| 26 | |
| 27 | !!Tropes this series has: |
| 28 | |
| 29 | * AlienAbduction |
| 30 | * CloudCuckooLander: ''T.W.'' The ''Alien'' acts and sounds more human than him! |
| 31 | * EpicFail: Pretty much the main source of humor in the show besides Wiseau's mannerisms. For example, in the ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2'' episode he couldn't even ''leave the first room''. |
| 32 | * HairReboot: At the end of Episode 7, Alien undoes T.W.'s new haircut. |
| 33 | * {{Homage}}: The moonbase design is pretty reminiscent of [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]]. |
| 34 | * HypocriticalHumor: While playing ''Driver'', Tommy accuses the alien of having a weird accent, which gives us some insight on how he perceives the world. |
| 35 | * JerkAss: The Alien. How much of one he can be varies within episodes. |
| 36 | * LampshadeHanging: Happens all over the place in episode 10, almost all of it coming [[GenreSavvy from T.W.]] |
| 37 | * NotSoHarmless: When iJustine inexplicably loses a game to T.W., Alien sends out his minion to deliver her penalty... iJustine ends up ''[[LiteralDisarming very much armless.]]'' |
| 38 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: The unnamed alien is called "Alien" by T.W. and is referred to as "Alien" in the credits. |
| 39 | * TheStinger: Each episode ends with T.W. reciting a MemeticMutation. |
