History Trivia / ReviewingAReviewer

* TalkingToHimself: In episode 8, Asalieri is accompanied by a guest star named The Large Exhibit, which is obviously Asalieri with his voice distorted slightly deeper. In episode 35, the Odyssey is SuddenlyVoiced, which is also Asalieri's voice distorted to sound higher-pitched.

** [[Webvideo/ReactionAndReview Hellsing290]] asked him to review his own show, but Asa passed on the offer. When they had a falling out, Asa did a video bearing the "RAR" name, but it was more of a rant against Emer's recent actions rather than his show itself.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes:

** The second part of his "RAR #2" episode was removed due to a complaint by "Cry Wolf Productions".

* OldShame: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj3_MzgBPO4 Episode 27, Mirror Match,]] is essentially a video meant to laugh at his older and shittier videos.

** Asa announced that he and Silent Rob would review the ''WebVideo/TheIrateGamer'' and ''WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd'' crossover episode just a few days after episode video came out. However, since Asa has deleted the trailer and all the old episodes of RAR, it is safe to asume that the video in question has been cancelled. This was confirmed by Asa in the comments.

* AttentionDeficitCreatorDisorder: Not only does Asalieri work on his ''Reviewing A Reviewer'' (which comes on an erratic schedule), he also does ''Kickstarter Nightmares'', spin-off ''One-View Wonders'', ''Masterpaint Theatre'' and other projects that kinda died on arrival.
* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Many of his videos have been flagged, blocked or deleted by Website/YouTube. Because of this, some of his missing videos had to be reuploaded on different servers or passed privately. Among many:
** "Steel Beth Reviews ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''": A parody of WebVideo/IronLiz, blocked because it uses copyrighted footage of National Geographic. It is available again for viewing now.
** All of the videos relating to WebVideo/TheRPGFanatic (except the "running" parody). They used to be still around on a Chinese video website.
** "The Hater's Corner", where he bashes the comments by the "irategamersucks" blog. Allegedly flagged by it, he made a reaction video called "I have a lovely bunch of coconuts".

** His "My Beefy Pony" GagDub of the "Putting Your Hoof Down" episode from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' ended up being blocked due to copyrighted content.
** The second part of his "RAR #2" episode was removed due to a complaint by "Cry Wolf Productions", that is not involved with Irate Gamer anyway!
** His first ''Masterpaint Theatre'' video, "Penguin Revolution and why Asa doesn't play competitive Pokémon", has been blocked because it used footage from the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' anime. Even on mirrors, it doesn't work. You'll need to look for an edited version to be able to watch it.
** All of the videos made with his former friend Kyle, including "RAR #28: A Kyle of His Own", where he mocks Mike Matei. Kyle had a falling out with Asa and cut all contacts with him (which led to a very infamous moment where Asa agressively tried to contact him again). Thus, Asa deleted all the videos they put together (though the aforementioned RAR episode was reuploaded onto another channel).

* MissingEpisode: After his first channel was deleted, a lot of videos he made seem to have been gone forever. Many of the older ones are uploaded on the "Asalieri Archive" channel, and many others are mirrored by fans. Even on the main new channel "[=Asalieri2=]", several videos have suddenly gone missing, and it is unknown if Asa himself deleted them or if they were flagged. In 2020, Asa deleted most of his video content.

* ScheduleSlip: He certainly doesn't have a consistent work ethic. He chalks it up to having a busy family life... and his own admitted laziness.

* SequelGap: Made and uploaded episode 43 two years and two months after episode 42.
* TalkingToHimself: In episode 8, Asalieri is accompanied by a guest star named The Large Exhibit, which is obviously Asalieri with his voice distorted slightly deeper. In episode 35, the Odyssey is SuddenlyVoiced, which is also Asalieri's voice distorted to sound higher-pitched.

* WeUsedToBeFriends: In late 2015, Asa had a falling out with long time friend Emer Prevost over disagreement about a ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' racing game. Although it was probably not directly the game itself but a RantInducingSlight based on other comments in that thread, one can't help that Emer overreacted when he refused to even listen to what Asa said afterwards and unfriended and blocked him from all social media. The two as of January 2016 were no longer on speaking terms, and Asa often took nasty shots against Emer in his videos. This all came to an end when Emer passed away in August 2017: Asa mourned him greatly, paid homage to him, regretted their feud and wished they could have buried the hatchet sooner.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He intended to make a parody of ''WebVideo/JoueurDuGrenier'', calling it "Joueur de Merde" (Shit Gamer). The project was aborted, but he still showed the logo in a reviewer contest as a character he has cancelled. Some of the development material resurfaced in a video by The Retro Mike, a French creator he was making this parody with.
** Asa announced that he and Silent Rob would review the ''WebVideo/TheIrateGamer'' and ''WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd'' crossover episode just a few days after episode video came out. However, since Asa has deleted the trailer and all the old episodes of RAR, it is safe to asume that the video in question has been cancelled. This was confirmed by Asa in the comments.

** This reached a high point in 2020, where he deleted almost ''all' of his reviewing/commentary videos, leaving only one retitled RAR.
