1* TheCastShowoff: Trevor's segment regarding Creator/DonaldTrump [[ItMakesSenseInContext being the first African President]] ended with his doing a brief bit of "click" singing, first showcased [[https://youtu.be/baEiWB2aM9Y in his appearance on]] ''Series/{{QI}}''.
2* {{Corpsing}}:
3** Noah does this while interviewing Seth Rogen, who is beyond funny. He also tends to do this after delivering a joke, even if it's not as funny.
4** During the brief period when Trevor couldn't speak and instead used the corresponders and a text-to-speech female voice to act as his voice resulted in a several cases of this, due to the sheer absurdity of it all; since the jokes were still meant to be told by Trevor, there were moments such as him interviewing a guest with said text-to-speech program or a white corresponder talking about their childhood as a mixed-race boy in Africa.
5** When covering CPAC 2021, Trevor finds the golden Trump statue to be such a RefugeInAudacity that he breaks down laughing a couple times.
6* OfficialFanSubmittedContent:
7** #[=CruzYourOwnAdventure=], in which Trevor invites viewers and the rest of the Internet to put their own spins on a bunch of raw campaign footage that Senator Ted Cruz uploaded to Youtube, with the best ones featured on the show's Tumblr page and Trevor's favorite shown on the show itself.
8** #[=LewisBlackSpitTake=], in which the show's [[http://thedailyshow.tumblr.com/post/143544155903/lewis-black-auditions-to-replace-michael-strahan Tumblr page]] invites folks to play around with green screen images of Lewis and making something fun with it. Plus, the show even posted the footage on Platform/{{Vimeo}} and invited [[https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow/status/725536909120921600 folks to do the same thing.]]
9** #[=LowerThirds=], in which the show's [[http://thedailyshow.tumblr.com/post/143742394163/have-you-ever-looked-at-the-bottom-of-your?xrs=synd_tumblr_050216_tds_81 Tumblr page]] invites viewers to submit screencaps of oddly worded news leads.
10* WrittenInInfirmity: Trevor temporarily lost his voice in December 2018, and his doctors told him to not speak ''at all'' or it could go so bad it'd require surgery. [[{{Determinator}} This didn't stop him from still hosting the show, he just couldn't speak himself]]. The writers instead wrote jokes that Trevor would put through a text-to-speech app on his phone (resulting in him interviewing a guest with a monotone Siri-esque female voice, among other things) and had the corresponders talk in his stead - ''without changing the content of the show'' - resulting in moments such as Desi Lydic, an American white woman, describing her childhood as a mixed-race boy in Africa; all the while Trevor acted silly on the background. [=YouTube=] commenters have given the writers a thumbs up for taking the potetially dangerous illness and managing to turn it into an opportunity for comedy without being offensive about it.
