'''''[http://www.youtube.com/user/TheAnnotatXperiment The Annotated Series]''''' is a [[YouTube]] series that lampoons TV shows and [[Public Service Announcement|public service announcements]], such as ''[[Ctrl+Alt+Del]]: The Animated Series'', ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros 3]]'' and ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' via [[YouTube]]'s annotation feature.
On October 3, 2009, CurtDogg uploaded an episode of ''[[Ctrl+Alt+Del]]: The Animated Series'' and included a link to the video's annotation editor, a feature [[YouTube]] used to have, in the style of the channel [http://www.youtube.com/user/UnoriginalContent UnoriginalContent] which had been going for a few months by this time. It caught on and ''The Annotated Series'' was born. Under the name [http://www.youtube.com/user/beeupyou beeupyou] he continued to upload the rest of the series then moved onto other video game-related cartoons. However, [[YouTube]] eventually discontinued the feature, forcing the move to the shared channel, [http://www.youtube.com/user/TheAnnotatXperiment TheAnnotatXperiment].
In mid-2014 The AnnotatXperiment received two strikes, prompting another move, this time to the now-terminated TheAnnotationStation. [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOpX_DQk8d4Md6YpBxm8TkQ Annotation Plus] was started as a training ground for potential annotators, but no longer is used due to the Annotators getting bored with it and something that comes up in the next sentence. Another auxiliary channel is/was [https://www.youtube.com/user/HammerNationTime HammerNationTime], used to host videos that would definitely earn the main channel a strike or two. An offsite annotation editor started being created in early 2017 in response to YouTube ending access to the site's own. However, in September of the same year, TheAnnotationStation was taken down, with three strikes to the ''[[Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky]]'' riff. In October of 2017, videos from TAS and later TAX that managed to be recorded started to be uploaded on [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp_JnQg6SPItgtaqZEncP-w Annotation Archive.] Finally, in June of 2018, the channel [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV2aCjJAG7KMzt44-xGMH2Q Annoverse] was established, allowing the annotators to post new material once again, but not without one more scare at the end of the year from Youtube axing annotations entirely and CBS taking down the uploads of ''[[The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang]]'' that they were using.<ref>[https://archive.today/20190321235434/https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WebVideo/TheAnnotatedSeries TV Tropes page] for ''The Annotated Series''</ref>
''The Annotated Series'' is presented in a regular episodic format, usually in the original order of the series in question, with a break in the middle of each season. Each season break, and the end of each season or series, will be marked by an intermission in which they'll [[Something Completely Different|annotate something completely unrelated]], usually of similar poor quality to the regular series.
