Line 39:
* [[Black Comedy Rape]]: Riley on Zaboo, though it's more of a case of dubious consent. He's clearly not into her kinks, but he allows her to do it anyway. [[Tropes Are Not Bad|It actually works]].
* [[Bland-Name Product]]: Parodied. The MMO they all play is called "The Game". The signs at the convention even call it The Game.
* [[Blonde, Brunette, Redhead]]: Clara, Tink and Codex.
* [[Bodyguard Babes]]: {{spoiler|It is revealed at the end of season 5 that Zaboo's twin [[Halo|Master Chief]] thugs were actually women.}}
* [[Brain Bleach]]: Tink, when Bladezz jokingly suggests he's going to release a sex tape.
Line 72:
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Bladezz and Zaboo in "Do You Wanna Date My Avatar". Also, Wade, period.
* [[Even Beggars Won't Choose It]]: A homeless person tries Vork's "found object stew" and rejects it in disgust.
* [[Expy]]: The in-show sci-fi series ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Time Rings]]'', with the main character known only as "the Professor", featuring former co-star Madeline as "Charity", herself a loose [[Expy]] of ''(and dead ringer for)'' [[The Sarah Jane Adventures (TV)|Sarah Jane Smith]].
* [[Extreme Omnivore]]: Vork: Found Object Stew. That is all.
** Also, the "breakfast" he finds in season 5, made up of the discards of other people at the hotel
Line 78:
* [[Face Heel Turn]]: Tink, in season three.
* [[Failed Attempt At Drama]]: Zaboo's exit in 3.9 "Wit's End".
* [[Fake -Out Make -Out]]: Tink asks a drunk Codex to pretend to kiss her to obscure her face from {{spoiler|her sisters}} at the Con.
{{quote| '''Tink:''' I said 'pretend to kiss me' you perv!}}
* [[Five-Bad Band]]: In season three, the Knights of Good meet a [[The Rival|rival]] guild, the Axis of Anarchy, composed of what seems to be a Five Bad ''[[Five -Token Band|Token]]'' Band.
** [[Big Bad]]: Fawkes
** [[The Dragon]]: Venom
Line 103:
** Also [[Discussed Trope|discussed]] in the Dark Horse Comic. Thirteen percent'd!
* [[Geeky Turn On]]: Only a true geek could that excited about a ''T1 line''.
* [[Girl -On -Girl Is Hot]]: Bladezz reaction to Codex and Tink's [[Fake -Out Make -Out]].
** Also Zaboo's reaction to {{spoiler|Riley and Venom}} in the season 3 finale. "Subscribed!"
* [[Good Cop, Bad Cop]]: Season 3 episode 9, {{spoiler|Codex and Zaboo's interrogation of Valkyrie takes on this aspect when Zaboo starts venting some of his repressed anger and Codex admits that he's starting to scare her.}}
* [[Greek Chorus]]: Sir Loopalot
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: Tink.
Line 134:
* [[Liz Lemon Job]]: Codex in Season 3, rather unsuccessfully.
* [[Loan Shark]]: Vork becomes one in Season 4.
* [[Make -Out Kids]]: Zaboo and Riley at the beginning of Season 3.
* [[Man Hug]]: Averted in the season three finale {{spoiler|when Bladezz and Bruiser make up.}}
{{quote| '''Bruiser:''' "In your fucking dreams."}}
Line 156:
* [[Next Thing They Knew]]: The season 3 finale.
* [[Noodle Incident]]: Vork doesn't think of himself as a bad man... well, there was that night he spent at a Hitler Youth Camp by accident...
* [[No Periods, Period]]: Averted; early in Season 2 Zaboo chalks up Codex's annoyance with him to the fact that she must be ovulating. Then he whips out a miniature calender to prove it. Which, of course, only increases Codex's annoyance.
{{quote| '''Codex:''' You ''laminated'' my cycle?<br />
'''Zaboo(innocently):''' Kinko'ed. }}
Line 193:
* [[Ship Tease]]: "Game On" is a ''big'' one for the Codex/Zaboo ship.
** Followed by {{spoiler|[[Ship Sinking]]}} in season 5
* [[Shout -Out]]: In season three, episode four:
{{quote| '''Codex''': Without the two [[Doctor Horribles Sing Along Blog|hammers (holds up her fists)]] of the guild, Tink and Vork there... (Looking at her hands) What are these?}}
** Also:
Line 229:
* [[The Alleged Car]]: Vork's campervan.
* [[The Don]]: In season 5 Zaboo's seat saving scheme gives him a lot of power at the convention and by episode 7 he is seen stroking a toy cat while {{spoiler|[[Neil Gaiman]]}} is asking him for a favour. Later he is seen having his goons beat up {{spoiler|Kevin Sorbo}} in order to get front row seats at his panel.
* [[There Are No Therapists]]: Codex's therapist dumps her. And later, blocks her calls. Considering just how relentlessly Codex resists any attempt to make her face the world and deal with her problems, it's hard to blame her therapist for [[Know When to Fold 'Em|Knowing When To Fold'Em]]. Therapists need to protect their ''own'' sanity too, after all.
* [[Three Minutes of Writhing]]: "Do You Wanna Date My Avatar", though it's pretty obviously a parody of this type of thing. That doesn't stop it from being really freaking ''hot''. [[Felicia Day]] does a cute, awkward little smile in the very last second of the video that suggests she wasn't quite comfortable with being [[Ms. Fanservice]].
* [[Twofer Token Minority]]: Several.
