Feeling bored? Here's a challenge. Find a trope page on this site that '''doesn't''' reference at least one of these series.
 
Being [[Trope Overdosed]] indicates how popular a series is among [[The Contributors]]. The longer a series has been around has an effect. It's not hard to use a lot of [[trope]]s when you're a [[Long Runner]].
 
Not to be confused with [[Overdosed Tropes]], which are the same but inverted.

This doesn't mean that these series are actually better, just that more tropers watch them and add examples. Or possibly that [[Entry Pimp|one really, really crazy troper]] watches it and adds examples.
