH ANY OF YOUR FREAKIN' CHECKS! How will you like that?! You won't! BECAUSE YOU'LL BE HERE!" Made even funnier by the fact that the cashier was American. From "The Shaving", while trying to provoke Willie Nelson (not that one), Shake hangs this little gem of a lampshade: He then follows it up with a good minute or so of baffling pseudo-homophobic insults in Willie's direction. Willie's response is simple confusion. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Powerpuff Mall that was featured in the first short, "Meat Fuzzy Lumpkins", shows up a few times. Craig McCracken returned the favor by putting ATHF on a TV screen in The Movie. The Fargate from "Universal Remonster." And now it looks like Oglethorpe actually did rip off somebody, or somebody ripped him off. From "Kidney Car": "iAmaPod" is basically a weird remake of Invasion Of The Bodysnatchers. "Juggalo" features an angel that flies using repulsor beams. "The Creditor" is an obvious spoof of Predator. The creature in Shake's cryotube at the end of "Allen, Part 1" is clearly the facehugger from Alien...but with a pompadour...and the voice of Steven Wright... The heavy metal band Meatwad mentions listening to at the end of "Super Sirloin" has a "six-story skeleton named Eddie" as a mascot. Meatwad mentions wanting "lips like a Tomb Raider" in "Diet." | |

Anti-Villain: Most of the "villains" are more obnoxious than evil, especially the Mooninites. Or just really stupid... or both. The only villains that were actually threatening in any way, shape or form only managed to be considered so either due to dumb luck or by being uncharacteristically brutal in their methods... and even then, that didn't save them from being stupid/obnoxious. | |

Character Catchphrase | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_d308cbb0 | comment |
Character Catchphrase "Gentlemen... BEHOLD!" for Dr. Weird. "X is forbidden" was originally supposed to be Shake's catchphrase, but it never really caught on. Same with "Dracula called and he's comin' tonight!!" (or any variation on that), however that lasted longer than the "X is forbidden" one, dying out somewhere in the first/second season. "Tonight!" is a favorite of Carl. "Tonight...you." for Hand Banana. THOUSANDS of years ago... for the Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past (always accompanied by smoke, which is referred to as "smooth and menthol-y" by Err). | |

Anal Probing: Frylock indirectly offered an interesting theory as to why aliens may do this. When dealing with a Puppeteer Parasite alien that was controlling Shake, Frylock said it probably recycles its waste (it didn't). Therefore, one reason for anal probing may be that aliens lack anuses and are curious as to their purpose. | |

Mondegreen Gag: The sample of Shake's voice in the end credits ("Dancing is forbidden," spoken in the first episode) has been variously captioned and subtitled - even on the DVDs - as "dancing is forbidden," "dancing is stupid," "dance finger puppets," or "Danzig is morbidity." invoked That last one is Hilarious in Hindsight, as the real Glenn Danzig appears in one episode to buy Carl's haunted and elf blood-soaked house. | |

Token Black Friend Boxy Brown... sort of. There are lines drawn between him being the only 'black' character. Frylock, maybe. Hilariously, Shake turns black after an accident involving a radioactive construction worker, and, as a consequence, turns far less assholish. Frylock changes him back because even he found it too weird. | |

Limited Animation: To the point that on the rare occasion when Carl is given a proper walking animation, it looks out of place. Most of the time, Shake bobs back and forth, Frylock floats, Meatwad rolls, and for Carl usually they just zoom into the top part of his body as it moves across the screen. | |

65-Episode Cartoon: Parodied on their 100th episode, as it meant they would be make tons of money from syndication if they could avoid a monster that eats characters that hit this milestone. Since each episode is only twelve minutes, though, it takes two episodes to count as a single episode toward the syndication cutoff, meaning it would take at least another hundred episodes to reach the cutoff. | |

In "Total Re-Carl", after Frylock's previous attempts at giving Carl a new body fail, his third attempt is giving Carl a robot suit armed with lasers and missiles. However, by that point, Carl is seriously pissed off to the point where, during the second attempt that involved giving Carl a body literally made of eyeballs, he tries to kill Frylock. Even Shake called Frylock out on this. | |

Made of Explodium Pretty much anything, especially when Master Shake throws it to the ground.

Art Evolution: While the animation continued to be minimal throughout its entire run, later seasons started giving the characters more dyanamic (for this show at least) movements and angles to move and appear in. The animation itself also became more smooth, and the character models and backgrounds also became more polished and detailed. | |

Flanderization | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: Shake’s laziness, ego, and delusional view of the world were upped as the series went on. The first season had him as the only Aqua Teen to try to get things done in spite of his own laziness and, while he did have a big ego, much of it seemed to stem from him viewing being a detective as a serious job even if he often jumped to conclusions, while later seasons have him as a lazy bum who lounges around the house and refuses to do even the most minor of tasks, believes in things that are utterly nonsensical even by the standards of the series, and can’t go a second without bragging about non-existent achievements. | |

Biting-the-Hand Humor | |

Biting-the-Hand Humor: Boost Mobile once had Master Shake dressed in ghetto bling for [adult swim] eyecatches on Comcast On-Demand... and then there was an episode dedicated to mocking Boost Mobile, killing some irritating sentient cellphones from said company, and Master Shake getting killed by the overdemanding cellphones. Interestingly, the actual company's service is never mocked (which is probably why they could get away with it). "Interfection" is practically one long Take That! directed at Turner's (and therefore Williams Street's) then-sister company AOL (when the episode was first released, the parent company was called AOL Time Warner), including references to "Instant Pestering", billing plans that can't be cancelled, and a riff on AOL's slogan at the time ("It's no wonder I'M NUMBER ONE!")

Snap Back | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_ec8290b6 | comment |
Snap Back: Many episodes end with Carl and/or at least one of the Aqua Teens (especially Shake) being killed or mutilated. Averted when the Aqua Teens are stolen by a giant spider in the Sahara. Carl tries to sell the house several times, with disastrous results, but played straight: the house's new inhabitants disappear by the next episode, for Carl to get harassed again. Played for laughs in the actual final episode, aired after the Series Fauxnale that ended in Shake's death from being devoured by clams, Frylock's death after his jewel runs out of power, and Meatwad moving out of the house, getting married, having kids, and returning to visit the house decades later in a Distant Finale. The episode after starts with Shake and Meatwad watching Shake's death by clams from the last episode on TV. The final episode (which ends with Shake and the show's entire Rogues Gallery getting gunned down by police, Frylock and Carl gaining immortality and then going to prison for life, and another, 35-year Distant Finale) plays it for laughs a second time when it's revealed the whole episode was being watched by the main trio and Carl on TV as they complain that this is the real finale. | |

Too Good for This Sinful Earth: Ol' Drippy. Drippy, Drippy, Drippy... He's nothing but polite and helpful to the Aqua Teens and Carl. He's also probably the nicest character in the entire series' run, and that's saying something. When Shake gets sick from being out in the rain, Drippy allows him to eat part of his body to feel better, since it's mostly penicillin, but is left in a weakened state. Later, when Shake goes to get a pamphlet out of the street, Drippy sees a truck coming and pushes Shake out of the way. Of course, Shake is so distracted by the pamphlet that he doesn't realize what happened, and doesn't even care that Drippy is dead. | |

| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_f7ea98a2 | comment |
Handy Mouth: In "Rubberman", Lance The Duck Made From Used Condoms yearns for arms, so he and Meatwad chop off Carl's. During the credits, Carl is shown still alive without his arms trying to work his phone. He dials a number with his tongue. | |

Running Gag | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag Anything thrown will explode (usually if Master Shake does it), and no one says anything about it. A very subtle acknowledgment comes in the form of Meatwad backing away in shock from cloned money as it explodes after floating to the ground after being lightly tossed. It was acknowledged again in "The Clowning" after Shake tried to throw a toilet brush on Carl's front yard but lands on their own yard. The Aqua Teen back away in shock when it exploded after a few seconds. They somewhat try to address this by saying the use of the cloner causes the objects in their home to be so unstable. Lord knows why they even bothered. It started happening after The Drizzle, where Shake rolls around in radioactive waste. Any variations where other characters throw things and they explode (if that even happens) are later in the series and a play on Master Shake's 'ability.' At one point, Shake knocks over the reclining chair in the living room, which then explodes as it falls onto their game console, which then explodes aswell, taking the TV it was plugged into with it. The Aqua Teens frequently ask Carl to swim in his pool, to which he always rejects in a curt and irritated manner. And they often go in his pool or use it in their shenanigans anyway, much to his chagrin. Established from the very first episode, if Carl's Rice Burner car, "2 Wycked", shows up in an episode, it's usually safe to assume it's going to be wrecked at some point in the episode, usually soon if not immediately after it's shown, and Carl is about to get very vocal about his precious car being wrecked. | |

Don't Explain the Joke: Oglethorpe prank calls the Mooninites in the "Spacecataz" shorts. In a rare instance of success, he pulls off the joke itself flawlessly and immediately botches the explanation while still talking to them. | |

The Dog Bites Back: Neither Meatwad, Frylock, or Carl have a problem with letting Shake get hurt or killed, considering just how much of a jerk he is to them (Meatwad especially). | |

| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_fb7bc4a8 | comment |
Never Trust a Title: Infamous — "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" is basically a bunch of cool-sounding words that in no way, shape or form relate to the actual main characters (save maybe "Hunger," being living snack items). | |

Comically Missing the Point | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_fbd285b7 | comment |
Comically Missing the Point: In "Juggalo", Carl calls out Shake's lie about being offered the role of Thor by saying that Shake isn't Greek. Dr. Weird finds an adhesive bandage in his banana pudding and asks for it to be removed, but when Steve says he can probably get it for free, Weird assumes he means the bandage, and not the pudding. | |

Beware the Nice Ones | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones Meatwad is abused by Shake a great deal, but will occasionally rebel - usually with disturbing results, as seen in "Super Model" and the endings of "Total Re-Carl" and "Carl". Hand Banana. He's loyal to the Aqua Teens, knows CPR, and can bake. Then he rapes Carl. Willie Nelson, the very polite monster living in the attic comes down asking if he has mail. The Aqua Teens believe they can get along pretty well until he tears Carl's arms off without provocation and proceeds to drink his blood. At least he was thoughtful enough to say 'oh sorry guys, do you want some juice?' and offering some to the others. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Aqua Teen Hunger Force / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: In the cold open to "Revenge of the Trees", Steve impersonates Dr. Weird, shouting "Fill me with BBQ sauce because I'm dumb as hell!" Three episodes later, in the cold open to "Broodwich", Dr. Weird actually does inflate himself with BBQ sauce. Subverted in "Wi-Tri". A minute or so after the Gilligan Cut mentioned below: In the episode where Frylock builds a supercomputer, Shake activates the first prototype prematurely and it bounces away to parts unknown. The second prototype travels back in time and is found by a caveman whose first thought on seeing it is "All right! Free egg." At the very end of the episode, the Mooninites find the first computer, and Ignignokt points out the "free egg." A very literal brick joke in the "Breakie B" Aquadonk Side Piece shows that the Impact Silhouette that the Rabbot created in the first episode has been patched up with brick and mortar, and is still visible at the mall, two decades later. | |
