{{quote| Let's find out! Here at [[All The Tropes]], [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|troping]] is our number one concern.}}
In a nutshell, two (later three) guys decide to put various things [[Kill It
The show ended after '''[[Archive Panic|ten]]''' seasons, which you can watch [http://www.youtube.com/show/isitagoodideatomicrowavethis here.]
Line 13:
* [[Catchphrase Interruptus]]: A [[Running Gag]] of the earlier seasons had Riley interrupting Jory during his catchphrase.
* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: An outtake from "Gasoline" shows Jory doing this after he cracks up on a take.
* [[A Day in
** Jonathan Paula (normally the camera guy) has hosted Episodes [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDG_ncja7gA #120], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8fVGW4XiGo #150], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6LqfuvkrO4 #182], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6moRys9aZw #228], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWSrY-CMOqY #247], and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RadHvwmxHwY #283.]
*** He played the sidekick role in Episodes [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3f2lhViqx8 #157], #195, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uwyp0TkW4Sw #254], and #290.
Line 31:
** Parodied with "try it at your parent's house," since the show is filmed in Jon's parents' house.
* [[Eye Scream]]: The eyes of the Furbies they microwaved ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XOzpjuPGlE Episode #46]) were ''burnt out''. Sleep well, children. No, seriously, now that the Furbies are dead...
* [[Fan Service]]: Riley dressed as a [[The Man Your Man Could Smell Like
* [[For Science!]]: Naturally.
* [[Grand Finale]]: [http://youtu.be/QGBu7sOPHK8 Episode #300.]
Line 47:
* [[Mad Libs Catchphrase]]: "Here at Jory Caron Laboratories, [something about safety]."
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]]: In Season 8, they called their microwave oven ({{spoiler|Sarah}}) different names, [[Berserk Button|much to the chagrin of cameraman Jon]]. {{spoiler|Luckily, Jory managed to get it right by her last experiment.}}
* [[Near-Death Experience]] / [[Nightmare Fuel]]: Episodes #167 (the first "Airbag") and #256 ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZukwJxHV03k the second "Lava Lamp"]) [[In
* [[Oh Crap]]: Their shock that one of their microwaves outright '''exploded''' as a result of {{spoiler|sticking an airbag inside it (Episode #167). Most of it got blown clean across the garage, but the ''door'' got the most distance...and made it to eBay}}. They also let this loose when they saw that the tinfoil shield actually did its job.
{{quote| '''Riley''': The tinfoil shield, it actually worked!!}}
Line 60:
{{quote| '''Jory''': I don't have to go to the bathroom anymore!}}
* [[Pyromaniac]]: Well, ''Micro-Maniacs'', really.
** Played straighter when after {{spoiler|[[Justin Bieber
* [[Self-Deprecation]]:
{{quote| '''Jon''': Please [[Don't Try This At Home]].<br />
Line 69:
{{quote| '''Jory:''' Bottle rocket was not a good idea. Firecrackers are a ''damn good idea''!}}
* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]: As a general rule, never try heating bottled containers of alcohol or flammable chemicals in your microwave oven at home.
* [[Taking You
* [[Wham! Line]]: From [http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=3MA4mwnlhh4#t=327s Episode #104]: "For any of you who thought 'oh, it takes many experiments to kill a microwave', you're wrong..." Vanessa's death after two experiments was by far the shortest tenure to that point, shocking even Jory; before her, every microwave lasted at least fifteen episodes.
* [[Why Won't You Die?]]: Saint Margaret II managed to resurrect '''three times''' after microwaving the Wii, electric fan, and gold and copper...after which she was retired. If you were to put an airbag in her, she'd be thinking "Why are you trying to kill me? '''[[Berserk Button|IT WON'T WORK!!!]]'''"
