History Series / Danger5

* BilingualDialogue: Ilsa only speaks in subtitled Russian, the rest of the Danger 5 team speaks English, Hitler and various goons speak German, and everyone understands each other perfectly.

->''"What the [[GoshdangItToHeck wallaby]] are those dinosaurs doing with Hitler? I mean, none of this makes any sense!"''

Developed by the creators of ''WebVideo/ItalianSpiderman'', ''Danger 5'' is an oddly compelling action/comedy set in a bizarre AlternateUniverse based on cheesy old TV and pulp fiction cliches. It features the Danger 5 team directly assigned to thwart Hitler's diabolical plans, which involve anything and everything from Japanese robots to Nazi-controlled dinosaurs.

* SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage: The series contains correct English, German, Russian, Italian, French, Japanese, and Cantonese. This is a result of being from Australia's premier multilingual channel, which prides itself on its linguistic diversity.

* WhipItGood: Mind-controlled Ilsa.

* DidntThinkThisThrough: [=McKenzie=] attempts to fight off a zombie infection by getting his pump on. (Jumping jacks. [[ADateWithRosiePalms What kind of jack did you think he meant?]]) Nope, doesn't work.

* PhallicWeapon: A rifle pokes out of a toilet to shoot Hitler. A boy reading porn on the toilet grabs the barrel for ADateWithRosiePalms.

* RaceLift: In season 1, Pierre is played by Italian actor Aldo Mignone. In season 2, he has been recast with Zimbabwean actor Pacharo Mzembe. Becomes truly ridiculous in the TimeTravel episode of season 2, where Mignone returns as Pierre's past self, suggesting some in-universe event that changed Pierre's appearance so radically. To make matters even sillier, the Mignone Pierre immediately recognizes the Mzembe Pierre as his future self.
