Overly Long Title has been disambiguated


* {{Expy}}: Lowercase h is a parody of the [[AnthropomorphicTypography Algebralien]] species. They showed up out of the blue in episode 3 when someone (69) says they're bored, go by he/they pronouns, have an OverlyLongTitle for their {{Object Show|s}} and want the disinterested objects to compete in it for a million dollars. Record Case is having none of it and asks her contestants to get rid of them which they do.

* OverlyLongTitle: Lowercase h, while parodying generic {{Object Show|s}} [[GameShowHost hosts]], has a ludicrously and needlessly long title for their show, "Battle for One Million Super Inanimate Object Island Entities Extreme 500 Again" (Say that three times fast).

[[caption-width-right:300:Wonder what's his last name?]]
''Obama's Hidden Info Objects'' (Known better by its initials [[FunWithAcronyms OHIO]]) is a [[WebAnimation web-animated]] series created by [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVH6-IC_p_yIqtpVzbqQOGw [=TaxeAndStuff=]]] on 21st July 2021. It's what the OSC commonly referred to as a "Joke Show" which was adapted from Taxe's [[https://comicfury.com/comicprofile.php?url=ohioobjectshow webcomic]] of the [[Webcomic/ObamasHiddenInfoObjects same name]] with major AlternateContinuity.

So as far as ObjectShows go, ten objects were chilling in [[BlankWhiteVoid The White Void]] when all of the sudden, a GameShowHost called Record Case appears out of thin air. She has important information regarding the [[UsefulNotes/BarackObama 44th president]] of the [[UsefulNotes/UnitedStates United States of America]], namely [[ForegoneConclusion Obama's last name]], but wants to give it to a singular object. Thus, the only way to settle this is with a good ol' fashion competition.

The [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFgoabH8ZHR4gS8bSK6QLpxdZofJjVXhu episodes]] can be found on Taxe's [=YouTube=] channel as well as the [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFgoabH8ZHR7liuD-6rRxF97bcm-E8G42 official soundtrack]].
!!Contains the following tropes:
* AdaptedOut: A huge portion of the cast from the webcomic[[note]]Boyfriend FNF, Carlitos, Crafting Mama, Evil Default Discord Profile Picture, Folder, Hand Sanitizer, Netherite Scrap, Profily and Speed Bass Dog[[/note]] were excluded due to a poll deciding on which contestants should be in the show. WordOfGod states that they want to introduce them later in the second season as contestants or [[TheCameo cameos]].
* AdaptationExpansion: The city was only briefly mentioned in the OHIO webcomic but in the web adaptation, it had a whole episode centered on it. The reason why we rarely see other characters besides the main cast is because they lived in the city while OHIO takes place in the empty space that's the rest of the [[BlankWhiteVoid White Void]].
* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Pan Flag and Wii U were dating fairly early on in the webcomic and there was also a ShipTease between 420 and Sweater. Neither relationships are present in the show since the former pair are barely acquaintances while the latter pair never interacted as Sweater was first eliminated.
* ADogNamedDog: Everyone is named after the {{Animate Inanimate Object}}s they are (Record Case is a record case, Paper Baggy is a paper bag and so on).
* AlternateContinuity: The [[Webcomic/ObamasHiddenInfoObjects webcomic]] vastly deviates from the show to the point it can count as a different object show altogether with the same cast. These variations are as followed:
** The webcomic's competition lasted six seasons, including a SpinOff and an epilogue, compared to the show's ongoing one.
** The prize keeps adding on from the initial Obama's last name info with the person who said it and a [=McDonalds=] gift card or are completely different prizes
** Boyfriend FNF, Carlitos, Crafting Mama, Folder, Hand Sanitizer, Profily and Speed Bass Dog were all AdaptedOut while Paper Baggy is a CanonForeigner.
** Pan Flag and Wii U formed an [[TheAlliance alliance]] then later became an OfficialCouple and there's the ShipTease between 420 and Sweater. Their counterparts, however, [[AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul barely acknowledge one another]] especially when Sweater was the first one eliminated and Pan and Wii U are on neutral/unfriendly terms.
** 69 was a lot more competent and less ditzy but is somewhat of a BigBrotherBully to 420.
** Default Discord Profile Picture (DDPFP) became Record Case's Co-Host after winning the first season. He also has an EvilCounterpart named Evil Default Discord Profile Picture.
** Everyone freely swears in the webcomic although it's limited to dropping a few [[PrecisionFStrike F-bombs]]. The show itself is G-rated.
** However, there's only one similarity between the shows and that is they share a challenge and title[[note]]"Twitter Sucks" where the contestants have to uncancelled Record Case from Twitter[[/note]] as their first episode/issue.
* AnimateInanimateObject: As OHIO is an {{Object Show|s}}, the show is populated by anthropomorphic objects and nobody else.
* AnthropomorphicTypography: The inherently-funny number siblings [[Lol69 69]] and [[FourTwentyBlazeIt 420]].
* ArmlessBiped: 420, Paper Baggy, Street Sign and Sweater are all contestants that don't have their arms.
* AudienceParticipation: The show encourages viewers to vote down below in the [=YouTube=] comment section on who they want to eliminate next episode[[note]]Though this only garners around twenty votes within a 48-hour time period much to Record Case's disappointment[[/note]] as well as recommending characters as extras in the official discord server.
* BlankWhiteVoid: The White Void where all the contestants live in. It's not all that empty though since there are shops, a police department and the big city.
* BrickJoke: Space steals a bowl of Deez Nuts in "Going Nuts" for the challenge. The thievery would be brought up two episodes later and becomes Space's downfall when he's arrested by Wii U who then asked Record Case to eliminate him and solve the three-way tie.
* CanonForeigner: Paper Baggy is the only object not to be established in the webcomic, whether AdaptedOut or otherwise.
* CityWithNoName: The city in the BlankWhiteVoid where everybody else resides doesn't have an official name and is just called as it is.
* {{Expy}}: Lowercase h is a parody of the [[AnthropomorphicTypography Algebralien]] species. They showed up out of the blue in episode 3 when someone (69) says they're bored, go by he/they pronouns, have an OverlyLongTitle for their {{Object Show|s}} and want the disinterested objects to compete in it for a million dollars. Record Case is having none of it and asks her contestants to get rid of them which they do.
* ForegoneConclusion: The prize the contestants are competing for is Obama's last name, the joke being Obama ''is'' his last name since this is a rift on the [[CommonKnowledge misconception]] that Obama is his first name when it's actually "Barrack".
* FunWithAcronyms: The show title's acronym spells out the [[UsefulNotes/{{Ohio}} 17th state]] of the [[UsefulNotes/UnitedStates United States of America]].
* GenderEqualEnsemble: After Paper Baggy's debut, the cast is perfectly divided into four females (Chocolate Bar, Paper Baggy, Record Case and Sweater), four males (69, Bobux, DDPFP and Space) and four others (Pan Flag, Street Sign and Wii U are non-binary while 420's has [[AmbiguousGenderIdentity yet to be confirmed]])
* InstrumentalThemeTune: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTCye_U19nA OHIO intro]] is a chipper, electronic tune without vocals.
* MacGuffin: Obama's last name serves nothing more than an excuse for OHIO to happen in the first place. As a joke of a prize as it is, it's highly sought after by all of the contestants.
* MinimalistCast: There's one GameShowHost, eleven contestants and a debuter for the main cast which would [[DwindlingParty slowly dwindle]] as the episodes and eliminations go on.
* MythologyGag: In "Going Nuts", Sweater believes that Street Sign would be the first one eliminated and mock them if they have any final words, only for Record Case to reveal it's actually ''her''. This alludes to the [[Webcomic/ObamasHiddenInfoObjects webcomic]] where Street Sign was the first last-placer of that series.
* NonHumanNonBinary: Pan Flag, Street Sign and Wii U identify as such and are [[AnimateInanimateObject anthropomorphic objects]].
* OverlyLongTitle: Lowercase h, while parodying generic {{Object Show|s}} [[GameShowHost hosts]], has a ludicrously and needlessly long title for their show, "Battle for One Million Super Inanimate Object Island Entities Extreme 500 Again" (Say that three times fast).
* {{Pilot}}: There was an early concept of the show called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEwFVBL3S6g Many Contestants' Perilous Expedition]]" where only 420, Bobux, DDPFP, Street Sign and Sweater competed alongside [[DroppedAfterThePilot pilot-specific]] contestants Cup Stack and Kinemaster Logo and the quality is significantly lower than its future iteration.
* ShoutOut:
** The grand prize and the show's title reference the [[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/obamas-last-name Obama's last name]] meme.
** The second challenge involved getting Record Case a bowl of ''WebVideo/DeezNuts'' from the nut shop.
** Space saying "Aw, fiddlesticks" followed by a "Dang it!" arm motion is reminiscent of the circles' EliminationCatchphrase in ''WebAnimation/BattleForCircle''.
** The record Default Discord Profile Picture's team got in "Into the City" was "[[Music/PanicAtTheDisco Anxiety at the Ballroom]]".
** The speakers 420 used to blast classical music are the assets of [[Webanimation/BattleForDreamIsland The Announcer]].
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: You can distinguish the females from the males and non-binaries by their presence of eyelashes.
