''Cartoon Drive-Thru'', formerly known as ''Cartoon Death Zone'', is a comedy animation Website/YouTube channel from Matt Wilson, the creator of ''WebAnimation/BonusStage''.
Its main series is ''Deadly Space Action!'', a show about a [[DysfunctionJunction dysfunctional crew]] with its captain, [[BadBoss Lemarion]] the [[SpaceX Space]] [[IdiotHero Barbarian]] trying to [[TakeOverTheWorld conquer the galaxy]]. Joining him is Orton, a web designer and resident OnlySaneMan; Saige, Orton's wife, who has various odd hobbies; Bestus, a green "[[{{Jerkass}} jerk with a heart of fist]]" and brute; and Madison, an ex-ApatheticTeacher and the most optimistic of the bunch, acting as the ship's (terrible) mechanic.
Most other videos are from pilots that didn't grow any further. If a trope isn't from a specified work, assume it's from ''Deadly Space Action!''
''Cartoon Drive-Thru'' can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/user/cartoondrivethru here]]. The original channel, which is as of writing the only place to watch older videos, can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/user/CartoonDeathZone here]].

!!''Cartoon Drive-Thru'' provides examples of...
* AwesomeMcCoolName: Lemarion T. Barbarian and Bestus Crash-Boom.
* BigEater: Lemarion orders 30 shipments a tacos a day, which no one else on the ship seems to eat.
* ButtMonkey: WordOfGod is that every character in ''Deadly Space Action!'' has something pathetic about them.
* CoolStarship:
** The rattlesnake-shaped [[MeaningfulName Rattleship]], Lemarion's vessel of choice.
** Which is replaced with the more practically shaped (but still quite cool) Antship at the end of season one.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn:
** Orton is an apathetic StraightMan for the first few episodes, but by Season Two he's just as odd as Saige.
** Likewise, Madison spends her first few appearances as a serious-minded ApatheticTeacher, but becomes an incompetent [[TheCutie cutie]] the moment she joins the crew.
* CouchGag:
** Early episodes of ''Deadly Space Action!'' consist of the same beginning, "In the future, space consists of eight hexagons...", with a witty ending.
** Season two's gag has a newspaper with differing amusing headlines.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Lemarion's reaction to a poorly-spelt insult on the internet is to have the crew duel to the death. [[spoiler:Which turns out to just be a game of laser tag]]
* ExpospeakGag: In the second episode of Deadly Space Action!, as Lemarion is recruiting crew members:
-->'''Lemarion:''' Have you activated the job application transference device?\\
'''Orton:''' "Yeah, I opened Gmail."
* FailedASpotCheck: At one point Lemarion misses a sign the ''size of a moon''. [[spoiler: Said sign had an important warning restricting pasta-based imports.]]
* HappilyMarried: Orton and Saige.
* IdenticalGrandfather / IdenticalStranger: Gregarion the Sea Barbarian is one of these to Lemarion.
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: The first season episodes are of the form ''Extreme ______''. Dropped by the second season.
* IWillShowYouX: In "Now It's Mercenal", the 10th DSA mini:
-->'''Ashley:''' Lemarion's ''my'' target! Get lost!\\
'''Katred:''' Sorry Flash, I have a contract to assassinate our mutual interest.\\
'''Ashley:''' I'll show ''you'' a contract!\\
''[Ashley fires her gun... which indeed proceeds to holographically project a contract of rivalry signed by her and Lemarion]''\\
'''Katred:''' What the gallbladder is this?\\
'''Ashley:''' Always get it in writing. That's Freelance 101.
* KillerGameMaster: Saige.
-->'''Saige:''' Once again you've failed to make it out of my tutorial dungeon.
* MythologyGag: Despite hating ''WebAnimation/BonusStage'' and stating he'd never refer back to it again, it has nonetheless cropped up on the channel.
** When Orton is going through the e-mail applications Lemarion has received, there's an application from a "Stomach King".
** Saige is seen playing Elly in Balloonland.
** Rya (with a Skrillex-esque redesign) was the host of Ask the Cartoon Deathzone Stars.
** Phil co-hosted the E3 Gameshows (along with a redesign/{{Expy}} of Elly), one of the Puzzles of the Week, and was on the list of superheroes Vinyl went through in ''Puzzle Hunters'' (labelled as Superphil, and MIA).
** Craig showed up on Puzzle of the Week #4 to suggest a FoxChickenGrainPuzzle.
** Madison is also implied to be a descendant of Craig, and has his given name as her surname.
** Not on the channel itself, but the SAVESTATES album "Play It!" has a song called Night Run, which is a remix of Evil's stage theme from Robo Rya. Additionally, the ending theme to Gameshow @ E3 2014, called "Game Over, Gameshow", is a remix of "Input Your Initials", one of the ending themes to ''Bonus Stage''.
* OnTheNext: [[ParodiedTrope Parodied]] in season two; the episodes end with an "OnTheNext" with a ''horribly'' inaccurate description.
* PlanetOfHats: The only planet Lemarion has managed to conquer so far is Tutorialis, a planet inhabited entirely by video game tutorial [=NPCs=].
* PreviouslyOn: Also [[ParodiedTrope parodied]], with an episode that begins with a normal one, until a WhamLine is said that definitely never happened.
-->'''Saige:''' There's a werewolf on the ship!
* NightmareFetishist: Saige's secret fetish is being partially digested before being eaten, apparently.
* NonIndicativeName: ''Deadly Space Action'' features only minor character deaths, is a comedy series with not that much action, and a few episodes and a whole arc aren't even set in space.
* RippedFromTheHeadlines: According to Matt, "Planet of the Vapes" (the first of three mini-episodes with a plot revolving around Bestus's former co-worker at a gaming shop) was originally just a generic plot, but timing caused him to tie it in with Gamergate.
* SeenItAll: Apparently Lemarion.
-->'''Lemarion:''' It's just time travel, no offense.
* ShootTheMessenger: [=McKevin=] 27 has a messenger bringing good news killed. But isn't quite sure ''why''.
-->'''[=McKevin=]:''' I'm not... really sure why I did that.
* TalkingToHimself: Every character is voiced by Matt, across all works.
* {{Theremin}}: Used in the season 1 title sequence, for the sci-fi feel.
* TheyKilledKennyAgain: Dice-Roy has died at least four times over the course of the series.
* ThisIsAWorkOfFiction: Yet another [[ParodiedTrope parody]], at the end-of-the-episode copyright disclaimer for season two:
-->''Any similarity to future historical events is entirely intentional, because we totally called it.''
* VillainProtagonist: Considering they're trying to conquer the galaxy.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Monica and Spencer from "Sweet & Sour" are shown hanging out like old friends whenever they aren't competing in business.
* YaoiFangirl: Saige
