History WebAnimation / JerryJackson

* HypocriticalHumor: Some of the episodes feature it prominently.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Episodes that debuted on Newgrounds in the early years had square dimensions, before going to full wide screen on YouTube.

* ArtEvolution: Mostly averted, as Jerry doesn't really improve as a Flash animator, but there are some differences from late 2000s YouTube episodes compared to early Newgrounds ones. Examples include more static character movements (including legs moving even when no one's walking), and better-ish talking animations and angry emotions for Jerry. Also, his mother does abruptly grow much larger in size by later episodes (and consequently becomes topless like Jon's mom.)

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Technically, as the Jackson family (minus Jerry's mom) are all depicted as having purple skin, while Jon and his mom have yellow skin, Jerry's mom and Merrick have white skin, and so on. Given that the series is presented as Flash animations of Jerry's life, this could all be artistic license, but we've never met Jerry in his alleged reality.
* ArtEvolution: Mostly averted, as Jerry doesn't really improve as a Flash animator, but his mother does abruptly grow much larger in size by later episodes (and consequently becomes topless like Jon's mom.) Later episodes also feature more leg movements from characters, not that it's generally used to show them walking.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Numerous characters are introduced as Jerry's friends or brothers, but never re-appear. Prominent examples include Collin (the title "Big Nose Man" of that episode), Jerry's psychopathic friend Steven from "Life & Death", and Jon's replacement "New Jon" from the "Scunthorpe Festival."

** The whole series is basically a jab at badly made Flash cartoons.

* ReplacementScrappy: In the most recent episode to date, Jerry quits animating and starring in his show to focus on other ventures, and gives it to his older brother Casper, who had never been seen or mentioned by name until then, and who suspiciously sounds like and maintains the same animation style as Jerry. Casper actually became reasonably popular with the late night talk show-style series he launched during the episode, with many one-off past characters appearing in the audience, but Jerry disliked Casper's insults of him and took his show back at the end.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Numerous characters are introduced as Jerry's friends or brothers, but never re-appear. The most prominent example is the "Big Nose Man" episode, as the title character (Jerry's friend Collin) never recurs in the series.

* ItsBeenDone: Averted in the Super Mario episode, as Jerry assumes that his idea to make a Flash parody cartoon of Super Mario Bros. is totally original, and so brilliant that he will win an Oscar (and Jon agrees with him.) The episode ends with Jerry teasing that he'll be working on a parody of The Matrix next, as again, it's something no one has thought of before. By 2006? Of course not!

* TheSimpsonsDidIt: Averted in the Super Mario episode, as Jerry assumes that his idea to make a Flash parody cartoon of Super Mario Bros. is totally original, and so brilliant that he will win an Oscar (and Jon agrees with him.) The episode ends with Jerry teasing that he'll be working on a parody of The Matrix next, as again, it's something no one has thought of before. By 2006? Of course not!

* OopNorth: Jerry apparently lives in Scunthorpe.

* SpecialGuest: A poorly drawn caricature of rapper Nelly in is directly credited as a "special guest star" in "The Races We Have", while other episodes feature Jerry interacting with a Linkin Park and Bruce Willis. Of course, Jerry voices them all.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Oh, so many. One example: Jon offering Jerry a Galaxy Ripple chocolate bar, with Jerry declining and asking if he has wine gums... in an episode about ''racial awareness''.

* MissingEpisode: The "Sex In The Bedroom" episode ends with a teaser for Jerry's next cartoon, about how to install a graphics card on an Amiga 1200 computer. As riveting and informative as his instructions would surely be, the episode was either fake or never released.

* CensorBox: In the ''Super Mario'' parody episode it's present as a part of HypocriticalHumor

* NoFourthWall

* SmallNameBigEgo: Jerry Jackson thinks his works are the greatest.

The series is made by DavidFirth.

Although Firth has in fact sneaked in hints of his involvement, it took a while before Firth openly acknowledged Jerry Jackson as one of his creation.
