4''The Object Show'' is, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin well]], an {{Object Show|s}}, made by Kaie Goodman (better known by his online handle [=CosmicToons=]), which was made with ''Platform/GoAnimate''.
5
6Starite, the main host, had established a competition show in which original competitors and contestants from other object shows and franchises compete to win contests and avoid elimination.
7
8The first episode of the series is "[[https://youtube.com/watch?v=SoB3A4dm9_M Gooey Eats Burger]]", about Gooey eating Burger, although the episode does not have a contest taking place.

10The show was [[{{Cancellation}} canceled]] around 2014 to 2015, and the creator Kaie Goodman considers the creation of the show OldShame. However, he has recycled the character Doodle Board for future use by him.
11
12However, on May 30, 2023, the show returned only as a joke show, Season 1 concluded properly on August 2, 2023, with "[[https://youtube.com/watch?v=eAvslwzpC5M That's All, Folks!]]", with Doodle Board being the winner of The Object Show and allowing everyone onto earth.
13
14On December 23, 2023, the joke series returned with an announcement for Season 2 which premiered on January 16, 2024, with "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiTZHGpf-hY Welcome Back to Objecury]]".

20!!''The Object Show'' provides examples of:
21* ADogNamedDog: Many of the characters are named after their object. For example, AJ is apple juice, Doodle Board is a doodle board, and Shovel is a shovel. However, among the cast, there is Gooey, whose species has been left ambiguous.
22* AnimateBodyParts: Ear is an [[ADogNamedDog ear]].
23* AnimateInanimateObject: As this is an object show, a whole cast of anthropomorphic objects are to be expected.
24* AnthropomorphicFood: AJ, Apple, Burger, M&M, Skittle, Jelly Donut, Potato, and Pizza are food contestants who are portrayed as anthropomorphic.
25* ArmlessBiped: There are some characters in this show who do not have arms, including Nickel, Puffball, Rubber, M&M, and Skittle.
26* BigBad: Gooey is the closest to a villain in this show. She is the most prominent character in the show, she ate Burger, she turned everyone into Greeny, and she escaped the Cardboard Box of Losers, where all the eliminated contestants are sent. However, any evil she does backfires, as Starite fixes up anything she does. She acted less villainy in season 2.
27* CartoonCreature: It is ambiguous on what species Gooey is. Though, she could be either Goo or Snot, she was later to be revealed to be a piece of rubber that is supposed to resemble snot in the fifth episode of season 2.
28* EjectTheLoser: Anyone who is eliminated is teleported to the Cardboard Box of Losers, the elimination chamber in this series.
29* EvilCounterpart: [=DarkBoard=] is the evil version of Doodle Board, and he is willing to steal the immunity coins and cancel the show. In the joke series, there was a contest about confessing to him about why he wanted to do his will.
30* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin:
31** The show is called ''The Object Show'', as it is an [[ObjectShows object show]].
32** The episode "Gooey Eats Burger" involves the antagonistic Gooey eating Burger.
33* GuestFighter: Puffball from ''WebAnimation/BattleForDreamIsland'', Nickel from ''WebAnimation/InanimateInsanity'', Maxwell and Lily from ''VideoGame/{{Scribblenauts}}'', Qoo, the mascot of a Japanese drink, Mr. Bill, and Pac-Man are contestants competing in the show. Although Gumby and Edwin never debuted after they exploded from the Pac-Man ghosts in the first season. Gumby however made it to appearing in Season 2 along with Mr. Hands and Sluggo from Mr. Bill, Yellow Face from BFDI, Freddy Fazbear from Five Nights at Freddy's, and Ms. Pac-Man
34* ShortRunners: Originally had seven episodes before it was canceled. It was then revived nine years later and Season 1 ended after 13 episodes, and Season 2 will have 15 episodes.
35* StaringContest: The challenge in episode 5 is a staring contest, and whoever blinks is out of the challenge.
36* SyntheticVoiceActor: As expected with [=GoAnimate=], a majority of characters in the show are voiced by Text-To-Speech, especially in the joke series. Eventually subverted in Episode 7 Part 1, where the characters were voiced by Kaie Goodman.
37* YouAreGrounded: Averted. The first episode “Gooey Eats Burger” has many similarities with ''Platform/GoAnimate'' grounded videos, as Gooey misbehaves and Starite punishes her, with similar dialog as to that of a grounded video. However, Gooey is not grounded, but rather is eliminated. In the revised description of the first video, Goodman said that the first episode wasn’t intended to be the first episode, and it was originally intended to be just a grounded-esque video.
