4	''Burger Brawl'' is a [[WebAnimation web-animated series]] created by [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCODmc8aUEfoW_GgU77ylEmQ Gery]] on 27th September 2020. Its slapstick, low-brow humour, [[ClusterFBomb frequent usage of swear words]] and 2D animation [[MediumBlending combined]] with GISSyndrome is what the [[ObjectShows Object Show Community]] calls a joke show. The show had popularized a SubGenre in the fandom called "Friend Shows" where the creator's friends use their Objectsonas[[note]]Definition: An object representing the online persona of an OSC member[[/note]] as the contestants in these types of shows.
5
6	Eighteen objects were minding their own business when suddenly outta nowhere emerged The Burger King, the mascot from a fast-food franchise of the same name. He was apparently summoned to give a lifetime Burger King gift certificate which he then settles by hosting a competition once everyone began fighting tooth and nail over the certificate. Thus began one more contest down the long line of object shows where only one lucky individual can claim the prize of ''Burger Brawl''
7
8	In the recent episodes, Burger King temporarily left the show and was replaced by Gery during the time as well as three debuters, Irish, Vince and Redd, joining the ''Burger Brawl'' roster.

10	Full episodes can be found on the official [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHwc5bLdIUe34mCSEtcLmeCT96m9prdFp playlist]].
11
12	!!Tropes regarding the show are listed down below:
13	* ADogNamedDog: Since the objects are named after their owners' username, this becomes a rare aversion in an object show. Planty and Quicksand are the only ones who play the trope straight.
14	* AerithAndBob: We have a mix of human names, both relatively normal (Nicole, Wes and Cole) and uncommon (Tyce and Razu), basic object names (Planty and Quicksand), [[YouAreNumberSix numbers]] (10 and [=G4J=]) and usernames which hardly qualified for actual names (Mofkipz, Nethr, Hyper, etc).
15	* AlliterativeTitle: The show has two "B"s in its title
16	* AmbiguousSituation: Tyce straight up disappears without being eliminated and with nobody knowing his whereabouts. The only clue as to why he left is that PK seemingly had something to do with this, seen when he [[OverlyNervousFlopSweat nervously sweats]] [[FreezeFrameBonus briefly]] in episode 3. [[spoiler:As it turns out in "I want the weed", PK was a RedHerring since Burger King [[ForcedTransformation transformed him]] into a [[CardboardPal cardboard cutout]] for twelve episodes.]]
17	* AnimateInanimateObject: If this weren't the case, would you consider this an {{Object Show\|s}}?
18	* AnthropomorphicFood: Granted they aren't named accordingly but it still applies.[[note]]Adventures (Pizza), Cole (Chip bag), Logi (Poptart) and Tippers (Fairy Bread)[[/note]]
19	* AnyoneCanDie: And in very humourous ways too!
20	* ArmlessBiped: Five contestants, Khun, Nethr (When hooded), PK, Space and Tippers, play it straight while Planty [[InvertedTrope inverts]] it.
21	* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: The objects and Burger King go to space several times without the lack of oxygen bothering them.
22	* TheBusCameBack: A twofer for episode 14 "I want the weed"
23	** After abandoning the show and remaining cast in episode 9 for [[ItMakesSenseInContext being canceled on Twitter]], Burger King angrily comes back when he discovers Gery took his place as the host of ''Burger Brawl'' and usurps his position once again. Most of the contestants aren’t pleased with his return.
24	** An even longer example with Tyce, the last-placer who mysteriously disappeared in episode 3 and was replaced with a [[CardboardPal cardboard cutout]], when Burger King decides the cutout joke isn't funny anymore and [[spoiler:[[ForcedTransformation transforms him to his sentient, non-cardboard self]].]]
25	-->'''Tyce:''' "It took you ''that'' long to bring me back ?!
26	* BlackBeadEyes: With the exception of Burger King and those with [[MonochromaticEyes other coloured eyes]], everyone sees with standard black eyes without irises.
27	* CanadaDoesNotExist: The opening joke in "Rocking Around the Burger King" has Brigid convincing Cole, a Canadian, about this trope and therefore he shouldn't too. This promptly makes Cole [[FadingAway disappear]] [[RetGone out of existence]] before 10 brings him back.
28	* ClusterFBomb: The swearing on this show can bring ''WebAnimation/ObjectTerror'' to its knees and parallel the likes of ''WebAnimation/ObjectRedundancy''. And it's not just the F-word, "Shit", "Ass", "Bitch" and a plethora of other swear words get as much attention.
29	* ChristmasEpisode: "Rocking Around the Burger King" even though it’s not Christmas-centric and released in January which Hyper lampshades in the after-credits. The challenge focuses on a SnowballFight to the death.
30	* DeathIsCheap: Through the means of Recovery Sauce, nobody can permanently die in ''Burger Brawl''. "My butt's to blame" reveal major cities have their own community-use recovery centers so the threat of premature death is rendered moot across the world.
31	* EjectTheLoser: A special treat for [[spoiler:Space]] where Burger King doesn't teleport the eliminated contestant like he always does but instead throws them into the vacuum of space.
32	* EnsembleCast: The show focuses on the wacky escapades of the sadistic GameShowHost Burger King and his eighteen madcap contestants which slowly increases with the addition of three newbies and tons of extras.
33	* GISSyndrome: Characters such as the Burger King and props are taken from internet stock photos and clip art.
34	* GoodAngelBadAngel: In "Victory Will Be Mine!" there's a skit of Adventures in this.
35	* HalloweenEpisode: Episode 3, appropriately titled "The Night Of Burgerween", where everyone dresses up in costume whilst chased by the murderous Slender Man.
36	* HeroicSacrifice: Surrounded by molten lava without a diamond within reach, the original Dryness jumps into the fiery pit in "A New Seed!" to retrieve one for Nethr so he can be safe from elimination before perishing. Nethr is incredibly distraught over his ally's death and still mourns for him to this day.
37	* InJoke: Some of the show's humor comes from inside jokes Gery and his circle of friends made. While the jokes may be confusing to those unaware of the meaning, it's still as hilarious as the other jokes from the sheer absurdness and audacity.
38	* InstrumentalThemeTune: All the intros are subjected to this. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3HH1REG3EM first one]] is generic techno music, the second is a parody of [[WebAnimation/BattleForDreamIsland IDFB]]'s intro, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdJw-3LWJxQ third]] takes the music from "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCN4Mb4dv4k Puppy Raceway]]" and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVcnooFOUHE fourth]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVcnooFOUHE fifth]] uses original music.
39	* FingerlessHands: The cast, barring Burger King, Louie, and the [[ArmlessBiped armless people]], have ball-shaped appendages in place of actual fingers.
40	* LavaIsBoilingKoolAid: Immediately after Quicksand breaks open a magma chamber, the lava floods the entire cave system in seconds while ignoring actual viscosity or physics.
41	* MediumBlending: Digital [=2D=] animation meets [[GISSyndrome png and stock images]] on this show.
42	* NoHuggingNoKissing: Gery makes it clear that there's no romance between contestants on the show and they definitely should not be shipped because they are all based on real-life people, some of which already in relationships that could come and go in time.
43	* NonGameplayElimination:
44	** Tyce mysteriously disappears between episodes 2 and 3, with a [[CardboardPal cardboard cutout]] replacing him, and Razu had to take his place in spite of their elimination just last episode. This is due to a [[RealLifeWritesThePlot real-life]] [[RoleEndingMisdemeanor undisclosed controversy]] with the real person based on Tyce had to be written out of the show for a while. Even after his [[TheBusCameBack unceremonious return]], Tyce wasn't admitted back into the competition considering Razu got eliminated later on and had to claim their previous place of dead-last.
45	** Tippers is caught in a surprise double-elimination after her son went too far insulting the host and ended up taking the fall for him since she got the second most votes.
46	* SharePhrase: Expect Cole to be called a "[Fucking] Airhead" by everyone without prompt. Hyper has also been insulted as a "weeaboo" by both hosts.
47	* ShoutOut: Enough to fill up its [[ShoutOut/BurgerBrawl very own page]].
48	* SpinOff: Following BFDI's example, there are shorts called "Burger Brawl Mini" that are unrelated to the show as they focuses on a different cast. As of 2022, there's been a total of three episodes (That was unfortunately [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes privated from Gery's channel]]) and is currently on indefinite hiatus.
49	* SuddenAnatomy: When Nethr gets unhooded in "I listen to the toy!", it's revealed he has arms and a mouth all along which remained that way for 4 episodes.
50	* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: How does one distinguish between the guys and girls in an object-driven cast? By adding eyelashes onto the female characters.
