* [[Harry Partridge|Happy Harry]]
Line 214:
=== Happy Harry ===
 
A flash animator who rose to internet fame long before joining That Guy With the Glasses with his [[Animated Adaptation|Saturday Morning]] [[Watchmen]] short. He made his TGWTG debut with his American [[Akira]] short (though the site has since gone under renovation and dated the Watchmen short earlier than the Akira short.) All of his contributions to the site so far have been [[Rerun|rerunsrerun]]s of his [[YouTube]]/[[Newgrounds]] work; he apparently has plans for a new series, but [[Development Hell|it's been a long time coming]].
 
* [[Animated Adaptation]]: Parodied with the Saturday Morning Watchmen short.
Line 221:
=== The Last Angry Geek ===
 
A [[Real Life]] friend of Doug Walker. Actually the first comic book based contributor to the site, but the second contributor to make comic book based videos. Yes, you read that right. The Last Angry Geek joined the site as an article writer in May of 2008, a full six months before Linkara's first contribution. However, he didn't start his comic book review show, "[[Punny Name|Comic Book Issues]]", until September of 2009, making him both the first and second comic book reviewer. He had already started a series called "True Internet Story", a mock expose of various internet personalities, beforehand, but he seems to have [[Stillborn Serial|abandoned it]].
 
* [[Butt Monkey]]: To Linkara in their "[[Spider-Man|One Moment in Time]]" crossover review.
* [[Casanova Wannabe]]: In his Christmas 2010 video.
* [[Non-Indicative Name]]: The rest of Channel Awesome is more than enough proof that he's far from the ''last'' angry geek, and in fact he's never particularly angry--ifangry—if anything, he's one of the least caustic critics on the site. Pretty much the only accurate part of his name is Geek.
* [[Stillborn Serial]]: True Internet Story
 
Line 262:
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]: Occasionally guilty of this.
* [[Mighty Glacier]]: Shows in the anniversary brawl, when 5 punches from Angry Joe don't even make him flinch.
* [[Ninja]]: '''[httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20090814064747/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/blog/5208 SUMO NINJA]'''! He lurks in the shadows... very ''large'' shadows.
* [[Psycho for Hire]]: His SUMO NINJA persona, available for [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|assassinations, assisted suicides, and birthday parties.]]
* [[Running Gag]]: Sean crying in the shower to Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" after a particularly epic fail. NEVER gets old.
** Also the "audience" booing when he makes a tasteless joke. Happens often enough that he was shocked when it didn't and made an even more tasteless one to get the boos.
** And his hatred of ''Rise of the Argonauts''--which—which even went along with the "My Heart Will Go On" crying in the shower.
 
== Print/Radio Contributors ==
Line 299:
A literature podcast hosted by Coldguy, JewWario, and Rabbi. Segments include "On the Top" (Justin and Rabbi grill Coldguy about a book he's read), "The Newsprint" (lit-related news/editorial), "Brutal Book Beatdown" (Rabbi does an in-depth book review) and "JewWario's Jukebox" (Justin does a dramatic reading of a book excerpt).
 
* [[Captain Space, Defender of Earth!]]: Alex Blade of the Challengers of the Ultraverse--theUltraverse—the character who introduces the readings in the "Jukebox" segment.
 
=== ''Transmission Awesome'' ===
Line 334:
=== That Aussie Guy ===
 
Hosted "Bored Shitless", a production group formerly associated with That Guy With The Glasses. Also made video game reviews, wrote articles, and produced the ''Transmission Awesome'' podcast for the site until he was dismissed. In June 2009, for reasons that have remained private, he was let go from the site and all his videos removed. He continues to post reviews and other videos on [http://www.youtube.com/user/RizRaveReviews his YouTube account], as well as run [https://web.archive.org/web/20130923015749/http://aussie-gamer.com/ his own video game website].
 
* [[Australian Accent]]: Duh.
Line 356:
** During his [[V Log]] on the [[Kickassia]] DVD he wakes up after a nap and says he has to wake himself up so as to be a safe driver. He gets out of the car, climbs up onto the roof of a nearby van, does a couple push-ups, takes off his glasses, and then does 20+ pushups with no rest. He then puts his glasses back on, leaps off of the van, and gets back into the car.
** Apparently to him getting people to read the articles section of the site involves [[Transformers|Optimus Prime]] obliterating [[Charlie and the Chocolate Factory|Oompa Loompas]]. And monkeys washing cats.
* [[Funny Character, Boring Actor]]: During the commentary for ''[[The Garbage Pail Kids Movie]]'', he sits through two thirds of the review and barely says anything. ... then again, see above.
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: Calls out Nash for overusing stream of consciousness.
* [[I Am Not Spock|I Am Not Ma-Ti]]
Line 413:
=== Mike Ellis ===
 
Chief organizational officer--andofficer—and chief executive sexy bitch--ofbitch—of Channel Awesome. Believed to be in a romantic relationship with Beary the Bear. He left the company in August 2010.
 
* [[Butt Monkey]]: Gets this treatment in the Nostalgia Critic's Top 11 F* ck Ups video, where he gives a humble apology for posting a wrong video. The Critic does not think that this apology is good enough, and commences with a savage beating.
Line 457:
* [[Crazy Homeless People]]
* [[Expy|Expies]]
* [[Keet|Keets]]s
 
=== [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever|Giant]] [[Mechanical Lifeforms|Robotic]] [[Donkey Kong]] [[Kung Fu Jesus|Jesus]] Riding A [[Lost/Characters|Puff Of Smoke]] ===
Line 470:
Yes the same Jareth from [[Labyrinth]]. He showed up in Jew Wario's review of the NES game based on... well Labyrinth. {{spoiler|Later returns to advise Jew Wario when his other allies are gone.}}
 
* [[Chick Magnet]]: [[Pushing Up Roses]], [[Marz Gurl]], [[Jesu OtakuJesuOtaku]], [[Obscurus Lupa]] and Psychoneko all swoon at his singing and all come running when they figure out he's showing up.
* [[Chekhov's Gunman]]: {{spoiler|Gives Jew Wario the inspiration for the plan that ends up defeating The Evil}}
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: See [[Chick Magnet]] above.
Line 488:
=== Andrew Dickman ===
 
An artist who started out doing fanart of several TGWTG contributors and has gone on to do title cards for a large number of them, including the Nostalgia Chick, Phelous, Obscurus Lupa, Sad Panda, Suede, Pushing Up Roses, and Spoony. He also has his own off-TGWTG review series, "Animated Anarchy". He created a cartoon pilot for Nickelodeon's Random Cartoons, called ''Ivan the Unbearable''. His website is [https://web.archive.org/web/20171113094215/http://www.starfieldcreations.com/ here] and his [[Deviant ART]] gallery is [http://andrewdickman.deviantart.com/ here].
 
* [[Big Fun]]
Line 513:
=== Punky ===
 
Originally a member of the TGWTG forums, Punky became the creator and maintainer of the Channel Awesome [[Twitter]] feed. She also posts movie reviews under the Channel Awesome blog and helps manage [https://web.archive.org/web/20080727091216/http://www.wiisteria.com/index.php Wiisteria], a Spanish-language gaming site.
 
* [[Ascended Fanboy|Ascended Fangirl]]
Line 523:
=== The Other Guy ===
 
Robert Walker--DougWalker—Doug's older brother. Occasionally submits his own text reviews, but for the most part works as Doug's co-writer and camera man. Makes frequent cameos, most notably as Santa Christ (and pretty much anyone who ever has to hit Doug with something from off-screen). Recently abducted by '''M''' to serve as the producer for a new channel, ''Barfiesta'' (which has yet to materialize). He is sometimes a velociraptor; [[Big LippedNon AlligatorSequitur MomentScene|no, we don't know why.]]
 
* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: He usually keeps his calm on the forums and if a NC episode didn't turn out quite right, he'll be the first to admit it. But when [[Fan Dumb]] goes too far with insulting Doug (like saying he [[Last Action Hero|doesn't understand satire]] or that the ''[[Junior]]'' review was lazy), he will ''rage''.
Line 532:
* [[Nice Hat]]: A Joker purple fedora. In the third donation drive, it's red.
* [[One of Us]]: Becoming rapidly apparent that he and Doug are, though Rob seems to be more so with him referencing [[TV Tropes]] and Doug mentioning that the [[Dune]] on the shelf is Rob's in a commentary. He also watches ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]'', and various [[Britcom|Brit Coms]].
* [[Papa Wolf]]: Rivals [[Atop the Fourth Wall|Linkara]] by coming to other contributers' defense. Not only with Doug's work but also notably [[Bad Movie Beatdown|Film Brain's]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20130524091004/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/teamt/fbv/bmbe/8526-equilibrium review of Equilbrium] (page 11 of comments), [[The Nostalgia Chick|Lindsay's]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20100709212818/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thedudette/nostalgia-chick/25098-dune-yo review of Dune] (page 1 of comments), and multiple times in the forums with Kickassia.
