'''Game Grumps''' is a webshow/[http://www.youtube.com/ YouTube] channel originally created and hosted by [[Jon Jafari]] (JonTron) and [[Arin Hanson]] (Egoraptor), where they play games while doing live commentary, with the first episode airing on July 18, 2012. On June 25, 2013, after about a year's (or 342 day's) worth of episodes, Jon left the show, and was replaced by [[Danny|Daniel Avidan]], also known as Danny Sexbang, the lead singer of the musical comedy duo [http://www.NinjaSexParty.com Ninja Sex Party]. Around the same time, a Game Grumps spin-off show entitled [[Steam Train]] was introduced. The show features [[Danny]] and animator [[Ross|Ross O'Donovani]], who also joined the channel shortly after [[Jon Jafari|Jon]]'s departure. The premise of [[Steam Train]] is similar to that of the original Game Grumps formula, with the only difference being that the games played are exclusively on the PC platform, often through the digital game distribution software [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_(software) Steam], hence the show's title. The regular upload schedule for the channel in 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. EST for [[Game Grumps (series)|Game Grumps]] and 12 p.m. EST for [[Steam Train]]. Other special episodes, like [[Table Flip]] or announcement videos are often uploaded sometime in this period as well. The channel consists of many series: [[Game Grumps]], [[Game Grumps VS]], [[Game Grumps Animated]], [[Guest Grumps]], [[Steam Train]], [[Steam Rolled]], and [[Table Flip]]; as well as occasional holiday-themed versions of their shows: [[Ghoul Grumps]] and [[Scream Train]] (Halloween), [[Jingle Grumps]] and [[Steam Sleigh]] (Christmas), [[Date Grumps]] and [[Single Train]] (Valentine's Day), [[Stout Train]] (St. Patrick's Day), and [[Cat Grumps (series)|Cat Grumps]] and [[Meow Train]] (Aprils Fools day).

== The show contains examples of ==
* [[Actually Pretty Funny]]- The reaction to Danny taking over as Not So Grump after the first few days hate died down.
* [[Crutch Character|Crutch Characte]][[Gundam|Oh hey Big Zam!]]
* [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]]- Barry, who almost always fufils the Grumps' ludicrous editing requests with gusto.
* [[Homosexual Subtext]]- Intentionally played for laughs between the two Grumps ''constantly'', though moreso during Jon's tenure.
** And an unintentional case with The De Club, oh lord what a case.
* [[Memetic Molester]]- [[Dennis The Menace|Mr. Wilson]]. Oh dear lord Mr. Wilson.
* [[Messianic Archetype]]- Danny turns [[Randy Savage|Macho Man Randy Savage]] into this in his speculation that [[It Makes Sense In Context|he fought off the Four Horsement of the Apocalypse to save mankind from the Rapture]].
* [[Orphaned Series]]- Quite a few of them, the most infamous being Sonic 06, though they decreased in number after Danny took over for Jon.
* [[The Stoner]]- Danny has said he was one in his younger years, which lead to such bizarre incidents as wrestling an alligator while high and getting a truck stuck in a tunnel in the middle of winter and nearly freezing trying to direct people around it.
