History WebAnimation / ObjectConnects

* Pilot: The first episode is quite possibly the longest ever made for an object show, with a runtime of 1 hour and 12 minutes.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: 20 contestants, a host and an intern can be quite a handful.

Object Connects is an [[ObjectShows object show]] series created by [=PlanetBucket22=], who previously made another lesser-known show called [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnTP0uspdSF4G7Sq2XGkXS0aVlFp1RYt4 Object Crossovers]]. It had been teased back in 2017, 22nd November before the first episode was officially released on 1st January 2018.

* FingerlessHands: The characters with arms have either ball-shaped or mitten hands although on occasion, they'll advert this in some scenes.

* ShorterMeansSmarter: The shorter contestants, such as Thing, Slimey, Lantern and Yogurt Cup, are usually the brainier ones of the cast. Subverted with Bocce Ball

** The biggest example around is Lantern and Journal. Both are the show's happy-go-lucky [[{{CloudCuckoolander}} cloud cuckoolanders]], equally dimwitted, surprisingly competent and talking in [[{{Cloudcuckoolanguage}} utter nonsense]] the characters can't understand most of the time. However, the similarities stop there because Lantern is actually ObfuscatingStupidity in order to remain [[HiddenEvil incognito for his evil schemes]] while Journal's the real deal due to her [[CannotTellFictionFromReality inability to be in touch with reality]]. In terms of intelligence, Lantern is one of the smartest contestants on the show, although he doesn't let the others know, whereas Journal has ''the'' lowest intelligence stats. Journal goes on Nonsequitur tangents about her make-believe world and enacts accordingly. Lantern, on the other hand, speaks in forced, on-the-spot WordSaladHumour to the point of not even knowing what he's babbling on about. Journal has many allies due to switching teams twice and seeing everyone as friends while Lantern antagonizes the whole cast and is stuck with [[TheSpeechless Yogurt Cup]] as his sole, one-sided ally.Overtime, Journal proved to be [[BunnyEarsLawyer a force to be reckoned with]] as Lantern works behind the scenes to [[ManipulativeBastard simultaneously secure his victory and the other teams' downfall]].

When 20 anthropomorphic objects board the same train for a non-specific camp in the middle of nowhere, they find themselves greeted by malfunctioning GameShowHost Jack the slot machine on the competition grounds of ''Object Connects''. After some coaxing, all twenty objects become contestants standing a chance to win $1,000,0000 dollars. How the game works is the contestants are split into 10 teams of two, each pair working together as a team and voting off others until the finale where there can be only one winner. However,
