The Uncanny Valley is the 5th Anniversary special of Channel Awesome. Rather than the usual Massive Multiplayer Crossover, Valley is a collection of five shorts, linked by the theme of how people interact with New Media and hosted by The Webmaster (with constant interference from Thomas, the host of a Meditation Safety show), as played by Nash Bozard and Rob Walker, respectively. It ran from July 23rd to the 28th, 2013.

- "The Reviewers", about a couple of friends who try to make it big as video review show critics, can be seen here. The trailer is here, and behind-the-scenes featurettes are here and here.
