''The Uncanny Valley'' is the [[MilestoneCelebration 5th Anniversary special]] of Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses. Rather than the usual MassiveMultiplayerCrossover, ''Valley'' is a collection of five shorts, linked by the theme of how people interact with NewMedia and hosted by The Webmaster (with constant interference from Thomas, the host of a Meditation Safety show), as played by [[WebVideo/WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou Nash Bozard]] and Rob Walker, respectively. It ran from July 23rd to the 28th, 2013.

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:Dragonbored]]
* AscendedFridgeHorror: Jimbroth mentions a couple times how quite a lot of his friends die in-game. [[spoiler:Oh, and he's programmed to feel pain.]]
* AmbiguouslyGay: Taylin. Which, if he is, makes him a PetHomosexual and BlackBestFriend TwoferTokenMinority.
* AnAesop: Real life, rather than {{Escapism}}, is more exciting than you think it is.
** DoubleAesop: Value what you have, otherwise you will push it away, often to someone more deserving.
** SpaceWhaleAesop: Some scenes qualify. For example, the scene where Carl brags about teaching Jimbroth to cook through gameplay (rather than spending the same amount of time ''actually'' learning how to do it) is actually a pretty good message about how to use time effectively. However, there's a similar scene later where Jimbroth presents Jessica with an amulet which he and Carl earned from grinding through a dungeon. Carl [[BraggingRightsReward found the amulet useless after grinding for so long for it]], but Jimbroth tells a heart-wrenching story about how he earned it after many of his friends died and vowed only to give it to the pure of heart. That pushes the scene into this trope because there is no way Carl could have gotten such an amulet, under the conditions he did, ''except'' through a videogame, and Jimbroth's own personal connection to it are (at best) part of a personal story that would not exist without said game. Somewhat downplayed, in that ''Jimbroth'' didn't know that.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Carl wished for life to be more like Skyguard. Cue Jimbroth.
** [[spoiler:In the end Carl takes this to its next step and wishes to live in the game world. Therein he repeatedly and painfully dies.]]
* BlandNameProduct: Skyguard is clearly meant to be ''[[TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]]'' (they are even using modded footage from Skyrim), The Aura Scrolls is meant to be ''Franchise/TheElderScrolls'', and Mephesto is meant to represent ''Creator/{{Bethesda}}'', the creators of the game and the franchise. Heck, the title of the short, ''Dragonbored'' is based off of the name of the PlayerCharacter of the real game, the Dragonborn. Additionally, Skyguard was released on the [[PlayStation3 PSZ]].
* BreadEggsMilkSquick: Jimbroth believes women are bold, beautiful, angelic, and occasionally property to be sold as men see fit.
** The goose that Jimbroth prepares for dinner is free-range, local, and [[spoiler:was cleaned in the toilet]].
* BrickJoke: When Carl discovers a head in the oven, he throws it out the window before his girlfriend sees. Later a fisherman finds it.
* TheCameo: TheLastAngryGeek appears as an Mephesto Games employee in TheStinger.
* CassandraTruth: When Carl tries to tell Jessica about bringing Jimbroth into the world, she is dismissive, as she thinks he is bragging about his in-game accomplishments.
* CloudCuckoolander: What Jimbroth comes off as in the real world. All things considered, in his world he would have been completely normal.
* {{Cuckold}}: The protagonist creates a barbarian character in a thinly-veiled ''Videogame/{{Skyrim}}'' spoof that gets brought into the real world and begins to live his life better than the videogame-obsessed protagonist. This includes being a better companion to his girlfriend, Jessica. Highlights include [[spoiler:flat out telling her to her face that he considers women to be property (to which she responds "ICanChangeHim"), sweet talking her into fetching beers for a party (while o she's naked from the waist down), and changing her from a staunch feminist into someone who likes being won over by a more dominant man.]] There's even the standard cuckold trope of the replaced boyfriend being effectively feminized to cement his utter defeat.
* TheDanza: Carl is played by Uncle-Yo, who's real name is Karl Custer.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: The boss takes an instant liking to Jimbroth after the latter tackles him to defend Carl, and shows complete disdain for the rest of the office when they freak out about it. [[MenAreTough "We're men, this is ''what we do'']]. He gave me a challenge, and we fought."
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: Jimbroth has an understandably medieval view on moral issues. [[spoiler:He grows out of them.]]
* EverythingIsRacist: The boss gets the wrong idea about Jimbroth calling Carl his master and tells him he should rise up. Bear in mind Jimbroth is white.
* FishOutOfWater: Jimbroth.
* HateSink: Carl is everything wrong with certain gamers, and the story makes it quite clear that it's ''those'' qualities, not his addiction or Jimbroth, that are ruining his life.
* HaveAGayOldTime
-->'''Jimbroth:''' If men taking off our shirts and singing songs from the Land of Fae is gay, then gay men are we!
* HereWeGoAgain: The main story begins with Carl getting a call from Taylin while playing (to remind him of an important assignment and asking how he feels because he allegedly was ill). Ends with Jimbroth getting a "call" from Carl because [[spoiler:he keeps dying in-game and [[WhoWritesThisCrap demands to know, who the hell the player is]]. Turns out that Jimbroth lent the game to Taylin, who didn't came to work because he is ''allegedly'' sick. "[[LampshadeHanging I suspect, that might not be true.]]"]]
* IAteWhat / SecretIngredient: Carl and Jessica enjoy the goose that Jimbroth has prepared for them...[[spoiler: until he reveals that the goose was cleaned in their toilet, giving Jessica food poisoning as a result.]]
* IronicHell: [[spoiler:Carl wishes he could be a character in Skyguard's world. It's granted...as the caricature of his girl...without any of Jimbroth's skills....and as Taylin's character.]]
* ICanChangeMyBeloved: Jessica's response to the {{Squick}} part of the aforementioned BreadEggsMilkSquick, although she was possibly teasing Carl at the time. [[spoiler: The ending heavily implies this was a rousing success.]]
* ImplausibleDeniability: Carl claims the huge breasts on his female avatar are the only option immediately after adjusting them from the default to as large as possible, which Jessica calls him on.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Carl becomes convinced that finishing the game with a different character will send Jimbroth home.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Carl's general stance on everything. Lampshaded by Jessica, when he complained about the ''strip'' game, which she freely admitted wasn't her brightest idea.
-->'''Carl''': When did you ever strip for me?
-->'''Jessica''': Two weeks ago.
* JerkAss: Video game addiction is the ''least'' of Carl's bad qualities.
* JustOneMoreLevel: Just one of Carl's problems.
* KarmaHoudini: Carl points out the list of offenses that should have gotten Jimbroth arrested, though clearly that never happens, either through plot convenience or convincing people through his charisma to be on his side.
* KleptomaniacHero: Jimbroth remembers a time when he put a bucket over someone's head and stole everything in sight.
* ListOfTransgressions: Carl rattles off all the crimes Jimbroth committed by stabbing a schoolbus' tires, threatening the driver with a sword, bringing a kid home, and giving her alcohol.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfLoading: Skyguard is mentioned to have this problem just like the real ''Skyrim''.
* MeanBoss: [=LeBron=]... although mainly to Carl.
* MeaningfulName: Mephesto Games made a product that threw all of Carl's negative qualities into sharp relief, and sent him through a test of moral fiber and character [[spoiler:which he ultimately fails]]. In most versions of {{Faust}}, Mephistopheles made a deal with the eponymous protagonist that does much the same.
* MeaningfulRename: Jimbroth changes his name to "Jimbo" after [=LeBron=] tells him to disregard Carl as his master and be his own person, citing Jimbroth as his "slave name."
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Jimbroth manages to make "Get me a Big Mac from [=McDonalds=]" sound like an epic adventure.
** He also considers Lebron calling him Jimbo to be a title of great honor.
* NewMediaAreEvil: Subverted. The guys who made ''Skyguard'' seem pretty amoral and sleazy, and are named [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Mephesto]]...and then we meet Carl, and it is made very, very clear that he was already a self-centered and vain individual before his video game addiction really hit him hard.
* NiceGuy: Apart from his ValuesDissonance, Jimbroth is a pretty sweet guy. Certainly more so than [[JerkAss Carl]].
* NotDistractedByTheSexy: Carl was so into playing ''Skyguard'' that he failed to realize when his girlfriend came into the living room wearing only a thong.
* PacmanFever: A pointed aversion, many of the terms are CaptainErsatz versions of ''Skyrim'' names, such as The Aura Scrolls, Skyguard, and Jimbroth making reference to Sovnheim as the afterlife. However, the jokes about frostbite spiders, dwarven traps, and soul gems show the creators clearly know about ''Skyrim''. Played straight with other characters aside from Jimbroth and Carl, justified since presumably none of them have played the in-universe game the concepts are taken from.
* PlayingAgainstType: DougWalker, who normally plays subby, impulsive {{jerkass woobies}}, plays a medieval MartyStu FishOutOfWater hero.
* PortingDisaster: InUniverse. All this apparently happened as a result of an unexplained glitch in the [=PSZ=] version of ''Skyguard''.
* QueerPeopleAreFunny: The HaveAGayOldTime scene, and Taylin having a mancrush on Jimbroth.
* RealMenCanCook: Jimbroth can cook because Carl spent hours leveling his cooking instead of actually learning how to do it himself.
* RightBehindMe: Carl's boss speaks badly about him to another employee, who tries to point out that Carl's right behind him. Subverted in that he was aware of it.
-->'''[=LeBron=]:''' I know he's behind me.
* ShoutOut: When Brad Jones posted it on his site, the description he gave for it was: [[Film/RaisingArizona "When an ex-con and an ex-cop can't have a child together, they help themselves to one of another family's quintuplets, causing their lives to become more complicated than they anticipated!"]]
** In the film itself, Jimbroth says, "By the stars of [[Film/BedknobsAndBroomsticks Asteroth]]". And when Carl forces everyone to leave, Jessica almost leaves, until Carl catches her, and she responds with [[Film/MaryPoppins "Good luck, guv'na!"]]
** There are a lot of shout outs to game mechanics present in ''Skyrim.'' For example if you put a bucket on someone's head in ''Skyrim'' you are out of their line of sight and therefore you can [[JustForPun rob them blind.]] Jimbroth mentions that he did this once.
** [[TheLegendOfZelda "It's dangerous to go alone. Take this."]]
** The scene where Jimbroth gives Jessica the amulet is a gender-reversed version of Arwen giving the Evenstar to Aragorn in ''[[Film/LordOfTheRings Lord of the Rings]]''
** In TheStinger the Mephesto Games employee mentions a bug that [[BackToTheFuture sent one of the playtesters back in time to year 1885.]]
* ShowTheirWork: Rob Walker is an avid player of ''Skyrim'', as seen by the many in-jokes made throughout.
* StayInTheKitchen: At the drunken strip ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'' game, Jessica gets creeped on by the guys and is told to get them a beer. The other female guest does not get this treatment.
* StrawFeminist: Jessica calls one of the male friends a chauvinist for expecting her to go get him a drink, but gigglingly tries to comply with Jimbroth's request of the same.
* TakeThat: Several to Bethesda and their method of testing games, as well as [[WorldOfWarcraft "World of WarCrack"]].
* TheyJustDidntCare: InUniverse this is how the game company treats supernatural problems the games generate. They'll just patch it later.
* TrappedInTVLand: [[spoiler:Carl becomes trapped in the game [[GenderBender as the lady character he was creating.]]]]
* TheUnfrozenCavemanLawyer: Jimbroth's medieval thinking surprisingly makes him a good businessman.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: We never find out what happened to the little girl who Jimbroth "rescued" from a school bus and got drunk on hard cider. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Carl when he belatedly remembers her.
* XMeetsY: In their Anime Midwest interview, Rachel and Malcolm said Doug's short was "''VideoGame/{{Skyrim}}'' meets ''Film/OfficeSpace''" and not connected to the site at all.
* YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe: Jimbroth talks like this.
* YouDidntAsk: Jimbroth's reaction to Carl accusing him of not telling him about [[spoiler:in-game pain]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Dragged In]]
* AliensStealCable: Or Internet in this case.
* AliensStealCattle: Just [[spoiler:cats]], because they are much [[CutenessProximity cuter]].
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor / DidntThinkThisThrough: [[spoiler:The aliens want all the cats because the cute videos have won them over, only to find out that those videos omit all of the more trying aspects of cat ownership. Which could have been avoided if they had checked Wiki/{{Wikipedia}} or at least a pet care site.]]
* BlandNameProduct: The news stations: [[Main/CableNewsNetwork CZZ]], [[Main/FoxNewsChannel Box News]], and [[Creator/TheBBC BCC News]].
* TheCameo: WebVideo/{{Phelous}}, [[TheCinemaSnob Brad Jones]], ObscurusLupa, and Mike Dodd appear as VoxPops interviewees during a news broadcast.
* {{Crawl}}: One runs under the bottom of the CZZ news broadcast.
* CunningLinguist / ADegreeInUseless: Mr. Donavin. He can't use his doctorate anywhere, so he works at the vet.
* CuteKitten: The aliens want ''all'' of them!
* DigitalPiracyIsEvil: The government believes this so much that they put a copyright/"do not steal" notice before the FirstContact video. It gets leaked of course.
* FirstContact: This is a sad sad story of one.
* HurricaneOfPuns: Most NewsBroadcast consist of [[spoiler:cat]] puns of varying painfulness.
* TheInternetIsForPorn: But the aliens care nothing for it.
* LiteralMinded: The MIB[=s=].
-->'''Mr. Donavin:''' Look. I just want to know what I'm getting into.
-->'''MIB:''' A white, unmarked SUV.
* TheMenInBlack: Two come for Mr. Donavin, when the government needs his assistance.
* NewsBroadcast: Most of the story is told through these.
* PityTheKidnapper: Well given [[spoiler:the world's cats under thread of world annihilation]], but the aliens clearly didn't realize what they were getting into.
* ReplacementGoldfish: Several people get some kind of replacements for their missing [[spoiler:cats]]. Mostly plushies and such. Phelous even a new [[spoiler:cat, which gets taken the second they are off camera]].
** The internet also tried to find something to compensate the loss... [[spoiler:the cute {{Furry|Fandom}} videos. You're welcome.]]
* ShoutOut: When Brad Jones posted it on his site, the description he gave for it was: "A top Russian ballet dancer, who defected to the US, crash lands in his own country. The KGB throws him in Siberia to live with an American expatriate and his Russian wife as a way to convince him to stay in his homeland", the premise of the fairly obscure 1985 movie "White Nights", starring Mikhail Baryshnikov and, in a secondary role, Helen Mirren.
** Also, the vet clinic Mr. Donavin works for is called [[StarTrekTheOriginalSeries "No Tribble At All"]].
*** On [[StarTrekEnterprise another Trek note,]] one patient is Mr. Archer, who fed his pet too much cheese.
* ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman: So you have a degree in [[ADegreeInUseless xenolingusitics]] (minoring in {{Mac Guffin}}ism)... There is this FirstContact transmission no one else can decode. You are our only hope!
* VoxPops: See TheCameo, above.

[[folder:The Reviewers]]
* AccentuateTheNegative[=/=]CausticCritic: Rickhead's reviews of web videos are extremely harsh. Even towards a video of [[TeamPet Lloyd.]]
* AffectionateParody: Jeff's series is one of plot-based review shows, especially ''AtopTheFourthWall''.
* BlasphemousBoast: Andy explicitly wishes to be big as the Messiah. {{Subverted}} in that the "Messiah" he was talking about is an internet personality [[NamesTheSame with that same name]].
* CanonImmigrant: Space Lancer Steve originated as a joke by Linkara about The Cinema Snob not having an analogue to Ensign Munroe
** Also, the character of the Messiah originated in WebVideo/{{The Cinema Snob}}'s review of ''The Tormentors'', and later made appearances in his reviews of ''Film/{{Maniac}}'' and ''The Helter-Skelter Murders''.
* ClassicalMovieVampire: Andy's online persona, Count Thomas Howl.
* ConstructiveCriticism: Rickhead invokes this, although it's clearly not, and he's saying it just to justify his trolling.
* DeadpanSnarker: Nicholas Pike.
* FormerChildStar: Brad Jones's character, Nicholas Pike, was the star of the 1989 movie ''[[TheWizard The Genius]]''.
* JerkAss: The Rickhead.
* NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity: In-universe, Jeff feels this way towards negative comments on online videos.
* ThePilot: The short serves as a potential pilot for a new series by Brad Jones and his crew.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Rickhead. Because {{GIFT}}.
* PrecisionFStrike: Andy messes up his recording of an episode as Count Thomas Howl and does this.
* ShoutOut: Once again from Brad Jones, his description of the short is: "A coke head cop is brought out of suspension in order to trail a local prostitute who may become the next victim of a serial killer known as The Scalper", the plot of ''Midnight Heat'', a short film he made in 2007.
** Count Thomas Howl is a pun on the actor C. Thomas Howell.
* StealthPun: Hmm, what rhymes with "Rickhead" that also fits his personality?
* StylisticSuck: Jeff's NoBudget show is this, even for an internet review show.
-->"Greetings, earthling! I'm Lord Penis from the planet Ass!"
* TakeThat: Rickhead defending his trolling as "criticism" is one towards the general HateDumb attitude in regards of their venomous insults.

* TheCameo: Webvideo/DiamandaHagan.
* ComputerEqualsMonitor: [[SubvertedTrope No, it doesn't]]. See IsThisThingStillOn for details. (Also [[WhatAnIdiot someone making a living of web videos should know better]].)

* ShoutOut: Both MikeJ and FilmBrain give these to two of the more popular fan communities; TGWTG Secrets and The Secret Treehouse.

* PublicServiceAnnouncement: It's a documentary about some dangers of internet use.
* RealitySubtext: After talking about how the internet can lead to [[MoralEventHorizon death threats sent to a person's home]], it cuts to WebVideo/ObscurusLupa. [[http://obscuruslupa.tumblr.com/post/44695996579/life-goes-on This is the reason why this is so significant]].
