Delocated: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

 

''Delocated'' is a live action [[Adult Swim]] show about a man in the [[Witness Protection]] Program who's starring in his own [[Reality Show]]. He's targeted by a [[Acceptable Targets|Russian]] stand-up comedian/hit man. Jon wears a mask all the time and uses a voice harmonizer, and he expects his family to do the same. The entire show and premise are chock-full of absurd [[Fridge Logic]], likely entirely intentional.

* [[The Faceless]]: Everyone in the pilot, but later just Jon. Soon transcended in that Jon's ''ski mask itself'' has become the face of his fame.

* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: In the episode "David's Girlfriend", David runs away with a girl from the Mirminsky family. Mighty Joe Jon, The Black Blonde comes up with the idea to hire Hollywood writers to think of places that they might have gone. Jon eventually angrily dismisses the writers.

* [[Jerkass]]:Jon, who cares nothing for his family or girlfriends saftey and only for his popularity.

** Jon shows [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|he's not completely heartless on occasion.]] Mighty Joe Jon, The Black Blond is a worse jerkass in any case, as shown in the season 2 finale. He also does honestly love his son.

** Season 3 pretty much turns to [[Up to Eleven]].

* [[Mushroom Samba]]

* [["No Respect" Guy]]: Jon. Then again he is a [[Jerkass]].

* [[Only Sane Man]]: Kim has the patience of a saint. {{spoiler|Her patience runs out when at the end of season 2 when Jon emphatically tells her that he'll never marry.}}

* [[Running Gag]]: An in-universe example, Yvgeny's standup act consists entirely of jokes about vodka (but his audience never seems to care). This is [[Lampshaded]] by both Sergei and Jon.

** At one point, he decides he needs some "fresh material" for his act. Later in the episode, we see him with what appears to be a [[Completely Missing the Point|vodka dummy]].

* [[Sex God]]: The Glaze, Jon's exotic self-help guru from Season 3.

* [[Sleepwalking]]: Sleep''cooking'', to be precise. Jon becomes a master TV chef while non-awake in the episode "Midnight Munchingtons."
