Unlike his normal reviews, ''Televoid!'' contains somewhat of a plot, and features much [[DarkerandEdiger darker]] fare. From the very beginning of the first episode, it quickly becomes clear that something is very wrong. For one, the setting of the series is a sparsely decorated, pure black room with only a couch, a potted plant, and an old television in it. And, furthermore, the video glitches out when Ian attempts to explain the series at the beginning of the first episode.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The pilot episode, Beat The Clock, lacked much of the OntologicalMystery elements of the series proper and used a different set. Considering comments from the creator and the fact it was removed from the show's playlist on Youtube, it can be assumed it isn't canon.

It only gets stranger and creepier from there.

!!This show provides examples of:
* AmbiguousSituation: The entire premise of the show, but more specifically, all of episode 5. Are the Ians in the two different rooms different people, or the same person but the one in the white room is a dream of the one in the black room? Did Ian get killed by someone or something- most likely whatever was keeping him in the room, [[DrivenToSuicide kill himself]], or [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs let someone or something]] [[SuicideByCop kill him]]?
* AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent: Possibly. The beginning of episode 5 shows a much more cheerful Ian in a white room instead of the previous black, and given the cuts back to the black room at the end of the episode, it's possible this Ian is a completely different person. Maybe.
* BloodFromTheMouth: The Ian in the black room is seen with this at the end of episode 5, following several brief flashes of it on the Ian in the white room that all quickly vanished. In addition, judging by his coughing at the end of the video, it's possible it started in episode 4.
* DeadpanSnarker: Ian retains this quality from his main videos, often making snide remarks at the expense of the characters in the show he's watching.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The pilot episode, Beat The Clock, lacked much of the OntologicalMystery elements of the series proper and used a different set. Considering comments from the creator and the fact it was removed from the show's playlist on Youtube, it can be assumed it isn't canon.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Considering Ian doesn't remember how he got in the room, it's likely this trope is in effect. In addition, some comments from the Ian in the white room in episode 5 indicates perhaps it goes a bit farther than that.
* MindScrew: The entire series is one at times, but especially the ends of episodes, in which glitches disrupt Ian's readings of emails from fans, a character from or like one from the show he just watched comes to interact with him, or it becomes clear his health is deteriorating.
* MoodWhiplash: Frequent and drastic. The show can go from fairly cheerful and funny to horror in a matter of seconds.
* NoFourthWall: Ian is not only fully aware of the audience watching him, but looks forward to their presence and frequently showcases fanart from them and letters emailed in, though said emails aren't always the same between what shows up on screen [[FreezeFrameBonus for a split second]] and what he reads out.
* OminousVisualGlitch: Frequent, and as the show progresses, it starts to seem the glitches are actually physically harming Ian.
* OntologicalMystery: The whole show is one framed with reactions to old media.
* TimeSkip: One seems to be implied between episodes 3 and 4, as at the start of episode 4, Ian's hair has grown much longer and it's clear he's rather sickly, or at the least hasn't slept much.
