Line 1: {{~~trope~~work}} {{quote\| ''Reviewing all the latest cartoons, because the 90s are over, internet. Get over it.''}} ''[http://blip.tv/dark-side-of-the-toon Dark Side of the Toon]''{{Dead link}} is an [[Web Original\|Internet]] review show, similar to the shows on [[That Guy With ~~the~~The Glasses]]. But, [[Yes Except No\|instead of reviewing nostalgic movies]] to see just how bad they were, the host, Tooch, has taken it upon himself to review [[Western Animation\|animated tv shows]] that have come out since 2010, in an attempt to introduce us to a side of animation that we may not be familiar with. So far, the shows reviewed have been: * [[Kick Buttowski]] * [[Hero: 108]] * [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic ~~(Animation)~~\|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]] * [[G.I. Joe: Renegades]] * [[Transformers Prime]] * [[Dan Vs.]] * [[~~Adventure Time (Animation)\|~~Adventure Time]] * [[Regular Show]] {{tropelist}} ~~=== This show provides discusses and provides examples of: ===~~ * [[Big No]] {{quote\| '''Tooch:''' Sorry little guy, your love for Rarity is...nothing more than a mere running gag.~~<br />~~ '''Spike:''' NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! }} * [[Character Development]]: Rarity starts the series as "fairly useless," but eventually "develops as a character and makes for some great comedy." Line 22: * [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: The show's title. Here "dark" refers to unknown, rather than bad. * [[Digital Piracy Is Evil]] {{quote\| '''Tooch:''' I will never support piracy on this show, if only because the stuff I'm reviewing is brand new and needs support. If no one supports it, it might not get a second season. Except...[[Metaphorgotten\|the shows that are bad, probably don't deserve a second season]]..."}} * [[Executive Meddling]]: The only reason Princess Celestia is a "princess", rather than a queen. * [[Expy]]: "Kick's obnoxious older brother [[~~Fosters~~Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends\|Terrence]] - I mean Brad." * [[Flat What]]: Tooch's initial reaction to ''Friendship Is Magic''. * [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: ''[[Kick Buttowski]]'' has "violence of near [[~~Tom and Jerry (Animation)\|~~Tom and Jerry]] levels." * [[Hey, ~~Its~~It's That Voice!]]: "I know that voice! It's [[Xiaolin Showdown ~~(Animation)~~\|Danny Cooksey]]!!" * [[Literal Metaphor]]: [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic ~~(Animation)~~\|The magical]] [[Power of Friendship]] can make for some "powerful pony juju." * [[Loser Protagonist]]: "Huh, Butch Hartman must really love to torture his characters." * [[Merchandise -Driven]] * [[Non Sequitur]]: Tooch introduces each episode with some random comment about some [[The Nineties\|1990s]] animated show. * [[Nostalgia Filter]]: Tooch believes that a lot of 1990s kids have their nostalgia goggles on way too tight, refusing to acknowledge anything animated after 2005 as any good. * [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic ~~(Animation)~~\|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' has gotten his most enthusiastic recommendation. * [[~~Straight~~Invisible ~~Gay~~to Gaydar]]: Tooch mentions having a boyfriend in the ''[[Transformers Prime]]'' episode. In fact, the long hiatus was caused by Tooch's flying to visit him in Wales for two months. * [[Stroke the Beard]] {{quote\| '''Tooch:''' "I don't have enough beard hair for this."}} {{reflist}} ~~[[Category:Sandbox (New Media)]]~~ [[Category:The New Tens]] [[Category:Dark Side Of The Toon]] [[Category:~~Trope~~New Media]]
