The ''Legend Of Zelda'' series is one of the more popular sources for material for [[Abridged Series]] on [[YouTube]]. For example, [http://www.youtube.com/user/adamwestslapdog adamwestslapdog] has already finished an abridged series based on ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina Of Time]]'', and is currently working on one for ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. [http://www.youtube.com/user/xanauzumaki xanauzumaki] has already completed abridged series for two Zelda games, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina Of Time]]'', in that order, with a ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' abridged series currently in progress. And [http://www.youtube.com/user/tauberpa tauberpa] has abridged ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|Wind Waker]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'' ''and'' ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'', and is just now working on abridging ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. Just like other abridged series, these point out weird plot-points of the original work and add some pop-culture references as well.
