4	''Little Big Awesome'' is a show on Amazon Prime, created by Tomi Dieguez and Ben Gruber. It follows two best friends as they have '''awesome''' adventures: Lennon, a little purple “solid” who always wears a green snow cap, and Gluko, a big pink “jelly” who can shift into different forms. Together, they can take on whatever problem the city of Townopolis throws at them! Notably, the show often utilizes multiple presentation styles in each episode, including traditional 2D, CGI, puppets, and even live-action in the case of Mr. Sun and The Moon (and various animals).

7
8	!!Serving up some little big tropes:
9
10	* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: The people on this show come in just about every color of the rainbow.
11	* AnimateInanimateObject: It seems like just about any object in Townopolis can turn out to have a mind of its own- the show’s very first episode (well, [[TwoShorts first two episodes]]) feature sentient satellites, bottle rockets, books, eggs, pudding, and a hammer, and the amount of living objects only grows from there.
12	* BizarreAlienBiology: It’s mentioned in one episode that the sun needs to go to a ''doctor’s appointment'' for... some reason.
13	* BlackComedyAnimalCruelty: It's a sugary kids’ show, but Gluko doesn’t know how to take care of a goat he got as a present, so he ends up doing things like taking it on a pudding slide and feeding it taffy. The goat does not appreciate this.
14	* CelestialBody: Mr. Sun and the Moon are represented as the heads of Weird Al and Aimee Man, superimposed onto their respective entities. When they take a break from their roles to eat together at a space restaurant, the rest of their bodies are shown.
15	* CultureClash: In-universe. Lennon doesn’t quite understand the nuances of a “steenth” birthday, but he’s more than willing to learn.
16	* DullSurprise: The Moon tends to speaks this way, but that’s probably because she’s the cool, collected one compared to the loud, energetic sun.
17	* ExposedExtraterrestrials: Gluko and the other jellies aren’t aliens, but they are a different species from the solids, and they don’t really wear clothes.
18	* FantasticRacism: When Gluko and Lennon go to Jellyopolis, it’s shown that the local Jellies are afraid of solids, so Lennon has to wear a disguise.
19	* HeterosexualLifePartners: Lennon and Gluko are best friends, to the point that when they have to stay apart from each other or the world will explode, they can’t do it.
20	* LetsDuet: Kind of inevitable when you have two famous musicians playing the sun and moon.
21	* LoadsAndLoadsOfRaces: It seems as though the characters in the show can be sentient versions of just about anything. There’s egg people, potato people, frisbee people, etc
22	* MediumAwareness: Averted. No one ever comments on the copious amounts of medium blending as described below.
23	* MediumBlending: Take any given character and they might be 2D, 3D, a puppet, or even an actual person in the case of Weird Al and Aimee Man. Sometimes the characters will switch mediums depending on the situation!
24	* RubberMan: All jellies.
25	* SolarAndLunar: Of the “male sun, female moon” variety. Both entities are played in live-action too, with the energetic sun being Weird Al, and the calmer moon being Aimee Man, and they’re shown to be great friends.
26	* TheStarsAreGoingOut: Not in an apocalyptic sense, but Mr. Sun rolls away when Lennon gets mad at him for burning Gluko. This plunges Townopolis into permanent night, scaring a lot of the citizens.
27	* SugarBowl: The world has '''puppy rain''' and other overly sweet concepts.
