Web Animation / HourofPoop

HourofPoop are two brothers and YouTube Poop-ers who, rather than draw from common sources, make the majority of their videos with more uncommon media, often British films and television series, though they also collaborated on "Peter Man 1". They have subsequently released merchandise based on their most popular gags.

Some of their most notable poops include:

• "Buck Alone"
• "Noddy and the Journey To Hell"
• "Toot Raider - Lara's Quest for Green Eggs and Ham"
• "The Trainkillers"
• "Toad Has Wind in His Willows"
• "Toad's Wintry Willies"
• "Wallace Discovers the Dark Side of the Moon"
• "Thovis"
• "Buzz Catches COVID-19"
• "Friar's Rubbing Wood - Fall Of Nottingham"

---

HourofPoop have used the following tropes in their works:

• Ability Required to Proceed: An in-universe example occurs within the Tom Hanks video game in the opening of "Buzz Catches COVID-19". The player must collect a set of wings in the game's fifth level, which are necessary to avoid a Lava Pit during the escape sequence phase of the Bert boss battle. If the player neglected to get them in Level 5, however, Tom Hanks will instead be forced to run headlong into the lava pit, ending the game and displaying a message telling the player where to find the wings afterward.
  GAME OVER
  You forgot to collect the wings in Level 5, dumbass.
• Abusive Parents: In "Verse Visa", Paul Bultitude has given his son's teacher written permission to boil the child if he misbehaves.
• Actor Allusion: Characters who share an actor are sometimes merged, for example Buck Russell is the brother-in-law of Neal Page, who is the father of Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin played both Kevin and Buck's nephew Miles).
  • Professor Marcus asks Mrs. Wilberforce if she uses the Force.
  • Peter Sellers in the Trainkillers is distracted by The Pink Panther.
  • The sound clip of Mace Windu addressing Wallace is taken from Pulp Fiction.
  • The Credits Gag in "Toot Raider - Lara's Quest for Green Eggs and Ham" credits Dumbledore (played by Richard Harris as A Man Called Horse which Harris starred in.)
• Adaptational Badass:
  • Not only is Jameson Da Chief, he's also "The Phantom Menace."
  • In multiple videos, Wallace is a Sith lord.
• Adaptational Jerkass:
  • The Fat Controller and Lara Croft are both murderous and verbally abusive. Kevin McCallister isn't much better, happily destroying his uncle's beloved Wolverine action figure.
  • Fiona gets so fed up over Shrek's flatulence in "Shronk & The Ass Go Forth" that she declares she can't wait to marry Farquaad, so she can put down all ogres. Later, when Donkey's panicking over Shrek being hurt, she tells him if he really wants to help, he should go off in the woods and die (which he does).
• Adaptational Nice Guy: A minor example in Fall Of Nottingham. When Friar Tuck steals Skippy's ice pop, Prince John tells him to give it back and only tries to punish him when he refuses.
• Adaptational Villainy: Friar Tuck in Fall Of Nottingham, who, unlike his canon version, is willing to get his hands dirty with blood, is into black magic of the worst kind, and doomed Nottingham out of pettiness by saluting the sun and yielding eternal destruction upon Nottingham.
• Adaptation Personality Change:
  • Robin Hood is a lot more perverted than he was in the original Disney film, if his obsession with "bitches" is anything to go by.
  • Thomas the Tank Engine here has an undying love of fish. A stark contrast from the source material where he absolutely loathes fish. Or more exact: The smell and sight of them.
• And There Was Much Rejoicing:
  • Everyone celebrates the Fat Controller's death in "The Trainkillers" with a giant party on the rooftops. When his body is knocked into one of Thomas' carriages, the latter notes that it "serves [him] right."
  • In "Fall of Nottingham", Sir Hiss is pleased as punch when he notices that his rival, Guy of Gisborne, is dead.
• Any Last Words?: Guy of Gisborne asks Robin a variant of this while holding him at sword point. Robin's response just infuriates him.
  Gisborne: You know any prayers, my friend?
  Robin: (defiant) I'm an atheist!
  Gisborne: (enraged) You shall die for that!
• Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: In "Buzz Catches COVID-19", James Cagney's rules for the supermarket are strictly no jerking off, no crack, and no listening to Queen.
• Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: In the second half of "Thovis", Thomas sprouts a pair of fleshy legs, grows to gigantic size, and goes on a rampage through town.
• The Bad Guy Wins: In Friar's Rubbing Wood: Friar Tuck ends up burning Nottingham to ash with his Salute the Sun spell. Most of the townsfolk cannot escape in time, and those who were safe can only watch as everyone dies. Where is Friar Tuck during this? He boarded a cruise ship and laughs as it sets sail away from the destruction, having successfully duped the townsfolk into forgiving him for his misdeeds.
• Barred from the Afterlife: A rare example of this being a good thing for a character, in "Friar's Rubbing Wood", Robin Hood falls into in Hell after having been condemned by Friar Tuck and the Mole. A few scenes later, he is kicked out of the very same hellish pit he fell into by the unseen, but clearly annoyed Devil.
• Beast with a Human Face: Mrs. Wilberforce's parrot Gordon has the head (and personality) of Gordon Ramsay.
• Be Careful What You Wish For: In "Verse Visa", Paul Bultitude wishes that he could be in back in Birmingham, as he spent the happiest days of his life there. The magic stone grants his wish... by separating his head from his body and teleporting it to the Birmingham Bull Ring.
• Berserk Button:
  • Telling Thomas he cannot have fish is not a good idea.
  • Don't try to damage Buck's Wolverine action figure, or else he'll come after you.
  • Ice pops are Serious Business to Friar Tuck. Destroying his ice cream or getting the last one before him isn't a very good idea, as Jango Fett and Skippy Rabbit can attest to.
• Big "WHY?!": In "Thovis", Sean Connery lets out one of these after all the chaos going on around him makes his house of cards collapse.
• Big "YES!": The Cat in the Hat has one in "Toot Raider - Lara's Quest for Green Eggs and Ham" when Lara delivers the green eggs to him, allowing him to grow to gargantuan size by consuming them.
• Black Comedy: A lot of jokes in their videos tend to get really scary in how demented they can get:
  • "Shronk & The Ass Go Forth" ends with Donkey (who as mentioned above in Adaptational Jerkass, died after Fiona demanded him to) being cooked as food by Shrek and Fiona.
  • In "Festivities With Crooners, Firemen and a Bucket", there is a Running Gag of Frank Sinatra acting in violent and psychotic ways, starting with shooting Bing Crosby:
    Frank Sinatra: I've arranged to give Bing Crosby a bullet in the chest.
    • In the same video, he makes a lecherous smile at Holly Willoughby, while singing, and immediately after sings of "Tasty Peasants", while Little John scowls in disgust.
  • In a different part of the same video, Fireman Sam has an Imagine Spot of cooking Bacon a few seconds after Peppa Pig shows up.
  • The whole premise of "Buzz Catches COVID-19".
  • In "Friar's Rubbing Wood - Fall of Nottingham", Robin Hood briefly gets sent to Hell for no reason, followed by Little John telling Robin that "You're burning in hell!"
• Black Magic: Friar Tuck is a devotee of dark arts of the worst kind, and casts the sun to invoke destruction upon Nottingham.
• Brits Love Tea: The British troops in "A Brew Too Far" cannot function without their tea. Major-General Urquhart won't settle for anything less than Yorkshire tea, and spends most of the video trying to obtain some.
• Butt-Monkey:
  • Policeman Plod exists only to be shot in the head.
  • John Cleese, or at least characters played by him, frequently appears as an innocent bystander who suffers some sort of misfortune once the chaos breaks out in various videos.
• Calling Your Bathroom Breaks:
  • The pilot in "Toad's Wintry Willies" announces that he needs the bathroom by yelling "NEED A POOOOOOOO!", much to Toad's frustration.
  • In "The Trainkillers", the Fat Controller ends one conversation by announcing that he needs to pee. Which he promptly does, in full view of the people he was just speaking to.
• Camping a Crapper: Jango Fett ambushes Robin in the lavatory tent during the Ara Ara Turd.
• Car Meets House: In "The Trainkillers", the Fat Controller crashes into Mrs. Wilberforce's house because he took his eyes off the road to gloat at Michael Rosen after running the latter over. He dies in the crash.
• Caught with Your Pants Down: Uncle Fester vigorously humps a door in "A Damn Family". The rest of the family overhear Fester and are disgusted once they realize what he's doing, with Gomez practically disowning his brother afterward.
  Morticia: Why don't you speak to Fester, darling? He's right outside the door.
  Gomez: I would speak with Fester if he didn't FUCK my DOOR!
• Chekhov's Gag: In "Toad's Wintry Willies", Toad shoots down UKIP Leader Nigel Farage's plane. In "A Brew Too Far", Farage returns the favour.
• Co-Dragons: In “Fall of Nottingham”, both the Sheriff of Nottingham and Sir Ector serve as Prince John’s primary enforcers.
• Continuity Nod:
  • In "The Perks of Central Parker", Jameson shows off an article featuring Frank Sinatra's death at the hands of The Moon - as featured in "Toot Raider - Lara's Quest for Green Eggs and Ham".
  • In "Friar's Rubbing Wood - Fall Of Nottingham", the Sheriff of Nottingham shows a news report of Friar Tuck getting stuck in a playground at a MocDonald's, a location from "Scungus & The Witch's Malt". Also, one of the headlines in the news ticker at the bottom is about Rayman being found dead in "Peedus Strolls In The Park".
• Cool and Unusual Punishment: In “Friar’s Rubbing Wood”, Prince John punishes Friar Tuck for his refusal to apologize for stealing Skippy’s ice pop by sentencing him to work for Electronic Arts.
• Crappy Holidays: "Wallace's Christmas Conundrum". As the title implies, Wallace finds his quiet Christmas interrupted by dozens of uninvited guests. While he's happy to welcome them at first, they quickly prove to be selfish, greedy jerks who think nothing of threatening Gromit and destroying his property. Eventually Wallace can't take it anymore, and he hacks them all to pieces with his lightsaber.
• Credits Gag: There is a somewhat logical, somewhat nonsensical set of credits at the end of "Toot Raider - Lara's Quest for Green Eggs and Ham."
• Crossover Relatives: In "Buck Alone", Neal Page and Buck Russell are both relatives of the McCallister family.
• Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Mild-mannered Wallace may seem like an absent-minded Bungling Inventor from Wigan, but threaten him or his cheese and he becomes the unstoppable Sith Lord known as Darth Wallace. He also proudly hoards toilet paper from Safeway in "Buzz Catches COVID-19".
• Death Is Cheap: Unlike everyone else who dies in "Friar's Rubbing Wood - Fall Of Nottingham", Prince John immediately resurrects after Little John kills him by blowing him up with propane, simply through the act of someone saying that he isn't actually dead.
• Decomposite Character:
  • "Fall of Nottingham" features Sir Guy of Gisborne from 1938's The Adventures of Robin Hood, as well as Sir Hiss from the Disney film, who was loosely based off of Sir Guy from the Robin Hood story. This is something lampshaded in the video's description, with the added gag of the two being rivals.
  • Similarly to the above example, Disney's anthropomorphic Robin Hood and Errol Flynn's Robin Hood are two separate characters in the story. Whereas the former lands himself on Prince John's shitlist, the latter spends the story as an Innocent Bystander.
• Decoy Antagonist: Guy of Gisborne is this in "Fall of Nottingham", being the Dragon-in-Chief to the more Laughably Evil Prince John and his other lackeys. At first it seems like they are going to fill their traditional antagonist role, with their plan to capture/kill Robin Hood...then the riot at the Ara Ara Turd happens; not only is Guy killed after a fight with Robin, but Prince John no longer cares about capturing Robin in favor of Friar Tuck, who becomes the YTP's Villain Protagonist.
• Decoy Protagonist: The first half of "Fall of Nottingham" revolves around Robin Hood and Little John as you'd expect, but after the events of the Ara Ara Turd they're shunted to the side in order to focus on Friar Tuck and his sinister revenge plot. In fact, they're completely absent for the second half until the ending, when they witness the destruction of Nottingham from a train.
  • Similarly, Noddy vanishes from the second half of "Noddy and the Journey To Hell", with Big Ears and Plod being the ones to make the titular journey to Hell.
• Demonic Possession: In "Fall of Nottingham", it's implied this has happened to Maid Marian after Skippy accidentally kills Lady Cluck, courtesy of Voodoo Doll that Friar Tuck was using for his dark magic.
• Deus ex Machina: In "Fall of Nottingham", Robin has been cornered by Guy of Gisborne with no chance of escape. Suddenly, a woman driving a three-wheeler drives onto the fairgrounds, loses control of her car, and hits Gisborne, killing him.
• Disproportionate Retribution:
  • In "Buzz Catches COVID-19", after Buzz fails to bring back any toilet paper, Woody discovers Buzz has been hoarding some, and gets revenge by saying Buzz didn't wash his hands after going out, making everyone assume he has the aforementioned virus. He ends up getting kicked out of Andy's room.
  • In "Toad's Wintry Willies", Toad beats his pilot to death because the man keeps cutting their flight short to take bathroom breaks.
  • Shoot Friar Tuck's ice pop? He WILL catch up with you and obliterate you!
  • Friar Tuck decides to destroy Nottingham with his dark magics upon being humiliated at the Ara Ara Turd over not getting away with stealing Skippy Rabbit's ice cream. Before then, he used the voodoo doll of Maid Marian to control her in order to damn Skippy eternally. All this over an ice pop.
  • In "Festivities with Crooners", Grand Moff Tarkin fires the Death Star at Hyacinth Bouquet—his sister, in this video—because she called him up while he was in a meeting with his officers and embarrassed him.
• Downer Ending: The ending of "Friar's Rubbing Wood" has all of Nottingham obliterated by the sun, while Friar Tuck himself heads off on a cruise to Las Vegas, where he will be eventually arrested for killing the Sheriff of Nottingham several years later.
• Do Wrong, Right: The Fat Controller may want Professor Marcus's gang to kill his trains, but he doesn't want them damaging his railway in the process. When Major Courtney does just that by using a bomb to kill James, the Fat Controller storms over to Mrs. Wilberforce's house to chew the gang out.
• The Drag-Along: In "Lara Bungles in Binley Jungle", Bungle would much rather be watching Stranger Things at home than traipsing through "this bollocking jungle" with Zippy, and he spends the whole video finding things to complain about.
• Dragon-in-Chief: Subverted with Guy of Gisborne, who is far more competent than Prince John and his other lackeys, with little to none of their laughable qualities. He's initially presented as being the only real threat to Robin Hood, coming up with and leading the plan to capture/kill him at the Ara Ara Turd...only for to get killed in a hilariously anti-climactic manner after a single fight with Robin. At which point, Prince John doesn't even care about Robin anymore.
• Easy Amnesia: In "Fall of Nottingham", Robin has amnesia when he returns from his brief trip to Hell. An annoyed Friar Tuck tries to jog his memories by whacking him on the head with a washtub, but this just knocks Robin out. He regains consciousness, and his memories, when he hears Little John say the word "bitches".
• Eaten Alive: The Moon eats Frank Sinatra like a biscuit in "Toot Raider - Lara's Quest for Green Eggs and Ham".
• Engineered Heroics: Friar Tuck puts a spell on the Moon to turn it hostile so that he can "save the day".
• Even Evil Has Standards: Even the greedy Prince John and his lackey Sir Hiss find Friar Tuck taking Skippy's ice pop and refusal to apologise deplorable. The prince also blows his stack at Hiss for cursing on his Christian Minecraft server.
• Evil Is Petty:
  • Prince John is shown to be a griefer in Minecraft who takes great pleasure in destroying villagers' houses.
  • Friar Tuck kills Jango Fett because the bounty hunter accidentally shoots his ice pop, takes another ice pop from Skippy after the little rabbit cuts the line before him and refuses to give it back and apologize after Prince John tells him so, and then casts a spell to destroy the entire city of Nottingham just because they laughed at him.
• Exact Words: The Fat Controller never actually said he would pay Professor Marcus's gang to kill the trains, a fact that he smugly points out when Markus calls him to demand payment.
• Eye Beams: Gandalf fires blaster bolts from his eyes to kill an annoying crow in "Miscreants of Middle-Earth".
• Eye Scream: In "Miscreants of Middle-Earth", Gandalf sticks a fork in Sam's eye. Sam takes it in stride, and the fork is gone by the next shot.
• False Reassurance: Friar Tuck convinces almost everyone that him casting the sun is a miracle that he performed in order to defeat the moon, instead of a curse that will doom Nottingham. The only one who doesn't seem to believe in him is the Sherrif of Nottingham, rightfully feeling suspicious about the friar's true intentions.
• Fat Bastard: In "Friar's Rubbing Wood", the rotund Friar Tuck is a horrible person willing to do unspeakably evil things to avenge petty slights.
• Five-Second Foreshadowing: In "Miscreants of Middle-Earth", Sam runs past a sign that says "Do not feed the troll" during a trippy sequence. Seconds later, he literally runs into the mouth of a troll and gets eaten alive.
  Troll: (smacking lips) Tastes like fuckin' shit. I want more!
• Flat-Earth Atheist: Robin Hood claims to be an atheist in Friar's Rubbing Wood during the duel with Sir Gisbourne at the Ara Ara Turd, in spite of being sent to hell literally the day prior.
• Fragile Speedster: Hank Hill is faster than Little John, and when the two of them throw down he overwhelms Little John with a barrage of aggressive attacks... at first. Once Little John gets his second wind, two hits are all it takes to send Hank flying off the screen.
• Full-Conversion Cyborg: In "The Toast Awakens", Luigi is kidnapped by Jawas and converted into a GNK droid. Nothing remains of his original flesh-and-blood body but his face, though he doesn't seem to mind.
• Gasshole: Major-General Urquhart.
• Gilligan Cut: In "Thovis", Thomas and Oliver find their tracks blocked by Terrence. Oliver scoffs that Terrence can't stop him. Smash Cut to a battered and bruised Oliver whimpering in pain while Thomas laughs at him.
• Gross-Up Close-Up: One on Friar Tuck's face in "Friar's Rubbing Wood - Fall Of Nottingham" when Prince John calls him a disgusting, fat inbred.
• Harbinger of Impending Doom: The Moon warns Wallace and Gromit of what Christmas will bring, but they do not hear him.
• Heroic BSoD: Buzz undergoes one in "Buzz Catches COVID-19" after being kicked out of Andy's house. He gets better after several other Buzzes take him into their social bubble.
• Hope Spot: A comedic example occurs in "Miscreants of Middle-Earth". Gandalf is concerned by how much time Bilbo has spent shut up in his room working on his YouTubePoop. He urges Bilbo to give it a rest and go outside, and for a moment, Bilbo seems to take his advice. Then Bilbo declares that he's thought of an ending to his Poop, puts on the ring and runs back inside, chuckling to himself as Gandalf pounds on the door in frustration.
• How We Got Here: "Fall of Nottingham" starts with Friar Tuck shooting the Sheriff of Nottingham (and subsequently getting arrested) on live television, with Alan-A-Dale showing up to tell the story of Friar Tuck's various wrongdoings and the Fall of Nottingham.
• Human Cannonball: In "Fall of Nottingham", Friar Tuck fires himself out of a cannon so he can reach an airborne Jango Fett and attack him.
• Human Sacrifice: In "Fall of Nottingham", Friar Tuck sacrifices Skippy Rabbit and Sir Ector as part of a satanic ritual to salute the sun.
• I Ate WHAT?!: In "Buzz Catches COVID-19", Woody is eating ice cream, but Ron Weasley tells him it's bogey (as in snot) flavored, which makes Woody scream.
• If I Can't Have You…: In "Fall of Nottingham", Friar Tuck and the sheriff of Nottingham were once in a relationship before the sheriff broke things off. When Friar Tuck confronts him about this on live television, the sheriff bluntly retorts that "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" and that he was just in it for sex. These comments send Tuck into a murderous rage, and he shoots the sheriff dead.
• Immune to Bullets: In "Thovis", Grunkle Stan shoots the rampaging Thomas in the face with a bazooka. This just ticks Thomas off.
• Jerkass:
  • Wallace and Gromit hoard toilet paper from Safeway. Wallace even says "hoarding's our speciality!" and attack people at their Christmas parties.
  • James Cagney in "Buzz Catches COVID-19", who hurls insults at Buzz at the store when he tries to find toilet paper.
• "Just So" Story: In "Lara Bungles in Binley Jungle", Lara shoots a man who wouldn't share his cake with her, only for the man to reveal that he can't die. The man then jumps off a cliff and flies away by flapping his arms, turning into an eagle in the process. And that, the narrator informs us, is where birds come from.
• Karma Houdini: Wallace and Gromit face no consequences for hoarding toilet paper and stopping others from getting it in "Buzz Catches COVID-19".
• Karma Houdini Warranty:
  • Friar Tuck may have escaped punishment for praising the sun and calling down destruction upon Nottingham, killing thousands in the process, but years later, he eventually gets arrested for shooting the Sheriff of Nottingham live on TV.
  • The Sheriff himself had the sense to flee Nottingham due to rightfully suspecting the Friar was committing foul play. Though he managed to survive the annihilation of his home and become a successful late night talk show host, he is ultimately killed by Friar Tuck for spurning his advances and humiliating him on live TV.
• Killed Off for Real: Hamm in "Buzz Catches COVID-19". He gets shattered after being hit by a car while trying to cross the street to Al's Whore Barn, and any appearance by Hamm in other footage lifted from the films is edited out to keep it up.
  Rex: Oh well, he died. ^note His original line was "Oh well, we tried."
  • The sherrif of Nottingham is shot dead by Friar Tuck at the beginning of "Friar's Rubbing Wood".
  • Heavily implied to have been the fate of the people of Nottingham who weren't able to evacuate in the end of "Friar's Rubbing Wood".
• Kill Sat: "Friar's Rubbing Wood" has Friar Tuck praise the sun, turning it into this as it rains solar death upon Nottingham.
• Literal Metaphor: Sir Guy of Gisbourne rams Sir Hiss's words down his throat... by literally shoving a line of text, spelling out Hiss's previous words, into Hiss's mouth.
• Lovable Sex Maniac: Lots of characters have been reimagined as this, notably Toad and Wallace.
• Made of Explodium: In "Thovis", Grunkle Stan crashes into the Sodor General Hospital after being sent flying by a kick from Thomas. Somehow, this produces an explosion which levels the whole building.
• Meaningful Name: Doubles as Stealth Pun: The Sun in Fall Of Nottingham has the face of Stephen Fry. In the end, frying is exactly what the Sun does to Nottingham.
• Metafiction: "Miscreants of Middle-Earth" is a YouTubePoop video about Bilbo Baggins making a YouTubePoop video, also titled "Miscreants of Middle-Earth".
• Misplaced Retribution: During the Ara Ara Turd brawl in "Friar's Rubbing Wood", Friar Tuck is Shot in the Ass by Trigger. However he assumes it was Sir Ector due to Ector being behind him when he turns around and attacks him.
• Mood Whiplash: As Buzz sits on the wall, the Moon (Charles Laughton) begins to rise in time to the lighthearted nursery rhyme "The Man in the Moon" only to shout at Buzz in a less than child-friendly fashion.
• My God, What Have I Done?: Although he doesn't say it, Skippy Rabbit seems to have this reaction in "Friar's Rubbing Wood" after accidentally killing Lady Cluck
• Named by the Adaptation: "Friar's Rubbing Wood" gives Friar Tuck the first name of Archibald.
• Narrow Annihilation Escape: Friar Tuck, the Sheriff of Nottingham, Trigger, Robin Hood, Little John, Mole, Ratty and Rabbit are shown to have escaped Nottingham before it is destroyed by the sun. Prince John and Sir Hiss, meanwhile, managed to avoid it due to being in space at the time.
• Nightmare Sequence: "The Silly Sods of Sodor" reveals that Gordon still has nightmares about Thomas's rampage in "THOVIS"; he dreams that he is a hot cross bun baking in the sun, only for Thomas, in his rampaging form, to appear and have Gordon for breakfast, resulting in Gordon waking up with a start and disturbing the other engines in the shed.
• Noodle Implements: In "Friar's Rubbing Wood", Friar Tuck is seen packing a suitcase to leave Nottingham. Among the items he puts in are a baseball bat, a plunger, and a box of Viagra.
• Not Helping Your Case: When Bungle tells Lara that Zippy was looking at her ass, the indignant Zippy blurts out that he was, in fact, looking at her tits. Cue an angry Lara chasing the two of them through the jungle.
• Not Hyperbole: After Sir Hiss criticizes his plans for capturing Robin Hood, Guy of Gisborne angrily demands that Prince John let him "ram those words down his throat". He then grabs Sir Hiss and proceeds to force-feed the snake a physical manifestation of his own words.
• Now What?: Prince John asks Sir Hiss this after the end, revealing Prince John managed to survive being tossed into the depths of space by using balloons as helmets.
• Once an Episode: The Moon (Charles Laughton) will always make an appearance, even if it's just as a logo in "The Perks of Peter Parker." It even plays a major role in the climax of "Friar's Rubbing Wood".
• Only in It for the Money: Professor Marcus and his gang are against killing the trains at first, but they agree to take the job after the Fat Controller shows them a drawer full of cash. When they finish the job and learn that he has no intention of paying them, things get ugly.
• Onrushing Army: As the Ara Ara Turd spirals out of control, a fierce battle erupts between the citizens of Nottingham and Prince John’s army, who clash using this trope. Nottingham’s primary combatants include Lady Cluck, the warthog archer, Nutsy, Little John riding a dinosaur, Rick Sanchez, Lefou and Gaston’s men, and Harold the fish. The Sheriff of Nottingham leads Captain Crocodile, the rhinos, the wolves, and Sir Ector.
• Parody Product Placement: In "Thovis", Harold calms a rampaging Thomas down by feeding him a crateful of Snicker's.
  Harold: You're not you when you're hungry!
• Pie in the Face: Friar Tuck is on the receiving end of this gag when he attends the Sheriff of Nottingham's talk show. Considering how vindictive Tuck is later shown to be, he takes this with shockingly good humor.
  Friar Tuck: (cheerfully) Well, that ain't the first time I've had cream on my face!
• Please, I Will Do Anything!: In "Buck Alone", when Uncle Buck asks Kevin for his prized Wolverine action figure back, he says he'll do anything to have it back. After giving a look, Kevin has him record Neal singing in the shower.
• Poke the Poodle: In "Miscreants of Middle-Earth", Gandalf declares that Shadow the Hedgehog is an altogether evil character who will do such nefarious things as farting on Darth Sidious and corrupting Gandalf's hard drive.
• Politically Incorrect Villain: When Robin declares that he's an atheist, Guy of Gisbourne is clearly angered and tells him he'll die for it.
• Pop-Cultural Osmosis Failure: Fester Addams is the only member of the family who doesn't know who Gordon or any of the other characters from Thomas The Tank Engine is.
• The Power of the Sun:
  • In "Fall of Nottingham", Friar Tuck saves Nottingham from the moon's wrath by using an occult ritual to salute the sun. The sun then annihilates Nottingham and everyone in it with a beam of concentrated sunlight, exactly as Tuck intended.
  • Subverted in "Miscreants of Middle-Earth". Tuck again tries to call upon the sun to save Bilbo and the dwarves from the trolls, only for Stephen Fry to disappear as his tweets become private, leaving the trolls confused but unharmed.
• Power-Up Food: The Green Eggs and Ham serve as this for the Cat in the Hat, who grows to gigantic size upon eating them.
• Pragmatic Villainy: Upon discovering that Marcus's gang had used a bomb to kill James, the Fat Controller is beyond pissed. Not out of any concern for innocent bystanders who may've been injured or killed in the explosion but because of the damage it caused to his railway infrastructure.
• Pre Ass Kicking One Liner:
  • "It's no use prevaricating about the bush." Doubly funny because in the source material this is a banal expression used when Wallace is worrying about his finances. Here, he uses it before unleashing his wrath on the cheese-hating Jedi.
  • "You want bounties? I'll give you bounties!", said by Friar Tuck as he tackles Jango Fett out of the sky.
• Psychopathic Manchild:
  • Uncle Buck argues with the McCallisters the same way Kevin would and his most prized possession is a Wolverine action figure, which Kevin decides to destroy and Buck tries to murder him for it.
  • Friar Tuck as well; he's a practitioner of dark arts, is shown scaring children after getting stuck in a MocDonald's playground early on in the video, and has no problem with stealing an ice pop from Skippy Rabbit, despite his and everyone else's objections.
• Pun:
  • In Tesco, the Wooster sauce has Hugh Laurie on the label (referencing his role as Bertie Wooster in the television series) whilst the Onion Sauce has Shrek, who famously compares ogres to onions.
  • Buzz is determined that there must be a safe way (to cross the road). The camera pans up to reveal a Safeway supermarket.
  • Fiona tells Shrek "It's destiny!" right as he backs up into a copy of Destiny on the wall behind him.
• Punctuated! For! Emphasis!: In "Friar's Rubbing Wood", Prince John calls Friar Tuck a "DISGUSTING! FAT! INBRED!" in this manner.
• Reference Overdosed: Particularly in the 2019 Christmas video "Wallace's Christmas Conundrum", in which almost all the principal characters from previous videos come to Wallace's house for Christmas.
• Running Gag:
  • The face of the moon is always that of Charles Laughton. The sun, meanwhile, is Stephen Fry.
  • Thomas the Tank Engine expressing a desire for fish, then going on a rampage when he is denied it.
• Serious Business: Cheese for Wallace, tea for Major-General Urquhart.
• Shot in the Ass: In "Friar's Rubbing Wood - Fall Of Nottingham", Jango Fett shoots Lefou in the butt when he arrives at the Ara Ara Turd. Friar Tuck also gets shot in the butt when the Ara Ara Turd turns into an all-out brawl.
• Show Within a Show: "Buck Alone" has Crackerblanca (Casablanca with Wallace and Wendolene), "Wallace's Christmas Conundrum" has The Arm that Holds The Cracker, and "Thovis" has From Sodor with Love (a James Bond spoof starring James the engine).
• Sinister Minister: Friar Tuck, the Villain Protagonist of "Friar's Rubbing Hood - Fall of Nottingham". A man of the cloth, a murderer, and a practitioner of dark magic.
  Friar Tuck: Jesus died for our sins. Hee hee hee! One more won't hurt!
• Sinister Sentient Sun: The Sun in "Friar's Rubbing Wood", which yields eternal destruction to the city of Nottingham after Friar Tuck salutes it.
• Sir Swears-a-Lot: The Fat Con... Sir Topham Hat.
• Sixth Ranger: Subverted. In "Buzz Catches COVID-19", Shrek joins Buzz’s team (him, Rex, Hamm, Potato Head, and Slinky) to get some toilet paper, but disappears after walking off Andy’s roof.
• Skewed Priorities: Friar Tuck goes after Jango Fett during the Ara Ara Turd. Is he doing this to save his friend Robin Hood from a bloodthirsty bounty hunter? Nope. He's doing this because one of Jango's stray shots destroyed the ice pop that Friar Tuck was about to eat, and he wants revenge.
• Soundtrack Dissonance: The triumphant finale of Alexander Scriabin's Symphony No. 1 plays over the ending of "Friar's Rubbing Wood", when the sun destroys Nottingham.
• Superpowered Evil Side: Darth Wallace.
• Surprisingly Happy Ending: "Buzz Catches COVID-19", despite what it's referencing. Buzz is accused of having the coronavirus after his toilet paper hoarding is discovered by Woody. As a result, he is sent out of Andy's room, goes on a lonely walk, ruminates on his helplessness while sitting on a wall, and falls into a trash can after being scared by the Moon. It appears there will be a Downer Ending where Buzz will remain in the trash forever... until five Buzzes help Buzz out of the trash can, and allows our Buzz to live with them because of their mutual infections.

  • In "Miscreants Of Middle-Earth", Gandalf asked Frodo how he'll buy him a birthday present. Frodo responded that he'll use Amazon, which led to Gandalf having a disturbed premonition about The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power before he let out a Big "NO!".
  • In "The Toast Awakens", Mario and Luigi crash-land on Tatooine, where Mario points out they've never been there before while showing clips taken from The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, and Obi-Wan Kenobi to make fun of how often the Live-Action Star Wars series' seem to take place around Tatooine at some point or other.
