17 | * ActorAllusion: There are plenty throughout the series, especially noticable in Season 4 now that [[spoiler:Creator/RonHoward himself is an actual, canonical character in the universe.]] |
18 | * CelebrityParadox: Bizarrely, despite that the narrator makes constant references to Howard’s career and more-or-less subtly portrays Howard in a positive light throughout Season 4, he still refers to the Ron Howard appearing in the actual show in third person. [[LampshadedTrope Lampshaded]] in the re-edit of Season 4: |

22 | * LemonyNarrator: As the series goes on, he gets closer to being this, especially when commenting on the ShowWithinAShow's own narrator. |
23 | %%* NoFourthWall |
24 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Less and less as the series goes on, and he gets more and more moments that betray his initial characterisation as the impartial bystander. |
25 | -->'''Narrator''': ... It was weird. |
26 | * SelfDeprecation: Ron Howard takes a pretty good beating in season 4, though this paradoxically makes him one of the more reasonable and well-adjusted characters in the series, [[AuthorAppeal probably on purpose]]. |
