Series you discovered through the wiki

I found Worm through it.

I didn't even know that Weregeek and Darths And Droids existed before I found this place.

Also sort-of the same for House Of Leaves. I read the page for it (though not the tropes, for paranoid fear of spoilers) and I really want to read it now.

i found DMFA through reading the wiki

JAGS Wonderland and Bliss Stage recently!

My Girl and Minus, plus a lot of other things.

I found The Ten Doctors and Chameleon Circuit

Mainly Discworld and Homestuck.

Oh god thank you TV Tropes. :D

Also A Moment of Peace and the Colour My series. :3

Many an anime or movie.

House Of Leaves, John Dies At The End and technically a couple of webcomics through the forums.

This wiki has brought about a webcomic or 3 upon me:

Planet Zebeth

Free Fall

Friendship is Dragons

Deed of Paksenarrion, Thursday Next and...Dresden Files. Don't look at me like that.

TV Tropes was one of the factors that got me into watching anime back in 2010. The first three I watched (MOHS, Gurren Lagann, Lucky Star) were selected primarily on the basis of their prominence on this site.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Well, I didn't exactly discover the show through the wiki, as I had watched most of the first season and some of the second when it was still on TV. But I wouldn't have gone back and caught up on everything I missed after that were it not for the show's Trope Overdosed-ness.

I'm currently working my way through Katawa Shoujo because of this wiki - it's also my first Visual Novel ever.

Daria, Futurama, Drawn Together, and Animaniacs. I was vaguely aware these things existed, but the wiki actually got me interested. And by "vaguely aware", I mean that I'd heard of Daria and Drawn Together, saw a couple minutes of "Obsoletely Fabulous" and watched about half of "Wakko's Wish".

My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, Danny Phantom, Xaolin Chronicles [didn't even know there a sequel series to Showdown until here]

The Dresden Files and Codex Alera series by Jim Butcher

The new Lemony Snicket series.

And so much more

Puella Magi Madoka Magica

The works of my man Brando Sando

The Dresden Files

Avatar: The Last Airbender

Probably quite a few others that I can't remember at the moment.

I found out about xkcd thanks to the wiki. :)

I found out about Read or Die and Another by hitting the random button. Thanks, TV Tropes.

Oh, I don't even like to touch works that don't have a TV Tropes page for fear that they will be a waste of my time. Except books, not many of those have pages here anyway except for really mainstream, multi-book series and classics. So, many things. Most anime and games, really.

I know I've gotten a lot of right answers on Jeopardy! through bits and pieces I've seen on TV Tropes.

Series-wise, I don't think there's really been anything I've discovered and liked, since most of my work has been on stuff I already know that I like. However, I do know that I discovered TV Trash by doing a wick cleanup for Baby Blues.

NCIS.

Oh man. I watched Koi Kaze because I heard it was a realistic portrayal of the subject matter - I took that as meaning it would end in disaster, which is why I watched it. It didn't, and I was really weirded out. I eventually got around to Moral Orel thanks to this site, too - which I very much enjoyed.

Just think, if I'd never come to TV Tropes I wouldn't know about Homestuck.

• Paranoia Agent (which ended up being my favorite anime ever, thank you TV Tropes!)
• Gunner Krigg Court
• Grave Of The Fireflies
• Now And Then Here And There
