I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.
I'm not sure if there's a trope for these situations about canon:
- Alice and Bob's City Living:
- Bob, The Protagonist, is in a universe where he should not logically be able to Time Travel as it's Like Reality, Unless Noted and aims for lifelike realism where possible, yet he manages to Time Travel back to June 2006 in an episode that's like Yet Another Christmas Carol but without Christmas. The episode violates established canon already.
- In the Lifetime Movie of the Week Compressed Adaptation Alice and Bob: Onwards to California! (which essentially is Arc Welding from the series)she's shown to have a different trademark favorite food - cream scones, and drives a Chevrolet Optra sedan, and became a high-ranking manager earlier than in the series.. But in canon, Alice likes blueberry bagels and drives a Honda Accord sedan and hasn't yet become a high-ranking manager. The differences from canon are major, yet no official pronouncement on the movie's canonicity is given.
- In the same movie as above, Carol is half-Nigerian and half-Italian, and has a Money Fetish and an addiction to snack foods, effectively contradicting the series'characterization of her. series, Carol is shown as having gotten to CEO by aged 30, yet the movie adaptation says she got to CEO aged 35, contradicting the series, also, some details of Carol's life don't mesh up; in the series, Carol is half-Nigerian and half-Samoan with a Trademark Favorite Food of white chocolate bars, and doesn't have a Money Fetish.
