I kind of want this to be pot holed from "Seen It!" as a reference to an episode in the New Mr. Peabody and Sherman show, in which a heckler annoys the titular characters, mainly by telling them that their show is stale and repetitive, alongside other attacks.
Not to be confused with Seen It All

Looks like this page needs a bit of clean-up. Lots of examples are just "Show X used plot point/joke Y which they stole from show Z". To be a genuine example, the show has to LAMPSHADE the recycling.

Tolkien was inspired by pulp fantasy.. since when? I haven't been able to find anything about this- and I'm frankly OBSESSED with Tolkien's work.
