The other main gimmick of the series is that they all pretend to be either an animated movie or a series on a children's network, and thus most MediumAwareness moments refer to those areas (though, confusingly, there are some references to fanfiction elements, such as chapters).

* FrickinLaserBeams: A number of gadgets in the series have these.
