Their productions include:

9	* ''Emo Dad''
10	* ''Spoilers''[[note]]Also referred to as ''Spoiler Alert!'' in a video showing the brothers' video production history.[[/note]]

18	They also branched into television production, by adapting the ''React'' concept into a show called ''React to That'' on Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}, which debuted on December 15, 2014, and produced ''Six Degrees of Everything'' for [=TruTV=], which the Fines hosted.

20	In June 2020, the Fine Brothers stepped down from their positions in the company after former cast and crew members, including long-time ''React'' cast member Kennedy Zimet, made [[https://www.insider.com/fine-brothers-entertainment-youtube-rafi-benny-past-workplace-allegations-racism-fbe-2021 allegations of casual racism]] from the Fines and other staff, along with the resurfacing of a 2009 WebVideo/ShaneDawson video in which Benny Fine appeared in blackface. Several members of the company also left in solidarity after the allegations were made.
21
22	In 2021, React Media was acquired by Electric Monster Media. Benny and Rafi Fine are no longer affiliated with the company.
23	----
24	!!Tropes across the Fine Brothers' works (pre-2020) include:
25
26	* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: ''Inappropriate Parents'', ''duh!''
27	* AudienceParticipation: They took submissions for viewers to attempt the ''Fine Time'' theme, and stuck them in later ''Fine Time'' episodes, by which we mean in front of the actual episode with Rafi's "performance" that opens the show still intact.
28	* BondingThroughSharedEarbuds: The focus of the ''Sharing Buds'' segment hosted by Tori Vasquez, where she and several other contributors share earbuds or airbuds and listen to a variety of songs with a particular theme, usually learning about each others' musical tastes and how the songs influence them.
29	* CallBack: The first episode of ''Inappropriate Parents'' has the kids watching ''Emo Dad'' on TV.
30	* CatchPhrase:
31	** ''Spoilers'' alone has ''a ton''.
32	*** "'''[[NoIndoorVoice THAT X IS A BADASS!!!]]'''"
33	*** ''"[[{{Squee}} Aaaawww!]]"''
34	*** "...and live HAPPILY ever AFTER!"
35	*** "''BUT'' some people think it's/it turned out to be fake!"
36	*** [[SarcasmMode "Quality internet video!"]]
37	*** "[Video's premise], ''duh!''"
38	*** "Karma is a bitch!"
39	** From ''Fine Time'': "Picture!"[[note]]Of the crew member mentioned below, and sometimes other stuff too.[[/note]]
40	* ADayInTheLimelight: ''Fine Time'' deliberately brings out a crew member each time.
41	* DoItYourselfThemeTune: ''Fine Time''.
42	-->'''Rafi Fine''': [[HollywoodToneDeaf "It's FINE TIME with THE FINE BROS! What'll we discuss today,]] [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud BLOOP BLOOP!"]]
43	* EmoTeen: ''Emo Dad'' revolves around this archetype.
44	* HilariousOuttakes: In the bonus videos for ''Spoilers''. Also found on their secondary channel.
45	* MotorMouth: ''Spoilers'' has them spoiling as many things as possible in a short amount of time, which leads to this trope.
46	* NerdGlasses: Benny. A ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoKvCksJwhY Fine Time]]'' reveals he may be BlindWithoutEm.
47	* TheOner: ''Spoilers''. "One take, in under X minutes!"
48	* SecondActBreakUp: The premise of ''Last Moments of Relationships''.
49	* ShoutOut:
50	** The "introduce the staff" song on ''Fine Time'' sounds a lot like Eartha Kitt.
51	** ''Spoilers'' sometimes have clunky exposition lampshaded with a [[Film/{{Spaceballs}} "Everybody got that? Good!"]]
52	* SigningOffCatchPhrase:
53	** ''Spoilers'': "Thanks for helping us [[FinishDialogueInUnison SPOIL THE PLANET!"]]
54	** ''Fine Time'': "Hug it out!"
