History WebVideo / TheOmega

While a part of Website/ChannelAwesome, The Omega hosted the VideoReviewShow ''The Omega: Iteration 0: Sic Transit Mundus'' and short opinion pieces called ''This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things''. The latter followed his move to Website/RTGomerProductions, where he also hosts ''Omega Reviews'' and ''Omega's Specials''. He has been a member of two podcasts: ''Podcast/LesbianTalk'', with RealLife wife WebVideo/DiamandaHagan, and ''Podcast/ThespianTalk'', with Holly Christine (former webmistress of Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses), The Cat (one of the hosts of ''Nerd to the Third Power'', also on TGWTG), and Gomer the Ranting Thespian (of RT Gomer Productions). His show ''What Went Right?'' looks at the golden moments of 1980s children's TV programming.

Note that as a trans man who came out quite some time after he started making videos, some of the links or the pronouns therein may be out of date.

* TheFaceless: In videos, he wears a black mask concealing his face, which happens to look similar to the masks his wife Diamanda Hagan's minions wear. His former website claimed he ''has no face''.

** He reviews ''Film/AlmightyThor'' with MikeyInsanity.
** To date, he's had [[http://www.agonybooth.com/video_shows/Mr_Mendos_Hack_Attack/Rubber.aspx two]] [[http://www.agonybooth.com/video397_Last_Unicorn_Movie_Farrow_Arkin.aspx crossovers]] with [[Website/TheAgonyBooth Mr. Mendo]].

* CatchPhrase: "Hush it, lobster."
* DistaffCounterpart: In appearance only, he strongly resembles WebVideo/ToddInTheShadows
* TheFaceless: He wears a black mask concealing his face. As it looks similar to the masks Diamanda Hagan's minions wear, fans had EpilepticTrees about him being a former minion, which WordOfGod denied.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: He was a captive held in a room with no recollection of his abduction.
* MustHaveCaffeine: The RealLife Omega loves his coffee very much.
* NonHumanSidekick: The talking lobster Giovanni Jones.
* OntologicalMystery: Omega only has vague memories of his past. He has no idea how he got where he is.

* SpeechImpediment: Giovanni has a lisp.
* WorldOfWeirdness: The Reviewaverse. He now lives in a country run by an immortal super villain and has a talking lobster for a sidekick. This universe gets weird.

In a fandom run by alpha geeks and hipsters, where can John Q. Public-Geek turn? To the Omega, once captured and tortured by persons unknown for sins against fandom, Omega has escaped and searches for justice...telling you exactly what they think on movies, books, games, and all the other things that make geeks what they are.
