3	'''Focus''': Commercials
4
5	!!This review contains examples of:
6
7	* TheCameo: Greg Sestero appears, reprising his role as Mark from ''Film/TheRoom2003''.
8	* CargoShip: The rise and fall of a life founded on the external benefits of ''milk'' goes on a tangent of personal emptiness, drugs, more drugs, rehab, drugs again, and dying in an alleyway with nothing but (caressing) "the glass of milk that started it all".
9	* DomesticAbuse: The specific focus on looks in the "your milk" commercials leads to an optimistic vision of a handsome man and the Critic adding, "Yeah... he beats me with a shovel, but you could ''skate''' on those abs!"
10	* GoldDigger: Parodying a series of overtly ''shallow'' messages of the "milk" commercials, a young woman winds up on the path of a doomed marriage with a millionaire who "only wants [her] for [her] body," ruins her own life several times over and dies obsessing over milk.
11	* EagleLand: Parodied with the Denny's pancakes commercial.
12	* ManChild: He says this about the Toys "R" Us Kids. He even shows the commercial that showed the kids grown up and noticed how they appeared to be in the very same places as they were in the original commercial several years ago.
13	* MoodWhiplash: A rather cheerful Canadian commercial starts off with a baby shower, and ends with "It's a rape whistle." He exemplifies the uneasiness of it all with a skit featuring him and Malcolm on a water cooler, where the Critic talks about bottled mountain water, while Malcolm casually reveals he has pancreatic cancer, to which the Critic can only react with awkward silence before a text appears at the bottom detailing how 45,220 men get the disease in a year, brought to the audience by the "National Buzzkill Institution of Canada". To bring the point home, he also plays "Blame Canada" from ''WesternAnimation/SouthParkBiggerLongerAndUncut'' over the commercial.
14	-->'''Critic:''' ''(grinning broadly)'' What the fuck, Canada?!
15	* MisterSeahorse: Presumably the Devil at the end of the review.
16	* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Can ''hear'' the narrator for the ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'' tape stumbling over the descriptors.
17	* ObliviousToLove: The Critic theorizes that men can be quite clueless and can't take a hint when a woman isn't interested in them or tell when they are, continuing to go after a woman who turned them down while remaining clueless to women who are interested in them.
18	* OverlyLongGag: Related to MoodWhiplash above, when the Critic learns that the Canadian PSA is about rape, he sits in confused silence with a frozen smile on his face for a long time before calling Canada out.
19	** Also, the Critic's reaction to the American pancakes commercial.
20	* UnusualEuphemism: Anything Rachel!Wicked Witch says, the most noticeable example was "Pop my Ruby Slippers".
