4->''"Hello there, and welcome to 'The Mark Remark'! My name's Martin, and like any good balding, overweight wresting fan, who never leaves his couch, I've decided that the best way to pay my respects to the men and women who risk their bodies every week in the squared circle is by picking apart their careers, one by one, on the internet!"''

8A webseries hosted by Martin Piers Billany, aka Creator/LittleKuriboh, where he quips about the Wrestling/{{WWE}} events of the week in the guise of a review show.
9
10The format is just him standing in front of still pictures of the recent shows, with the occasional audio clip, while Martin snarks and jokes about the events for about a half an hour.

15----
16!!What's that? This show actually has tropes? And we're supposed to list them? You're fucking lying!
17* AccidentalMisnaming: Many people in the comments' section have referred to Martin as 'Mark' (likely misunderstanding the '[[TheCon Mark]]' in the title as a name). He helped his audience out by overlaying his name in fullscreen letters on the Royal Rumble '17 video.
18* ActorAllusion: Among the many references he makes, a good number of them are of ''Dragon Ball Z'' and they often involve Freeza. [[WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged Hmm...]]
19* ActuallyPrettyFunny: When Roman Reigns quips that the boos he's getting are from "ghosts in the crowd," Martin lets out a brief chuckle, admitting it was a pretty good joke.
20* AdaptationalWimp: Every single joke about Tom Phillips is done InTheStyleOf discussing him as though he's a small, needy, wimpy little child, with other staff who run the social media segments being part of his family or from his school.
21* AlternateUniverse: Apparently Creator/WaltDisney is from one where he created ''Literature/HarryPotter'', and had goth princesses wrestling in tutus. Martin likes the thought of that universe.
22* AprilFoolsDay: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OB5-Y405eiU The Mark Remark - John Cena Edition]]
23* AuthorAppeal: He absolutely adores Wrestling/{{PAIGE}}~. But after her first suspension, she became a BrokenPedestal; so Martin decides to go for Wrestling/{{Naomi|Wrestler}} instead. He still pays tribute to Paige going into early retirement after a CareerEndingInjury during the Wrestlemania 34 recap.
24-->'''Martin:''' Yes, sadly Paige has been forced to retire due to injury. And it's [[SincerityMode a legitimate tragedy]] and obviously I've always had a strong connection with Paige on this show, so...I only think it right if we have a moment of genuine silence for Paige's wrestling career.\
25''({{Beat}})''\
26'''Paige:''' [[InterruptingMeme Paige here~]]\
27'''Martin:''' '''''[[JumpScare Jesus-]]'''''
28* BaitAndSwitch: One of his running gags is to describe a person, mention who that can also fit, and then say who he's really talking about.
29** "He's the son of god, he performs unlikely miracles, and his initials are [[UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} JC]]. That's right, I'm talking about Wrestling/JohnCena!"
30** "I personally don't see that much of a link between Disneyworld and the WWE. After all, one of them is just a rowdy carnival filled with outlandish cartoon characters created by an eccentric mastermind... and the other one is Disneyworld"
31** Talking about when Wrestling/SethRollins "revealed some very revealing images of his enormous, hard, throbbing... car".
32** The stars of ''Total Divas'' are being interviewed, with a closeup of their chests, and also the Bella twins who are attached to them.
33** It looks like Vegeta is bashing wrestlers for being homoerotic, but he then laments how he misses the Ginyu Force.
34* BerserkButton:
35** For a while, JBL's lack of knowing Spanish. He claimed that Wrestling/SinCara was Spanish for "You're eliminated", but Martin was very distressed during the next episode when they said it meant something else ("I trusted you, you ''bastard''!"). The next episode whenever JBL couldn't decide what it meant, Martin broke a pencil. Ultimately, he just stops trying to care.
36---> "Hey, JBL. How do you say 'go fuck yourself' in Spanish? 'Sin Cara'? Thought so."
37** Champions coming out first, to the point of having two separate breakdowns during Payback 2016.
38** WWE's insistence that Wrestling/SashaBanks and Wrestling/{{Charlotte}} are "making history". It's gotten so bad that, in two different episodes, Martin decided he was [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness done caring and did the rest of the Raw segments with little to no enthusiasm]].
39*** Martin's "not caring" attitude came out during the Royal Rumble 2017 recap once Wrestling/RomanReigns entered at #30, despite the fact that he had a title shot earlier in the night, walks down to the ring like his previous match didn't happen, and ended up eliminating Wrestling/TheUndertaker to set up for their feud at Wrestlemania 33, which leads to the ClusterFBomb moment described below.
40* BetterTheDevilYouKnow: After Daniel Bryan gets eliminated from the Royal Rumble, pretty much guaranteeing that Roman Reigns would win, Martin then goes into denial hoping that John Cena wins instead.
41* BookEnds: The main[[note]]Martin has said that his review of Wrestlemania 34 is the last regular episode, though he may still post more episodes.[[/note]] series begins and ends with Martin saying, "I fucking love the Wrestling/JohnCena Show."
42* TheCavalry: Lampoons the commentators' frequent misuse of this, with Michael Cole usually calling the wrestlers running in "the Calvary" instead of cavalry. Martin does note that one of these days he'll eat his own words when the hill Jesus was crucified on does come down running to the ring.
43* TheCameo:
44** The Pharaoh from ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'' appears in the "RAW 3/16/15 through Smackdown 3/26/15" video. Unfortunately, Martin thought he was Michael Cole and beat him to a pulp by accident.
45** Scott Steiner (as played by [=Takahata101=]) appears in the opening of the second "Wrestlemania XXXI" video to sing The Star-Spangled Banner. Steiner's blithering insanity is second only to Wrestling/TheIronSheik, so he ends the song on a drunken, curse laden ramble.
46** During Wrestlemania XXXI Creator/RondaRousey wears a Vegeta FunTShirt, so we hear his voice from ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged''.
47** Vince [=McMahon=] sometimes appears in Martin's videos, usually off-screen (played by [=Takahata101=] again).
48** The ColdOpen of the WWE RAW 10/12/2015 recap episode has Martin talking to Caitlyn Elizabeth (AKA. Boobs [=McBalrog=]) over the phone.
49** When Wrestling/DanielBryan announced his (first) retirement during his coverage of WWE RAW 4/27/15 through Smackdown 5/14/15, Martin didn't want to make fun of it directly, as it was a genuinely depressing moment. Instead, he has his spouse Creator/MarinMiller reenact Bryan's retirement speech...which had Marin using a Daniel Bryan action figure to [[InelegantBlubbering do his "Yes" chant while crying]].
50--->'''Marin:''' ''(as Daniel Bryan, dropping a "YES" chant sign)'' Yes! Yes... ''(Marin drops the WWE World Championship belt from the Daniel Bryan figure to the ground while crying)''\
51'''Martin:''' Thank you honey. Very respectful.
52** Lani and Taka return as themselves in the Wrestlemania 32 recap, apparently ready to incite a riot due to waiting outside for hours with Lani even starting a "let us in" chant.
53** Lani again, this time via a text complaining about Martin saying he looks like Wrestling/KevinOwens.
54* CanonDiscontinuity: Martin spoofs the WWE acting as though Kane has never been in ECW and won the title there.
55* ChirpingCrickets: During the ''Fastlane 2015'' review, the cuts to the Memphis crowd has this sound over a picture of the audience looking bored.
56* ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve: After the Brock Lesnar vs. Undertaker match in Hell In A Cell 2015, after Jerry Lawler encourages the audience to help will the Undertaker to his feet, Martin tells the audience to clap their hands for Undertaker to pick himself up from the ring. He finds himself being unable to do so after he describes the Undertaker as an "undead funeral director who likes Music/LimpBizkit music."
57* ClusterFBomb: After Wrestling/RomanReigns eliminated Wrestling/TheUndertaker from the 2017 Wrestling/RoyalRumble, Martin repeatedly said "Fuck off" until Reigns was eliminated.
58-->'''Martin''': Oh, he fucked off. It worked!
59* ComicalOverreacting: This is most done when spoofing the way a WWE storyline or comment is supposed to make the audience feel.
60* ColdOpen: Will start each episode with one joke or comment before the opening credits.
61* DamnedByFaintPraise: {{Wrestling/Sting}} said nothing at all when he "answered" the "challenge" given by Wrestling/TripleH, and Martin still thinks Sting has better mic skills than Wrestling/RomanReigns.
62* DeadpanSnarker: Despite the energy he provides to most of the episodes, Martin does have the occasional deadpan moment.
63* DesignatedHero[=/=]DesignatedVillain: Discussed on both ''The Mark Remark'' and ''Mark My Words'', where sometimes the Face characters are committing actions in their storyline that can hardly be qualified as heroic, with the Heels retaliating only because the Faces are goading them with said actions or were declared to be one in the storyline. %%InUniverse
64* DidISayThatOutLoud: Martin admitting he found it hot to see Vince [=McMahon=] wrapped in chains. He really hoped it was going to get cut from the episode.
65* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: Although it was in the form of a joke, Martin mocked the announcers for claiming that Roman can silence his critics by winning big, when the problem is already Roman winning big despite fans feeling he doesn't deserve it.
66* DespairEventHorizon: Seems to cross it after recounting Wrestlemania 33 and the Undertaker's final match. He then goes on to [[TheLongList list all the other more worthy picks to retire 'Taker (with Kane being mentioned numerous times)]].
67-->'''Martin''': ...but not JBL. Because fuck JBL.
68* DudeNotFunny: Martin does this to himself InUniverse. [=JBL=] calls Wrestling/LukeHarper "a zombie Wrestling/EddieGuerrero", and Martin is shocked at the tacky way the late wrestler's name was invoked. Then he tries to make a joke about a zombie Eddie Guerrero, but can't bring himself to finish it.
69* DullSurprise: Martin often describes Wrestling/RomanReigns as having "mild smugness." One time Reigns was upset and Martin declared him as "kinda miffed."
70* EldritchAbomination: Hell In A Cell 2015 has Martin describing John Cena as an elder being known as John Ce-Nyarlathotep, who will destroy all of humanity except those loyal to the Cenation.
71* ElNinoIsSpanishForTheNino: Lampoons JBL's misuse of this, especially in regards to "Sin Cara means 'You're Eliminated'"
72-->'''Martin''': First, we all know that "Sin Cara" is Spanish for "[[EpicFail Oops, I fucked up, let me try that again]]."
73* EverythingsCuterWithKittens:
74** On the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrvZPEPeegY&t=10m09s On the 5/5/15 episode]]:
75--->'''Martin''': ''(talking about Ziggler vs. Rollins for the title on RAW)'' A match, much like the ''Star Wars'' prequels, is robbed of all of its tension, as ''(a cat jumps on him from behind)'' there's a cat on my back. ''({{Beat}})'' Go away.
76** In the outtakes from his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_moVLntlFg&t=35m50s [=WrestleMania=] XXXI Part 2 video]], Martin is talking to someone off-camera, and a kitten can be heard meowing in response to each line.
77* EveryoneHasStandards: Martin will actually break character to criticize the crowds if they happen to chant something extremely distasteful, such as the audience mocking Roman Reigns for almost getting a concusion.
78* ExactWords: Fans asked him to stop having to take a pee break instead of actually talking about the women's matches. So Martin makes sure the next time not to eat or drink anything for days before recording, which just makes him pass out.
79** The review of the King of the Ring tournament on the WWE network had Martin stunned because it was a professional wrestling product put out by the WWE that focused on professional wrestling. When it delivered exactly what you'd expect from a professional wrestling event, he doesn't know how to react.
80* ExplainExplainOhCrap: In the 2/2/15-2/5/15 episode, he can't believe that they'd have Roman Reigns vs. Big Show after it happened the week before on Smackdown before realizing that's exactly the match that's coming up.
81* FormulaBreakingEpisode: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kb0iseAqkwA&list=PL6uc4ysWFvKrNd_kvcBuDX7K8TioAQhWU&index=56 twelfth Episode of Desert Island Decks]], where he opens a random ''TabletopGame/YuGiOh'' card pack while under under his "Mark Remark" persona. He still makes Wrestling jokes and references, though notes those who came to watch the episode might not understand them unless they kept up with wrestling or were a fan.
82* FreezeFrameBonus: Because he can't use actual footage without getting flagged, Martin instead puts up stills of the wrestlers as they talk. Somehow, he always manages to freeze at the exact moment when they make the stupidest faces possible.
83* JumpScare: Parodied with Wrestling/ErickRowan talking a long time to do his promos, with extremely long pauses, causing Martin to startle every time Erick finally moves on to the next line. This gag moves to Sting interrupting Martin with a "WOO!"
84* HeroicBSOD: During the Wrestlemania XXXI pre-show, he makes a joke about [[TemptingFate the Big Show actually winning the Battle Royal]], until he realizes that actually did happen. It then accompanies a dramatic zoom on his face as [[Music/SimonAndGarfunkel a somber piece of music]] plays in the background.
85* HesBack: After a hiatus for medical reasons, Martin started the return episode with a dramatic fanfare.
86* HypocriticalHumor: Martin complains about Booker not paying attention to the Divas matches, when Martin had a running gag of skipping them.
87** He says you'd have to be an utter twat to try to ape the comedic style of ''Series/TheDailyShow''.
88** He mocked WWE Raw for recapping an event with still pictures, which his show does all the time.
89** Jokes about bringing back old jokes that stopped being funny during the Wrestlemania 34 recap, before immediately following up that statement with running gags of his own (ie. Psybook and Glass of Milk).
90* IAmNotShazam: InUniverse: In the Royal Rumble 2017 review, he jokes about how, even though he introduces himself as Martin, has people calling him Mark on social media. So, to end the confusion, he puts "Martin" in big letters (as it covers the whole screen) to remind them of his real name.
91* IronicEcho: The "You're fucking lying!" RunningGag is usually used after Martin is informed of something bad happening when he predicts the complete opposite. At the end of Battleground 2016, it's used in disbelief after Martin's cynical predictions turn out to be incorrect.
92* ItsTheBestWhateverEver: He calls out WWE on using this on not only every Wrestlemania, but also during Money In The Bank 2016.
93* LamePunReaction: He has several after the announcers make one, from spending all day at a theme park until he screams, to the forced laughing scene in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX''.
94* LetsGetDangerous: Parodied in the episode right before Wrestlemania XXXI, when Creator/MarinMiller says that he'll never get the episode out in time for him to leave for the event. He responds that he can and then cocks his fist the way Roman Reigns does. Martin then gets swatted on the head, causing him to start sobbing.
95* LogicBomb: Wrestling/KevinOwens says not to believe everything you read on the internet. Martin thinks that means Kevin isn't actually a good wrestler, and that Martin doesn't even exist.
96* TheLoinsSleepTonight: Martin mocks the "[[BlandNameProduct Niagra]]" ad for erectile dysfunction medication, saying people should take it every time they can't do certain things.
97* MarySue: Martin refers to Paige as one InUniverse, but it's a rare complimentary form. He thinks her being unnaturally perfect is a good thing.
98* {{Metaphorgotten}}: Invoked when referring to Seth Rollings' HeelFaceTurn, and how he was trying to rebuild a burnt bridge with Dean Ambrose, which fits his "Architect" title. When he realizes it made too much sense as a metaphor, he revises the statement to "He's called the architect because he hurt his knee" which fits the WWE commentators' random comparisons.
99* MsFanservice:
100** Martin is just in love with {{Wrestling/Paige}}. When she's forced to wear a tutu, Martin still thinks she's hot.
101--->"I didn't even know I had that {{fetish}}."
102** In fact, he loves her so much he was willing to talk about at least part of one of the women's matches when she was in it.
103* MundaneMadeAwesome: Nikki Bella once called Paige a glass of milk, which prompted Martin to make the glass of milk his favorite wrestler.
104-->"Glass of milk! Glass of milk!"
105** One episode started with him drinking the glass while Music/AlsoSprachZarathustra played.
106* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: JBL referred to Paige in a pink tutu as a "Goth Hogwarts Princess", which Martin notes is just like the main character in ''FanFic/MyImmortal''.
107* NonIndicativeName: He considers the [[FinishingMove Finishers]] these, as they're supposed to [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin finish the wrestling match]], but wrestlers keep kicking out before the three count after they're used, making them seem less special. He suggests calling them "nearlies" as the moves used "nearly" end a wrestling match.
108* NukeEm: Drops a nuke on UsefulNotes/NewJersey just to keep Seth Rollins and Jon Stewart from name dropping the state over and over again.
109* OhCrap:
110** Martin's reaction after Daniel Bryan had been eliminated from the Royal Rumble, meaning that it was a guarantee that Roman Reigns would win.
111** Happens on the 3/2/15-3/5/15 show when he realizes that instead of stealing the Intercontinental Title, he stole the US Title, and then remembers who is the current [[Wrestling/AlexanderRusev champion]] at the time.
112* {{OTP}}: InUniverse. Martin happens to ship Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho.
113* OverlyLongGag: Martin is so stunned by a stupid joke the announcers made that he has to spend all day at ''[[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Disney's California Adventure]]'' just to process how bad it is. He finally screams when he gets home.
114** A later awful joke make him go to ''Legoland'', although [[SubvertedTrope Martin recovers faster and just says the joke is shit]].
115** Similarly, during the 3/2/15-3/5/15 show, after Jerry Lawler makes an offensive comment about Los Matadores, he takes an actual trip to Mexico, where halfway through the trip, he once again subverts the joke and realizes that it was racist.
116** Subverted on the 3/16/15-3/26/15 episode when one of Jerry Lawler's jokes about having Dolph Ziggler and Stardust tag teaming up to be called Ziggy Stardust [[ActuallyAGoodIdea sounds like a good idea]].
117** After Jerry Lawler makes another set of terrible puns during the Wrestlemania 31 video, Martin [[NotHyperbole GOES TO WRESTLEMANIA]] (and points at the Wrestlemania sign).
118** In his Money In The Bank 2016 episode, to celebrate Jerry Lawler's then suspension (and to ostensibly retire the gag), he goes to Disney Land Paris.
119** When he tries going on another trip after hearing another awful pun, he comes back stating they can't go anywhere since they spent all their money [[ContinuityNod going to France]].
120** In the Royal Rumble 2017 episode, he just wanders around the opening titles and complains that he didn't get to go on an expensive trip this time.
121** The 1/16/17 RAW episode has Kevin Owens wondering if [[Wrestling/TheBar Cesaro and Sheamus]] will remain friends, court each other, have filthy sex, get married, try to adopt a child, get divorced because they can't agree on adoption, regret getting divorced, grow old, die, and reunite in heaven.
122** On top of the Wrestlemania 33 episode seeing Martin take a trip to Disney Shanghai, he then gets stuck in customs according to the subtitles during the recap portion of the mixed tag match between John Cena and Nikki Bella vs. Miz and Maryse. During that time, he has an automatically generated set of jokes while the match goes on until he returns, out of breath.
123* OverlyNarrowSuperlative: It's the longest running show called "The Mark Remark".
124* OverusedRunningGag: After making the umpteenth variation of Seto Kaiba's CharacterCatchphrase from ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'', Martin was ashamed he'd been stretching that out for the past ten years.
125* PopCulturalOsmosisFailure: Mocks the commentators for frequently making a reference to pop-culture, only for the information about the reference they're making being incorrect.
126-->'''JBL:''' You seen what happened in ''Film/TheRevenant'' didn't you?\
127'''Michael Cole:''' Well...Bear won.\
128'''Martin:''' Ah yes, that bear attack early in the movie? Despite what you might believe having seen it, the bear actually wins and kills [=DeCaprio=]'s character. That explains why there's another 90 minutes of film after that, where the bear just goes home and tends to its young. [[BlatantLies It's a huge plot twist, it turns out it's just a nature documentary]].
129* PottyEmergency: His first few episodes had him not talking about the women's matches because he has to pee every time. He later drops the pretense and makes it clear he hates these matches basically being used to promote for ''Series/TotalDivas''. While the gag gets dropped as the matches stopped being a promotion for the series, there are still allusions made to the joke.
130** Happens again in the 2/23/15-2/26/15 episode where he's just about to get up to go, but the match is already over and he needs to pee. So he goes into a bottle.
131* RapidFireComedy: Martin packs a lot of jokes into each episode.
132* ReferenceOverdosed: Just one episode could fill a ShoutOut page.
133* {{Retool}}: A smaller one; originally the Mark Remark was a weekly recap show covering the highlights of Raw and Smackdown along with the pay-per-views. After getting behind on the reviews due to real life issues, Little Kuriboh decided to change it up to being a monthly show, recapping of the previous month's PPV. He would go on to cover some Episodes of Raw and Smackdown after the brand split, with his last episodes being Survivor Series 2017 and Wrestlemania 34.
134* RunningGag: It's gotten so big, [[RunningGag/TheMarkRemark now there's a subpage]].
135* SarcasmMode: Over half his comments are this.
136* {{Scandalgate}}: Mocked the announcers for twice applying this to things that weren't scandals by any stretch of the word.
137* TheScream: In the Wrestling/SummerSlam 2016 review, when Martin points out that they're going to be ''19'' pay-per-view events a year by the WWE.
138-->'''Martin''': In other words: '''''AAAAAAAAAA--'''''
139* SelfDeprecation:
140** He believes ''he'' was a better choice to win the 2015 Royal Rumble.
141--->'''Martin''': And I'm ''shit''!
142** When a crowd shot shows that Creator/TeamFourStar was in attendance, he also points out "a bald twat who fancies himself" with them, who is obviously Martin.
143** Many episodes occasionally call himself out for using references as a substitute for humor while making ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries''.
144* ShoutOut: See ShoutOut.TheMarkRemark.
145* SigningOffCatchPhrase: Usually ends the episodes with "Toodle-pip!".
146* SpotlightStealingSquad: Initially referred to Raw as "The John Cena Show." Some lesser stars are even called "Not-John Cena." [[RunningGagged This ultimately got phased out]] due to Cena actually eventually becoming OutOfFocus in the actual product in favor of Roman Reigns.
147* StayInTheKitchen: Ruthlessly mocked with how women are often treated on the show. Martin jokes that he didn't know women could wrestle; he thought they just kept getting lost on the way to the kitchen.
148* SuddenlyShouting: After the compilation of John Stewart and Seth Rollings repeatedly saying [[BerserkButton "New Jersey"]], he is then seen shouting at the top of his lungs asking if there is anything worthwhile to be contributed to the show.
149* TheTalk: Was worried that Wrestling/RicFlair was going to tell the audience about the birds and the bees.
150* TakeThat:
151** Given the often underwhelming presentation of the shows, these tend to be thrown at the WWE.
152---> "Hello my fellow Marks, and welcome ''(wincing)'' to intense pain and suffering...[[MoodWhiplash also known as the WWE product]]!"
153** His Wrestlemania 33 recap has him blatantly throwing shade at [=JBL=] for his backstage bullying of fellow commentator Mauro Renallo, that caused him to leave the company at the time of its release.
154* ThatRemindsMeOfASong: If something reminds Martin of a song, he will sing it. Anything from merely saying the word "WesternAnimation/Frozen2013" to Wrestling/JohnCena almost quoting part of [[{{Music/Chumbawamba}} "Tubthumping"]] verbatim.
155--> "I like singing. Even though I'm shit at it."
156* TryingNotToCry: This message appeared on screen twice during the "Wrestlemania XXI" review, first when he realized Booker T writing a novel was more than he ever did, and second when recalling the time Film/TheThreeStooges once hosted ''WWE Raw''.
157* {{Unperson}}: In-universe, Martin considers Zack Ryder this.
158* TheUntwist: InUniverse he pretty much shouts out that Bray Wyatt was not so subtle about calling out the Undertaker. He really mocked it when Bray finally called out Undertaker in WWE Fastlane, but acted like it was some big reveal.
159* VerbalTic: During the Royal Rumble 2015 recap, he had a minor one with calling it the "Royal [=RumBOO=]".
160* ViewersAreGoldfish: Martin will go triple strength on the sarcasm when the WWE writers can't maintain simple continuity from one show to another.
161* VocalEvolution: His voice is more consistently that of an announcer rather than a commentator after the Fastlane special, which often thickens the sarcasm.
162* YouKeepUsingThatWord: The 12/5-6/16 episode has him call out Wrestling/DavidOtunga for overusing the word "literally" when talking about Kalisto's match with Baron Corbin when covering ''TLC 2016''.
163* YoungerThanTheyLook: InUniverse, Martin considers Todd Phillips this, treating him like an overgrown little boy.
