''The: Joke''[[note]]Short for "Texto's Hilarious Entertainment: Just Objects Killing Eachother"[[/note]] is a joke {{Object Show|s}} created by Gery (Best known for ''WebAnimation/BurgerBrawl''). It is inspired by [=GreenyGuy=]'s joke show ''Object Fool'' and the first episode premiered on 19th April 2023.

Texto sends twelve objects on a whirlwind adventure around the world to compete in his joke show whether they like it or not.

See [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVLaNFvQdAygUcoMXxZpGDjk63bs97hYP The: Episodes]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8ZGdAvCbl8 The: Intro]].

!!Contains the following tropes:
* ADogNamedDog: Like all ObjectShows, the cast are all {{Animate Inanimate Object}}s and named accordingly.
* AlliterativeName: Two of the contestants have the names of '''B'''lack '''B'''elt and '''C'''osmic '''C'''lone.
* AnimateInanimateObject: The cast consists of anthropomorphic objects which also has a fair share of [[JokeCharacter joke objects]] as well such as Cosmic Clone, Sonic and Texto.
* AnthropomorphicFood: Garlic is the only living food object in the show.
* ArmlessBiped: Five contestants[[note]]Cardboard Jr, Paddle, Sharpener, Smash Crate and Spike Helmet[[/note]] qualify for the trope while Texto is a floating face with no limbs.
* AudienceParticipation: Texto encourages the viewers to vote for who they want to eliminate from the losing contestants at the end of every episode.
* DwindlingParty: As how this type of [[ObjectShows show]] normally goes, one of the twelve contestants gets eliminated every episode until there's only one left remaining.
* EjectTheLoser: Texto eliminates their contestants by selecting and then deleting them out of existence. When asked if they are dead, Texto reassures that they just sent them to a place somewhere probably in another dimension.
* FunWithAcronyms: The: Joke stands for "'''T'''exto's '''H'''ilarious '''E'''ntertainment: '''J'''ust '''O'''bjects '''K'''illing '''E'''achother" which spells out the [[TheyKilledKennyAgain true intentions]] of what Texto wants to see in their joke show.
* MythologyGag: A portion of the cast[[note]]Brick, Cardboard Jr, [=MEE6=], Paddle, Sharpener and Spike Helmet[[/note]] had [[{{Transplant}} initially come from]] ''Inanimate Roulette'', Gery's old show currently in DevelopmentHell, as seen in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9rW3AI9rJs intro]].
* TheyKilledKennyAgain: There's a reason why Joke in the title stands for "Just Objects Killing Eachother" what with the contestants dying in increasingly comical ways only to be brought back to life the next episode no worse for wear.
