15	** '''Capsule Pitch Description:''' Psychedelic horror web series.

18	* Mike Nelson's ''Podcast/RiffTrax'' (2006) / Joel Hodgson's ''WebVideo/CinematicTitanic'' (2007)
19	** '''Capsule Pitch Description:''' ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' alumni do their best to Hollywood's worst
20	** '''Implementation:''' ''Podcast/RiffTrax'' started the post-[=MSTie=] [[AlternateDVDCommentary film commentary]] revival by making audio-only downloads that take aim at more mainstream films than [=MST3K=] had access to. Soon after, Mike's predecessor started his own similar project, but as [=DVDs=] that stick more closely to the original formula: more obscure (and license-able) B-movies, silhouettes in front of the films, and sketches.
21	----
22	* ''WebVideo/SuperMarioLogan'' (2007) / ''WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64Bloopers'' (2011)
23	** '''Capsule Pitch Description:''' [=YouTube=] Long-running parodies of the ''[[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]]'' franchise with adult oriented comedy, even though the creators of the respective series were just entering their adolescence at the time of the series’ debut. Both series would eventually deviate away from their Mario roots and eventually introduce original characters.
24	** '''Implementation:''' SML is live action with plushes and puppets, while ''[=SMG4=]'' uses ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'' and VideoGame/GarrysMod. Also, [=SMG4=] would eventually become more serious, with the series’ tone being akin to a shounen series, while ''SML'' would eventually become a sitcom-like series. Also, due to SML's run-ins with [=YouTube=] and Nintendo, ''SML'' would have to remove any trace of its Mario roots entirely, while ''[=SMG4=]'' still hasn't received such run-ins yet.
25	----

30	* ''WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay'' (2010) / ''WebVideo/GameGrumps'' (2012)
31	** '''Capsule Pitch Description:''' Two gamer friends LetsPlay video games in a comedic fashion more than for sheer skill or information.
32	** '''Implementation:''' ''Game Grumps'' would have ten minute videos of a video game playthrough, though it is rare for them to actually finish a game. The ''Best Friends'' began with weekly episodes dedicated to showing highlights from. Later the ''Best Friends'' moved on to full [=LPs=] and moved to a daily schedule, though they still produce the occasional fifteen minute video highlight video about one game like the old days. Both shows have spinoffs in similar veins, with the players going against each other (''Super Best Friends Brawl'', ''Friday Night Fisticuffs,'' and ''Saturday Morning Scrublords'' compared to ''Game Grumps VS'') and [[AnimatedAdaptation Animated Adaptations]] (''Two Best Friends: Funtime Adventures'' and ''Game Grumps Animated''). Also, ''Two Best Friends Play'' is a Machinima affiliate while ''Game Grumps'' is a Creator/{{Polaris}} affiliate.

34	* ''WebVideo/RebelTaxi'' (2010) / ''WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter'' (2013)
35	** '''Capsule Pitch Description:''' Animation-focused {{Video Review Show}}s with hosts who don't display their faces.
36	** '''Implementation:''' The two shows are near opposites with a TechnicianVsPerformer dynamic when put together. Pan Pizza ([[IAmNotShazam host of Rebel Taxi]]) is very easygoing, jokey, and puts more effort in going [[SetBehindTheScenes behind the scenes]]. Mr. Enter is far more {{Byronic\|Hero}}, straightforward, and astute in his critique, yet ''very'' opinionated and occasionally prone to flying off the handle.
37	----
38	* ''WebVideo/MidnightScreenings'' (2011) / ''Sibling Rivalry'' (2011)

44	** '''Implementation:''' Gnoggin once uploaded 3 videos attempting to invalidate some of Creator/MatPat's theories. They also have a notorious FandomRivalry with each other, with their audiences tending to attack each other for perceived similarities[=/=]ripoffs.
45	----
46	* ''WebAnimation/FiveNightsAtFreddysTheStories'' (2015) / ''WebAnimation/FiveNightsAtFreddysForgottenEvents'' (2019)
