* ''WebVideo/TheHappyVideoGameNerd'': There has been the occasional cut-away, especially with earlier reviews, but there is only one full-fledged instance of this trope: the ''Nightshade'' review (itself a blatant homage to ''[[WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd Bugs Bunny's Birthday Blowout]]'').

While once the most popular subgenre of internet reviews, this became a DiscreditedTrope by around the late 2010s/early 2020s. Many viewers started to see the sketches as getting in the way of the supposed main focus on reviewing and thus drifted away from the style, with the decline roughly coinciding with the rise of the more analytic video essay format in the mid-to-late 2010s. The phasing out of the sketch show also happened around the time the CausticCritic persona heavily associated with it became discredited as well, and a number of long-time creators have adjusted their content to match these changes. It has gotten to the point where even TropeMaker[=/=]TropeCodifier ''WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd'' has largely abandoned it in his modern videos. The only major internet shows who use it anymore either do so because of GrandfatherClause or, when it comes to newer creators, only do it in a fraction of their videos. In both cases, there is also now a conscious effort to intentionally try to separate the review and sketch content as their own entities.
