Does the Gainax Ending entry seem lopsided to anyone else? "[A] threatening Critic forcing a miserable Doug into bringing him back" sounds more like one person's Alternative Character Interpretation than an actual description of what happens in "The Review Must Go On". There are probably more examples (one immediately below that in Gaslighting, for that matter), but that's the one that sticks out to me the most.

Fastforward to "Wreck-It Ralph vs. Angry Birds" when Donnie called Wreck-It Ralph nostalgic. He meant well, but the meaning that did come ties exactly into the quote. Knowing what Donnie really was, is this Ironic Echo, Foreshadowing, or Fridge Brilliance?

Probably Hilarious in Hindsight. Fridge is supposed to be picking up details that supposedly you missed in the first place (even if it's mostly used these days to pimp entries better suited to WMG), this was an unintended consequence.
Hey, um, given the script that we see Doug writing in "The Review Must Go On", should we switch the spelling of Carl's name to Karl? (And then remove the Alliterative Name trope, of course.)
