Typical tropes seen in Dan Schneider's shows


At least based on Victorious:
http://danschniedershouldbeashamed.blogspot.com/2012/06/dan-schneider-should-be-ashamed-of.html

Annoying Song Alert: Since this show is a pathetic rip-off of of the pathetic show, Glee, expect there to be annoying songs sung by the cast. Oh wait, I mean Tori and Cast. I kid you not, they actually credit the songs like that. What is the point of all these characters if you are going to glorify one of them?

Great Moments in Bad Song Writing: Obviously, a category to expose the worst lyric in the songs of this show. Since the songs are written by the cast themselves, expect some really bad attempts at songwriting.

The Slap Update to The Head: This show offers Slap updates that are supposed to be exposition, but end up making the viewers look like idiots. This category will show the worst of the worst updates, hopefully per episode.

Bad Acting in Acting School Alert: A customary staple in Dan's television shows are the actors yelling and screaming their lines, or delivering them dully, or just plain bad. This category is dedicated to actors who can't act.

Dan Schneider is Supposed to Be A Vegan: Dan Schneider is a avid food lover for one who is supposed to be following the Vegan path. The guy's humor is mostly based off of food jokes, so this will reference the jokes pertaining to food.

Why Don't You Have A Seat Right There?: Possibly the sickest category of them all, as some of the jokes in this show are disturbingly sexual, keep in mind, this is a live action show with underage child actors and the jokes were written by a team of men in their 30's to 40's.


Hidden in the Closet: Homosexual jokes go here. Remember, this is a kids show, written by adults, acted out by minors.

Dan Schneider is Fo' Rizzle Wit Da Kizzos': Dan Schneider thinks he is cool with the children, a little too disturbing sometimes, and other times, painfully embarrassing when he tries to make up "totally awesome" lingo for idiot children to emulate. This category exposes just how out of touch with the kids he really is.

Continuity Snub: Since Dan Schneider can't be bothered to do a simple edit for his work, many shows contain serious continuity errors. So this will catalogue the biggest mistakes in certain episodes.

Breakin' The Law: In the Schneiderverse, he loves making the characters break the law and get away with felonies. This will portray any questionable law breaking or plain bad parenting, or whatever is questionably moral.

Jail-Bait Of the Episode Award: Out of the four main girls, they all seem to try to out slut each other in each episode. so this category shows who was acting the most pedo-bait of them all in the current episode.

Make it Shine?: A running gag.

Conclusions: A conclusion of everything said above in each post.
