Pretty cool, brah.
The vlog is off to a good start, but I have a question. Are we going to see more than one Administrator? I get the feeling the character in the first episode doesn't run TV Tropes alone In-Universe, but is the representative for an Omniscient Council of Vagueness.
"But... nobody told me I needed a signature!"I thought that was a representation of Fast Eddie.

Well, it's obvious how'd they do Executive Meddling. An interview with the Administrator.
Also, all recursion = Show Within a Show and so does Schrodinger's Box.
Desperately needs a tripod for the camera.
That's Feo . . . He's a disgusting, mysoginistic, paedophilic asshat who moonlights as a shitty writer—Something AwfulMODERATELY AMUSING.
Doghead does not grok the reasons for jitter cam.

Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyOh my God, this is awesome. I love it. You guys did a pretty good job.
Bite my shiny metal ass.Think about it: they are doing a show about how they tried to make a show, so it is a show within a show. However, the title of the episode is show within a show, so the show that they make, is actually a show within a show. Thinking about that hurts....
Go play Kentucky Route Zero. Now.Nice cinematography, btw.
Pretty funny, guys. Hope the next one is just as good.
On the odd chance the creators are reading this thread: was there any method to how you ended up picking this trope? Did you just hit "random" and take the first thing that came up, or was this chosen because it was easier to demonstrate (compared to, say...This Looks Like a Job for Aquaman).
You know what I'd love to see from these guys? Thirty Xanatos Pileup. It would be hilarious to see what they come up with.

"War doesn't prove who's right, only who's left." "Every saint has a past, every sinner has a future."Show Within a Show was picked because it is the premise of the series. I figured it would be a good introduction. Every week is going to be part explanation of the trope, and part demonstration of the trope.
Will this just be a Trope of the Week show or will it have a TropeArc?
Get back to us after #3 with any questions about the having of arcs, should you have any questions of that sort at that time.
Dang. That may have been the best non-answer ever!
Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyFYI, one of the top comments on the Youtube account (after Comment Snob got done) was asking if TV Tropes had a page on it.
Fight smart, not fair.Pretty great stuff, if I do say so myself. Always good to see fellow Tropers taking it that step further.
Against all tyrants.Aussies are up!
The Aussies do so loves them some You Tube. It is actually a little embarrassing, how much they do.
Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyI actually woke up early this (Monday) morning and saw it telling me that it was still Sunday. Took me a little bit of time to realise that it was actually Monday.
Timezones are funny sometimes.
Against all tyrants.It isn't Sunday anywhere in the world anymore, is it?
The only thing to do is ... change the message!
Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyIts still Sunday in my heart.
Forever liveblogging the AvengersStill Sunday in Alaska and the Aleutians; Hawaii, Samoa, and the French Polynesian islands.

It might be Monday, Sarah. Get somebody to do the math for you.

Because we need a Web Original thread for our new Official V-Log show (and because I'm a huge brownnose today).
So, Echo Chamber, thoughts so far?
