* HypocriticalHumor:
** In the second part of his [[http://spoonyexperiment.com/2009/06/25/transformers-revenge-of-the-fallen-review/ Transformers review]] with his brother (not as Spoony, though), there comes this gem of a line:
---> '''Noah/Spoony:''' Who the fuck has movie posters on their walls, really.
** Hint: [[spoiler:they're sitting in front of movie posters. In fact, Noah has so many movie posters that nearly all his reviews have appropriate posters for that review in the background.]]

* ActingForTwo: Besides the basic 'exaggerated snarker persona' he puts on as "The Spoony One", Noah portrays a number of different characters on the show, some one-off and some recurring:
** Dr Insano, a MadScientist alter ego who swiftly proved to be a BreakoutCharacter.
*** Also his Vice-President, Literature/FuManchu, in a one-off appearance.
** Gordon Ramsay in his review of the ''Series/HellsKitchen'' video game.
** "Curtis Craig" (or at least a "Spoony" version of him) at the end of his ''Phantasmagoria 2'' LetsPlay.
** "The Ultimate Spoony", a parodic exaggeration of the Wrestling/UltimateWarrior.
** "Hulk Spogan", same idea but with Wrestling/HulkHogan.
** A one-time appearance as The Iron Sheik, in the same fashion as the previous two.
** Squall of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII'' in his review of that game.
*** The ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX'' and ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX2'' reviews give us Tidus, Yuna and [[spoiler:Sephiroth]], respectively.
** "Spoonette", a ValleyGirl [[GenderBender female Spoony]] seen in the ''Party Mania'' review.
** The Gate Cleaner, supposedly the nephew of the Gate Keeper from the ''[[TabletopGame/{{Atmosfear}} Nightmare]]'' VHS game series.
** Spencer D. Bum (aka "The Spoony Bum"), a variation on Creator/DougWalker's [[WebVideo/BumReviews Chester A. Bum]] character.
** Spoontock of the Klingon Empire in [[WebVideo/TheAngryJoeShow Angry Joe's]] review of ''VideoGame/StarTrekOnline''
** Terl, the {{Camp}}y LargeHam villain of ''Film/BattlefieldEarth'', showed up in WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic's review of that film; the character proved so popular that he then started appearing in Spoony's own reviews.
** Simcoe the Magician in his review of ''{{Skullduggery}}''.



* ItWillNeverCatchOn: When ''Wrestle! Wrestle!'' was still running (in 2010) he made it very clear that he didn't think Wrestling/DanielBryan would ever amount to anything. However, he's willing to admit he was wrong.

* WeUsedToBeFriends: Was thick as thieves with Jason "Creator/LordKat" Pullara, until Jason got several interview offers rescinded by association with Channel Awesome, and zeroed in on Spoony screaming "Betrayal!" on a convention floor as the main culprit, which Jason still won't completely let go of nearly a decade later.
** Unlike most of the former CA producers, he left the site years before [=ChangeTheChannel=] and, despite the ugliness surrounding his departure, was still on good terms with the Walkers. That said, he revealed on Website/{{Twitter}} that he hadn't spoken to them in a long time, not because of a falling out, because of a gradual parting of ways. He even admitted to missing working with them.
