''[http://www.youtube.com/user/parks2?feature=mhum Sonic for Hire]'' is a parody series made by Lowbrow Studios. The series stars [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] as washed up and in need to find various jobs to pay debts such as his rent. Almost all of the jobs he is involved in end in failure and has ended in a few cliffhangers. Some of recurring characters he encounters include Dr. Robotnik, [[Earthworm Jim (
Seasons 1 and 2 of Sonic For Hire were mainly about Sonic trying to find various jobs. During the middle of Season 2, however, {{spoiler|Tails bails Sonic out of jail but by using Mario's money, forcing Sonic to work for him. By the end of the season, he kills Mario and becomes head of the Mafia. He spends Season 3 trying to find ways of properly running it until the end, when Tails double-crosses Sonic and blows up his entire fortune}}. Season 4 sees Sonic's return to job-hunting, but now {{spoiler|Tails}} is messing with his efforts...

* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Eggman, Earthworm Jim, Kirby and Gilius Thunderhead {{spoiler|arrive right when Mario's goons are about to kill Sonic}}. Soniqua comes later and Tails, although hoping for Sonic to die, {{spoiler|knocks out one of Mario's goons}}.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: Season 3's Ending seems to be a bit like this ... Sonic {{spoiler|loses his mafia after Tails blows up his money and Sonic is now broke as ever}}, and even though he says that his life is down the shitter, he still tries finding more jobs. Some background music even plays in too.
* [[Brain In
* [[Brick Joke]]:
** "AVOCADO!!!"
Line 104:
* [[Continuity Nod]]: After {{spoiler|Mario gets back alive}}, he calls forth not only some villains, but some of the people that hated Sonic, specifically, Blanka, Pit and Dig Dug.
** Also in the episode, Ice Hockey, the monsters from Dig Dug end up in jail chasing after Alex Kidd. They also appear in "Tapper" and "It's On".
** If you watch [[Mega Man Dies
** The entire episode of "It's On" includes references from multiple episodes from Seasons 1, 2, and 3. Sonic and {{spoiler|Tails}} chase and fight each other through different places that Sonic has been involved with. Even some of the whereabouts of the other characters are continuity nods to previous episodes.
** If you pay attention in "Tecmo Bowl", it shows that "Sonic on Ice" has a revival, done by Crash Bandicoot. In "It's On", {{spoiler|Kirby ate the whole entire cast}}.
* [[The Cameo]]: Sonic and Thunderhead appear in [[Mega Man Dies
* [[The Couch]]: And how.
* [[Couch Gag]]: At the end of almost every single episode, there are some outtakes from the recordings of the episodes, such as saying a line (Usually different from the episode). There are a few episodes though that add something to the end and a few that don't even do the line:
Line 116:
** [[Super Mario Brothers|Peach]]: "Pretty Woman" played instead, along with showing a picture of "Super Italian Labor Plumbers".
** [[Star Wars|The War]]: Different music is played alongside showing the couch gag at the end.
** It's On: [[Mega Man Dies
* [[Crossover]]: [[Mega Man Dies
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BehpFa1Ypwg&feature=g-all-u This] is a crossover where Sonic actually gets to meet Mega Man himself. Becomes sort of a parody of bad crossovers, as the whole episode is them just standing around talking awkwardly.
* [[Date Rape]]: Implied in Temco Bowl. Sonic {{spoiler|spiked a cocktail with roofies that were intended for cheerleaders. Earthworm Jim mistakenly drank it.}}
Line 127:
** [[Big Bad]]: Mario of course, {{spoiler|who got Killed by Sonic}}.
** [[The Dragon]]: Bowser, {{spoiler|who got his face shot by Earthworm Jim.}}
** [[Evil Genius]]: Dr. Wily, {{spoiler|who was thought to be the group of people killed, but apparently just suffered a head injury and due to continuity with [[Mega Man Dies
** [[The Brute]]: Mecha Hitler, {{spoiler|who got killed by [[Complete Monster|Kirby]] of all people}}.
** [[The Dark Chick]]: Well since there were no females in the group, Dracula might as well be the closest one. {{spoiler|He got killed by Gilius Thunderhead}}.
Line 156:
** Or if you're watching Season 3, the fact that {{spoiler|Sonic is a mob boss}}, although {{spoiler|he returns to his regular format in Season 4, although Tails is now one of his enemies now}}.
* [[Large Ham]]: Knuckles.
* [[Legion of Doom]]: {{spoiler|Mario is pretty serious about killing Sonic after he knocks him out}}. He even calls forth villains such as Bowser, [[Mega Man (
* [[Made a Slave]]: Tails {{spoiler|wanted to do this to Sonic after he took over his mafia}}.
* [[On Ice]]: {{spoiler|The conclusion of the Casino Zone 3 Part Special involves this}}.
Line 173:
* [[Royal Brat]]: Alongside the [[Butt Monkey|treatment]] that he received from Sonic, {{spoiler|Tails in Season 4}} basically becomes this after getting rich. Heck, he even sets a bunch of money on fire for no reason at all.
* [[Shoddy Knockoff Product]]: Princess Potato.
* [[Spell My Name
* [[Stalker
* [[Stealth Pun]] / [[Title Drop]]: In "Contra", {{spoiler|Tails takes over Sonic's position after he got put in the hospital from "Duck Hunt"}}. He says that Sonic will still be around, but he'll be getting assigned jobs, so it would be more like "Sonic ... for hire".
* [[Stockholm Syndrome]]: Princess Peach.
* [[Surrounded
** This is basically Sonic with Gilius Thunderhead in {{spoiler|Season 4}}.
* [[Squick]]: Sonic's response upon realizing that he {{spoiler|had sex with Mother Brain}}.
Line 191:
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Soniqua says "Avacado" a lot.
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]]: In-Universe with Soniqua (Although most videos show that she's female, "Pokemon" confirms that Soniqua is a girl) and Birdo (Especially after {{spoiler|Sonic banged him/her}}).
* [[What Happened to
* [[Who's Laughing Now?]]: {{spoiler|Tails}} becomes this in Season 4 ... even more of a jerkass than Robotnik was in Season 1. After being in Sonic's shadow and being constantly ignored or ridiculed by him, {{spoiler|Tails}}, usually in a convertible, screws up Sonic's already miserable life.
* [[Word of God]]: According to [[Low Brow]] Studios, Dr. Wily survived in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f59o-5DsUbg "The Battle: Part 2"], but he had "one hell of a head injury".
