Baleful Polymorph was renamed per TRS


* BalefulPolymorph: Episode one ends with Topsy turning Rick into a gorilla, and episode four ends with Topsy turning Cylon into a werewolf. By the creator's admission, it's basically the same joke twice, but the DVD for episode four's movie (''Werewolf in a Girl's Dormitory'') came with instructions for creating a werewolf and they felt obligated to use it.

As of season two, the show has switched to a half-hour format, riffing shorts rather than entire movies, with a ''much'' quicker production time and a stronger emphasis on story. However, they plan on riffing a feature-film for the Season 2 finale[[note]]Originally meant to be ''{{Film/Starcrash}}'' but upon discovering their inspirations, ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'', were planning to use it for Season 11, they planned to switch it to ''{{Film/Slipstream1989}}'', although the actual film is still unconfirmed[[/note]]. Sadly, it has also [[https://agonywolfmedia.com/contact-and-faqs/ been confirmed]] that Episode 206 will be the final episode of the series, citing the movie-riffing landscape changing since 2008 and the legal gray-area of using public domain media. While Episode 206 is still planned for release, there has been no updates on it and no updates to the series since 2017.

''Incognito Cinema Warriors XP'' -- ICWXP for short -- is a show which [[DirectToVideo debuted on DVD in 2008]], and as of 2011 is becoming a series of [[WebOriginal videos-on-demand]]. Somewhere between SketchComedy, improv, and late-night movie anthology, it shows some of the worst films imaginable -- or at least the kind of crappy [[BMovie B-movies]] an underfunded independent production can afford the rights to -- intercut with framing sequences following the life of Rick Wolf ([[TheDanza Rikk Wolf]]), a member of a zombie-fighting military branch known as CORPS, who takes refuge in the "Cine-A-Sorrow Theater" and is trapped there by [[MadScientist mad scientist]] Dr. Harrison Blackwood (Rob Atwell, a reference to the hero of the 1980s TV show adaptation of ''Series/WarOfTheWorlds''.). During the movies, Rick, Topsy Bot 5000 (Atwell, later Gregory Wyatt Tinnen, LATER later Nick Evans), and Johnny Cylon (Zach Legler), two robots Blackwood created to run the theater, mercilessly [[{{MST}} riff]] on the [[SoBadItsGood comically low quality]], portrayed in "Shadowrama" as they sit in the balcony of a theater showing the movies.

The brain-probing torture-by-movie device he spends most of the five years between in is implied to have something to do with it.

Considered potentially part of it because either AVGN time traveled to get there, thus making the show an alternate future of the Reviewaverse (and making it confirmed as part of the Reviewaverse), or used inter-dimensional travel, therefore making the setting of the show just an alternate universe separate from the Reviewaverse.
