''Tedious Tales of Sodor'' is an fan-made parody series of WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends created by fan-user ''[[https://www.youtube.com/@BiscuitCatProductions Biscuit Cat Productions]]''. Being a {{Machinima}} filmed within the video game [[https://www.trainzportal.com/ Trainz Simulator]], the series loosely adapts the stories of Thomas navigating his brand-new life on the Island of Sodor, all while Main/TheNarrator plays god and [[Main/InteractiveNarrator intervenes with the plot of any given story]]. As you can imagine, hilarity and chaos typically ensues.
Originally, ''TTOS'' was merely the [[Main/ContinuityReboot continuity reboot and replacement]] of Biscuits' previous Thomas series, ''Satirical Tales of the NWR''. While the series has the same basic premise of it's predecessor, it's very much it's own separate entity by this point, with a totally different art-style, lore, plotline, and voice cast.
At first glance, ''TTOS'''s overall tone and it's more mature, adult, comedically-driven stories may be typically expected from [[TheAbridgedSeries MANY other fan works of this variety]], yet the episodes and shorts containing do a fairly decent job of telling a more serious, overarching story admist all of the [[Main/BreakingTheFourthWall Forth Wall-breaking]] and [[Main/LampshadeHanging Lampshading]] to the Thomas franchise at-large.
